• 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.

    2015 RT Brake pulls left & low fluid after fluid change? Ideas?

    I am going to talk to the general manager of the shop who seems to be a good guy and has helped me in the past. I really think it was the fault of the mechanic and the fluid change was not done right. Thanks for all the help. Mike

    2015 RT Brake pulls left & low fluid after fluid change? Ideas?

    I am also thinking they got brake fluid on the caliper when they changed the fluid because it did not pull like this before. Try to prove it was their fault.

    2015 RT Brake pulls left & low fluid after fluid change? Ideas?

    Got 35,000 out of the 1st set of pads, there is only 20,000 on the set in the bike now. The pads are fine. I got a call from the dealer and they now are saying the right rotor mis bad. They want $279 for the rotor with a total bill of $769 which I questioned. The labor is $120hr, they have to...

    2015 RT Brake pulls left & low fluid after fluid change? Ideas?

    I tried that and almost lost it once. The faster you go the worse it wants to go sideways.

    2015 RT Brake pulls left & low fluid after fluid change? Ideas?

    I have a 2015 RT and am having a brake problem the dealer can't seem to find. I had my brake fluid changed and within 1,000 miles I got a "brake failure light", when I checked the rear resavoir it was low so I added some dot 4 fluid and the light was gone. My problem is when I step on the brakes...

    Getting back to Spyders

    I guys, I have 2015 RT and am amazed on little mileage you guys are getting. I ride 2 up most of the time and am getting between 38 and 42 mile to the gallon using high test. A couple of times I was down to 35 - 37 at 70 miles an hour, I also have pulled a trailer riding 2 up and was getting...

    Next Gen Spyder Drvetrain

    I have a 2015 RT Limited now but I had a Goldwing trike before and there is no comparison between the 2 bikes. The wing with shaft drive is so smooth and the Spyder with belt drive cannot compete. Belt is just tooooo long to be as smooth. You cannot compare the power between the 2 bikes, the...

    New Tires

    I have a 2015 RT and would like to know what size Quatrac 5 tire you used on the front. I know you have to careful of them fitting because of close clearance of the front fenders. I live close to you in Beverly Hills and was also up in the smokies in September a great place to ride. Thanks

    Can-Am 219400344 Carbon Black Tri Axis Adjustable Handlebar

    I have them on my 2015 RT Limited and made all the difference for me, I also have short arms. They not only come closer but also can be raised and lowered. To me well worth the price.

    Logic behind lifting entire leg to use brakes on 2016 RT-S rear brake pedal--

    The reason I went to the Spyder was to get away from the hand brake and clutch. When you have arthritis in your hands the last thing you want is hand controls. I had a gold wing trike before the Syder and find the Spyder works just fine for me. I hope they never put hand brakes on this machine...

    Trailers to haul 2015 Spyder RT

    I looked up the trailer and the rock shield for that trailer looks like it is pretty low. It doesn't look like it would give much protection.

    Trailers to haul 2015 Spyder RT

    I have a 2015 Spyder RT Limited and am looking for an open trailer to haul it on. I have looked at the Ultimate Trailers and think their price is way to high. I read in the forum that somebody used an Aluma UT10 and I could not find the thread again. I am wondering how this trailer worked out...
