• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    New member, thanks for having me - and where's a good place to get these things?

    If you have a princess auto store in your area you can get the copper washers in a kit and they have an O ring kit if not the right size check out their hydraulics section, enjoy the ride. ;)

    Canyon Redrock vs '22 F3S - Demo day ride/comparison

    I went for a second demo ride on June 11, both highway and city streets; and I decided that although I really like the Smart Shox suspension etc. the pricing was too much for me to make a change. Good luck to those who do make the purchase. 🤑

    New member, thanks for having me - and where's a good place to get these things?

    Welcome to the forum. 1) Try calling GP Cycleworks formerly GP plastics and discuss your windshield requirements with them. The 20" tinted in my picture is from them. They are located in Florida and this windshield reduced the wind buffeting a bunch. There are others as mentioned, but none in...

    My experience with my Canyon's Off Pavement Performance. What are you experiencing?

    If you are worried about a flat tire, buy yourself a portable air compressor with a plug kit, or a bag of slime, and you should be fine. (y)

    What is the Correct Garmin for my '16 RT Ltd?

    What just happened? Two weeks old: Engine shut down, VSS Error.

    If you barely touched the kill switch and it shut off than I would be checking out the kill switch by working it on and off many times to see if that fixes its sensitivity. There have been other posts on here where others have had a no start by accidentaly touching the kill switch even at speed...

    How do I get a new key for 2020 F3 Rear Cowl lock?

    If you are referring to storage under the rear seat you should be able to open it by rotating the ignition key to the tool position. If it has the painted cowl installed it is a regular key (mine is a Southco RS046). Check with your local Can am dealer and have the VIN# handy they may be able...

    How do I select and set-up Red Rock custom mode?

    I agree, I read the owners manual and it mentioned that there was a custom mode but not how to save or set it up??:unsure:

    Front Tires wearing on the inside - aligned TWICE! What's next?

    My SWAG is that your ride height is wrong. If your ride height is too low, the bike will have excessive toe out, resulting in wandering steering and wear on the inside of the tires. Were you on the bike, or was the bike loaded to your weight (1 or 2-up) during the alignment? If not, you will...

    Canyon Redrock vs '22 F3S - Demo day ride/comparison

    Our local dealer had a demo day ride for the Spyders today so I booked a Canyon Redrock, I had test driven a Sea to Sky last year. Canyon Redrock Seat is higher and the cushion is harder, you sit more upright and your pegs and legs are right below your butt. If you have occasional 2 up riding...

    Hit something and cracked the lower part of the front grill - what are my choices, new grill or something else?

    You can buy the lower part of the grill and it is not very expensive, you can find the part on the online parts guide or order it from the nearest dealer and it only takes a few minutes to replace. :) Here is my how to: Replacing the front (cadre) 705009330 on a 22 F3S in the how to section.

    2016 RTS Right front tire wobble/shakes - any thoughts?

    There are 3 things that can be causing the observed tire/rim wobble: 1) The tire has sidewall defect from manufacturing or road damage 2) The rim is bent from manufacturing or road damage 3) The hub has a maching defect or bent spindle?? Raise the front wheel off the ground so that you can...

    Is this a Major Electrical Short??? Any suggestions?

    If you have a decent volt meter (one that reads to 1/10 or .1 volts) you can test your battery while in the bike. The battery voltage after sitting over night should be more than 12.6 and preferably at 12.8 for a fully charged AGM battery. But the load test voltage should be above 10.5v or even...

    Cat delete - my thoughts

    I have a cat delete with baffles I built to reduce sound volume but not restrict the flow of exhaust gas. I don't idle the quad before or after riding and ride mostly open country with very little city stop light traffic and have never smelled the exhaust; the engine runs smoothly and strong. JMO

    Is a BEST extended warranty a good idea? What's the process on selling your BEST warrantied Spyder?

    Contrary to all the support to buy Best warranty after the BRP warranty, I do not buy any extended warranties after the OEM warranty on anything and have been extremely lucky and have saved thousands of dollars that would have been spent buying warranties. Bottom line is that it's your money...

    After input on Handlebar risers... Anyone?

    I installed a 2" riser block on my '22 F3S and the results were it moved the bars towards me 1 3/4" and up about 5/8" in the lowest position. This position feels better, but I haven't had much seat time yet to see how it feels on longer rides? :)

    Is It OK to Make 500 km On the First Day With a Brand-New 2023 Can-Am RT Limited?

    Good to hear that you had a great ride but the blisters are more likely from gripping the grips much toooo tightly. Take the time to learn to relax your grip and open and close your hands every few minutes to prevent cramping and blisters. ;)
