• 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 Spyder sold with no factory warranty - is this right? What say you all?

    OK, here's the latest follow-up (albeit somewhat bizarre): After numerous calls again, this is the explanation I got from BRP Warranty. "The original Mfg warranty expired Nov. 2023". (The Spyder build date is March 2023. I purchased it new in August 2024 with 0 miles). I asked how is it...

    Very insightful. Wish Sierra Vista wasn't so far away. I'll leave it at that.

    New Spyder sold with no factory warranty - is this right? What say you all?

    Good advice old timer but that's the problem. I believe all Can Am spyder dealers in the area fall under the same big company umbrella. Maybe if I go out of state someday, I'll find another dealer to check with.

    New Spyder sold with no factory warranty - is this right? What say you all?

    Yes, when I provided the Vin I got hung up on. At least during one of the calls I didn't get hung up on until they asked me the Dealership name.

    New Spyder sold with no factory warranty - is this right? What say you all?

    That's what I find strange. The Spyder was really never used as a demo. It had zero miles and was just sitting on the showroom floor. Didn't know it had any affect on the Dealership to provide the Mfg. warranty. Yes Racoon I did read the Ops guide when I got home and immediately called BRP...

    New Spyder sold with no factory warranty - is this right? What say you all?

    Yeah, I agree I was fed a bunch of hooey. But, because of the discount (being a 2023 model) and the contentious negotiation bringing the final price to what I considered to be a very good final price I pulled the trigger. Also, I wanted a 2023 and this was the only one near me. All in all...

    New Spyder sold with no factory warranty - is this right? What say you all?

    In August 2024 I was interested in buying a new 2023 Spyder (on the showroom floor) and the dealership told me that only 8 months remained on the factory warranty because it had been a demo. During price negotiations the dealer stated that it had not been a demo (it had 0 miles) but told me...
