• 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.

    Red Dust of Death Recall???? Front Sprocket Recall - FINALLY....

    In 2019 I had my pulley replaced by a dealer in NV with Loctite. No cure time was mentioned and I rode the Spyder to St George, UT immediately afterward. When I had the pulley replaced a month ago for the recall the pulley was still in good shape with no wear and no dust. After the...

    Anyone else a loner and not a group rider?

    I have taken many long trips solo on my Spyder but have also ridden with another Spyder friend. I prefer solo or just one other rider that I get along with and wants to ride with the same pace. On long trips it is also handy to have a fellow rider to split the hotel bill with and be available...

    A small Safety Mod to our 2022 RTL with a big improvement!

    Received my turn signal indicator and shift pad today. Excellent products and fast getting them here. It is nice to know that some of our Spyder members will take it upon themselves to improve a BRP part. Kudos to TCBoone and FrogmanDave.

    Do I really need a GPS?

    I have an iPhone with Google maps and a Garmin 595 GPS. Google maps works most of the time but sometimes a GPS is a necessity. For example I have been delayed by a wreck or a fallen tree, or electrical lines down on the highway and was in a location with no cell signal. I used my GPS for an...

    Brake lights work with key off - is that right?

    What are you paying for insurance? Who are you insured with?

    Your best bet would be to talk to an independent agent. He or she can shop rates from dozens of insurance companies and recommend one that would fit your budget.

    New 2012 RT-S Owner - Which Wheels? Tune-up Suggestions?

    Not sure if the 15” wheels will fit since they were introduced in 2013 with the new Brembo brakes. Also I would suggest changing the anti-freeze and brake fluid if that has not been done in the last two years.

    After nine years I finally got a New helmet!

    After nine years I finally replaced my helmet! I know, I should have done it years ago but just kept putting it off. It was a Shoei Neotec and was a great helmet. I replaced it with the Neotec II and it is an even better helmet than the original. It fits better, is more aerodynamic, and is...
