• 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.

    Are 2020+ Trailer Hitches longer than older models? If so, how much?

    Mine does as well.

    Do you know the air pressure in your air bag when loaded? That may be part of my problem.

    Are 2020+ Trailer Hitches longer than older models? If so, how much?

    I think that's the route I may need to take. I guess with the small load the hitch takes length is not a big issue.

    Who said I am buying another hitch? I am asking how much longer the newer hitches are so I can make mine that length.

    Are 2020+ Trailer Hitches longer than older models? If so, how much?

    I have the BRP hitch from my 2012 and installed it on my 2022. Fits just fine except the ball contacts my license plate when the suspension travels up. I have adjusted the air bag control valve for more air pressure but it still hits the license plate. Pierre @Canam Spyder Accessories told me...

    Are 2020+ Trailer Hitches longer than older models? If so, how much?

    I was informed today that the 2020 and newer Spyders use a longer hitch than older models. Just wondering if anyone knows how much longer the newer one is?

    I agree, it is a very poor system for something this simple however if I can keep it working then I don't need to adjust the pressure manually when I go from 2up to one or vice versa.

    I did not get any pictures but if you look where the sensor is mounted it is just light metal. So, yes I twisted the mounting toward the rear of the bike and down very slightly to get the pressure I wanted in the air bag. Very simple to do and the same as lengthening the rod.

    Today I adjusted the control sensor mount till I got 60 psi with me on the bike. I reached up inside where the mount is with a small crescent wrench and twisted the bracket down toward the rear of the Spyder till I got the pressure I needed. Took it for a ride today, 400 km, and it worked much...

    Dropped the Spyder off at the dealer this morning and was told they could look at it. Called this afternoon and was told maybe the middle of July. Has anyone lengthened the control rod to raise the air bag pressure? I think I may try that as I would like to use the bike while I can.

    Checking with a dealer tomorrow and hopefully they know how these work. Thank you

    I tested the air pressure in mine tonight. I put a gauge on the schrader valve and started the machine. It pumps up to 38 psi with me on it. So I manually added up to 60 psi. I weigh 225. Started the bike again and bounced the bike around just sitting in my shop and it deflated down to 38 psi...

    Will this work for Hauling 2 RTS’s in enclosed trailer?

    Can’t see much wrong with the op’s drawing. Just make sure the working load limit (WLL) of the straps and anchor points are equal to or greater than the weight of both Spyders.

    I too would like to know what was getting broken as the video doesn’t show this well. I found my licence plate was getting bent from touching the trailer hitch ball when bottoming out. I don’t want to spend $900 on a different rear shock so am looking for options.
