• 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.

    1330 oil change interval

    After the initial oil change, the change is every 9300 miles. Would the first change then be at 12,300 or 9,300 regardless? TIA Willie

    For those that are inclined - Grand Tours

    Since 2010 I have participated in GLMC Annual Grand Tours. I found it is a great way to explore places that you probably would not have gone to. Essentially it is a themed scavenger hunt. https://www.glmc.org/grand_tour.php Questions ask away. Willie

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

    I have a 2015 RT with 91,000+ on it. Had a water pump replaced, rear suspension air motor or bag replaced, and a relay in the fuel system replaced. The rest was normal maintenance such as oil changes, filters, and tires. Overall been good to me. Have a 2023 RTL acquired in July with 7,000+...

    What iPhone phone app do you use to plan & track your trips?

    For those that use Garmin products for GPS you can upload tracks from your GPS to BaseCamp. Export the specific Track file from Basecamp which will create a ".GPX" file. This info will tell you where you have been by GPS Coordinates. I use a Zumo XT and a Nuvi 1490 (this use to be my main one)...

    Must I Wait for the safety message to appear before hitting mode and starting?

    One exception. When you turn off the bike to fill it up, you can restart your bike by simply pressing the brake pedal and hit the starter button, it will start. At least this was true on my 2015 RT-L. It must be done within a certain amount of time, which I do not know how long that is. Willie

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

    Refusal to look at my 2015 RT-S by a Can Am Dealer!

    Yes, I bought a new 2023 RT Limited from iMotorsport, where I got my 2015 from. The 2015 had 91000+ miles on it. The type of rides I do are generally multi-day rides with 1000+ miles involved. I participate in nationwide scavenger hunts. With that said, I don't want to end up stranded again, and...
