• 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.

I can't say with certainly, not knowing what bracket for the Zumo you have, but an aftermarket bracket specific to the device is usually needed. Check GPSCity.com and see what they recommend.
 
You have everything you need except a bracket on the Spyder to start from. I am not sure what the handle bars are like on the 2013s but this is what I did on my 09 GS.

That is a RAM Mount bracket I got from GPS City.

The 660 plastic mount holes should line up with the Ram mount with four holes. The mount in your second picture should/could mount somewhere on the center handlebar, you'll just have to line that up when you're ready to start. You'll have to determine how you want to route the power cable, there is a handy hole in the center of your handlebar where the Can Am GPS mount routes its cable thru. Just pop the little plastic cover. You could then cut an opening in the plastic cover to allow the cable to pass thru and then cover up the hole in the handlebar. I went with the Can Am GPS mount, but they sure are proud of that hunk of aluminum.

Thanks for all the help, I'm not installing it tho! That's funny! Me install something....:roflblack::roflblack:. Taking it to the dealer to install...Hopefully they hide the cord well! They don't seem too knowledgable about much of anything with spyders. Asked if they could switch out my RS handle bar with the ST and they said without missing a beat that was impossible to do....ummm no its not from what I've read on here! grrrrrr. I wish i was mechanically inclined!:banghead:
