• 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.

    Installed new LED headlights, now Fog lights not working - ideas?

    Try switching the plug. When I installed mine they plugged in backwards. Flipped them and they worked. Just an Idea.

    Best alignment to be found! Union SC.

    PMK and Others, I am not a frontend alignment expert, so I'll not try to explain what it is that Sean has done to make my RT ride so-so much better. Let me say that it glides over bumps with no twitching (my way of describing bump steer). Its a delight to run through the twisties and now my two...

    Best alignment to be found! Union SC.

    Let me just say that Sean is a master at what he does. I am glad that he is now able to bring his innovative way of doing this alignment to the Spyder group. He has worked hard and has helped several while developing this system. I for one was about to give up on my Spyder after getting a laser...

    Anyone had problems with their Left Headlight Assy? Ideas?

    Fixed it. After removing headlight assy again I saw that the aftermarket LED had a + - on its plug and a locking tang on both sides, flipped it, plugged it in then plugged the assy back in and it came on. Live and learn. The lights I am installing are the T2 Series conversion from Slingmods just...

    Venting about Tire wear and alignment...

    Yeah I am going to let this post rest. I have said about all I need to say. I know I had good tires on the bike with no wear problem at the time of my trip and it was a screw up by the guy that left the nuts backed off loose. I am just glad I made it back home and nothing worse happened. We all...

    Venting about Tire wear and alignment...

    Ok so what I am hearing from you Peter is that spite the fact I have ridden the bike a few thousand miles prior to getting the alignment and had no wear problems, the nuts left backed off and lose had nothing to do with this. EdMat I know and understand what your saying. Thats one reason the...

    Venting about Tire wear and alignment...

    Debated on posting or not posting this. I am a casual member of this forum, so I don't post anything unless I have something to contribute. By the time I read most posts they have been answered by people that have more knowledge about these bikes than I do. Anyway, I got my bike laser aligned by...

    Anyone else had problems updating CanAm/Garmin GPS Units?

    I have a Garmin GPS for every vehicle I own, including an XT for my Harley. I use the Garmin Express program for all updates on them and have had no problems before. I bought this 2017 RT Limited used and it came with the Garmin Zumo 590LM installed and I assume it came as a package since BRP...

    Where can I get Rear rotor bolts?

    2017 RTL. I need a rear rotor bolt or a set, but one will do. Anyone have any for sell? Saw a set on ebay for a 2012, I assume they are all the same. Meanwhile I'll go ahead and replace the tire. Any help in locating will be apricated. Doug

    Why you should flush your brake fluid properly

    So those of us without BUDS can expect to pay how much for this service? And since you have BUDS and are close?

    Anyone had their RTL Detailed?

    One of the reasons I am riding a Spyder now is arthritis. No clutch and no hand brake. Believe me, if I thought I could do it myself, I would not have asked. Thanks anyway.

    Anyone had their RTL Detailed?

    I know prices can be different for different areas of the country but just trying to get an idea. Has anyone had their RTL detailed? I bought a 2017 and the paint looks real good but has a rough feel to it. I would call it prickly I guess. I suspect it may need a good clay barring. I washed it...
