• 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.

    Did oil change & checked level properly; NO oil showing on dip stick - any ideas?

    My method which is just my choice, remove filter, let the oil drain for 30 mins or so, replace filter, install drain plugs remember to replace crush washers. Refill with the exact amount shown in the book with a scant pint more and go. If there is no oil leaks, that's it. What can possibly be...

    Can-Am dealers not hungry?

    Dealers hungry? Definitely not! Not sure why, owners super rich? Maybe they are making enough $ on service and repair??

    I am now Spyderless

    I wish you well Pete, since you kept some gear, you might be back. There comes a dreaded time for all of us. As some know here, at 92 years, I think about it.

    Did oil change & checked level properly; NO oil showing on dip stick - any ideas?

    Mariner, I just kept reading until I found yours. That is exactly what I do, hot/warm drain, then dump 5 quarts back in, button up, and ride. We all pretty much agree that stick is difficult to read at best. If you really must check the dip, then after a nice leisurely ride, shut it down, let it...

    5 MOTORCYCLES THAT ARE NOTORIOUSLY EXPENSIVE TO MAINTAIN

    I follow Ron's common sense comment's carefully knowing that he's seen it all with BRP. At the ripe old age of '71', experience goes a long way, I compete with him looking at 92 come February. Jus sayin, not riding my 20 RTL as much as I used to, but the Mrs and I still enjoy the short trip...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I can sure relate to that; I'm buying some pig mats - getting it off non coated concrete is nearly impossible.

    How often should I apply grease to the drive belt?

    Thought that was a "no, no". Maybe I learned something today, but not doing that just yet.

    Anyone considered towing a Cargo Trailer with their Ryker?

    Interesting, I've considered a Miata, but there is absolutely no storage in that thing. Small trailer might be the answer.

    Review: Spyder Extras Flip Up Seat Support Bracket

    I really like the 'new improved' support because it raises the seat higher for fueling access. Since I have the Show Chrome seat strut, not buying another one. BRP should have addressed this problem long ago as some riders have already mentioned. Cheers and have a good day.
