• 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.

    Show me your trailer if you transport your Can Am

    Baxley Trailer Baxley GT2000 customized for the spyder. Great trailer. The entire bed drops down so you just drive on. Tracks like it is not even there. Has electric brakes as well.

    Lighting WOW Factor

    Just a quick shout out to TricLed for a great product. I just installed their newer version 360 Led Headlight lamps and matching fog lamps on my 2011 RTS. The difference in light is nothing short of amazing. Great product!! The lamps are on special at SlingMods.com for 109.00 for each set...

    ATGATT on Spyder = PTGATT?

    ATGATT - and a Mask when in public. I wear ATGATT because I do not trust others and most especially that "Murphy" person. But then again, I also am now wearing a mask in public. It may help, or it may not, but like ATGATT, it couldn't hurt!!

    Plastic knockout cover at steering base: what is it?

    Michael, They are referring to the center of the handlebars where a plastic plug is inserted for cosmetic purposes. If you use the OEM harness and mount the wiring goes through this hole and into the depths of the bike. The install kit includes a replacement "plug" with a notch for the cable...

    Tickets for ryding in Maryland and other places??

    An aquaintence of ours was pulled over in Maryland (in thier cage) and asked to justify why they were traveling on the road during a "lockdown." Because they were just out for a drive, they were ticketed for violation of the govenors' order to stay at home except for emergency or essential...

    998cc Radiator Hose Clamp Size??

    Thanks larryd. However, the ebay items are like the OEM, and I think you need a special tool to install these. I am looking to replace the original with a stainless steel screw type, and I need to know how big the hose is so I can get the right size.

    998cc Radiator Hose Clamp Size??

    This is a plea for some help from those of you who have done coolant changes on your bikes. Spyderlovers is such a great resource of information. You have saved me lots of time on past projects, and I am looking forward to your input. I want to do a radiator flush and fill on my 2011 RT-S. I...

    Headlights, keyed. Why?

    Boy am I embarrassed. I just went out to the garage and turned on the spyder and sure enough the headlights do not come on. I guess it's just when starting in the dark garage the parking lights are bright enough that I thought they were the headlights. Sorry for the misinformation. Please...

    Headlights, keyed. Why?

    2011 RT-S Lights DO come on when the key is turned to the ON position regardless of engine running. They will stay on as far as I know for the whole time the key is in the on position. Yes, there is a delay after shutdown before they turn off.

    Tom Tom Rider 550

    OOPS, I almost forgot one of the best features of the Rider 550. It can plan routes that they call thrill rides that chooses twisty roads and avoids interstates. You simply pick a destination and let it "Plan A Thrill." It works pretty well, and makes for some adventures that I would not have...

    Tom Tom Rider 550

    Yep, still using Tyre. There is a new "app" called MyRoute that is completely cloud based. It is OK, the I like the old Tyre better - maybe cause I am familiar with it. It is no longer a subscription based application. You can download the final version and use it free...
