• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

2014 Can Am Spyder Release Date

my wish for the 2014

please add an option or a button you can push that makes it drive straight and not hunt from side to side. Something they forgot to do when when they built my 2013 rt limited
 
2013RTS

I guess we were lucky when the red head [my lady friend ] bought her 2013 RTS.I hated the thing for the first 2000 miles.I had a hard time keeping it on the road.She bought it on the 27th of may.We put 700 miles on it and then left for a 5000 mile trip out west.We were on the road over two weeks.45 mph cross winds across Kansas.The bike handled them well.The temp was pushing 100 degrees about every day and my gas tank didn't boil once.THe gas cap was a little warm but not hot.Now I can ride down the interstate 75 or 80 mph and the bike goes straight as an arrow and steady as a rock.I guess it took me that long to learn how to ride that thing.I have been ridding two wheels for the last 50+ years and I am 73 years old.All I can say is I think it is a great machine and I love to ride it.I still have and ride my 1300 Yamaha road star.The check engine light came on,we shut it off and restarted back up and every thing wea fine.Must have been made on a wed.
 
No matter what they come up with,

no matter when and no matter what it costs there will still be complaints.

I'm starting to get the rash that Scotty (NancysToy) has... must be a contagious allergy out there called MIS-INFORMED DEALER-ITIS!!!:banghead::banghead::banghead:

I own a 2013 RT-S and I was having the same issue. Told the dealer's :spyder2: tech... change in the ball joints and now I have a rYde that goes straight as an arrow... on the interstate going 75mph I can let go of both hands (not that I encourage it), and I jog a few seconds.

Others have had the balljoints replaced, and some has gone as far as getting the machine aligned, swapped tires and shocks... and eventually it got corrected.

Please... go to your dealer(s) let them know that this is not right, and have them make it. If they snub you or give you the "it's normal" line... find another dealer!nojoke
 
:agree: that's not about release dates; it's about proper training. :thumbup:
Let's hope that BRP can find a way to ensure that the folks who work on our bikes, actually know what they're doing!
 
Well I can tell you my 2012 RT SE5 found me before I was looking for her. So the new one will be fun to look at but as long as she will let me ride her we should have a long ride time together. 30 year of riding and I love this thing. :yes::ohyea:
 
I cant complain about anything but the heat. It is freaking hot. The gas sizzling is just something I have to live with. It won't ignite unless there is a spark. Just hope I don't have a static pop.... Other than my chestnuts roasting Im happy with the two 2013 's i have.
 
Get rid of the belt and replace it with drive shaft. Better gas mileage, better access panels. easy diy maintenance.
