I'm embarrassed to say, but I have had my 2014 Can-Am Spyder RS for 1-year now but I have only put on it 432 miles. The Break-In inspection is 600-miles but there's no mention of "and/or X months". ...

Where did you order the switch from? powersports? How much?

Still haven't fixed it. I've determined something is wrong at the solenoid. The reverse release button on the left handlebar works as I hear the relay under the frunk click. The solenoid that...

Yep. Like I said, the foot lever is hard as a rock trying to go downward from 1st gear even though I hear the Reverse Actuator relay clicking. There's probably something not working between the RA...

Where's this cable? The foot shift lever is a shaft that goes straight into the trans casing. The actuation system seems to be solely electronic.



Is this an internal or external solenoid?

Yep, SM5. Might be new for 2013:

Won't shift down to reverse anymore. Yes, I'm pushing the left hand button.

I saw something about the F7 fuse on 2012-prior models. I have a "Left" and "Right" fuse panel on my 2014. I...

I can't seem to find definitive confirmation whether or not (and why) the BRP ST or RT hitch fits the RS. I saw one post that said Lamonster confirmed it did NOT fit, but I can't imagine why. I'm...

I paid $14,300 for my '14 RS. They charged me $0 for "Freight", "vehicle prep" & "delivery", which is important because another dealer wanted to charge over $100 for this and was non-negotiable. I...

I cut my blank down to use as a switch just like yours. You also have to cut the inside overhang to allow it to fully engage. Only problem now is, since it's only one bolt in the middle, the "switch"...

There's a spot on the side of the seat that if you Dremel a little bit, saddle bags will appear on each side.

Awesome. Please write that one up! Soon, us RS guys will have an RT Limited with a few dollars in parts!!

Ha, yea, that's a good idea not to ryde. Get better.

Sounds like you might not have enough pressure on the left spring assembly. This is definitely the trickiest part of this mod. I'm convinced...

Did you test it yet? I'm curious to see if the spring set-up on the left hole has enough pressure to hold down the ON switch. I couldn't figure out if there needed to be a spring'ed ball or a solid...

Yea, don't use a Dremel. Took a couple of minutes with a box cutter razor blade. The plastic is very brittle, which makes it easy to shave, but also easy to f' up. I got mine super smooth & round...

2014. I'm still learning about my byke, but I assume it's fly-by-wire. I editted to add, after Step 2, if you don't see the dummy switch, then things are different.

I made some edits and I did...

Now we're not done yet. We're missing some parts. First of all, let's understand how the electronics work. If you look at the white rubber pad back on the control assembly, the cruise control...

OK, here's the details. First, you have to disassemble the right handlebar controls:
1) Remove the tiny piece of rubber covering the "blank" where the cruise control switch is supposed to be. Not...

It's a hockey bag - actually a goalie bag, so yes, they are the largest bags made by man (very useful when you wait extended periods of time to do laundry day). It won't be as heavy as it looks,...

Ha. The bungee is just for the mock up. I had to hold my breath taking that picture, if I breathed too hard it would of flopped.

Actually, from my brief review of the parts diagrams, it looks like the entire left and right control assemblies only come as full pieces and they cost $210 for RS (non-CC) and $400+ for RS-S (with...

Wow! I was disassembling my right-hand controls to see how to fab a garage door opener where the cruise control is supposed to be & I found the cruise control electronics & buttons are all there. ...

I need to make this work:

Any ideas for a rack mount? Some forum member made a fairly large luggage rack for my late YZF600R. Anyone make a large rack for us?

Yep, those are the Fox Podium shocks. They were a pleasant surprise on my base-model 2014 RS. After digging around, I found it is officially a hidden upgrade for the base-model RS for 2014. ...

Thanks. Very weird. I actually have an additional phillips/torx shaft in my kit than the diagram. How are we supposed to adjust the adjustable coil springs then without the shock wrench - you...

Bump. Can anyone confirm one way or the other whether I'm missing any tools besides the tire gauge. Thanks.

Brake fluid is extremely confusing. You never want silicone brake fluid unless you have a very special application. DOT 5 is silicone (don't confuse it with "synthetic" - all brake fluid is...

Do you guys have the same tool kit with your '14 as mine or am I missing anything?



Are you serious?

What about the shock wrench and the two "tube" tools?
