• 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.

    Shifting sweet spot....

    :agree: I've found that shifting @ 5K tends to be best (in the 2 months that we've owned our Spyder). However, I tend to stay in 4th gear until I've hit 62 or 63 MPH and let the the engine chime a tad bit over 5K. I almost always down shift while slowing down or when the RPM goes < 3K. I...

    RT Tall Boy seat

    No idea here... but when we bought our 2012 Limited a few months ago, I thought the Limited included comfort seat with the extra 2" for tall people as projected in BRP videos and stated in the Comfort Seat accessory listing (standard on Limited RT). The seat WAS the main reason I purchased the...

    Bump Skid Installation

    Ordered the Bump Skid for my wife's 2012 RT Limited :spyder2: a few weeks ago. I didn't like the idea of drilling holes in the bike so I took it to our dealer where we purchased it a little over a month ago. They said the could install it and would be 1 to 1 1/2 hours of labor. So I gave them...

    Hi! My name is Mark and I'm a Spyder Ryder! It's been 3 days since I've ridden it and we've only had it a week. But thankfully, the wife left it with me after I dropped her off @ work.

    Warranty Options & Information?!?!

    I've read in the forums about the options to purchase the BEST warranty and BEST Plus warranty. Wife and I just purchased a 2012 White Limited (27 April) and when I asked about BEST Plus, they said it wasn't available for the Spyders. Also, I've seen prices just below $800 for the three year...
