DIY'ers always find a way. :yes: :roflblack:

5speed, here's a week's worth of info on straight cut gears. Check it out. ...

This is a very good lesson to apply to many other aspects of life. By all means, put it to good use and use it often.

When you first fire up your spyder watch the tach and just as the needle reaches its peak RPM, it will drop back just a little, then shift into first or reverse and you won't hear that clunk. You...

Super Chocks were the best I'd ever seen but they are no longer manufactured or sold. So BK911's suggestion appears to currently be the best and safest way to go. However, 7'x12' enclosed seems to be...

I have the Aluma with SuperClamp SpyderChocks, which are removable. It's the best setup since sliced bread because it is a multi-use trailer. This Aluma, as mentioned here, has the slide away ramp. A...

Don't overthink it. Follow your owner's manual because it's a manufacturer's guide to proper maintenance and the longevity of your machine. Remember other people's suggestions are only opinions. Some...

Here's the results of my oil analysis of Amsoil at 10K miles.

Flagged data does not indicate an immediate need for maintenance action. Continue to observe the trend and monitor equipment and...

You and I couldn't live any further apart if we tried but we think exactly alike. I have a mindset that if my ride goes fubar miles from home, I just turn it into another adventure.

Yes! Never fuel up at a station while a tanker is filling the belowground tanks. And learn to run by the odometer and not the gas gauge. Some old school lessons are still applicable today. Always...

Depends on what I'm doing but mostly I raise my RT for an oil change. Car ramps for the front and a small conventional floor jack with a block of wood under the rear shock for the rear. If I'm...

From time to time, I bump into guys who own ATVs and ride 2-wheel motorcycles and the consensus out there among them is that Can-Am Spyders are an unreliable expensive piece of crap. Coupled with...

Being what it is BRP built a machine that's kept us diehard M/C riders on the roads much longer than we should be, possibly. :roflblack: One of the things I can not justify is BRP's choice to install...

If I needed to replace mine, I'd fly to Alabama, pick that puppy up, and ride it home.

Nice job baxter. When do you plan on hitting Nunavut and Hawaii?

:roflblack: Now we run heated clothing but your post reminds me of our earlier days. The wife and I were not paying attention to our surroundings on a trip we'd made to the high desert area of the...

If the insurance company overrides the tech's recommendation to replace the frame as it could be a future safety issue, the insurance company is incurring a huge liability. JMHO

If you connect with the right customer he/she'll gladly pay you twice what you're asking. Good luck.

Superchocks are not made just for Spyders. They accommodate just about any onroad/offroad 3 or 4 wheel machine. Try some other sites to advertise them 4sale. Spyders are a very small market compared...

Spyderchocks are kind of like Spyder seats. Shipping costs make them nearly worthless.

Yes, 30 miles is an exaggeration. Several of us left a late evening meeting one summer night and the gentleman with the tailgunner on his spyder left the parking lot first. A mile away down a...

Yep, I live about 30 miles from a fellow spyder rider who has a tailgunner and I can hear him every time he fires up and leaves his house.

A hidden disaster waiting to happen if you put her on a spyder. My wife is almost the same as yours. If we were away from home and something happened to me and I couldn't drive, my wife's well being...

No, just pony up and go with the motorcycle 4 pack. You don't need the hassle of swapping them from vehicle to vehicle.

Order 4, and beware. They are or can be a PITA to set up. But once they're working they are GREAT. From then on you don't have to get down on the ground to check that dam rear tire. One problem I've...

Do Tri-Glides still use the starting motor for reverse?

Probably because 91 gives you more power and economy. :yikes: :roflblack:

I ran my oil for 10,000 miles and just sent a sample in for analysis. I use Amsoil 10W40 and I have 60,000 miles on the spyder. Why did BRP pick 9,300? Previous analysis at 9,300 returned still...

Why do people that don't own horses or cows, wear cowboy boots? And then, some wouldn't be caught dead wearing a vest or cowboy boots.
