....I have some drops of coolant at the coolant
reservoir hoses. Hopefully just needs the clamps tighten a little bit.
So will see what happens next. ....
ENJOY YOUR LIFE WITH A SPYDER
Ryde with a Friend and be Safe
Well, mine is the 2021 base model, so the other day I installed the blinker lights on my mirrors. Tomorrow I'm taking the frunk off and installing both signature lights, and the frunk liner. I wasn't going to get the liner but it was a good deal, plus it'll help keep scratches off my extra helmet I carry. Once I get done with that, if I have time, I'm installing the LED's that go under the tail lights that I bought from Slingmods. After that, it's replacing the sway bar, and putting on the color match stick-ons I got from canamspyderaccessories. I may buy handlebar mirrors as well. Even though I have the wide view mirrors, I still can't see that well behind me. I have to move to the side to see directly behind me.
Oh yea, I also installed the Utopia backrest. What a great investment that was. My back didn't bother me at all the other day. The other one I had was too small and didn't support my lower back that well.
Well this really stinks. Got my front end off this morning to install the signature lights and after taking it all apart, I noticed 1 light wasn't fitting correctly. Turns out, they sent me 2 right hand lights. So now I have to return them because they don't know when they'll be getting a left one in. So I called lamonstergarage and verified they had them in stock. They're shipping them 2 day, which cost a little, but my poor bike is apart and I'm not putting it all back together just to have to take it apart again.
Man I'm bummed over this but I guess it is what it is. At least I got the frunk liner installed. I guess this weekend I'll spend time putting the afterburner lights on that I bought from Slingmods.
Installed Admore light kit for my SH36 Shad saddlebags. Thanks to great assistance from Campermac, and Mikthebik. Have amber signals on the Shad cases, a red brake flash when applying brakes, steady with brake pedal depressed, and red running light.

I'm thinking a lot of owners who got their new trikes with parts missing are sitting on theirs making "VROOM, VROOM" sounds.
Not that there's anything wrong with that. Who can blame them ????

Dealers can't release bikes until the parts are received and installed. I guess you could go down to the dealer and sit on the crate and make sounds lol.
2022 Petrol Metallic RT Limited / 'PYDER'
Peter Pan has struck again!
Set up my phone and Sena combo to comm with others with a phone and in range of a cell tower. Phone answers automatically when in Bluetooth mode. Easy touch on phone to make outgoing calls. Just to be used for group rides. Next is upgrading the comm system from the old SMH5. Problem is, my wife just use it on our tours and it works great. Hard to justify spending hundreds on a new comm system.

Today I washed the Spyder and the wife and I went for a 3 hr ride. Cruising the back roads of Missouri. Nice day temperature wise 82deg
but was a windy day 15 to 20 MPH winds. When we got back this afternoon I was able to install some items on the Spyder my wife got
me for Christmas had to wait for weather to warm up enough. I put on the Spyder emblems in place of the BRP emblem on the frunk and
on the back trunk.I added chrome strips to the back of the saddle bags and beside the HMBL on the back trunk. Added chrome to the side
of the speakers or both sides. I put the glove box protectors on the Spyder. Also added the chrome and carbon fiber (SpyderRyder) emblems
on both front sides. IMG_2411.JPGIMG_2402.JPGIMG_2400.JPGIMG_2406.JPGIMG_2404.JPGIMG_2408.JPG
Ultimate Seat installed and tested for 150 miles or so. The boss and I are pretty darn happy so far!

Built an inside shield for my oversize brake pedal.
Too often I was stepping on the pedal linkage as
well as the pedal and not getting the correct pedal action.
Now my boot will be limited to pushing on the pedal only.

I can't help but laugh when I read this. I started riding in 2006. I had purchased my first bike, as a 40th birthday gift to myself. One day I was outside the garage and sitting on the bike as if though I was riding down the road, and making VROOM sounds. Then I looked over and the neighbors daughter (who had just turned 16) was sitting in a car that her father had bought for her. She was over there making those same sounds in anticipation of getting her drivers license. We nodded to each other and laughed.

Last year I moved into a new house. The new garage is much colder than my previous one.
This week, I finally added a pigtail for a battery tender. This is the first time I've ever run a battery tender on a Spyder, and I'm on my third one since 2010.
I also added the KOTT Screens and the Amber Turn Signals to the mirrors.
If it ain't broke, don't break it.

when my wife says I snore I tell her I'm dreaming I'm a spyder
Today was installation of the Lamonster Big Eye Mirrors. And the start of design work on the factory mirror delete panels.
I cannot tell you how nice it is to actually have functional, usable mirrors on my RT.
Can Am should be ashamed of the factory mirrors.
I also installed the BRP rear armrests for my wife - in the short spin around the neighborhood - she approved (short because we were having 40 - 50 mph winds today and the Spyder is not a lot of fun in high winds).
This weekend, the handlebar lid locks and my backrest should arrive as well.
Coolant Leak?
....I have some drops of coolant at the coolant
