• 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.

    Never mind... figure it out... a few hits with my all purpose trusty hammer and a punch worked them out :D.

    RSS - passenger footpegs

    How do you remove the pins from the passenger's foot pegs? I remove the C-clip under the pin... tried to push it up... it ain't budging. Is something else holding it? When I rotate the peg, the pin rotates with it.

    By left over you mean opened or unopened containers? I hope unopened. Glad to hear your brakes are normal again though! :).

    Want a Top Case behind passenger seat - any ideas?

    As far as I know, for Ryker, the only way to get a top case is by customizing your ride... Search on the Ryker forums, a lot of people already came up with a few cool stuff.

    brake failure light again 6 months later 2008 SM5

    It could be air in the braking line... if you ride "hard" and you are constantly on the brakes and you also are in a very hot area, then getting the brake fluid to boil is quite easy. Maybe upgrade the brake fluid to a higher grade? Something like a MOTUL RBF 600 (I personally used this on most...

    BRP Knee pads... part number?

    Thank you! Now I can find more search results. I will be getting in touch with my local dealer... online after a quick research most of them seems to be out of stock :|.

    Cracked Wheel Nuts

    For such an important piece... at such high torque settings, maybe aluminum is not the best option... considering is the only nut that holds the wheel? (I honestly thought from the beginning that those things are not aluminum)

    BRP Knee pads... part number?

    Thank you! If I don't find the BRP ones, I might go that route as well. My hope is that the OEM pads are non stick... since I see they mount via the mounting bolts of the panels. I am planning to wrap the Spyder so anything that is not sticky, is a bonus :).

    BRP Knee pads... part number?

    Onto my next thing that I would like to get for my Spyder... knee pads. In the ads from BRP, I noticed that some models have these installed... I tried to find them so I can get a part number, but I am at a loss, cannot find them. Anyone knows the part number for them? Thanks!

    2020 Ryker Accessories

    Some of the options look pretty good, but its all that... looks. Functionality feels like it was a second thought. The cluster placement looks pretty cool... but I think it would of made more sense if they would of had a completely new cluster with buttons relocated on the handlerbars. The new...

    Spyder RSS - rear top case and bracket

    It does, but with a quirk. Under the mounting plate, there is a lever that you pull and allows for the plate to tilt 45 degrees. And then the top case fully opens. I thought it might be annoying, but after using it a couple of times today (went for a 9 hour ride), I did not find it annoying at...

    Spyder RSS - rear top case and bracket

    Got, installed it and love it. Looks better than I was expecting - kind of completes the look of the trike. Thanks all! :)
