Another first for me, been riding two wheelers for lots of years and had a couple of close calls but today I actually ran over a rather large dog with my 2015 RT Spyder. Cruising a two lane paved...
Last autumn I purchased my 2015 Spyder RT from an estate. The previous owner was the only owner and I would like to find out where he purchased it from. The machine is in perfect order and needs no...
Being an old guy with time on my hands this winter I decided to remove the belt guard and check out conditions behind there. Only two 6MM Torx screws for removal, right? I was surprised to discover...
Last autumn I bought a 2015 RT SE6 with 7000 miles for $12000. Mine is in excellent shape, no weathered finish or pitted chrome. $15000 seems too high, keep shopping.
Recently had to pull off some plastic panels for access to change the equalizer bar. With the front panels removed, the one with three grommets and no screws, there was exposed a straight knurled...
I just installed a new bar on my 2015 RT last week and could not believe the difference in handling. With standard suspension it felt like it was going to roll over when riding on a high crowned road...
I just installed a new sway bar on my new to me 2015 RT yesterday. I got a lot of guidance from a youtube video by Can-Am Spyder Accessories. In the video the installer suggested spraying "a little...
Thanks to all who answered my posting. I was just looking for toe expressed in degrees so I could apply the math. Zero degrees seems reasonable and relatively easy to verify, no math required.

Answering my own question here. Found in the service manual that the specified Toe In is 0 degrees +/- 0.2 degrees.
Found nothing on caster or camber. Not adjustable anyway I believe.
I see several references in this forum concerning Lazer Alignment but have not found actual factory specifications anywhere.
Anybody know what the spec's are?
At least one of the responses to this initial question responded that there has been big changes in engine oil in the past decades. I agree that indeed this seems to be the case. My owners manual,...
Thank you all for the info and advice. An anchor ring on the shock/spring is a good idea. You don't expect to ever need to tow but it's good to have a plan just like my automobile has a removable...
Just wondering if a disabled Spyder with SE6 transmission can be towed with a towing strap?
Do the brakes still work without the engine running?
Would towing damage the transmission?
Where can...
A new owner here of a 2015 RT model. Been riding two wheelers for the past 60 years and having trouble adjusting to the trike characteristics, feels like it's tipping over on highly crowned road...
New owner here of a 2015 RT that after two weeks has still not seen the engine. I plan on doing my own routine maintenance and need guidance on panel removal to access different parts of the machine....
I am an old bike rider that's a new Spyder rider. I realize that the bigger frontal area of the Spyder makes it more visible to those that might pull out into your path but have been turning on the...
Owned my 2015 Spyder RT Special for 24 hours now and am delighted with all of the features but am puzzled with the ECO button on thr top of the left grip. I have read most of the owners manual and...
