My “quick fix” for a flashing “check engine” light

After 7 years and 77,000 miles I thought I knew “Trixy” my 2013 ST Limited.
But that isn’t always the case with an electronic personality such...

Congrats on your new ride. I have the 2013 St Limited. Bought it used in 2015
with 6000 miles. Now just over 78,000. Would have had more but Covid
caused a big riding problem. Now just getting...

It was the only one I could fine that I hope will fit. Going on this afternoon.
Not much available.

Will a Continental 165/60/R15 fit on my 2013 St?

My 2013 clutch chatter was so bad it was embarrassing. I put on a belt tentioner and that helped. But it totally went away when I purchased the oil change kit from Lamonster Garage.

Looks great.

I got mine from Smooth Spyder to stop the clutch chatter on my 2015 ST Limited. It went on the bottom and helped greatly. The chatter was totally eliminated when I started buying my oil change kit...

Thank you all for your comments and information.
While reviewing these comments it seems to me that my 2013 ST Limited should only be a spectator at the parade. After reading the comments I went to...

Hi all, Some in our Spyder riding club would like to decorate their Spyder for a fun ride in a local Christmas parade. Has anyone had experience putting temporary decorations on their Spyder? What...

Thanks for the comments. A simple method to tow the disabled Spyder seems to have become very complicated. It may be that I should plan my travels around cell Tel reception maps.

I would appreciate knowing how to get into Neutral if necessary. We travel about 15,000 miles each year and so far no roadside breakdowns. But it is a concern. Thanks

Thanks for the comments. I'll have to practice.

Can a CanAm Spyder be towed if it stops running in a remote area?
I drive an Stse5 Limited and my woman-riding companion rides an F3. We ride extensively in the remote back roads of Me, NH, VT and...

Dear fellow Cult member. A “cult” is not a derogatory description, although in the past few years the media has given the word a slanted meaning. A cult is a group of people attracted to a common...

Oh no another arachnophobia victim!

You should never be caught in a group with decorated Spiders!!

It’s Spider not Spyder
I have been schooled to “trust the electronics”. When the pilot flies into a cloud he is taught to “trust the electronics”. When the sailor encounters fog, “trust the...

What is a Spider? Why do we so few on the road?

Recently, I had the opportunity to travel to Florida for some biking in the sun, not the snow. A Harley Trike was my mount for that stay. (No...

Never stop riding.
Check out this short video.
When the sun is out I 'm out also. I love the view through the trees with no foliage on them. No traffic at the beach!!

I have a Spider Ultra Touring Windshield for sale. Part Number 219400354. Used about 2 months. $150.00 plus s/p. I also have the original stock windshield. $75.00 plus s/p.
I ride a lot even in...

I have tried various places to mount my GoPro on my 13ST. Behind the windshield results in distortion when the sun hits it. In front requires mounting on the front panel that results in vibration. I...

Winter/cold weather riding

Hi All Bikers (2 and 3 wheel)

As I sit here on Christmas Morning 2017, North of Boston on the NH border and watch the snow softly fall, I realize that I will not be...

Got the bike back. All new parts in the clutch and drive pulley area. While the bike was apart the shop adjusted the valves, put in new plugs, changed the oil, used all new gaskets and so the bike is...

The shop attempted to remove the pulley to view the shaft but there is some damage under the pulley that only allows it to turn but not come off the shaft. The shop said they will cut the shaft after...

I took a photo of the pulley and shaft. When viewed larger it appeared the pulley was stripped. I have asked the shop to remove the pulley and call me to look at it.

Thanks for the advise. I'll do that this afternoon.

Well it was not the clutch that is slipping, the drive shaft is stripped where it inters the belt pulley. So that means that the motor has to come out and basically be rebuilt with a new drive shaft,...

The engine starts as normal. I can shift into 1st or reverse then I hear a slight click and then a scraping sound as the clutch doesn't want to engage. I can set and release the parking brake. The...

It is the correct oil as specified by Can Am. There is no code. I tried to view a code by pressing the three buttons but nothing showed up. The clutch only makes a slight click. It was a spinning...
