• 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.

    Is it true that Spyders do not need to be alined?

    Yep I am Laura Brito who started the Wetcanvas glass forums, and am one of the old timers. I teach young people here in Mexico how to do Jewelry Crafts and make a living, and more. I am rather quiet now, but before I was rather well known. hehe Nice to meet you!

    Is it true that Spyders do not need to be alined?

    Bought it here, took me a while to find one, they are sold here though. We have a few dealers as well who do not cater to us, they think they are doing us a favor. Yes I have complained. But I guess we are not a very high priority. I am going to see about trying to do it myself. I am able to do...

    Is it true that Spyders do not need to be alined?

    No joke. It looks like BRP is teaching the guys here in Mexico this. They tell me even the manual says nothing about getting a Spyder Aligned. I have been made fun of, eyes rolled, and comments that is close to bullying. I find this so frustrating because this is what I am dealing with here...

    Is it true that Spyders do not need to be alined?

    haha well they know me as Mia. That is why. But they do know me! haha, I don't ride much with them due to the crazy speed they go at, and I am thinking of going on my own and meeting them wherever it is we are going instead. After all I have someone who follows me the whole way anyway (for...

    Is it true that Spyders do not need to be alined?

    Even BRP recommended I do this. But here in Mexico the Technicians say NO. They have been pretty much putting me down on this, and I am tired of it, I paid really good money for my bike and I should be able to get things taken care of, like a basic thing as Alignment. Ah you guys are sweet...

    Is it true that Spyders do not need to be alined?

    I am pretty sure I need an alinement. My bike vibrates somewhat and we have loads of holes in the roads, speed bumps, etc here....it makes sense to me to do this. But I am told that NO that spyders do not need this. I do not believe this of course. Why would laser alinement exist for spyders...

    Why the dislike?

    I was out riding around, stopped by 3 harleys here in Mexico, they do the whole leather gear thing and everything, they looked at me, saw I was a woman (not that means anything) and after buying some ice cream I heard one of them say (so I could hear it) that he would buy 3 harleys before he...

    Bad Key

    Me too, I am 3 hours of hard riding to get to a dealer, for me, it is not a trip I want to take again (did it for the first service) until I need my next service, as it is really hard on me overall, 2 hours or 3 I do ok, but 3 going and 3 coming back is hard and it is hard riding, going about 75...

    Bad Key

    My nightmare about having only 1 key was fixed by me, I ordered to blanks from the US, then I had to worry about whoever would cut the key (as BRP doesn't do that) then have BRP program them. Which all went just fine, luckily. BUT now I had my first DESS error and I am completely worried and...

    Do I was in the back parking lot of a Walmart here, waiting on a phone call that I needed to get. Once I got tired of waiting tried to turn on my bike, and guess what? I got the dreaded DESS error! Arg!! I took the key out and let it power down, and tried again and it started up just fine. I was...
