Are you still making the centre windscreen bracket for a 2014 RT-S, and do you have a website that I can order from?
Nearest dealer is 1,000 miles away, and I have not had good service from them in the past.
I already have another spare clonable key that works, as well as my normally used key.
I just find it...
Latest is after leaving the key in the switch and powered up, it came up with a BAD KEY message on the dash.
Kill switch definitely on RUN, checked that first as I was caught out on that once before when it was accidentally knocked into the STOP position.
Will try to leave the key in and switched on to see...
Today, I tried the spare key to suit my 2011 RSS and it lights up the dash OK and goes through the normal start up routine, but nothing when the starter button is pressed, with brakes applied.
The...
Just wondering what the final result was with the headlights staying on.
I now have a similar situation on a 2011 RSS SE5, but no moisture, rain or lightning involved.
I am thinking either a short...
No electrical work done on the bike, and it just started after a short 30 mile ride on Sunday.
As mentioned above, there is power on the 2 lower relay pins (85 & 87), the same as all the other...
Headlights stay on for as long as the relay is plugged in after the Spyder is switched off, and the key is removed.
The only way to switch them off is to take out the relay, and yes, I have swapped...
After a ride today, I found that the headlights were on, even with the ignition key out.
With the key out, they can be changed from low to high beam.
The relay has been changed, and fuses checked....
I have a 2011 RSS SE5 with some clutch issues.
In the Green Machines workshop manual, page 192 it states that the outer seal on the clutch hydraulic piston (just behind the small Rotax cover) has to...
I had the P0600 code, together with U0126, U1101,U1150 & U1160 last year, and after 5 months at the dealership, it turned out to be a faulty spark plug lead. ...
In my case described above, I just returned from a 175 mile ride, pulled into the service station to refuel and the noise appeared when trying to take off.
My bike has only ever seen 3 bars a couple...
Have already checked the drive pulley, and the gear shift lever, no problems with either of these.
Yes, noise only happens when trying to take off from stationary, no issues once mobile.
I have a 2011 RSS SE5 with 24,000 miles on it which after a recent ride, would not engage 1st gear smoothly.
It would semi engage, and the bike would move but with a ratcheting sound for a short...
Did you ever get a satisfactory result re your issues, and what was the problem? After completing a ride recently, my 2011 RSS SE5 has the same issues, and as the nearest Can Am dealer is 950 miles...
After 5 months, I have been informed that the error has been resolved.
Despite the multiple error codes recorded in BUDS, evidently the problem was a faulty spark plug lead.
When the engine was...
Four months later it is still at the dealers and they are still trying to find the fault.
Not very impressed at this stage.
I have contacted BRP Australia twice, once after the first week...
On a recent trip, my 2011 RSS SE5 stalled at an intersection and brought up the following on the dash, VSS Fault and Check DPS, & VSS fault dash pilot light and when trying to restart it the idling...
I am in Alice Springs, nearest dealer is 1550kms away, so freight is not quick here.
The kit from the USA costs around A$150 and supplies 2 of each shim.
I will check out Precision Shims and make a...
Does anyone have an accurate measurement of the outside diameter of the valve shims for the 998 Spyder engine?
I am looking at purchasing a kit from AF1 Racing and getting it sent out to Australia...
Recently replaced all 8 grease nipples on the front A arms with M6 x 45 degree nipples, only problem I had with my 2011 RSS was that I had to drop the top A arms an inch to install the back nipple....
On my 2011 RSS, 170 works fine, no vibration.
I agree with you IdahoMtnSpyder, I do not believe that they have any idea of the sensors / electrics relating to the Spyder and I am not prepared to take a chance on their kit.
At least the speedo...
Yes, they do list a kit for our Spyders but are unable to offer any information regarding the pickup point for the speed sensor.
Without definite instructions, I am reluctant to purchase this kit...
Yes, I have tried 2 different GPS and with the odometer, a couple of small towns are 252 km apart (156 miles), the tripmeter reads 274km (170 miles).
I am planning a 8,500km + (5,300 mile) trip...
Thanks all for the feedback.
Speeds checked against GPS, and distance between 2 fuel stops of a known distance apart.
Nearest dealer to me is 950 miles away and I will not be near any dealer for...
Has anyone used the Speedohealer unit to correct an incorrect speedo / odometer error.
I have a relatively large error, correct at 35 mile, 68 v 60 and odometer reads 170 for a 156 mile trip.
I...
Going by the tyre sizes, circumference and revs per mile, the 215/60-15 is still not sufficient to correct the speedo error (still several mph out at 60mph, and greater at the higher speeds that we...
