I have a 2015 Spyder RT Limited. My annoying whine noise that comes in at between 60-70 km/hr (36-45 mph) and go out completely after that. Right now, I am waiting to get it into a dealer to check...
I also have the annoying whine noise around 70 km/hr. Shifting gears does not change it. Less pronounced on acceleration, more prounced on cruising or deceleration. Goes away completely after 80...
I have heard that the magnets on the Magic Mirrors can cause the fuel and temp gauges to mis-read. I recall reading somewhere that there is a solution to this problem. Could someone please post...
The newer Spyders no longer have the delay to start so would be easier for a non Spyder owner to steal if key is left on ignition. I personally prefer the original plastic key holder that comes with...
As I said, it is more noticeable when you are backing up a trailer (mine is a BRP RT622) slowly and have to make quick steering adjustments to manouevre trailer in place. Another time you may notice...
I have an observation and a question. I have a 2015 Spyder RTL and I have noticed when it is at idle it takes a lot of effort to steer. My friend's identical same year and model Spyder is the same. I...
I have a 2015 Spyder RT Limited with the compressor controlled air ride system. Since it has been raining for the past week and I haven't been riding, I decided to stick a tire pressure gauge (one...
I can help you as I also have a 2015 RT and my windshield bushings developed play that caused it to rattle and make a "clicking" sound when I went over rough pavement. So here you go, this is what...
I used Bob's red RT for my image on my Samsung Galaxy 5 Android phone (good job Bob!). Transferred image to the DCIM (camera) folder on the phone's hard-drive, not the DCIM folder external Micro-SD...
Ingenious, but probably not safe. I don't think helmets were designed to be drilled into. Perhaps if you want to wear it, consider a carriage bolt head underneath instead of a hex bolt head -...
I got mine from Big Bike Parts. I am just using the lower piece, not the hood piece. It holds well with velcro strips and looks good on my 2015 RT Limited as it matches the black below the...
Thanks for posting the pic "gunnar". Where can one buy this unit?
Or wait until she goes to the bathroom - LOL!
RWC, you are quite correct, my error, sorry. 270 x 0.2248 (conversion factor) does give you 60.69. Thank you for pointing out the error in calculation. Safe riding!
Would you have a photo of your set up?
I checked the specs on the RTL > 105" long x 61.9" wide x 59.4" high. So two RTL's tight would be (105" x2) = 210" /12 = 17.5 feet. I have a 7 x 16 V-nose enclosed trailer that can handle my Spyder...
I agree. I personally never had a Facebook account, but I finally decided to set one up so I could access this group. Well worth it. Strictly technical only topics here with lots of good...
Kudos to Roger! What a brilliant app that every Spyder owner should have and learn to use. Dealers should be recommending this app to everyone they sell Spyders to.
If you want to stay away from the Kuhmo, and keep the OEM size, try the Toyo Proxes 4 : http://www.toyotires.ca/tire/pattern/proxes-4. I did and was able to get one easily from a local Toyo dealer,...
I keep my Spyder lifted off the ground in my garage with two low profile jacks when I store it for the winter months to prevent this from possibly happening. I would even say it is more likely to...
Some vibration is inherent in these machines due to the belt length. You might try getting the laser alignment to eliminate the possibility that it is front end related. Also, you did not state how...
I was just wondering if anyone here with a 2014 or 2015 semi automatic Spyder has changed the transmission oil filter cover on their machine themselves. Did you take the machine to the dealer to have...
Your frunk latch may need adjustment so it closes the frunk lid tighter on the rubber seal. Try that first.
Gramatically speaking, "A" or "C". "B" and "C" show possession such that "C" shows plural possession, ie. belongs to all veterans. "B" shows individual possession, ie. belongs to one veteran. It...
I have never been to a Spyderfest or a Spyderquest because I am a newbie to "Spydering" this year. Have read about them somewhat on here but could someone who has been to both events tell me how they...
There have been new specs put out on belt tension by BRP in a TST (Technical Service Tips) Bulletin in June 2015. Here is a link to comments I received from a BRP Certified Spyder Technician and...
Here is the link to a previous post on belt tension where I posted the June 2015 TST (Technical Service Tips) Bulletin from BRP.

If I don't find what I am looking for in a Shop Manual, I always do a search on YouTube. It just so happens that Lamonster and Finless Bob have posted two excellent videos there on how to remove the...
I was just thinking that some of these heros could probably still ride a specially equipped Spyder to join the rest of us riding. It would be an honor to have them in our group.
I have been reading the posts on this thread and although I am so far one of the luckier ones with no DESS problems, I feel for those having the problems. I agree with Larry here that there should be...
