• 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 Plug & Play Trailer wiring harnesses still available?

    Hi. Just bought a 2009 RS roadster and a Blackhawk pull behind trailer (brand new barn find). I need a harness for the bike. It has a 4-pin round connector. Does anyone know if there are any still available? If not, I can make one, but I would like a Plug and Play. Thanks.

    1330cc 2015 RTL died on road - anyone else? Any fixes?

    Electrical problems on vehicles that have circuit's that interconnect with one another and use communication circuits to talk to each other can be difficult without special tools to diagnose. Was looking at CAN hi and low circuits for open or shorts because of the way the bike quit. Then started...

    1330cc 2015 RTL died on road - anyone else? Any fixes?

    Well finally found and fixed problem thanks to IdahoMtnSpyder steering me in right direction. Did as you suggested with jumping terminals even though hazard lights worked, and dash powered up. Then checked voltages coming from bike and found only 1.5 volts to terminal CL-8 and park switch...

    1330cc 2015 RTL died on road - anyone else? Any fixes?

    Excellent advice. Retired from a Chevrolet dealership where I worked for 43 years specializing in transmissions and electrical diagnosis and Can Am ranks right up there with the technology of today's vehicles. I retired for 2 reasons, I got hurt in an accident at work and don't want to work on...

    Thanks Jetfixer and UtahPete for the diagrams. I'M all done for today. Been at it since 8:00 this morning and it's now 8:00PM. Kept me up last night thinking about it. Taking this thing apart with a sore back is not fun especially when you have to figure out what panel to take off next and...

    1330cc 2015 RTL died on road - anyone else? Any fixes?

    I put the battery charger on and turned the key on and the instrument panel still doesn't light. When I turn the kill switch on and off the fuel pump will run, but not when the key is cycled and still no dash lights.

    1330cc 2015 RTL died on road - anyone else? Any fixes?

    Thanks for the diagram. I copied and printed it. I did swap that relay with one from R/S fuse / relay box with ECM/ignition switch relay and still the same. I'm in the process of removing ignition switch and is not for the faint of heart but now with the diagram I can check feed from switch to...

    Spyders passing HDs

    My wife and I went to Lake George Americade 2021 and the 2 wheel bikers outside of town would wave (in town your arm would be out all the time) But none of the Can Am riders would wave and there was at least a 20 - 30 of them that we pass. We were at Spyderquest a couple of weeks before that...
