• 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.

    One year on the oil & filters, but only 900 miles - is it OK to change just the oil?

    As for the maintenance schedule, on Page 119 of my 2024 Spyder RT Operator's Guide it has the following: The key point, at least to me, is "whichever happens first". Every other vehicle I've owned has similar language regarding service intervals.

    Installing the Backup Camera on an F3 - Instructions identify Camera Supports needed for F3 & RT

    Can you provide more context as to what your picture is showing? I assume that's somewhere above the rear wheel, but where? Under the passenger seat or under the top case or somewhere else? What do I need to remove in order to get to that location? I'd like to see if my 2024 Sea2Sky has the...

    Installing the Backup Camera on an F3 - Instructions identify Camera Supports needed for F3 & RT

    Yes, the 2025 has a connector. I have seen nothing to convince me that a 2024 has the correct connector.

    I updated OTA software/firmware on my 2024 S2S - anyone else seen the back-up camera option?

    So I went out and connected my 2024 Spyder RT Sea2Sky to my home Wifi network, and asked it to check for updates. No updates. But I did see the Camera option, and when I put it in reverse the display did change to show the box and lines that you would expect to see when backing up, but no...

    Do you change the way you ride with a trailer attached? For safety??

    Check your Operators Guide. The one for my 2024 Spyder RT has the following information on Page 91: Maximum weight on trailer tongue: 18 kg (40 lb) Maximum towed weight (trailer and cargo): 182 kg (400 lb) Google thinks a set of golf clubs in a bag weighs 20 to 25 lbs. Then you'd have to add...

    ODOMETER GONE MISSING on my 2024 SPYDER!

    Flapjack, I'm in the US and ride a 2024 RT Sea2Sky, and I have updated the software on my Spyder. In the US Operator's Guide, there's information starting on Page 43 about how to control/change what shows up on the display. That section is titled: Central Display Hopefully there's the same...

    2025 RT Ltd GPS/Navigation - will it work with Android phones, or must I have an iPhone & headset?

    Yes, if you want navigation on the Spyder's display. You can still mount your Android phone on the handlebars, and use it to navigate without using the Spyder's display. The question I don't know the answer to is wheter you can Bluetooth pair your Android phone with a helmet headset.

    Daylight Saving Time - Make sure to adjust your Spyder clocks - Spring Ahead!

    I just went out, took my Spyder off the battery tender, turned the key on and set the date and time. Turned the key off and removed the key. Waited for it to completely shut down, and then inserted the key and turned the key on. The correct time was showing, so I navigated into the settings and...

    I just checked my 2024 Spyder, and it shows the date as: April 8, 2021. :oops: I as so surprised I didn't even look at the time. I'm guessing it reset when I replaced the battery I killed. :LOL:

    Looking for Battery recommendations & sources to order from?

    When I stupidly left the key turned on and killed the OEM battery in my 2024 Spyder, I bought a replacement from the local Batteries Plus. I ordered it online, so they had activated it by the time I picked it up. After installing it in my Spyder, I hooked it up to my Battery Tender Jr and was...
