• 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.

    Found a coolant puddle under my Spyder...

    Hi all, Took the Spyders out for a short ride today; when we got home, I opened the garage, and saw a coolant puddle on the floor, where my Spyder was parked. I looked underneath mine, and can see the end of a small hose. It was wet around it's edge and was venting (the bike was still hot at...

    BEST Warranty Documentation - what do I get?

    Hi all, After my wife's Spyder showed a DPS Fault/Limp error with just 22 miles on the odometer back on 10/11, we decided to buy the BEST warranty. I called my dealer and bought the 3yr plan for each bike. I sent a check along with the driver who picked up my wife's bike to bring it back to the...

    Spyder is back, healthy

    Tom, Barry, My wife and I were both pretty Zen about it when it happened. Of course it was disappointing, but we didn't want to get worked up about anything unless and until we had a reason to. I had no cause to believe that my dealer wouldn't take care of me - I just made the call, told them...

    Spyder is back, healthy

    I'm with you about letting people ride my machines, but in this case, I not only sanctioned it, I requested it. The last thing I wanted was for them to put a mile on the bike, say all is well, and then I get another error after putting 15 or 20 miles on it. Keith

    Spyder is back, healthy

    Just wanted to update everyone on the issue with my wife's Spyder, after it threw a DPS fault and went into Limp mode with 22 miles on odometer last Sunday. Jim from Rte. 3A Motors called Monday morning and told me a truck was on its way to pick up the bike. Truck showed up around 1:30, took...

    I laughed, I cried. I picked up my Spyders today...

    I just got off the phone with Jim, my sales guy. He is waiting for another service guy to show up so they can send a truck up to get the sick Spyder. I told him what I had learned here on the forum, that it may just need the update re-run, and thought if the update is run from a laptop, perhaps...

    I laughed, I cried. I picked up my Spyders today...

    Thanks to everyone for your replies. I hope you are all right, and my dealer will resolve it quickly. My biggest concern is timing; I live 52 miles away from the dealer. They need to come up here with a trailer or flatbed to get the Spyder, and then I'll want them to truck it back. I haven't...

    I laughed, I cried. I picked up my Spyders today...

    Picked up my Spyders from the dealer today. I got a Full Moon '09 SE5, my wife got a Millennium Yellow '09 SE5. The drive home from the dealer was approx. 52 miles. At around the halfway point, my wife starts beeping her horn; I look in the rearview, and she's waving at me to pull over. We pull...

    Newb question: What do I get with my Spyder?

    Docdoru, Thanks, but I'm buying the Spyders in MA (my home is in NH); I'm going to trailer them to FL in a couple months. Looking forward to doing some cold weather rides before heading south. Keith

    Newb question: What do I get with my Spyder?

    I'm going to pick up my Spyders today. What should come with the Spyder? By that I mean, how many keys? Is there a printed Owner's Manual? Any other documentation I should expect? I just want to make sure all pieces are intact before I leave the dealership. Thanks! Keith

    Where can I find the ST-1 Hybrid Helmet?

    Does anyone know if any dealer has the Can-Am ST-1 Hybrid Helmet in stock yet? I've asked 3 dealers - the one who sold me my 2 '09 SE5s, which I pick up tomorrow (but that's another post :2excited:), who said they don't even have pricing info on it yet, so don't expect it until Spring...even...

    Seeking pricing info about B.E.S.T.

    Bill, Thanks for that info. But I called DaSilva and told them what I wanted; they said they would look into getting me the two SE5s I wanted and call me back. They didn't call. Not sure if they didn't find two '09s, or didn't want the business, but I haven't heard from them... :dontknow:

    Seeking pricing info about B.E.S.T.

    Hi everyone, I'm about to pull the trigger on a pair of '09 SE5s, and I wanted to find out about B.E.S.T. or B.E.S.T Plus coverage. I've been told that the price is negotiable, and that the price varies from dealer to dealer. However, I have no idea what the ballpark is for the different forms...

    Freedom Cycle, NH BRP Factory Demo Tour

    Hi Marilyn, My wife and I tried the SM5 at HK in Hooksett, and then we each took a turn on the SM5 and SE5 (RS actually, if I can believe the decals on the bikes), yesterday at Freedom Cycle. I liked both, but I was really impressed with the SE. Very smooth, and I enjoyed just keeping my left...

    Freedom Cycle, NH BRP Factory Demo Tour

    I went to Freedom Cycle yesterday; no RT. I did finally get to demo an SE5, and I was really impressed. Now, in spite of what I've been telling myself for the past few months, I want the SE instead of the SM. I was kinda peeved that there was no RT. The people from BRP were friendly and...

    SM5/SE5 compared to RS?

    Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone knew what is different in the RS model over the SM5/SE5. I figure, if there is very little difference except for the name, an '09 could be had for a deep discount. However, if there are changes to the RS that make it a better bike, I wouldn't mind spending...
