When the Formozas were mounted and balanced........major improvement. Squared Away was also a major improvement. I just can't understand why BRP would send out a $28k unit with crappy tires (only got 6k mi. on the rear tire) and it not being properly aligned. When Squared Away aligned my spyder the left side was 2 1/2"s out of alignment and the right side was 1 1/4" out.
    Sorry to hear about your problems. I have 14,000 on my rear Kenda and going for another 1,000. My front tires have 26,000 with no shaking or vibration. Most of my friends have the same results. Glad to hear you found something that made you happy

    Most issues were taken care of under warrantee with the exception of the tire wear and alignment. The only remaining issue is air loss in the rear suspension system and BRP will not address it even though the problem has been occurring since day one. They refuse all communication regarding the matter. Other than that, it's a sweet ride. I like the spyder I just don't like BRP.
