Good point. Worth a test. Here are three pressure checks on the rear tire. I decided to try it with the valve towards the top (I usually roll the Spyder to get the valve on the bottom.)...

I bought this from Amazon. OK price and good angle for reading the rear tire.

My wife and I bought a 2013 Spyder RT Limited with 16K miles on it. The scoops are there so it appears all recalls had been done. We did the AZ Teams training for 3 wheel motorcycle in August so it...
I have the plug kit and small compressor as well. But how to hook up the compressor? A couple of alligator clips would be OK, after all how often will I use it? But for my analytical brain I wanted a...
My idle jumps the same: 1300-1400. Weird, but it runs great. I just try to keep it above 4000RPM. Haven't had it in 5th gear yet. 4th gear at 70mph runs great. I'm glad I have cruise control :)
I'm with Eckhard on this. Cleaning up the the splines would be a good thing to try. Use a dremel cutting wheel, small file, and wire brush. Let us know how things work out. It's amazing how many "if...
Great advice! No leaks from the drain plugs so far. I had a minor seep on the oil filter. A slight tightening of the screws seems to have stopped it.
The torque wrench is from Harbor Freight, so...
I'm doing my first oil change on my 2013 Spyder RT. Stupid torque wrench clicks so fast I'm never sure if it's set right or just messing with me. That said I'm pretty sure I cranked it too tight....
For quick and easy lifting, I have this harbor freight aluminum jack. A little small for most auto/truck work, but great for the Spyder. It got the back wheel off the ground, no problem.174966
Thanks for the feedback. One less thing to worry about!
I've ordered the belt tensioner from roadster renovation. My instinct says the belt is too tight. With the tensioner in place I will back it...
My wife and I have trouble seeing the turn signal indicators on the dash panel. Our Phoenix sun is too bright to show this indicator thru the dark smoke lenses on our helmets. I bought the Can-Am...
I have a 2013 Spyder RT Limited. I had to replace the belt shortly after I purchased the Spyder in May, 2019 due to a hole punched thru the belt by a pebble. Since then I have noticed the new belt...
We're waiting for better weather in Phoenix. Get up at 5am to 90° weather. By the time you get back from a ride it's 105°. Last Thursday-Friday we completed the 3wheel MC course with Team Arizona....
Maybe in the fall we'll see if there is some interest in doing some common Spyder events like group rides, how-to workshops, cool spyder upgrades, contests, or whatever. Deb and I are in the East...
I've had my 2013 Spyder RT for 3 months. We had fun until the weather went above 110. The Spyder came with a backrest (Utopia?) I see a number of options on Ebay. Just a couple nuts and bolts under...
Or you can put the straw on the end of the turkey baster and throw the straw away. Less mess to clean up on the turkey, I mean baster ;)
We are interested. - John & Deb, Gilbert.
I got a small pebble between the belt and sprocket on my 2013 RT Spyder. It punched a hole about 1/8 inch in diameter thru the belt. It was in from the edge about 1/4 inch.Took some careful work to...
