• 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.

    Will a Garmin Zumo 665 connect via Bluetooth to my 2020 RT Ltd? What is the latest firmware/software version for 2020's?

    I ride a 2024 Spyder RT Sea2Sky, and used a Garmin Zumo XT mounted on the handlebars before CAN-AM got the Carplay issues fixed. I took a look at the Zumo 665 website, and there are two sections in the description worth reading: Keep In Touch Stay Entertained Both mention pairing your Zumo...

    Any thoughts on Ground clearance on the RTL?

    Spyder RT Limited ground clearance - 4.5 in. (115 mm) Canyon ground clearance - 6.3 inches (160 mm) 1.8 inches (45 mm) more is not "much higher". The Motorcycle Safety Foundation offers a 3-wheel Basic Rider Course: https://msf-usa.org/start-your-ride/basic-ridercourse-3-wheel/

    Are 2024/25 F3's missing the 2 Accessory Circuits? What have you done about this on yours?

    Hi all. I ride a 2024 Spyder RT Sea2Sky. On my Spyder there is an accessory power port behind the plastic panel on the right side of the Spyder next to the right front wheel. It does not require a separate fuse block to be added. I added a Nelson & Nelson docking station similar to the one in...

    My Beast's first service..

    I saw your post and realized my Spyder should be coming up on it's first service, and when I checked, it's 3 weeks past it's first year as mine! I went out and checked, and I've ridden less than 700 miles. I'm meeting with a group for a ride on Saturday and will add another 100 or so miles. So...

    What from the 24+ F3 updates could be retrofit to previous years?

    My first guess is that you'd also have to replace the computer modules that control the upgraded components. Probably cheaper to sell the 2023 F3 and buy a newer one.

    In search of an Ultimate Trailer OHT3 designed for hauling Spyders - any input?

    I have a Stinger trailer so I can drop my Spyder off at the dealer when it needs service, as they don't do scheduled service appointments.

    Your Weather News @ March Edition 2025

    I attended an https://msf-usa.org/ 3-Wheel Basic Rider course over the weekend (my second time going through the course) using my Spyder, rather than the Ryker 600's the training organization provides. Another student also brought his own Ryker Sport. Other than the bikes and the training, most...

    Canyon Sitting on the Showroom Floor!

    I found the Mountain Motorsports website, and after a bit of clicking narrowed it to their Greenville, TN location, and CAN-AM. It's showing two Canyons in stock. One Canyon XT (Sterling Silver Satin) and one Canyon Redrock (Moss Green).

    Stickers or Wraps to cover Existing Paint - any Custom or Templates?? Other ideas?

    Keys - my 2024 S2S key came in a sheath, so when the key is in the ignition it's just the key, with no keychain dangling on anything. If the panels are already damaged then the choices are: 1) replace the panel, 2) cover the panel with something Wraps are hard to install, since it takes time...

    Here's the word on Spyder RT Radio Outputs direct from The Manufacturer!

    I would also suggest looking for "marine" speakers, which are designed for exposure to the elements. Speakers for a car or truck are not designed to be rained on.

    Springtime Pre-flight Inspection - don't skip over the first brake fluid change!

    The Operators Guide for my 2024 Spyder RT says to replace the brake fluid every 2 years, regardless of the odometer reading. The Owners Manual for my 2023 Honda Ridgeline says to replace the brake fluid every 3 years, regardless of the odometer reading. The Spyder's Operators Guide calls for...

    There is a customer accessory power port on my 2024 Spyder RT Sea2Sky. It's behind the plastic above the right front wheel. I installed a CAN-AM 2020 RT SPYDER 12 VOLT DOCKING STATION SRT20-1U12 (1-USB, 1-12 Volt) I bought from SpyderExtras.com. The Acrobat PDF Installation Instructions are...
