• 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.

    First ride of the season

    My bride and I have taken two rides around the block for about 250 miles total! I am loving the new rear shock, and the extra brake pedal and response I am getting from a good brake flush this year! Now some new tires on the front and hit the road!!

    2022 F3S with Codes C0031, C00C6, and Limp Mode - what could be wrong?

    The wheel sensors will collect crap on them, it's a good thing to clean them from time to time! Make sure you don't lose any spacers when you remove them! (y) Good catch Pete

    You put a FULL charge in your battery before install, right?

    Brake failure message and no fluid from ABS and the rear caliper, any ideas?

    When you did the rear and ABS, in which order did you do them, and how are you doing it - speed bleeders, vac pump, or pump and hold? Is there fluid in both cups, to the top?

    Is anyone using one of these Lifts to work on their Ryker?

    I don't have a Ryker, but there are people out there putting their RT's on them. Myself, I use car ramps and floor jacks. You just have to make sure you have it in the right place on the frame, and pay close attention to the weight transfer when taking tires off . 🫣 Ask me how I know that now...

    2022 F3S with Codes C0031, C00C6, and Limp Mode - what could be wrong?

    You may have to go over your wiring that you have done again, check for polarity, and good tight connections, you have pissed off the can bus gods by the sounds of it! Good luck, there is nothing worse than a electrical gremlin!

    Little power in third gear and on top - any ideas?

    Try putting some Seafoam in it before you fill it up! Run a couple tanks threw it, at highway speeds!! When have you changed the fuel filter? That may help also, and never short shift it, wind that thing up a little!

    Another Dealer Drops the Spyder Line

    You are a minority Tony, thank your lucky stars you have them!! I, myself, haven't found but two places I would feel good about taking my bike to; at one, the mechanic retired a month after he did an alignment for me; the other shop is in Tenn, and I am in Maine!! 🙄 Ron, will you pick up and...

    My solution to 2021 ACS Compressor issues - a re-engineered custom anti-vibration bracket mounted in the RH Saddlebag!

    I find that the compressor is just extra baggage that isn't really needed. It works for the fine as a manual fill for the nonlimited bikes. But that's just me, not to mention it only cost me $5 to do!

    Hey BRP, can you make this fit?

    You realize you just woke up a thread that started & last did anything in 2009?

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Oil change, new Elka2 Rear shock, brake system flush, and checked pads!!

    Installing PedalBox has increased idle speed to 1000-1050 - will this damage anything? Anyone else notice this?

    I would say, that's your answer!! 🙄 Make the call

    My solution to 2021 ACS Compressor issues - a re-engineered custom anti-vibration bracket mounted in the RH Saddlebag!

    The open compressor is not the only fly in the ointment! The dump valve is another key problem - it will get gummed up and stick open just enough to cause a slight leak and make the compressor work overtime! The non-limited bikes have the manual fill setup, with the same shock as you're running...

    22 Spyder RT Brake issues - EBC Rotor larger than OEM & abnormal/uneven pad wear. Does any of this make sense?

    Thats what I was trying to say, I don't think the old rotors are right! If you put the EBC rotor on your bike the brake caliper should slide down over and give you FULL coverage on the pad to rotor! Your old set up obviously didn't! Thats the only way you could get that kind of wear.

    22 Spyder RT Brake issues - EBC Rotor larger than OEM & abnormal/uneven pad wear. Does any of this make sense?

    Something is really looking odd in those pictures,, your pads look like there only making contact with half of your rotor. It's like the caliper isn't far enough over your rotor, or the rotors are too small. So, in your case yes, your new rotors should be larger than your old ones. I think the...
