• 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.

    Speakers are not working - what am I missing?

    Try the Ride Settings button. It may have the audio output selection there as noted in the manual. My '22 is set up differently, and at times I have to make sure the source (audio output) is correct.

    What can I do to get a straight shot at the Rear Tire valve Stem?

    I was thinking about my post last night and realized that you can't simply flip the tire so the valve is on the right. I was thinking how rotating tires on a car flips the valve from right to left and the light bulb went off. Can't do it on a rear motorcycle tire. Mea Culpa!

    What can I do to get a straight shot at the Rear Tire valve Stem?

    I don't agree that the valve stem was engineered on the wrong side. I believe that all rims have the valve stem in the same position. For the valve stem to be on the right (muffler) side, remove the (directional) tire and reinstall it with the valve on the right side of the rim. If it's a...

    How many States require a Motorcycle Endorsement for Spyders?

    I used co-pilot and asked this question; the response is: "Which states do no require an endorsement to operate a Can Am Spyder?" As of now, California, Nevada, and South Carolina allow you to ride a Can-Am Spyder without needing a motorcycle endorsement. In these states, a standard driver's...

    Where is the best spot for Jack placement?

    I didn't realize you can rotate the rear wheel by hand; I thought the belt would make it difficult. Still, that adds a measure of difficulty to checking the air pressure. I stand by my method as being the simplest, easiest and quickest, even though getting up and down is a bit difficult for me.

    Here's 2 threads on blind spot mirrors. I purchased blind spot mirrors from Amazon for about $6, which eliminate the blind spot. https://www.spyderlovers.com/threads/to-choose-a-blind-spot-mirror-or-a-blind-spot-detector-or-both.156953/...

    Where is the best spot for Jack placement?

    Seems to be a lot of work to check the air pressure. Get the jack, position it properly, get 2X4's position correctly, jack the bike up, get down on floor to get to valve, Oh No, it's not in the position, lower bike and redo everything. Once a month I check tire pressure takes all of 15...

    Anyone tried a Ramp for the rear wheel to make adding air easier?

    I agree, backing onto a ramp and leaving the valve in an accessible position has odds like winning mega millions! It also seems to be more work then is necessary. Anyway I purchased the extensions from amazon. I only use the hose extension not the 90 degree valve. I just turn the ignition to the...
