• 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.

    New Spyder driver that get sore after 1.5 driving.

    I was going to suggest something similar. You can get bicycling underwear at many places including Amazon. They have integrated padding in the nether regions. I use for bicycling (I don't look good in bike shorts and can wear these under cargo shorts) and the ones I get are $14 USD on Amazon...

    American Motorist Association Y/N?

    Fifteen plus years a member for its political advocacy. A lot of people dislike or misunderstand motorcycling and without the AMA our voices would not he heard. Take the issue of small dirt bike sales being banned as part of the law prohibiting lead in toys. Made no sense but took an extensive...

    How well do you like your BAJARON sway bar? ??

    That's about what I was charged for installation as well ($60) while having my other annual service done. $269 seems very, very high.

Asked if they would want to park a vehicle In their attached garage that put out enough gasoline fumes to permeate the family room and kitchen. Answer was... call BRP, they should be...

    Come Ride with us ( Joan and Lamont )

    I may be able to meet up in E Stroudsburg and ride for a bit through PA. Too bad not a day earlier. My son lives near Harrisburg and works for the PA National Guard. Would have spent Saturday night at his place.

    2013 Can-Am Spyder RT Safety Recall - Elevated Temperature in Engine Compartment

    Agreed. This is a complex issue which appears to involve heat, evap canister, boiling fuel, etc. To suggest the customer find the solution -otherwise whining - is just an ignorant and rude. BRP has the engineers who designed the vehicle and are best suited for a solution. I have my own job and...

    2013 Can-Am Spyder RT Safety Recall - Elevated Temperature in Engine Compartment

    Cricket Cricket So, I directly and respectfully asked @BRPcare twice in this thread about the gas fume issue and my 2012. Sadly, it looks like BRP is going to ignore my question and safety concern. The silence does say a couple things. First, that BRP and the NHTSA are not looking into this...

    2013 Can-Am Spyder RT Safety Recall - Elevated Temperature in Engine Compartment

    Hi Steve..thank you for your comments and insight on the announced recall. Regarding the gasoline fume issue, are there any separate actions or inquiries taking place (for any of he model years) on that issue? This too is a very real safety concern for some of us here. I cannot park my wife's...

    2013 Can-Am Spyder RT Safety Recall - Elevated Temperature in Engine Compartment

    I have a 2012 RT with the strong gas fumes issue. I know 2012 models are not part of this recall. Anything further expected for those with earlier models and the gas fume concerns?

    BRP Frustrated at Pockets of Popularity

    Back when I bought my BMW in 2008, I actually really wanted to purchase a Buell Ulysses. The H-D dealers which also sold Buells were so disinterested in selling Buells, that it turned me off and I found something else to buy. I agree with the comment that if he is ticked off at the dealer...

    My trailer solution to carry Spyder

    Very creative ��. I would also recommend cross-bracing those lift blocks. They could otherwise risk collapse with the twisting and shaking forces (and the weight which you mention) over a long trip at highway speed. I admire your ingenuity. :-)

    STILL RIDING ??

    Had hoped to get ours into the dealer for service and Baja Ron anti-sway bar installation this weekend. But melting snow and road salt - and temps supposed to be in single digits or teens - made me delay that.

    Praise the Lord and Thank BRP

    Glad you lived to tell. Road debris and items falling from trucks and RVs are on my watch list when riding. Scary.
