• 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.

    New 2013 (to us) ST-S and a couple questions.

    Hi Pete, I used these, then made custom mounts. The mounts that come with them work, but are universal mounts. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Detachable-Hard-Saddlebags-4-Can-Am-Spyder-ROADSTER-RS-ST-w-mounting-brackets/231854436544?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649

    New Mods for my wife's 2013 ST-S.

    They are holding up great and look good. She rides to work several times a week, and uses them daily.

    Bikes and Breakfast, Clifton, VA 9/10/17

    Thanks! I always enjoy these. They happen about once a month there. Usually a great selection of bikes. By the way, even kids know not to touch or sit on someone's bike where I come from.;)

    Bikes and Breakfast, Clifton, VA 9/10/17

    Great turn-out. I saw Kermit, John, Bruce, Rocketman and several others, and lots of great bikes. Perfect weather for it too!

    Indians new reverse trike!

    Fugly! The proportions are all wrong. Tiny panniers, huge nose with a giant cowl, fender skirts that are accompanied by modern chrome wheels. I like steam punk just fine, but this is like a parody of steam punk, with a little Donk thrown in.

    SUPER FLUFFY EGGS ...... A HOW - TO

    That is pretty much how all chefs do it. No need to whip it too much. That said, if you want the most fluffy eggs, put one in a coffee cup, minus the shell, and whip it with a fork for 20 seconds, then pop it in the microwave. It will expand to the top of a standard 8 oz coffee cup.

    Anyone used a Harb. Freight trailer to haul the Spyder?

    I got mine from AutoZone.

    They are strong enough, but not wide enough, unless you modify them.

    Idiots in Cages

    My car: I still prefer to ride every day. I have had this car 2 years, it has 3K miles from me.

    Any F3 owners with Shad Bags added Taillights? Need details?

    Very easy to do. I used waterproof QDs on my wife's. Works great!

    Heated gear electrical outlets

    I ran my gear wires to the charging posts. Effectively this is the battery, and easy access. You need to put a fuse on the line as well.

    Unfortunately they are very likely written byt the engineers. Always the worst people to write instructions, especially for non-engineers.

    I hate to ask but is this a good deal? 2013 Can-Am® Spyder® ST Limited SE5

    No idea if it is good. But I picked up one in November for my wife, a 2013 SR-S SE5 with 1400 miles on it for $9K. It came with the backrest, Givi top case and comfort seat, along with the stock seat.

    Powder Coating Soyder Wheels

    ​Sorry, I wasn't pointing you out, just saying that it is a simple fix. One that the PC place should have known about.
