• 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.

    Here goes nothing....!

    Well, I just called my local dealer in Wilmington and gave him all of my information. I told him I want to order a Spyder RT SE5 in Orbital Blue, and that I have $6,000 to give as a down payment on the bike. He told me he'll get back with me to see if the financing went through or not. If so...

    Spyder RS Seat/Steering Conversion

    OK. I believe I have a buyer for my MP3 500, and now I'm needing to decide on which Spyder to purchase. Hands down I like the RT best, without a doubt. I love the way they made it so you are actually SITTING UPRIGHT, instead of leaning forward. But the pricetag is so freaking high that it's...

    MagicMan products for the MP3 500?

    Tilting CanAm Spyder

    I was enjoying a nice Macanudo Cigar today at my friends cigar shop, and we were discussing the CanAm Spyder. One guy told me he read an article somewhere that said that brp is coming out with a new Spyder model that will have the ability to TILT in turns. Has anybody else heard about this? If...

    Funny thing....

    As many of you already know, I have been waiting for my Spyder SE5 since last December. As many of you may ALSO know, I have had a problem scratching up the remaining money to pay for it when it arrives. Well, we are in September now, and still no Spyder!

    Mono Seat Cowl

    I was looking at Lamontsters Spyder, and it looks like he has something covering the back part of the seat. Am I wrong? Is that the Mono Seat Cowl that he has on, or is it the Sport Rack? Does somebody have any pictures of the Seat Cowl and the Sport Rack installed on their Spyder? I would...

    COLD FEET

    Well, I regret to say it, but I'm starting to get "cold feet" about buying the Spyder SE5. With all that has been said about not meeting the September deadline, and all the discussion about other negative aspects of BRP, I don't know if I want the thing anymore. We just had a big CanAm test...

    No longer a Spyder Virgin!

    Well, I finally was able to take a nice test ride on the Spyder. All I can say is....WOW! That thing had far more POWER than I had ever dreamed. But I have never handled a motorcycle in my life, so this was ALL new to me. I had a heck of a time shifting gears. I think the dealer was going to...
