• 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.

    Audiosystem for the RS Modells

    Again, nice work but I would hate to lose that much space in my side case(s). Has anyone else added a sound system to their RS or GS and could detail?

    RT Model for Camping - Storage and weight questions

    Thank you all for the great info. Really appreciate it. I should have been more clear that it is both my wife and I on the Spyder. We are going to go check out an RT this weekend or next. We camp pretty light but as we get older, comfort that we lack in a tent becomes a bit more important...

    RT Model for Camping - Storage and weight questions

    We currently have a 2011 RS with the BRP saddle cases and a homemade rack that can actually carry something. I am considering an RT but had a couple questions that I had not seen or at least couldn't find answered. BRP lists the storage on an RT at 155L vs. my RS with side cases at 112L. Are...

    To all the other old 2 wheel riders;

    At 52, been on two wheels for 40 years, mostly dirt over the years. I ride dual sport (DR650) now with friends but after my wife mentioned that she would consider riding on the back of a Spyder, that was all it took. She was not interested in riding on two wheels but feels comfortable on the...

    why not a dual-sport on & off road Spyder ??

    I ride mostly off road on my dual sport but bought the Spyder to enjoy rides with my wife. I have been off road twice with the Spyder (not intentionally) and it was the worst experience ever. Once was on a paved road where beach sand had covered the road and it just kept getting deeper until...

    Overwhelmed........

    You would never know Louis Powersports have the inventory or great prices. Their website has issues. Click on preowned and it shows you the generic page for new. They would benefit by getting the site working better and listing what they have.

    Here's the ST!

    Not the best of the RS and RT I was ready to replace my 2011 RS SM5 with a new sport tourer model asap. I am sorry, but to me they have taken the worst of the RT and the RS and combined them into the ST. This is just my opinion! My wife and I went and sat on a 2012 RT this past week for the...

    Phantom 540 - Accident - Roll over

    The information and detail that you have provided about your accident is incredibly valuable. Thank you so much for sharing. I feel that it will help many riders with safe riding gear as well as how we all carry and strap stuff on. Very thankful you are doing OK. Thanks again!

    2011 Changes

    Interesting. That is weird that both my local dealer and the seller on this site both sent me crush washers that are all four the exact same.

    2011 Changes

    Just a note to say I am finding a few things different with the 2011. First was ordering the Nelson Rigg tank bag. In order to work with my 2011, there is a kit that needs to be ordered or custom make some new front straps. No biggie, but nothing I found tells you this. Then on changing the...

    Nelson-Rigg CAS-455 Tank Bag Review + Pics

    CAS-455 Nelson Rigg Tank Bag Issue On our 2011 RS-SM5, I tried installing my new Nelson Rigg Spyder specific tank bag. I do not see any of the brackets under the steering tree that others have mentioned. I am wondering if something changed with the 2011 model. I worked and worked on trying...

    Help battery problem

    Battery issue I assume you checked the terminals for tightness. Have you added anything that might be draining even with the key off? Call me if you need me to help with anything. Those battery plus stores might be a good place to check for a battery short of a Spyder dealer. Thanks, Jon

    BRP Sport Rack

    Rack Bolts ? Purchased a new 2011 RS and bought the rack and backrest. Upon installing the rack, I found that they did not include the four allen bolts for bolting into the extrusion. Can you tell me if there should have been any other bolts or nuts included with the rack then just these four...
