    In my case, the dealer had a three week wait before he could even look at my Spyder. The only reason I waited and took it in was because it was still under (extended) warranty. My understanding is...

    Agree with this statement, year, model, and codes would help. If the codes are related to the mod then it might be good to remove the mod and see if the codes clear on their own. If the codes aren't...

    Today my Spyder was serviced for the P0340 code and indeed it needed the camshaft position sensor. Normally they wouldn't have had the part and I would have waited another week for the Spyder to get...

    And I would have appreciated that. I told my wife when this happened it's too bad it was at the beginning of the trip instead of the end because I could have found someone related to DW3 that likely...

    Good discussion as I always wondered too about the whole key/chip possibly causing battery or startup issues. Good to know there is no impact. With regards to the practice of leaving the key in the...

    My wife and I take turns on who is leading. It's about a 50/50 split. More times than not it's the flow of traffic and switching lanes that will cause us to change who is the lead. When we ride with...

    From what I read, the sales of small-gas engines (mowers, snow blower, leave blower, etc) would be banned by 2024 and portable gas-powered generators by 2028. Well at least it bans the sales and not...

    Without getting too off topic, from my experience, it's not the tread via distance that wears out the "average" travel trailer first but the walls of the tire giving out (especially if it's sitting...

    I didn't realize the new Maverick pickup was a hybrid...glad you're liking it. With regards to a Spyder Hybrid, about 10 years ago Can-Am did develop a concept version. Not sure why Can-Am decided...

    On social media, BRP and Can-Am have said they have no plans to discontinue the gas version of current lines. What is left unanswered is whether BRP (and Rotax) plans to continue to invest in...

    Wherever you buy and whatever you buy new, I wouldn't hesitate on concerns that Spyders are "assembled" at the dealership. Assembly from the crate isn't rocket science and it's extremely rare to hear...

    Harley Davidson finally got smart by branching off it's EV motorcycles to its own company as Livewire. The same goes with it's EV bicycles, Serial 1 (although those can be found at some dealerships)....

    If those are the original tires installed in 2017, it might be worth replacing them based on age as much as mileage. But I come from a trailer tire perspective that gets a little little nervous...

    Seam Smoaks just put up a video showing him changing the front sprocket. He's posted something similar in the past, but this video is a good "State of the Front Sprocket in 2022" summary. Topic of...

  24. Now or Wait Until Spring for First Oil Change?

    For what it's worth, the service department at my dealer brought up that the Kenda's seems to wear a lot quicker when overinflated (30 lbs vs 28 lbs likely isn't his definition of over-inflation)....
