• 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.

    Pedal Box/Pedal Commander Discussion

    I was tired of having to constantly change wrist/grip position on the sloppy OEM throttle. The Pedal Box in Sport mode has removed that problem for me.

    Does the ECU need re-mapping after cat-delete?

    As long as we're on the subject, I have a 16 RTL I bought with 1200 miles on it. As far as I know it's never been on the BUDS for any updates, other than the DESS disabled. Should I get it in somewhere for updates and will the Pedal Box make any difference if it's hooked up to BUDS? Right...

    Does the ECU need re-mapping after cat-delete?

    There's a thread on fB Can-Am Spyder Owners - Self Service & Technical concerning whether the ECU needs remapping after a cat-delete. My understanding it is once it is done, let it idle for 10 minutes or so and it will learn the changes. Others say it will run lean and shorten the life of the...

    I'd like to but not when the closest class is over 4hrs away.

    YANOT (Yet ANother Oil Thread) 22 RTL - anyone tried Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel oil?

    I like the T6 when I had a couple of Kawasaki Vulcans and now for the Spyder as well as the John Deere 4600 that is currently moving the snow while the RT-L is on the table going through installation of TriAxis handlebars, LED headlights and a Pedal Box.

    Frustration - TriAxis install '16 RTL

    Yes that's it. I did about the same as you did. I hate those hidden bolts that can't be seen and not mentioned in any instructions or videos. I finally found the GPS connecter behind the gas tank. I'm at the install point now and since I bought the bars second-hand, (on this forum), I'm...

    Frustration - TriAxis install '16 RTL

    I was able to find a couple bolts, unseen but got a socket on them. Recovered one from the floor and the other disapperaed into the innards somewhere. Can't get a socket on the other two yet..

    Frustration - TriAxis install '16 RTL

    When we were getting frustrated, working on a piece of farm equipment, a former boss would say "Some engineer got a bonus for designing it that way." Well if I ever meet that engineer . . . :banghead: Especially removing that plastic ring around the ignition. :gaah: Thanks to the gentleman...

    Just ordered VREDESTEIN QUATRAC SL.

    One other thing is putting a narrow tire on the wide rim won't be as tall as the same tire on a narrow rim. Don't ask me how I know. :shocked:

    Any portable air compressors to run off battery lead?

    One can get 10gauge battery tender leads on Amazon. I've used them for years in case I needed to boost start my bikes.

    Exhaust question - how will it sound without the cap on the baffle?

    Exhaust question - how will it sound without the cap on the baffle?

    I put on the Baldwin Iron Works cat delete with the baffle and end cover on it. It didn't add much to the noise level although it's easier to hear when one shifts, etc. I'm wondering how the sound would change if I removed the cap at the end of the baffle and left the baffle in? I wouldn't mind...

    RLS cat delete + TBR exhaust + Parking Garage = ??

    My son's Harley does the same. "No, you follow me" I said.

    Is training really needed to ride a Spyder?

    Anyone seen this Spyder Canopy before?

    I was following a couple that was riding to Alaska. They took a picture of a Gold Wing that looked very similar. They had a solar charger mounted on it and powered a small fridge. That wing was really loaded down.
