• 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.

    New video

    Nice vid! Love the lights and the explanation regarding the bracket differences for the luggage. I hope you don't mind if I correct you on one point though (sorry, I'm a real stickler for details like this). The name Givi is pronounced G V, just like you would say the letters. Named after the...

    Thinking of a new 2008....

    Thanks for the replies everyone. I appreciate all the feedback. I'll be updating this as soon as I can... I'm in camp at work till Christmas, then I get 'paroled' for a couple of weeks. :D. I'm really looking forward to going back to BC to be with friends and family!!! Rub

    Thinking of a new 2008....

    Actually it was just me who called it an RS... the web site only states Spyder Roadster. They list '08's, '10's and 11's. Last spring they said they had some '08's still in crates... A quick search found 5 other Canadian dealers listing '08's as well.... I know this is apples and oranges but...

    Thinking of a new 2008....

    Yes, that is the place... They've treated me extremely well as a potential customer. Great advice about the extended warranty. Even if an '08 isn't available I'm getting very close to pulling out my wallet :thumbup: - way too many stories of road trips and rallies that are giving me 'itchy...

    Thinking of a new 2008....

    After much thread watching, and navel gazing (don't ask :dontknow:) I'm think I'm going to be talking to my local dealer between Christmas and New Year about a new 2008 RS they have in stock. Prices aren't shown on their web site, so I'm not sure what kind of discounts they are going to offer...

    How many Spyders have been sold?

    Howdy folks, Can anyone give a rough guess as to how many Spyders are on the road in North America and/or worldwide? Rub

    Ducati Trike?

    Purely an artists concept. It has nothing to do with Ducati per se.... At least this guy is being a little creative putting 3 wheels on the ground. Rub

    Do you let anyone else drive your Spyder?

    I like to call it 'poking the bear'. Eventually something is going to happen that you're just not going to like. :yikes: Rub

    BRP R35 Bags

    BMW R1200RT cases are 32 litres apiece. These are 35. They are a good size although perhaps not as convenient due to the shape. Rub

    Passing it on- Dynamic Power Steering (DPS) Update

    And where does it all stem from? I think I have a bit of an idea. I was looking at Diesel Jettas the other day, mine is 12 years old and getting tired. The amazing thing is that the price of a new one is only $2000.00 more than I paid 12 years ago. In those 12 years there has been a lot of...

    motorcycle show and brp sales rep (syracuse, ny)

    My guess is that with the legal issues involved in publicly admitting there is a problem, that all employees who are dealing with the public at large are probably instructed, perhaps even under penalty of dismissal, not to discuss/admit or suggest that there may be a problem. In my opinion this...
