• 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.

    Tire recommendations Spyder RT Ltd 2014 REAR - S Drive vs. Toyo Proxies?

    Thanks everyone for the valued advice...updates! 1. Decided to go with the Toyo Proxes 4, P225 50R 15 for the rear. Paid $143 Cdn plus tax. Seems reasonable. 2. I have arranged to take the bike in to the dealer to have it installed and they are OK putting on a vehicle tire. About $100...

    BRP belt tensioner

    I live in Ottawa too. Last year I did a 30,000km trip around North America and this year a 10,000km trip. After 2 riding seasons I have about 45,000km on my bike...would have loved to be one of the guinea pigs for the tensioner too as the vibration is quite an irritant. I wonder if your dealer...

    Tire recommendations Spyder RT Ltd 2014 REAR - S Drive vs. Toyo Proxies?

    I know we have beaten the tire issue to death and I had concluded that I would go for the Yokohama S Drive, 205 55R 15 as they do not make the same size as the Kenda's 225 50R 15. When I went into my tire supplier he questioned if it was wise to put a tire such as the S Drive on the rear as it...

    Headlight out on my 2014 RT ...How hard is it to DIY change?

    I just had the same problem on my 2014 RT Ltd. They replaced the bulb under warranty as they said I have a full warranty until April of 2017 and bulbs are covered.

    Spyders riding in groups with motorcycles?

    This is likely a bit of a crazy question so please chip in if anyone has recommendations; 1. Last year I rode a great deal with Members of my club on large group rides. None had Spyders. 2. This year I have replaced my motorcycle with a 2014 RT Ltd but I cannot ride it until April due to the...

    Audio Question

    I just purchased a new 2014 RT Ltd and noticed the audio hook up connection in the trunk for an MP3. My 2012 GoldWing used a USB which was quite convenient and the operation was seamless when I wished to play tunes. This is likely a fairly dumb question, but is there a connector that I can...

    Thanks....I will give it a try and if I don't like it the dealer said he would gladly (or maybe not gladly per se ;)) take it back.

    Got any long trips planned for the Spyder?

    I am still waiting to buy my Spyder RT Ltd. and sell my 2012 GoldWing although this time of year in Canada with the snow, it is not a great time to sell a bike but indeed a good time to buy one. Guess I will just have to be patient. My bucket list trip this summer is planned to go from Ontario...
