• 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.

    rear bumper removal

    The good advice man strikes again. Those pesky bag cables stretch almost immediately after you start using the bags. Once you get to the barrel adjusters it's no big deal, and just take your time and be gentle putting that panel back on.

    New to Can Am

    It will take time to learn, but once you dooo…! I think we almost all come from a fairly serious motorcycle background. The spyder is different, but not necessarily in a bad way. Take your time getting used to it, and it will treat you very well.

    Help with buying?

    like the idea of buying non current model. My 2017 came from IMotorsports, MANY thousand less than the new (not neccesarily) improved 2018. If this is your first Spyder,, congrats on taking the plunge. Instead of the high board maybe look at that carryover white one.

    Eco Mode - What is this thing actually doing

    ECO mode runs a detuned engine map, so it won't accelerate as hard, etc. It also enables a "shift light" supposedly telling you the optimum shift point for maximum mileage efficiency. In ECO mode, it still makes plenty of power in my opinion, it just arrives with a softer hit . The shift light...

    Used 2014 RT-S Opinions?

    scratched under the nose? pff. Mt 2014 was super reliable with only the dreaded DESS issue. You can still catch a dip or driveway that is too steep. That is what the bump skid was designed for. I had a couple scrapes under the nose of mine, and it didn't affect the trade in value at all. It...

    Park brake

    your's is a cautionary tale. I know there is a way to release a cable or something to take the parking brake off line, and I better learn how to do it, before this issue crops up with me.

    Bloody German Rider

    some people that have a 12th grade education here in the states have a very limited knowledge of English language as well/ So, no worries, and welcome aboard, you'll find some of your countrymen here, and a treasure chest of experience and knowledge from all of our members.

    So why is it called 'Ryker'?

    Fun? Well, yes but....

    it's great to have both options. Don't know if I would take a thousand mile trip on the vespa. So you probably need both. If insurance and registration don't wrack you. You should be good to go.

    What Model year to consider?

    first off, we all love the spyder too. Nextly, what model are you thinking about? In 2010 they were using the 998twin across the line. In 2014 they changed to the 1330 triple , a huge upgrade, except maybe in exhaust note. A lot of folks just getting their feet wet, so to speak, are opting for...

    bump skid use

    there are no posts asking that question because it is really silly. The bumpskid is not structural

    Tupperware Question

    if you want ease of installation, use only a silicone based product so as to not deteriorate the rubber grommet. Personally, I like a little saliva, it is cheap, and when dry, grommets hang tight.

    Looking at a 2015 RT Limited ... Good deal or not?!?

    look critically at the rubber. Price is probably avg.? Y0u certainly can't get a new one for that. The low mile spyder is not unique. because of our demographic, many of us "age out" or "health out" Take your time getting used to it before you turn up the wick. Good luck.
