• 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.

    To do….or not to do? Should I replace these BEFORE they fail?

    I will purchase the parts and have them when I travel far from home. I’m confident that I’ll be able to sell them if not used in the future.

    Belt cover/guard: needed or not?

    It’s a cheap fit that Spyder vendors carry. Cheaper than a $350 belt.

    To do….or not to do? Should I replace these BEFORE they fail?

    Yeah, I know... where do you think the idea came from? A whole lot easier to find parts for a domestic vehicle than a Spyder Dealer. .... Ok, I’ll ride it until the new ride arrives... Thank you all for your input. Have a great day!

    To do….or not to do? Should I replace these BEFORE they fail?

    It would be good to know the percentage of failure for the Left Hand Combo Switch and Park brake motors so as to warrant a TSB and a new service part number.

    To do….or not to do? Should I replace these BEFORE they fail?

    2019 F3L. 14,000 miles Due to the high failure rates of the Park Brake Motor and the Left-Hand Multi-function switch - TSB’s were published highlighting their failures….

    What's the consensus on Kenda KR 20 rear tires? Better than stock?

    What is the consensus of opinions for the Kenda KR 20 rear tire? Is there an improvement over the stock Kenda? My OEM Kenda wore the center of the tread down in 6000 miles, I do pull a 200 lbs trailer. Just wondering if Kenda aftermarket attempt is an improvement over OEM.

    P280A/P0730 codes causing a head scratcher - anyone shed some light?

    Can Am has little to be desired when trying to find theory of operation. Looking at the wiring schematic, the Gear box position sensor (Hall Effect) sends information to the ECM for the engine. Then via the 2-wire communication link to the TCM where voltage is applied to the shift solenoids. The...

    My choice would be a fused relay using the "Customer Accessory" as the trigger for the relay contacts to close.
