• 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.

    Spyder transport suggestions

    Hi all, With our relocation from New Jersey to Texas, I'm going to need to ship my Spyder and 2 motorcycles. Can't ride the Spyder as I need to drive my car (with 2 cats). Just wondering if any of you have shipping companies you can recommend from personal experience. Thanks in advance.

    I'm going to need to change my profile name

    My wife is getting transferred to Texas, so I'm going to have to change my name to Txspeedmaster. Moving to the Temple area and I have a question for the group. The closest dealer is in Killeen, Killeen Power Sports. Anyone have any experience with them? Thanks in advance.

    Changing Handlebars

    Hi all, I have a 2009 GS with the 1" riser block. I was wondering if anyone has changed to different handlebars as the angle of the bars is uncomfortable on long rides. I know the cover would not work with aftermarket bars, but would this even be feasible? Thanks.

    Question for the group

    Had nothing to do with the Spyder, it's arthritic stenosis. Affects my walking, had no issues or pain while riding. :thumbup: Have tried PT, muscle relaxers, epidurals, and have been on pain meds. Need to try something else. Thanks for the good wishes.

    Question for the group

    Having been fighting back pain for the last several months I've decided to have surgery as recommended by my doctor. Having a 3 level spinal laminectomy. Just wondering if anyone has had similar issues and how long it was before they could ride again? Thanks.

    Tool to remove Can Am Givi bags

    Hi all, I bought my :spyder2: used, and it did not come with any tools. I have a good supply of most of the tools, but it looks like there is a triangle shaped tool to remove the saddlebag brackets. I see a tool on the Givi USA website, but I can't tell if it is what I need. Would the tool be...

    Question relating to heat on the LH side

    Thanks Andy, I'll keep you in mind. I went to one bike night in 2012 when I was between employment. My current hours won't let me attend, but hopefully that may change. If nothing else we can ride on the weekend sometime.

    Question relating to heat on the LH side

    Had the longest ride yet on my 2009 GS Spyder that I bought in November (this winter sucked!), rode for 120 miles. Temp was in the high 70's/low 80's. Had a great time, but my left leg got quite warm. Just wondering if there are any tips to mitigate this? Had no issue on the RH side with my foot.

    Harriman today

    I was out yesterday, rode out to Cyclemotion in Middletown to pick up the latest copy of Backroads magazine. Made a nice 70 mile loop. Everytime I ride the :spyder2: I'm getting more comfortable. I find if I don't think about riding, I'm smoother and more confident. Temp was in the mid-40's and...

    First ride of 2015

    Finally was able to get my :spyder2: out for the first ride of the year. 34°F, so only went about 20 miles around Greenwood Lake. Felt nice to finally get out. :D
