I'm located in Morgan Hill (between South San Jose & Gilroy) I'll probably meet you at the resturant in Hollister as well. :clap:

My California emissions SM5 08' has had a miss or what I call sputtering. It seems to be getting worse and it only does so around 3500-4500 rpm. This is when it is at a steady cruise (I have cruise...

:agree:

The Urals are fun around town but limited on long trips, although I know a friend that rode his from San Jose Ca to Death Valley. Thats a long trip at 60mph. I had a Velorex 562 sidecar...

I've had mine up to 122 and held it there until my exit came up:gaah:, the sport bike that was running next to me was surprised I think. I still had throttle left even at that speed.

I would think service would be the top priority, at least to me anyway. The RT is a great machine that has been designed very well. I hope that BRP will push to make sure the customer is well taken...

I just installed the KewlMetal air cleaner last weekend and I do not find the intake noise offensive. It reminds me of my younger days on my Super Sport when I'd flip the air cleaner cover to get...

:clap:
Happy Thanksgiving to all Spyderlovers. I hope everyone has a great day with their families.

I just rode the RT on Monday and agree with Scotty's comments. I had to ride with a tour group and did not really get out of 4th gear. Although the Can Am Rep. noted the power difference from the RS...

I started to get a Brake Fault on the ride down to the LA meet but everything worked fine so I didn't get it checked until my return home. I took it in to my dealer and when hooked up to the computer...

How about setting up a Gymkana like some of the sport car guys do? I think that would be a blast for the spyder.

Mike

I replaced the stock reflector plate light with a LED light from Kragen and the license plate frame with one that has LED's across the top to light the plate from a motorcycle accessory dealer. I...

The Piaggio MP3 is a great scooter. The one your looking at is the 500cc which has good power and can cruise and be stable on the freeway. I have not had the opportunity to ride one but others I...

Glad you enjoyed your brief stint on the new RT, reminds me of that old song,
"She will have fun fun fun til her daddy takes the T-Bird away" Except in your case "Lamonster had fun fun fun til BRP...

My Spyder came up with the Brake Failure code on the trip to LA for the BRP
celebration. I still had brakes and I checked the fluid so I conitinued on and
it remained on for my trip home. I took...

I'd check with Bushtec as to how much pressure they recommend in the shocks, but several of my friends have Bushtec trailers and the tires ae some what / \ when loaded. You should still have several...

Wow, was Robo Cop near by? Spyder on steroids:ohyea: Something for everyone.

I still like A the best. B & C has to much going on. As they say "KISS"
other wise known as "Keep it simple Stupid". I still would like it on a Black shirt so it stands out. IMHO :2thumbs:

Mike

Mine started that and I thought it was related to temperature because it would only come on with outside temps 90 degrees or higher. Once cooled down it would go away. My dealer pulled up the errors...

I like it, great for my yellow spyder. I would prefer the shirt to be Black offered in long or short sleeves.

Thanks

Go for it!!! :yes:
You will have a BLAST. My two wheelers have gotten little use since getting the Spyder

:D:clap:
Great idea Lamonster

I agree with Scotty, one of the reasons most purchase the Spyder is due to not wanting the instability of a side car. I currently have a Velorex sidecar attached to a BMW R100RT and I have the...

Hi Pat,

My Spyder started that about a month ago but it only happens if the outside temperature is 90 or higher and I was in Paso Robles when it was 105 degrees. Then it came on again when I hit...

welcome

Are you sure the BRP with Sport Rack is more $$??

My Dealer said the seat was about $450 and the sport rack with backrest is about $450. My Corbin with both backrests lists about $1100. By the...

I have the Corbin seat and I find it confortable and so does my wife.

I've set on the BRP seat and it compares to the Corbin very well. If I had it to do again I'd go for the BRP due to the...

:(

When I talked to ISCI at LA they said the brake kit might run around $1400.

Sorry but that is too pricey for my budget. I hope they will sharpen their pencils and come up with a more...

:clap::clap::clap:
:agree:


I second that, it was a First Class event. I can't say of all the primier models I've purchased over the years no other manufacturer has thrown a event like BRP in LA...

Bottom line loud exhausts just cause stupid laws to be invoked against us.

I was sitting in a out door cafe in Solvang CA when a bunch of bikes showed up. I noticed several customers remarking on...
