• 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.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Because I like to do things the hard way. 🤣

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Thanks, that's a nice idea. I found some smaller and more compact ones, as well as SAE extension cables for when I need a little more reach. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BHYY82NF?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0824S27JB?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

    I just ordered BUDS w/ Megatech license.

    I love it. The custom tune really woke up the motor, and I'm sure added several hp. I also modified the pedal vs. throttle opening map to increase responsiveness in the throttle ranges above 40%, and reduce how far I need to twist my wrist to get to full throttle. It helps a lot with my hand...

    I'm even more of a Spyder fan than I was before

    Sorry to hear yours didn't go so well. A podiatrist recommended against replacement about a decade ago, as he said the ankles weren't lasting as long as knees and hips. The specialist I saw in 2022 told me that they'd made big advancements in design as well as surgical technology, and the ankle...

    I'm even more of a Spyder fan than I was before

    I shattered an ankle in a skydiving accident in 1992. It was reconstructed, and I got along well until around 2020. I had it replaced in 2022, and it's been a big improvement. How has yours been over the long term? Thanks, David

    Any time limit on changing HCM filter during oil change? Is a 10 y/o filter good for a few more years?

    I wouldn't worry about the age of that filter, as long as you're doing the recommended oil changes. Change it at the recommended mileage.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Nice work. I made new shift and brake rods to move my footboards to position 4. I made them from aluminum hex rod, left and right hand threads, and 5/16 heim joints with jam nuts. This makes fine adjustments to pedal position easy, and eliminated the slack from the original clevis pins.

    My thoughts on the new "4 Wheeled Ryker"

    Interestingly, we visited Las Vegas and Lake Havasu City, AZ last month. While in Havasu, we rented a Razor XP for a day out in the desert. They're legal and licensed for road use out there, everywhere but the interstates. It was very handy going from one trail to another, and easily kept up...

    Is there a Code Reader for the Spyder?

    BUDS uses an interface that connects to your PC via USB. This looks to be designed for use with an ELM327 adapter and an OBD2 reader.

    Is It OK to Make 500 km On the First Day With a Brand-New 2023 Can-Am RT Limited?

    Agreed. I also added the foam grip covers from SlingMods. The cushion and larger diameter helped a lot on longer rides.

    What do you do for Gas Splash on plastics?? New bike - damaged paint!

    I wrap the nozzle with a couple of the blue paper towels at the gas pumps before I start fueling. That way any splash-back gets caught by the towel, and I use them when removing the nozzle to catch any drips. It also keeps the nozzle off the edge of the aluminum flip open bezel. I agree...

    Is It OK to Make 500 km On the First Day With a Brand-New 2023 Can-Am RT Limited?

    I know many will disagree, and this is nothing like the manufacturer, whose main interest is getting it through the warranty period, recommends. I've never been a fan of an easy break-in period. My main interest is a hard-running engine that will deliver max performance. I prefer to follow the...

    Random thought for the day

    Or a wine. ;)

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    That's great. From a business standpoint, it's better to under-promise and over-deliver. It makes for much happier customers. :cool:
