• 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.

    Calling all Scorpio SR-i900 owners... placement help

    I have the SR-900i installed on my Spyder. There are no issues with it being placed upside down. I have the rear rack installed so found the best place to put the MCM was in the cavity above the battery. To get the best reception for the remote I ran the antenna up through the rear rack and...

    New Grips

    I take it it never gets cold in your state, or you don't ride in the Winter?

    2009 SE5 Owners still having shifting problems?

    This is likely the B.U.D.S. software that the dealer uses to connect to your Spyder terminal for maintenance and diagnostics. It doesn't fix problems though!

    Ran into kirk on yellow spyder from Chicago

    Fuel expansion? Hmmm. If you notice, the tank filler cap is slightly to the side of the tank centre. It's designed like this so even if you fill up so much that fuel is spilling out of the two upper air vents you won't have actually topped off the tank. Stop worrying.

    Etymotics Ear Buds

    Just in case you hadn't already realised the ER-20 is just an earplug, not an earphone. You can't listen to music with the ER-20's.

    Etymotics Ear Buds

    Well, I sort of agree that very low volume music would be fine but my ER-6i's are so good at canceling out background noise that it is very hard to hear anything other than the music. At least with my ER-20's I can hear everything as I would do normally, just at 20db less. I can even hear people...

    My other girls

    That's right. It was a sad day, I remember it on the national news. However, there were millions of £'s donated from all over the country to get it back to the way it was.

    Etymotics Ear Buds

    I use both the Etymotic ER-20's and the ER-6i's. However, the ER-20's are the only thing I'd use on a motorbike or the Spyder because I prefer to listen out for engine noise, other vehicles and emergency sirens. Listening to music while riding is just plain stupid but that's only my personal...

    My other girls

    If you guys ever make it to England try and fly in to Birmingham International (not Alabama of course!!) and visit the national motorcycle museum. You'll crap yourself at the bikes in there! http://www.nationalmotorcyclemuseum.co.uk/museum/exhibits.php

    I already seem to own one of these. The spec is pretty much what I have now, except mine is an SE5.

    Gas Octane

    With all said it's not possible to buy 87RON in the UK. Minimum is 95 but 98 is the norm and both 99 and 102 are available at pump at a slight premium and are sold as high performance cleaner burning fuels for sports cars and privateer racers. Like I said before higher RON might not give you...

    1GB memory stick from BRP

    Got this in the post from BRP today. It includes a letter from BRP UK welcoming me to the Spyder community, plus a 1GB USB memory stick that includes videos and high resolution studio and location images of the Spyder. Anyone else get this or is it just a UK/Europe thing?

    Thanks. Is the polarity as I suggested in the image above?

    Need wiring help with NMN signal lights

    Cheers MM but I have just received this kit in the UK so changing to the other puck would take a few weeks to sort I reckon. A bit if snipping and extended wiring should be OK shouldn't it?

    Need wiring help with NMN signal lights

    Got the NMN signal LED's and the Kewlmetal bezel lights but because the LED puck wires are too short to go all the way through the light stud I need to know how to wire them in using the stock wiring. In the first shot you can see the puck wiring is too short for the attaching stud shown below...

    Gas Octane

    I run nothing but Shell V-Power at 99 RON octane here in the UK. This is a highly filtered fuel designed with the Ferrari F1 team and is available at pump. It's about 10% more expensive than regular. Contrary to some of the BS written in this thread a higher octane helps keep engine temps down...

    Can-Am Spyder Review and Interview at 2009 International MC Show in New York

    The BRP guy needs to be careful with his comment about not be able to topple the Spyder. It can be done, by an idiot of course.
