• 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.

    Took delivery of my Canyon Base

    I made a deal with iMotorsports and traded in my F3-S, their offer was much better than I expected, and the whole process was easy as could be. Patrick, the transport guy, arrived on the dot late Tuesday afternoon with a big enclosed trailer, drove the Canyon off, drove the F3 on, and that was...

    Returning member after years on a Goldwing Trike - anyone else done this? Thoughts?

    I think the 2020 and up Base RT is the best looking bike in the entire Spyder lineup. Keep us posted, @poppajim! Sarah

    Can You Tour on a Ryker?

    I’ll just add that I appreciate having a sport windshield, it takes care of most of the wind pushing against me, but leaves my head in clean air. Sarah

    Review: The Can-Am Ryker... A Great Ride!

    Rykers are sorely underrated in my opinion, as long as they fit the person. Sarah

    Anyone out there balance your own Ryker wheels? If so, how?

    I've got Ride-On sealant in mine, we've used it for years. The front of the Ryker bounces a good bit for the first mile or so, then smooths out. Sarah

    Ryker turning left Issues

    Good luck, Guy. A new forum member who is having the same left turn issues pm'd me, their dealer had never heard of the issue or the kit and left them holding the bag. So you may have a long row to hoe. It's terribly frustrating all the way around. I'd like to get BRP corporate by the ear...

    Ryker turning left Issues

    According to recent posts, some folks on the FB groups have been able to have the Steering Update kit installed for free. Here's the current bulletin: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2025/MC-11015830-0001.pdf Should be a recall, but this is a start, at least. Sarah

    Is the Canyon Riding position narrower than the RT's? Enough to notice & stop cramping hips?

    Asphalt Animal, the Canyon has a narrow seating position with your feet dropped directly below. It put me immediately in mind of my dual-sport bikes of the past, DR650, BMW GS, and so forth. I'm selling my F3-S for the same reason you mention, the seating position is too wide for my comfort on...

    Has anyone lowered a 2020+ RT seat?

    I've never used them, but have heard good things: https://www.laamseats.com/ Might be worth a call. Wonder if there's a local upholster with any experience? Sarah

    Finally got my Spyder!

    I think I may be looking at a better sway bar for my F3S, too. My upgraded Ryker feels like it's glued to the road, but the F3 sort of feels like it unhinges in the middle of a curve. I'm ticked with the cat delete, sounds just right with the stock muffler. Sarah

    Rear seat won't unlatch! Any pics of the latch/latch location? Sure would appreciate any help!?!

    Rollie, If it's like my F3S the latch is in the right hand side of the seat in the corner nearest the tail light. Can you get a knee or strong elbow on the seat and push down on that area while you turn the key? Sarah

    Are there any Definitive Sway Bar Upgrade Outcomes available for the Ryker (Rally's specifically)?

    That makes perfect sense, @nightfalcon. Mods have to suit your priorities. Keep us posted. Sarah

    Passenger foot pegs won’t stay vertical - any suggestions to keep them up?

    ^^Just a follow up on the shims mentioned above, we happened to have some in the spare washer bin, so I gave them a whirl. After 30 miles, including our bumpy gravel driveway, they haven't budged. We'll see how it goes over time. I added a shim to one side of each peg, so I can add the others if...

    Looking to install Cameras - where can I find a wire that comes on with the key on?

    And if it's like my F3, look under the left side access panel, the wires are tagged "customer accessory" You may have to take off the panel below it to get them out of the bundle, mine were zipped tied tight. Sarah

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I took the OEM belt tensioner off the F3S. Per the parts diagrams it looks like the factory started installing them in '19. I rode about 30 miles at varying speeds, got up to 85 for a stretch a couple of times and never felt any troublesome vibration. I think I'll be fine without it. One...
