I'm interested but isn't there a fitting on the bottom that connects back to the Oil Cannister/Cannister-ectomy?

What air filter is this? Doesn't look like the JT Air Filter. Would be interested in finding one if you have the manufacturer. I still have my 08 GS and love it. Don't plan on trading it in any...
It all depends on what you are looking for. I got my 2008 3 years ago and I have, sometimes, had to look hard to find what I wanted. Seats, you can find a couple of vendors. One of them is...
11/25 Update - So I know its been a while since I updated but I have been in the wind since I got the bike back. I received a call from Tim and they finally found the source of the trouble. ...
PMK you are the man. Keep trying to impart the wisdom and let whoever can, soak in the knowledge. Just as an aside, how do you feel about speed bleeders? I was thinking about changing out my...
Holy crap....haven't laughed like this in a while.....:roflblack:
Italo they came on my 2008 GS and I have an aftermarket exhaust. They work fine. This is my grandson on my bike last year on a trip. The muffler with it's bracket was sitting low but, I have since...
I was up at Sturgis or rather Hill City. Stayed in Hill City as it was more central to everything that I was there for. Riding the Black Hills and seeing Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Custer, Deadwood,...
Totally worth the money. I installed the set on my 2008 GS and it made a huge difference. Love it.
Got a call yesterday from the shop. They had been dealing with BRP and they ended up changing the DPS and the magnet in the alignment sensor. I don’t pretend to know enough about the systems to...
7/3 Update—
So went to pick up my Spyder yesterday. Was excited as I hadn’t been in the saddle since before Memorial Day. Got about 5 miles from the shop and went into Limp mode so nurses it...
Dickim,
Fab work looks good my friend. :clap: Stay safe and enjoy the ride sir. :doorag:

dickim,
I don't have the brake extender on my 08 GS with the Rivco boards. I just shift my heel over and use it. I also do some fab work and have been thinking about fab'ing an extender. Will...
Well further update.....Talked to Tx Adventure service dept and they had been on the phone with BRP for about 4 hours AFTER replacing the DPS with the "New" part from BRP. Apparently it was a bad...
We are going to ride the Black Hills and Mount Rushmore and several of the areas. Sturgis is really on our agenda to roll through there on 1 day out of the 7. Actually just want to say I've been...
Some friends and I are going to going to be in Sturgis the week prior to the rally and leaving the day it starts. Staying in Hill City in a cabin. Just wanted to ride the Black Hills and see the...
Will do.
Wanted to update this. Took it to Texas Adventure Powersports on/about May 20th. They were finally able to do the troubleshooting week of 5/27 and put it on BUDS and the DPS is the culprit...like I...
I will let you know what I find out. Spoke with the guys at Texas Adventure PowerSports in Richardson about it. One of the BRP Techs indicated that it could be the battery as well because it...
I was kind of afraid of that. It will have to wait for a bit as I was laid off and not working regularly right now. Probably in Oct/Nov timeframe:banghead:. It still handles the same so I may do...
I have used this forum to correct every issue (or what I thought was an issue) on my 2008 GS. I thoroughly love this bike. I was riding and parked it in my shop and it sat for about 5 days before I...
I'm right there with you. Sorry but this is like upgrading from a Road King to a Sportster. JMO.
I know that this was last posted in January and if your wife is like mine, you have gotten this done already but I just stumbled across it. If you are in North Texas, Cowtown Powersports is supposed...
Once again this forum has helped me save a trip to the dealer and to learn more about my Spyder. Since Feb I have put about 1500 miles on it and have been learning more and more about this awesome...
I didn't because my wife had the paperwork (She bought it as a birthday present) to show that they had just completed oil/filter change and air filter change just before selling. I just received my...
No worries sir. I actually had fun even though it was a whipping. Made me think and got me out from in front of the tube. Allowed me to use my tools and wits (whats left) to accomplish something. ...
Holy Crap...I was sweaty and tired by the time I got the filter in and attached using the non-nippled fuel filter and the stock airbox. I struggled and fought getting the hoses to seat on the...
Thank you so much!! Greatly appreciated.
That would be great! Thank you for the picture. I’m more of a visual person. If you have a parts list and some type of desc on the how-to, I would greatly appreciate it. This site already made...
Thank you sir!
