• 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.

    Would you pay full price on a '25 F3S this late in the year?

    The CAN-AM white is Vegas White Satin and the blue is Mineral Blue Satin, so neither is designed to be "shiny".

    Battery/Starting slow spin - is this common & why doesn't it start like a normal motorcycle?

    I did something stupid with my Spyder shortly after buying it, left the key in the "on" position, and killed the original battery. I purchased a replacement from the local Batteries Plus store. The email receipt doesn't list the brand, but the specs listed are 21AH and 350CCA AGM. Looking at...

    Can I get GPS on my 2024 S2S 10.25" screen; or GPS Software/Hardware, Apples to Oranges, or maybe not...

    A built-in, like some sort of plug in upgrade is unlikely, regardless of what might be available for other BRP/CAN-AM products. As for GPS, either a Carpuride system, or a Garmin Zumo XT or XT2 motorcycle GPS can be mounted to your handlebars. I purchased a Garmin Zumo XT to use with my 2024...

    I have experienced Key Lime Pie in Key West, Florida. And several other places, too, but having a slice in it's "home town" has to count for something. :LOL:

    Apple CarPlay update - what is the secret to getting it working properly??

    I wish I could help with the music issue, but I don't use the Spyder's radio or listen to music from my iPhone while riding. I'm still at the stage of trying not to get run over by all of the idiots in Tennessee who drive large pickup trucks. As for the Apple CarPlay navigation, it still...

    Waiting to see what the 2026 changes are makes sense. But then you have to worry about whether the dealer will sell out of the model you want.

    Anyone purchased from an out of town dealer? Is this common? Any concerns?

    So I checked the Acrobat PDF copy I have of my 2024 Spyder's Operator's Guide. ================== Pages 57-58: OPERATION DURING BREAK-IN A break-in period of 1 000 km (600 mi) is required for the vehicle.
