• 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.

    600mi Break-In not achieved in 1-year?

    I'm embarrassed to say, but I have had my 2014 Can-Am Spyder RS for 1-year now but I have only put on it 432 miles. The Break-In inspection is 600-miles but there's no mention of "and/or X months". Should I do my break-in inspection now or keep riding to 600mis? Thanks.

    2014 RS SM5 - Can not shift in reverse anymore

    Still haven't fixed it. I've determined something is wrong at the solenoid. The reverse release button on the left handlebar works as I hear the relay under the frunk click. The solenoid that pulls the cable near the shift lever doesn't move though. The wires seem to be connected. If I...

    2014 RS SM5 - Can not shift in reverse anymore

    Yep. Like I said, the foot lever is hard as a rock trying to go downward from 1st gear even though I hear the Reverse Actuator relay clicking. There's probably something not working between the RA relay and the solenoid that unlocks the reverse gear. I'll have to take off some more panels to...

    2014 RS SM5 - Can not shift in reverse anymore

    Where's this cable? The foot shift lever is a shaft that goes straight into the trans casing. The actuation system seems to be solely electronic. Is this an internal or external solenoid?

    2014 RS SM5 - Can not shift in reverse anymore

    Won't shift down to reverse anymore. Yes, I'm pushing the left hand button. I saw something about the F7 fuse on 2012-prior models. I have a "Left" and "Right" fuse panel on my 2014. I checked both F7 fuses, both are good. None of the fuses say anything about Reverse. There is a Reverse...

    Confirmation if BRP Hitches fit RS

    I can't seem to find definitive confirmation whether or not (and why) the BRP ST or RT hitch fits the RS. I saw one post that said Lamonster confirmed it did NOT fit, but I can't imagine why. I'm mostly concerned with the mechanical fit, I can do without the harness/electronics/lighting.

    2014 RS list price

    I paid $14,300 for my '14 RS. They charged me $0 for "Freight", "vehicle prep" & "delivery", which is important because another dealer wanted to charge over $100 for this and was non-negotiable. I also paid $7.50 "tire tax" and a $75 "documentation fee" as well as standard sales tax and my...

    How to Activate Cruise Control on Base RS

    I cut my blank down to use as a switch just like yours. You also have to cut the inside overhang to allow it to fully engage. Only problem now is, since it's only one bolt in the middle, the "switch" rotates in a circle. I did not use a spring for the left hole. Just a solid plastic shaft with...

    There's a spot on the side of the seat that if you Dremel a little bit, saddle bags will appear on each side. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    How to Activate Cruise Control on Base RS

    Ha, yea, that's a good idea not to ryde. Get better. Sounds like you might not have enough pressure on the left spring assembly. This is definitely the trickiest part of this mod. I'm convinced there isn't supposed to be a spring there at all, or if there is, a very short and very tight...

    How to Activate Cruise Control on Base RS

    Did you test it yet? I'm curious to see if the spring set-up on the left hole has enough pressure to hold down the ON switch. I couldn't figure out if there needed to be a spring'ed ball or a solid shaft in that hole.

    How to Activate Cruise Control on Base RS

    Yea, don't use a Dremel. Took a couple of minutes with a box cutter razor blade. The plastic is very brittle, which makes it easy to shave, but also easy to f' up. I got mine super smooth & round with only vertical strokes with a razor blade. Those inserts look perfect! Where did you...
