• 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.

    Has anyone had experience with an Akropovic 3C silencer? Will one fit a 2021 RTL?

    When I purchased my first Spyder (a 2020 RTL) I had the dealer replace the stock muffler with an Akrovovic muffler. After two years, I traded that bike for a 2022 F3L Special from the same dealer and traded the 2020 in on it. I had dealer take the Akropovic muffler off the 2020 and put on new...

    Spyder Headlights are Great!

    All three Spyders I've had (a '20, a '22, & a '24) had the low beams set to the low end of the specs. I re-aimed all three bikes to the upper end of the specs, which made a very positive result.

    Kenda tires - I truly don't understand the hateful responses to Kenda tires. I have over 22,000 km on mine and they're only 50% worn.

    Two Spyders and rear oem tire got around 16 -18K Same my previous Harleys rear tires.

    I've gone from ATGATT to H (just Helmet).

    It is your own life to live your way. When riding, wear what you feel is right. I do say though, just because you feel it's right for you, that doesn’t mean it is the right thing to do…

    Can battery voltage be seen on an 2022 RT's screen?

    I do not recall seeing it on my 2020, or 2022, but since the dash change starting in 2024, you can bring it up.

    24 RT with a Delay in gear upshift, but not all the time - anyone else? Any fixes?

    I am on my third Spyder (20,22,24) and all have done this occasionally while shifting up through the gears. A momentarily stumble, at least as I perceive it. It does not happen often enough for me to get concerned.

    The things you learn...

    Human instinct is when all else fails, then get out and read owners manual.

    After some True Can-Am insight - will I be making a huge mistake buying the RTL or F3?

    Considering a Spyder - Can I Ask You Some Questions?

    Having owned both models and taken multi-day rides two up. My wife prefers the RTL because of the heated seat and more room. Personally, I prefer the F3L.

    Just wanted to share a riding story - hitting a swarm of yellow jackets!

    Years ago while riding through Washington State on a nice summer day, while riding with shorts on, I felt something bite me hard up under the shorts pant leg. It was a honey bee sting, and it left a large welt for quite some time.

    2024 RT L back at the dealer for the 9th time in 3 months!! How long until you give up?

    Replacing your 2024 RTL with a new 2025 RTL… and extended warranty would be my choice.

    My first really, really close call on the Spyder

    Speaking of red lights, I see more and more drivers going through lights that just turned red and what they are doing is assuming the three second delay between turning red before going green for the other direction. They must think that they can count good and in sink with traffic control box.

    My first really, really close call on the Spyder

    As has been quoted time again, “Common sense is not that common” People now a days just do not pay attention to what they are doing. I have become more aware of the “other” driver than ever. Takes something away from enjoying the ride, but that is the way today is.

    87 Octane seems to work just fine

    On my third Spyder, and 87 octane has been used in all three, riding in the desert to the mountains, hot and cold, and my bikes have performed without any issues. But that is just me…

    Getting close to decision time. I need some input from those who have ridden an F3-L and RTL?

    Yes, I have owned both models. Yes, I like the F3 over the RT. No, not as tall as you. Yes, both can be modified to meet your needs.

    Sunday morning thinking out loud - on my Third Spyder, making the move from Two Wheels was a good choice for me!

    Sitting around and the brain begins to zip around. I was thinking back to when I traded my 2017 Harley Ultra for my first Spyder- 2020 RTL. I had to drive about 275 miles back home. The first few miles were a definite wake up call. Several times I had thoughts that this was a mistake. With...

    My New 2025 Sea-to-Sky - any suggestions on what gear or upgrades to get first?

    The newer Spyders from the factory are better set up than pre 2020 Spyders. Many perceived problems with those bikes are more from inexperienced riders who do not ride much. If I had a chance to do it over I would have gone from my Harley to an F3-L instead of going to a RT-L, because of the...

    My New 2025 Sea-to-Sky - any suggestions on what gear or upgrades to get first?

    As stated several times, ride it for a while and get used to the bike. The 2020+ models are built such that you do not need all the after market suspension stuff. Evaluate how you and the bike handle together before listening to what other riders think. Some owners buy stuff because of what they...
