• 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.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I outfitted my Canyon with the Alaska Leather sheepskin seat cover from my old BMW GS. The fit was perfect. I have a 1500 mile round trip to the BMW MOA rally in Lebanon TN in a few weeks and the sheepskin will make the long days more comfortable. It also holds sentimental value.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I installed the lock tumblers in my Canyon side cases. I found that the procedure was slightly different than demonstrated on the SHAD web site but I just reasoned through it. The most difficult part was installing the fastner that holds the lock bar on each tumbler. Not complicated, just an...

    Thought the wife was going to kill me - I bought a new Ryker

    Taking her out to dinner was a good move. You didn't want her handling a cast iron skillet at the time.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I received and mounted the Can Am side cases for my Canyon STD (thanks iMotorsports). My previous experiment with the generic SHAD side cases from Amazon resulted in failure and return when I discovered that the Can Am branded SHAD cases had proprietary mounting hardware. They were close, but...

    A different take on HD logo on stuff!

    I don't see that it makes any difference. I used the tail trunk left over from my BMW GS on my Canyon. The trunk has a big embossed BMW on it but looks like it belongs on the Canyon. BMW/BRP roundell/cog - whatever. Besides, I know several riders who have several different brands of bikes, they...

    2024 Dash Display suddenly changing &/or freezing - anyone else? Any fixes?

    If you are using an after market lightning cord try changing to an OEM Apple one. Sometimes the after market cords are just a little bit wonky.

    Having trouble opening/lifting the Drivers Seat - anyone else? Any fixes/solutions?

    I went through exactly the same problem with my Canyon. I finally went back to the dealer for help and this is what I learned. Just turn the key gently to the full clockwise position; just like the starting position. Then push down and turn it clockwise some more. You will be working against...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I replaced the dealer tag on my new Canyon with the permanent one. Exactly two weeks post delivery. Now Sherman is legitimate!

    Can you feel any Difference in the Suspension between an XT and a RedRock Canyon?

    When I picked up my STD model and got it home and checked the air bag pressure it registered 0 psi. I added pressure at the Schraeder valve to 8 lbs (for my weight). This firmed up the rear suspension substantially. I don't know if they ship the air bag empty or mine was just overlooked at assembly.

    Traded my 2019 Ryker Rally for a New Canyon Standard - First Impressions

    So I visited my dealer today and my Canyon tank bag had come in. Installation was: remove seat; loop the hook under the tank cowl; twist the LinQ nano fasteners into the orifice on the tank frame; Stand back and feel very good about my mechanical prowess. The tank bag is twice the size of...

    Traded my 2019 Ryker Rally for a New Canyon Standard - First Impressions

    It is the SHAD part in your first photograph that is too wide. Only one of the lateral hooks (the front one) on the bottom part of the bag (as shown in the schematic) is used on the Canyon mount. The rear hook is likely used on the SHAD 4-point mount that would be aftermarket installed on...

    Why is there a removable Rear fender tip on the Canyons?

    Alright Canyoneers, there appears to be a removable tip on the bottom of the rear fender. Why?

    Traded my 2019 Ryker Rally for a New Canyon Standard - First Impressions

    You got that right. The right and left Shad bags came from different vendors; one shipped by UPS and the other shipped by FedEx. I actually had the return process with Amazon initiated before the second bag arrived. Plan B initiated. Thanks Deanna, I have that little tank bag on order with my...

    Traded my 2019 Ryker Rally for a New Canyon Standard - First Impressions

    Well, it seemed like a good idea. I ordered a set of the 47L Shad Terra cases from Amazon. They came in today. However, they will not work with the Canyon. The mounting hook on the generic Shad Terra's is 6" wide. The bar between the upright pieces on the Canyon mount is only 4.75", so the...

    Desperately seeking a way to save and keep my 2014 frunk lid when I trade the Spyder in - any suggestions?

    Maybe a search of Ebay would help. I have found some pretty obscure parts there.

    That's awesome, a Canyon in its natural habitat.

    Sarah, when you get a chance to sit on one I think you will find the riding position very familiar.
