• 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.

    OFFICIAL SPYDERFEST 2013 REGISTRATION April 24-28, 2013

    I'm wondering if anyone knows who makes these wheel chocks, which seem to be ideal for securing a Spyder to a trailer? I've been all over the internet and have struck out.

    2013 RT Suspension

    Happy with 2013 non adjustable shocks I know that handling/cornering is a very personal thing and everyone has their own preferences. As for me, I really like the factory shocks on my 2013 RT Limited. True, they are non adjustable, but I can't think of how I'd want to change them, even if I...

    2013 RT Handling Problems

    recommend that BRP open a case number for you I also have a 2013 RT, and had experienced severe handling issues upon delivery. My particular dealer was far behind the knowledge base curve and I had to lead them most of the way. Finally, patience at an end, I involved BRP's customer service...

    Letting it have it's head dosen't work I sincerely appreciate your experience Bob, but I've driven other Spyders and the number of complaints found in this forum are both too numerous and too dangerous to minimize by diverting attention to "pilot error" needlessly. I'm not saying that there...

    2013 RT Limited steering problem

    Flexing Black Currants LOL, you may have something there Sam! Black does absorb more heat than the run of the mill white ones. SO, if you're traveling West, in winter months, and the sun is shining on the South side of the Can Am, that side will naturally absorb more heat than the opposite...
