• 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.

Back in January '07 when there was a review of Spyder in the AMA mag, BRP admitted they didn't know who their target...

    What is this machine called "Spyder"

    There seems to be a lot of confusion out there as to exactly what a "Spyder" is. Some compare it to a revised snowmobile. Others to some sort of an ATV. Many just lump it into a general name like "Roadster" or "Adventure Machne." All of that is wrong. I'm thinking of what must have been said in...

    When did you order your Spyder?

    Ordered mine in August '07. Was # 48 on dealers list, but since I ordered yellow, I was # 6 for that color. But there's more .. One primary reason for me moving to a Spyder from my Harley was that I had my left leg amputated above knee in June '07. If I was gonna keep riding - and there was no...
