• 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.

    Canyon Drive Belt Lower Idler Support Recall

    I spoke to the service rep at my dealership this morning. They have received two of the three parts they need to conduct the recall service. They will call when the final part comes in and I will carefully ride over for the install. I have to admit they have been very responsive.

    Canyon Drive Belt Lower Idler Support Recall

    It sounds like BRP is getting parts to the dealers pretty quickly. I hope I have mine repaired this week

    Is the Canyon traction control/Nanny set up differently vs the RT's?

    Graderman, when I sit on my Canyon and close my eyes it feels exactly like my 2005 BMW GS. I even rescued the tail trunk from what was left of my GS (see my avatar) and it is what I am using on the Canyon. Oh, and in regards to your fingers; wind deflectors are available to work with the hand...

    We are not old; we are vintage. And, the gray and wrinkles; that's patina!

    Your Weather News @ July Edition 2025

    I'm in East Texas. The long range weather forecast for "summer" is that it feels like a dog is breathing on you; a big dog.

    Nothing is foolish if it works for you.

    Is the Canyon traction control/Nanny set up differently vs the RT's?

    Which ride mode did you have set on the Canyon? It has four fixed modes from street to off-road plus the option for a custom setting. Were the passenger foot pegs down? The right passenger peg (when down) sets the nanny in passenger mode and really cuts down on holagonism.

    The way it was explained to me is: - I always try to pee while it is still my idea.

    2023 Ryker with a Final Drive Leak - what could be venting oil? Any common leak points?

    Just a suggestion, but wipe a finger in the oil and smell it. Does it smell like gear oil (aka cat piss) or like something else. I took my 2019 Rally in for what I thought was a final drive leak and the tech identified it as a leaky water pump. The antifreeze was running all the way back and...

    At the recent BMW MOA rally in Tennessee I purchased a pair of MOA branded compression socks. What does that say about motorcycle demographics? They are really nice compression socks though.

    Canyon Drive Belt Lower Idler Support Recall

    So I took my Canyon to my dealer this morning. They had become aware of the recall about the same time we did. The service writer is ordering the replacement parts and will call me when they come in. He made sure to point out that it was a safety recall and leaving it there until the parts can...

    Canyon Drive Belt Lower Idler Support Recall

    Well, it is a new model but some teething problems are to be expected. Apparently the recall affects all Canyons sold in North America. Thanks to a sharp eyed Canyon owner in Germany for the heads up...

    Finally picked up my Canyon

    I have noticed the same forward surge on downshift; if I am still on the throttle. If I fully close the throttle before downshift, the surge is minimal.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I updated the software on my Canyon to V 4.1. I initially tried to connect to wi-fi from our old Apple home router; it did not work. The download kept stalling at about 50%. I finally gave up and connected to the modem for our internet service and everything proceeded flawlessly. I'm not...

    Clock Setting screen no longer works, any help appreciated!?

    I updated my Canyon to version 4.1 today. The lnformation amkrat provided about -7 time zone really helped.

    Is this metallic knocking in reverse normal? 2011 RT

    If it is the semi-automatic transmission it is just the clutch actuating and the gear dogs engaging. Perfectly normal.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I added a piece of 1/4" closed cell foam to the inside bottoms of my Canyon side bags. Hopefully that will prevent any hard item bouncing around inside them from dinging the aluminum. As a bonus they provide a thermal barrier from the exhaust. My groceries will stay fresher on the way home...

    Riding Gear Poll

    My standard response to anyone questioning my full gear (even during hot weather) is that "I would rather sweat than bleed". Look closely at my avatar, it is what was left of my BMW GS when the Honda Accord driver turned left in front of me. Both the GS and I flipped over the car and down the...

    Making custom Linq gear - any ideas &/or specs, diagrams, etc to help?

    When I purchased my Canyon I wanted to use the trunk from my BMW GS. I purchased the Ski-Doo LinQ Universal Rack for REV Gen4 860202208 from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09J9796VP?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title. It has two latches that connect to the LinQ fittings on my Canyon. I just...
