Hoping for help here...

Having no luck finding the front VIN, lower frame, on my 2008 Spyder. Have to show it to California DMV. I called my dealer and they said I have to take the trunk out????...

OK, so it looks like I have a crack that is so slight I overlooked it before. So, we will change that out.

Does anyone have feedback on where to order the part? I could order from the local...

Thanks for the info everyone. I will finally will be able to do a thorough look this morning. Dealer agreed it's probably this issue.

Much appreciated,

Karla

Hey, thanks for the input, everyone. I will check those again, I had looked at the reservoir and what I could see of the hoses before, and saw nothing wrong. But, who knows, it's worth another try. ...

Hi Guys,

Just wanting to pick your brains.

I have a premier edition Spyder with an infrequent, strange problem. I ride my Spyder almost daily as my normal commute vehicle. I live in the San...

Hello everyone,

I have a 2008 (premier edition) Spyder. I am the original owner, put about 30k miles or so on it. A couple of days ago I got a few miles from home and the fender support broke...

Thanks guys- good ideas. I will check on the cost of replacement parts, but these are excellent ideas! Thanks again!

Okay, so obviously I am not very technical/mechanical. But I am somewhat handy, and can RTFM when necessary. Here's my situation, in my own uneducated/untechnical words:

2008 Spyder (premier...

Wow, thanks you guys- this is good information and I will inquire as to which generation I have on my brakes. Since I have had this checked/worked on over and over, I was told that even though I am...

It's not "once in a while"- it's everytime...

I have had the brakes worked on over and over, and they have even been replaced under waranty/recall last spring. The parking brake has also been adjusted/fixed over and over. Something somewhere...

Hello all,

I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this. This video is with the Spyder in neutral, with my just slowly rolling the Spyder backwards in my garage. I have asked my dealer to...

I just got my fix about a week ago. I will give just a little more time then vote. I ride four out of five working days, and some on weekends, so I will feel confident in my assessment, once I...

Mofa- You aren't kidding this thing is fast! It WANTS to go fast! I, like you, am a former Ural owner- and compared to that ride it's a bullet!!:yikes: And so wonderfully stable- I have almost...

I too am interested in the feedback of others who have had this fix. I just got my update about a week ago and haven't had any incidents since. I commute daily, so I think that's a pretty accurate...

Though I'm not saying an exact number, I will say I'm "right up there with ya" I haven't topped out yet, cuz I keep running out of room/road. I am no speed demon, but with this machine, I can't...

Hello,

I must confess I need to visit this site more often- this steering problem, could you describe it? Or, point me to a more appropriate thread that discusses the problem?

I ask...

Dang Right!!!

That is always my 1st choice, if I can. If not, then designated motorcycle parking if available. Then, either right up close where I can see it, or way way to the back, nose out.

that is A LOT of cruising! That's great!!!

I just hit 12,000 miles yesterday. Had the Spyder for 14 months! I just LOVE this machine!!!

To me, what's weird with mine is that I never had noise in 10k+ miles. Not until they worked on my parking brake (Yes, I know they're the same equipment-) did I have one screach. Dealer says they...

Not on the bike, on me. I'm not a complainer, in fact, this has happened many times to me and I never really thought so much of it, until my husband noticed it. I keep getting a blister on my right...

Okay, so I have over 11k miles on my Spyder, and never had the squeaks until the 2nd adjustment to the parking brake. My dealer (is fantastic, and) is taking care of me on this. But, reading this...

For me it's Safety + SPEED

Okay -I have become a speed junkie! But I can't help it- 'Mordrid' :spyder:wants to go fast! Only trouble is, I only live 3 miles from work, so the commute just...

We used to ride 2-up, then my Hubby decided he wanted me to have my own, so he would be more comfy and we could also take the dog. My first ride was a sidecar rig, that was a blast and a great way...

:2thumbs: So glad you're having so much fun!!!

You are right about the power- I freaking love this machine! Ha- in fact, it's so fast and the throttle response is so amazing that it was the...

Can't make it, but this is a ride that would be right up my ally. Especially since I should have my Spyder back from the shop right about then :(

I know you gave a lot of notice, but for me, I...

Hey Jim,

I live in AZ, but must admit I am ignorant about where Red Rock is? What dealer are you using? I go to Ride Now in Phoenix, they are very well versed, very helpful overall. Between...

Yahoo!!

Can-Am steps up to the plate! My belt is being replaced under warranty! Thanks so much for all your help, Tony! :yes:

-Karla

p.s. My service guy said that "all of them are...

Tony,

Is there some sort of 'recall number' or update number or whatever that I should tell my dealer about, or just insist that they call Can-Am and push?
I really like my dealer, and my...

Does anyone know where I might be able to buy a new drive belt for my Spyder that would be LESS than $325? :shocked:

Caught a rock in the belt, it just wedged right in there, and has now pierced...
