Does anyone know if the handbrake will fit a 2018? The site says through 2017, but not sure if they have it up to date. Sent them a note several days back but no response. Thanks
I think it is a fairly small shop and some might be on vacation over Thanksgiving.
If you don't hear back in a few more days, give them a call.
P.S. If I ever get mine working, I would be happy to arrange a test ride before you shell out $$$$ for something you might not like.
Spell check got me. Stay should be "real". A real plus for Can Am'sQuote:

With pegs you just have to slide your foot forward and press the brake but with floor boards you do have more of a problem. :thumbup:
That is how I got my first "limp mode." Darn pair of new boots. :roflblack:Quote:

The reason I went to the Spyder was to get away from the hand brake and clutch. When you have arthritis in your hands the last thing you want is hand controls. I had
a gold wing trike before the Syder and find the Spyder works just fine for me. I hope they never put hand brakes on this machine it is fine just the way it is.
Good display of sympathy/empathy for others who may not be able to use their FOOT to brake with.Quote:

And my other comments weren't really fair.....or accurate.
Turns out that a slight mistake I made was casing the braking force to drop off rather dramatically.
Now that I have corrected that, the braking force is back to adequate again.
Dealer has installed a weaker return spring. I am anxious to see how that impacts the force required to pull it.
Has anyone found a fix for this? My right leg is cramping from having to lift and put on the brake. I did install the brake pedal extender and it doesnt seem to have helped much.
