    What he said. I pulled the blank cover off of my 2020 RTL and replaced it with a USB charging port. :2thumbs:

    No difference at all. They don't block any appreciable air flow, if kept clean.

    A couple of things. On my 2014RT, I changed the plugs at the recommended interval, and they were toast. There is no way it would have lasted until 40k miles. So, there is some variance in the...

    Yeah, the air bag is what adjusts the ride height, which is load dependent. (Also, acts as a spring helper too.) Since yours is the manual fill, you must adjust the air pressure depending on the...

    My local automotive tire shop does the installation without any problems or excessive questions. I just remove the drive splines and rubber buffers and take them the rim only.

    On my 2014 RT I did both. I did the Baja swaybar first and felt it needed more, then went to the Elka's. The ideal set up IMO, is the swaybar, then Elka's, combined with a good quality automotive...

    As I understand it, Rotella isn't sold as "approved" because they don't submit their oil for very expensive testing protocols to get that approval.

    Agreed. The lever type switch on the front of the module is the normal place for the highbeam/flash switch.

    I know the original question was regarding 2013 or newer, but I think my case does apply.

    I had an original 2008 Premier Edition. The front end was so misaligned from the factory it caused...

    I did the same thing when I owned my 2008 GS. It worked perfectly.

    With all due respect, I don't think that's what it means. It says: "ECO mode smart assist". Without the comma, I'm taking it to means a direct reference to the ECO mode engine tune/mapping.

    Just be aware that now-a-days color can be irrelevant. Anti-freeze comes in a whole variety of colors, red, blue, orange, green, yellow, etc. You have to know whether it's a HOAT type coolant or...

    The newer Spyder don't come with a cotter pin anymore. I'm sure they just dropped it due to saving a few pennies per unit for an unnecessary and redundant part.

    I checked the previously listed part numbers and verified they're accurate, but the problem is that I can't find anywhere you can purchase them. Plus, the Can Am parts website doesn't list it as...

    I've tried the Rain-X for plastic on visors and glasses to prevent fogging in colder weather. In short, I didn't like it. In order to get the moisture dispersing qualities, you have to leave a...

    I'm another voted against the run flats. I have a BMW X3 with Pirelli run flats and they give a terrible ride. Presumably, because the sidewalls are so stiff. Next tire change, which is rapidly...

    I bought an aftermarket LED light for under $20 that fit almost perfectly with slightly better output, so I can't comment on the OEM light, but honestly it doesn't do all that much. It is a little...

    IIRC, you're coming up to a valve check interval, so you can easily do both the check and replace the plugs and wires at the same time, which I think is the manual's recommendation. On the twin...

    Just for a data point.
    I traded in my old 2014 RT on a 2020 RTL and when I did, it had about 65k miles on it. Never any issues and it still ran like it did new. Now I've got about 20k on my 2020...

    I'm in your general vicinity, so I know what you mean about not having many resources around. Central Coast Yamaha in Santa Maria is a Spyder dealer. They are so-so at best for purchase and NEVER...

    On my 2008 GS, no. On my 2014RT, no. On my 2020 RTL, yes. Other than minor modifications, it just plan works for me as is.

    I went from a 14 RT to a 2020 RTL, so I'll give you my take. The differences are subtle, but the 2020 variant is an improvement overall.

    The suspension changes are slight, but noticeable. On...

    Do you think you got all of the debris out? That looks like a lot loose metal could be floating around inside the engine, which could be catastrophic.
