• 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.

    Drag Races Are On!!!

    Good questions! A little history... In the beginning, in '08, there were GSs. Their engines were called 900s. In '10 the RTs came out. BRP decided both the RS and RT engines should be the same and derated the engine and called it a 998. Bigger number, but it was derated. I have a '09...

    Alaska and the Dalton Highway

    Ah jeeze, the road to the Arctic Circle is nicely paved with a gas station between Fairbanks and the Arctic Circle monment. You can make it there and back in a day. Once you get passed Cold Foot, the road gets rough. Don't let those hairy-scarums deter you from your goal. Been there...

    2008 Spyder GS SM5 Restoration

    My original coolant reservoir cracked. The new OEM reservoir is more robust and have had no problems since. It's still plastic and you can shine a flashlight on it to read the fluid level. "I guess whoever put on the exhaust system didn't install a new gasket on one side as seen in the photo...

    Go Eagles!

    I usually watch the Super Bowl for the commercials and half-time. Not really into football because of all those take-a-knee-millionaires. This time, both teams stood with their hand over their heart during the National Anthem. The game was great from beginning to end! So much so, I became...

    Hugger for rear wheel...any rumors of one?

    That looks like it's might be made by Vertika, but the video was made in '13. With the RS no longer being made, that may be a problem. You can always ask if they still have some... http://www.vertikatrykescanada.com/index.shtml?cat=SPYDER%20parts%20not%20painted I love a blast from the past...

    2008 Spyder GS SM5 Restoration

    You got a great deal there. Congrats! The Phantoms were made in '09 with matt black plastic skins. It was the forerunner of the RSSs. Nothing fancy under the skins, just a different look. The rear brake fluid reservoir - The two caps must to have the 'ridge' pointing to the rear or it will...
