• 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.

    2008 GS Rear Brake Caliper Piston Will not Retract fully--Need advice!!

    Got a brake failure code on my 2008 GS SE5 with 27,000 miles on it. Fluid a little low which should clear the code, so decided to put new brake pads on while checking everything. Front pads show almost no wear, but the rear pads needed replaced. Pulled the caliper per instructions on the...

    Seat Interchange Question

    It looks like the seats from all of the GS/RS series will interchange at least up until 2013 where I stopped researching. Would appreciate confirmation or info on the subject. Thanks

    Need info on How To Install new paddle shifter

    On my GS, the harness goes way down below through the frame, so I can not see the plug. Would be much simpler if up high like the one you are describing. Thanks

    Need info on How To Install new paddle shifter

    Could not find the Lamonster video you referenced or info under the instructions.brp.com pages. Several different shop manuals on the internet for download and/or cd. Any suggestions on which ones to use. Have found over the years that not all shop manuals are the same or as complete.

    Need info on How To Install new paddle shifter

    I do have the owners manual, but not the full shop manual, so may need to get a copy. I am already very familiar with removing body panels. Looking for exact wiring harness routing and what all needs to be removed to save some time. Pretty long harness that snakes it way through the frame...

    Need info on How To Install new paddle shifter

    Recently had laser alignment at Cowtown and bike sure tracks better down the road. Had a Transmission code that popped up and BUDS indicated a soft shift which was cleared while at Cowtown. ( Great people there by the way, just almost a 3 hour drive from where I live.) The problem reappeared...

    LED Light Recommendation for Patriot Guard Rider

    LEO Escorts :2thumbs: We do have LEO escorts some times, but not as much in the past as city, county and state police are being restricted more due to extra cost associated with the escorts. As an ARC( Assistant Ride Captain), I have talked with the Senior Ride Captain and he is fully aware...

    LED Light Recommendation for Patriot Guard Rider

    T3 Bright LED The dim mode may be a needed option and I definitely will control all by rocker or toggle switches. I have been looking at the following lights that have pattern change, are dimmable and have a good brightness range. Wonder if anyone has tried these...

    LED Light Recommendation for Patriot Guard Rider

    Feniex Lights Now we are getting somewhere!!! Looks like a good choice. Hope they have a dimmable option as well as pattern flash change. Some of the guys I ride with tell me that an extremely bright light can be annoying as can be if you have someone riding in close formation behind you...

    LED Light Recommendation for Patriot Guard Rider

    Flashing/Warning Lights on Spyder I usually end up riding toward the rear of the PGR motorcycle group since the two wheel bikes are up front followed by trikes and my Spyder. I am usually the last bike since my Spyder is bright yellow and have both a PGR and US Flag, so it makes it easier to...

    LED Light Recommendation for Patriot Guard Rider

    I have been doing Patriot Guard Missions to escort fallen veterans during funeral processions and am looking for recommendations for additional LED lights. Often, we are on interstates or 4 lane limited access roads. Too often drivers do not pay attention to the funeral procession even when we...

    Can you stand on Rivco CA020-WO Floorboards?

    Mounting your floorboards I used a long extension and socket to break the nut loose. As I recall, Rivco provides a longer bolt to bolt on the brackets. There are lots of threads on the proper way to jack up your Spyder without damaging it. Rather than give you my take on it, it is much...

    Torque requirements on changing oil

    Specs from 2008 Oil Change info The info below was copied directly from the owners manual of my 2008. I would think there is similar info in your owner's manual and know it would be a good idea to not just guess. Stripped threads on a Spyder would get expensive really quickly! 25.Screw the...
