• 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.

    998cc bent frame

    Check copart.com I've seen a number of Spyders there. A previous flood bike would be ideal for your purposes.

    BRP Spyder & Polaris SlingShot / Side by Side - Mike Mas

    Ride difference I've owned 5 Spyders so far, and just purchased a SS this weekend. I had no idea what to expect when I first drove off in the new purchase. I suppose I thought it would be a little more "Spyder-like" since it had the two front wheels. Nope. Very much car-like in the sense...

    Riding it is not an option

    Uship I used Uship to find transport for both of my spyders. Just had an ATV shipped this week using them too. I've used them a bunch over the years and never had a single problem. They have a rating system like Ebay, where you can look at user reviews before you accept a transporter's bid...

    still not happy!

    RS v RT I owned a 2012 RS SM5 that I did all the "touring/handling" mods on. I was very happy with it overall....... until I bought a 2011 RT last month. I never wanted the RT because I thought it looked stodgy. It is light years ahead of the RS in terms of rider and passenger comfort. For...

    Passenger.

    Wife and I have taken weekend trips on our RS and the Givi bags plus frunk worked great. Backrest for passenger is really good, but there isn't enough room to comfortably have a driver's rest too (at least that's what my wife felt when we tried one on our RS). I installed the peg extensions...

    Dealers

    Freedom Powersports I had them do my inspection when I first purchased my '12 RS (bought online and shipped to TX). While they inspected it, I visited with the parts guys. They didn't know much at all about the Spyder line. I was asking simple things, like antifreeze types, oil types, etc...

    Need Opinion On 3 Different Buying Options

    2012 RS I was torn between the RT and RS when I made my purchase this year. I love the looks of the RS, but the ride position of the RT. I decided to go with the 2012 RS and have been completely satisfied. I added the Helios riser, which gives me the upright riding position, I also added a...

    Mode button not needed

    It is supposed to happen that way I guess BRP gives us credit for remembering all of the safety instructions for at least a little while.

    2 wheel GL1800 Goldwing vs Spyder fun factor question?

    Spyder Rental Just one comment about the idea of renting one first. I think it took me about 200 miles before I felt comfortable with my RS (coming from big H-D two wheelers). The first few rides had me feeling the thing was big, sluggish and ungainly. After I learned how to ride it, I...

    Anyone with the Smooth Spyder backrest?

    There are several dealers who sell on Ebay at discounted prices. I paid a little over $400 for my sport rack and back rest, both brand new. I bought each piece from a different store, choosing the one with the best price. Rack was $179 and the rest was $239

    Electric Bike

    It certainly is ..... red! I'm interested in EVs, but man, that one's styling is something else. Like a regular sport bike with too many PSI everywhere!
