• 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.

    Considering a 2012 RT - Any one out there have good words on them?

    The 998 V-Twin is a great engine. If ridden as designed, it will last a very long time. The 2012 was the best V-Twin RT model made. Most parts are still available for the older RT's. This is more true for the 2012 than the 10 or 11 models. We've only had issues with a few components on the...

    'The Lamonster Chronicles'

    #8 - Wires to the Badlands! (Part-2) You can find Part-1 at post #37. Lamont did go to the 3-Wheeled Sturgis event in Deadwood. The Spyder had gotten a great deal of bad press in those early days. As many of you coming off 2-wheels will attest, there can be a pretty steep learning curve going...

    You're right. AI is a bugger. But this is the real deal. Not in production, nor are there plans to do so. But it's not fabrication. I want to see how it stops... Click Here:

    The Spyder is no pavement burner, but it's no slouch either. That night at the drag strip, Spyder against Spyder, was more fun than you can imagine.

    'The Lamonster Chronicles'

    I really liked Yazz. She was a lot of fun. She was riding an SM, but that night at the drag strip she was not doing well against other riders. She was usually a very happy person, but I could see she was getting frustrated with her performance. I wanted to help so I said, 'You're using the...

    Cat delete, is it worth the money

    Other applications using the 1330 have turbos. We have a side-by-side in the shop right now with one.

    Cat delete, is it worth the money

    You should look into the turbocharger. I don't know if they are still available. But that makes a fair amount of difference.

    'The Lamonster Chronicles'

    No, this is a different 'Doc'. Doc Humphries came along later. I'm sorry, I cannot remember Doc's last name. He was a specialized surgeon in Florida, if I remember correctly. I haven't heard from him in years. But he and Forrest used to be big celebrities in the Spyder community in those early...

    'The Lamonster Chronicles'

    Yes, Doc got involved with BMW who was, at the time, experimenting with the reverse trike market. I believe that Doc was riding one of their GG Taurus prototypes. But they were going to be very expensive. I think in the $80k range if I remember correctly. Doc also shepherded Forrest around in...

    #8 - Wires to the Badlands! (Part-1) Early on, maybe 2008 or 2009, Lamont decided to go to the ‘3 Wheel Sturgis’ event in Deadwood. At the time my Spyder was starting to miss. We put a lot of miles on in those early days. I changed out the old school; fat copper electrode spark plugs it came...

    Lamont & I paid about $15k for our 2008 GS Spyders out the door. That pricing didn't last long though...

    Can Am Spyders Resale value isn't great...

    Yes, I can see that this rule of thumb isn't going to apply everywhere. Here in Tennessee we always have a good number of customer's Spyders for service. Some waiting to get worked on, some waiting for customers to come get them. In the spring, we get a great deal of inquiries to purchase them...

    Those BBQ days were special. Does anyone remember Doc and Forrest? The dynamic duel. Those were very special days. Good times!

    Prices are always down this time of year. Sell in the spring, buy in the winter.

    Thank you for the well wishes! While our politicians might not be happy with our Northern neighbors. It's good to know that we can still count all of you as friends!
