Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all fellow Spyder Riders.

Take care of yourself and each other every day.

It is a good one and the other amazing thing is if you get there before 9:00Am to order it is only $9.00 CND, that is only $3.00 US with the current exchange rate, LOL ( it is actually $6.75 US)...

As the snow is coming down in Calgary Alberta I liked to think of a great breakfast place we ride to at least a couple time a month in the summer. It is called Maesie's Nook in Didsbury Alberta.

Glad you made it home safely. At the risk of getting beat up regarding tire types used I did want to pass on my experience with the Kenda OEM tires. From all the tire information on the Kendas I...

I wanted to pass alone my experience, as you mention riding in the rain and washing the bike. I checked the outer fuse cover box after I had read about the issue in another tread. I noticed I was...

Just spoke with BRP Canada and it looks like I am still on the brake light re-call list. In reading the re-call bulletin for the 2022 RTL they will replace the spring on the brake light switch.

Plus 1 on BajaRon using a warm water wet cloth/towel, have been doing the same thing for years, use the same process on the shield. A quick wax on the body work and Plexis on the windshield makes it...

Last August 2022 about a week after I picked up the new RTL I noticed the brake light was staying on even after the bike was turned off. Started moving the brake pedal and heard a faint click. As I...

Sorry, my point was to clarify using any oil that meets the specs required, from the lowest priced to the highest priced, from manufacturer's recommended to supposed far better oils from a spec sheet...

Just curious when was the last time anyone on the forum heard of an engine issue due to the oil they used?

98% of the time its myself and my favorite passenger for over 40 years of 2 wheeled, now 3 wheeled riding. It offers the most flexibility to travel how we like and as someone mentioned having that...

We just picked up our first Spyder, 2022 RTL in August 2022. Managed to get our first good trip in from Calgary to Vancouver Island BC to visit my sister and friends, about 3,600 KM round trip....

In my experience 45 years of riding motorcycles and now the Spyder, checking tire pressures is the most overlooked pre-ride inspection thing out there. As my wife and I toured over the years I would...

I use battery maintainer for the long winter storage months in Alberta. Put battery maintainer on once a month for about 2 days then take it off which helps my peace of mind in not leaving it on all...

Mbv I have the exact same issue on my 2022 RTL, you can definitely feel the difference in heat between left and right grips. For me it will be on the list of things to check on the first service.

I was at my local dealer in Red Deer AB Canada a few days ago getting a faulty rear brake light switch replaced and noticed they had several Sea-to-Sky, RTL, RT, Ryker units on the showroom floor,...

I had a look at the brake light switch and watched it as I pushed the brake petal, you can see the plunger on the switch being pulled out, which activates the brake light. As I release the brake...

Thanks for the replies guys. Just returned from the dealer, they cleaned and lubed the switch but the tech stated the plunger that comes out of the switch is sticking so a new replacement switch on...

Just wondering if anyone has any ideas why the brake lights are staying on after ignition is turned off and key remove?

The wait is over, just received a call from my dealer, the parts have arrived as well as all the accessories, being installed today and picking it up tomorrow. Will post pictures in a few days.:yes:...

Going to use a 5' Ring terminal cable to Mono plug to go from the battery to under the riders seat. Then a 2' cable extension for the passenger heated gear or a SAE connector for the battery tender.

Well some good new I suppose, just came from my dealer and they received the 2022 RTL on Monday but of course missing parts, so the agonizing wait continues, :gaah:

Seems to be no average time for...

Just started reading your ride report, great writeup.

When you mentioned going through Carrington SD and taking the picture of the Chieftain Motel I had a flash back. 2 years ago we did a big...

AJ, 50 years of riding, over 22 brands and models, +1 on your comments, still having fun, (hope to continue if my Spyder ever shows up), ........................:riding:

Seagull interesting you have yours sitting at the dealer, although missing parts and had placed your order in April of this year. I put a deposit down on a 2022 RTL last year Nov.1/21, still no word...
