• 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.

    So many complaints about the Spyders. Anyone with no problems?

    I had a 2014 RTL with 38k miles and now have a 2015 RTL with 40k miles. The only problem I had with both were the compressors. They are junk. Replaced two on the 2014 and two on the 2015. The last one on the 2015 also quit so I just use the schrader valve to add air as needed.

    Any dealer recommendations in the DFW area?

    Just talked to Freedom now RideOn. They did my sprocket recall. Now they will not do diagnostics on spyders, only maintenance like oil changes.

    Strange coolant problem - fans continuously cycling. Any suggestions?

    Has never been pressured washed and battery is new. Would not think fans would come on until temperature reaches max, not at cold start.

    No codes. Coolant change was many miles ago.

    Strange coolant problem - fans continuously cycling. Any suggestions?

    With cold start on my 2015 RTL, (37k miles) fans immediately come on as well as the check engine light. The fans continuously go off and on running just a few seconds each time. The temperature immediately goes to half but does not overheat. Coolant was changed at the 28k mile service. Any...

    Strange coolant problem - fans continuously cycling. Any suggestions?

    2015 RTL 37k miles Fans come on immediately on cold start and then go off and on continuously running a few seconds each time. Check engine light is on. Temperature quickly goes to half but does not overheat. Coolant was changed at 28k mile service. Thermostat or sensor? TIA

    Would I get an error if the Air compressor wasn't working?

    The compressors are junk. I had to replace both on my 2014 RTL and 2015 RTL, and they quit again. I just air it up before a trip and it works fine, usually about 60# with two up and loaded.

    Who Out There Has Gotten The Replacement Sprocket?

    I had 38k on my 2015 RTL but decided to get it replaced. Done at Freedom Powersports in Lewisville, TX. They had to cut the old sprocket off but BRP paid for the extra time.

    Saddle bag won't open

    2015 RTL. Having trouble opening the saddle bag even while pushing in. Is there an emergency way to open a saddle bag?

    Loading your Spyder up a steep ramp?

    I put a 2x4 in front of the front wheels. The wheels go up on the board before the front hits.
