I use an x-large m/cycle cover also. It covers everything except the front wheels including Madstad screen, Givi side cases and Givi top box and bar end mirrors. Doesn't leave much uncovered when...

Yeah, will be in Newcastle for the AGM. Give me a shout when you come down to the big island. Always a spare bed for weary travellers.
Has anyone fitted the after market 30 tooth front sprocket, if so could you share your thoughts about same. I've just finished a 6500 km trip, 5,207 kms of which I logged for petrol, and used 399...
Welcome Robbie to Spyder Lovers and to the Spyder community.
Hope you have as much fun as the rest of us.
Well, I'm back at last. 6500 Kms and almost 5 weeks. I've managed to catch up with lots of family and old friends, and only got wet twice. I have to say a big thank you to Martin and Marion for...
I'm off on Thursday to put some more miles on the Spyder. I'm going from Tassie to Rockhampton via Shepparton, Dubbo, Coonabarrabran, etc, and coming home via the Coast. Away for 4 weeks, and about...
Coxy, not meaning any disrespect to Black Widow, but I think it shows that our American brothers do not realize the premium those of us outside of the USA pay on spares and extras. The one that got...
I was just wondering if any Aussie Spyder owners have received notification about renewing their roadside assist for their second year. Apparently it is to be offered if you wish to pay for it. It...
No problems. If that's the worse I'm called, I'll consider myself very fortunate.
You really don't have to remove the trunk to install the sway bar. Just remove the bolts underneath, and slacken the top bolts a little, and you can tip the front of the trunk up enough to remove...
Hi there, Babeshorty, and welcome to the best forum on the net. When you pick up your Spyder, send us some photos, and be assured, you will have fun. Trust Me.
Video played fine for me.
Hey, thanks for that. That was something I wasn't aware of.
Thanks everyone for you opinions on the comfort seat. I think I'll wait awhile and see if I can get a better deal on e-bay later. It's the shipping charges to Australia that's the killer. Plus the...
Can anyone pass on their views on the BRP Comfort Seat. Are they worth getting, and are they more comfortable than the stock seat. There are a few going on e-bay at the moment and was considering...
1958 started riding on a 197cc Villiers engined Frances Barnett. Then a 200cc Triumph Tiger Cub, then in 1964 A Triumph Tiger 110.
Many happy memories.
This guy has to be crazy, but you have to admire his guts.

Plus the dealer has to pay a monthly fee to BRP to actually receive the updates.
Yes they are available in the U.S.A. You may not be aware that IKON is a continuation of the previously known KONI shocks. The business was bought by an Ausie company that previously made said KONI...

Eric, sounds like you have the same sort of setup as me (without the towbar). My wife is as happy as a pig in the proverbial on the back of mine, and I have got a sheepskin cover on my seat, and...
I have reached the point where I allow another15/30 minutes, everytime I stop. Must admit it was easier when I was a smoker, just light up another ciggy, but I QUIT 6 months ago. Oh well, I'm...
Hi Lamont,
I really think that a major reason for a lot of the griping is borne out of frustration with BRP. We are told that BRP reads the forums, and consequently knows the problems, but nothing...
Your perfectly correct. 24 Spyder owners in Tasmania (not a very big state), only 3 on forum.

Hows This. Just noticed this doesn't show the rubber. This is from the electonic workshop manual

This does me just fine

You are only confined by your imagination
Maybe a Scorpion. Sounds better than a CanAm Lobster
Bob
Mine is a Spyder Not a Spider
Gazey, I thought I read somewhere that EBC do break pads for the Spyder. They definitely do them for other Canam products.
You really can't tighten those screws enough using the Torx driver in the tool kit provided. You have to use Torx socket that fits your socket set driver. Failing that, put a spanner on the square...
