• 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.

    Does anyone know (or can measure) their Canyon's rear tire tread depth?

    A bit of searching and I found that rear tire on a Canyon is a K225/50R15 84H. More time with Google says it has a tread depth of 8 mm, or .315 inches. 8/32 is .25 inches, so you are showing 0.065 inches of wear.

    Or Apple fixing the iOS update before it's released. I just checked, and the iOS 26 update is supposed be announced on Sep 9, and released on Sep 15. I think I'm going to wait awhile before updating my iPhone.

    Has anyone used one of these trailers? Any doubts?

    I just went through the steps, and it is NOT cheap. It goes for US $89.95 per day. A 6'x12' trailer with a full width ramp goes for US $34.95 per day.

    I checked one of the U-Haul locations in my area and found a listing for: Toy Hauler - 16ft Flatbed Utility Trailer https://www.uhaul.com/Trailers/16ft-Flatbed-Utility-Car-Trailer-Rental/TH/ "...16-foot deck, drive-over fenders, and three 8-foot ramps..." And just to be clear, I just checked...

    CarPlay Froze, then entire Head Unit Froze Up While Riding, then supposedly updated and rebooted on the Highway - Anyone else had this happen?

    My iPhone and Spyder both have the latest software updates and I haven't had any problems since the BRP Connect 4.1 update earlier this year. I don't run beta versions of anything anymore, as I'm retired and just want things to work. But that's JM2C. Do you use a battery tender? How old is your...

    Wasted my $$ on Cardo Packtalk Bold - just wanted decent sounding Music, but it sounds like ****!

    I hadn't thought about them in awhile, but I used to fly a lot for work. I tried several types of earbuds to listen to music while flying and to reduce the regular noise in flight, and eventually ended up with a pair from Etymotic. https://etymotic.com/ The ones I bought came with several...

    RT Rear Trunk looks likely to wear where I press it to close it - is there anything to stop that?

    A quick google search found several companies that advertise paint protection film/wraps for CAN-AM vehicles. I did not see any that were specific to the top case but it's worth asking. And you can buy clear paint protection film at some auto parts stores. Cut it to shape and then apply it...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Well, at least East Texas has newspapers to help you dry your wet boots. ;)
