• 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.

    What did you do to/with your Spyder today?

    It was a beautiful ride, unfortunately it was a quick turnaround since I needed to be back by 1:30 but the weather was absolutely perfect. I'd love to meet up next time so I will reach out before I head that way. Glasgow looks like a great town.

    What did you do to/with your Spyder today?

    Taking a ride up to Glasgow Kentucky today, it sounds like a nice little town and I've never been.

    Is the Ultimate seat narrower at the front?

    Helibars do help, as does raising the floorboards. Being only 5'6" I did both to get mostly comfortable. Still thinking about a BRP comfort seat, $1200 if it doesn't help is a lot of gas money.

    What did you do to/with your Spyder today?

    Changed the oil in my Spyder and Ryker. That's about it for the day other than errands.

    Worn seat - can anyone recommend a comfortable a/mkt replacement?

    Ultimate seats are great if you're built right. They are thicker and wider and use their own backrests. If you are tallish they work great, if you are smaller the back rest is uncomfortable. I'm 5'6" and 150lbs with a 29" inseam. They don't fit me at all. I use a Utopia backrest which in the...

    How difficult is it to replace the Windshield on a 2022 RT?

    It's easy, just need lock the windshield in the up position as Smitty42 described above. I have the Freedom windshield that I bought from LaMonster. I think you will like it. It does a good job of pushing the air away with the curve at the top and it's a good high quality shield. In the image I...

    Does anyone have actual measured data for the various OEM Handlebar options Pull back on 2024+ RT's?

    They were too far back and I couldn’t get them at a comfortable height either. They just felt weird.

    Does anyone have actual measured data for the various OEM Handlebar options Pull back on 2024+ RT's?

    I don't have the answer to your question, I'm sure someone will. But just to offer you something to think about, I'm 67 and 5'6" so pretty close to your size, and I bought, tried, and ultimately resold the bars you listed above, then purchased a set of Helibars. The adjustability and comfort...

    I want Spyder/Ryker/Canyon dealerships to succeed

    I'm a little further West than you, I'm in Lebanon TN, but like yo, I want to go visit. I have a list I want done that I can't do in my current condition. Rear shock, EBC pads and rotors, a brake flush, and car tires. I figure one day I will just make an appointment and ride out, spend the night...

    New Owner of a 2024 Sea to Sky.

    Very worth the investment. They made the bike truly comfortable.

    Has anybody put Elka Stage II shocks on a 2021 RTL? Spring down, or up?

    You are correct. It doesn't matter, getting to the adjustment is exactly why they recommend spring down if I remember the install video I watched on the LaMonster Garage site.

    Has anybody put Elka Stage II shocks on a 2021 RTL? Spring down, or up?

    Love them. I added those and the Baja Ron ultimate sway bar and it made a huge difference. No rubbing at all.

    Has anybody put Elka Stage II shocks on a 2021 RTL? Spring down, or up?

    Spring down works just fine. I put them on my 2022 RTL last winter.

    Apple CarPlay update - what is the secret to getting it working properly??

    I love the ride from Lebanon to Cookeville on the 70, so pretty. Sometimes I jump off and cruise down to Granville and back around too.

    Wrapped my 2021 RT Limited

    Beautiful! I am not at all familiar with wraps so forgive me if this is a stupid question, but do you have any concerns about taking panels on and off?

    What did you do to/with your Spyder today?

    Took a nice ride from Lebanon Tennessee to Elkton Kentucky and back. I always use Google Maps set to 'no highways' so I can see the countryside, and sometimes I chose to ignore the 'quick way' it wants if I see a road that looks interesting. It always gets me there, and I get to see the roads...

    Wasted my $$ on Cardo Packtalk Bold - just wanted decent sounding Music, but it sounds like ****!

    My Cardo Edge with the 40mm speakers sounds good. I even have the half helmet kit with some speaker pockets from Amazon added with the JBL 45mm separate speakers they sell that sounds good. Nothing I would call amazing, but good. As was previously suggested, try moving the speakers around in the...

    Anyone installed one of these Chigee Aio-5 Lite nav systems?

    I installed the Aoocci C6 Pro. Very similar. I really like it. https://aoocci.com/products/c6-pro-motorcycle-dash-cam?variant=42251602198616
