• 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.

    So let's see how these tires & new 2up shock works out!?

    If you switch alot, riding one-up or two-up, the upgraded two-up shocker is too basic, the fox shocker, is too weak on the spring, if you want the real experience, try a shock with a hydraulic pre-load adjuster, you will love it. Trac-tive makes them, Elka does too, but they have been having...

    New rider, confession and question

    All the given advice above is good, but REMEMBER, get comfortable on your spyder, THEN do the upgrades, They all make a difference, Spyder is good outta the box, but can be much better after upgrading SWAYBAR, TIRES, Shocks, in that order.. That worked for me, my F3 runs like a dream now, even...

    Weak brakes! Stock Ryker brakes suck - Any other calipers fit?

    Martin has a set for the spyder, not ryker, quite expensive tho, Spyder brakes are good outta the box, just need to replace pads, (when worn), with EBC brand, they are way better as stock pads.. Dunno bout the ryker, but imho, BRP likes good brakes

    Spyder back in the shop again - more Can-trash Faulty Parts!

    Am with you on some points, but as with every machine, if it has moving parts then it WILL break down at some point; and on a global scale, parts are scarce. For example, I ordered a New Electric Mini for delivery in week 22, only now they've postponed it until week 37... and that's not final...

    2014 RT-S went in for Spring tune-up - Instrument cluster now dead!

    Me thinks, that dealer would be prepared, to do some discount, to keep a customer happy... parts will fail overtime, but it worked when brought in, hard to tell, Op has a point, but also the comment from Bigbadbrucie, makes sense. The Truth leis in the middle, If this would happen with a...

    suspension coil spacers for Ryker?

    Did you provide weight to elka? are these shocks hi/lo adjustable? Did you set pre-load with the ring around, the coil, or only via the knob on the extension hose.(just for my understanding) the lenght of movement on this shock is rather short, I don't think, that it has sufficient travel... I...

    Anyone running Mike Capon's Shock Factory shocks?

    Googled Mike Capon, looked at the shock for the rear and for the way it is fitted on the Spyder; the knobs to set hi/lo and rebound are not accesible, or you'd hafta cutout the inner fender. They look good, but that says nothing about used shaft and oilseals. IMHO I would go for a hydraulic...

    Who is using a Pedal Commander? What do you think of it?

    Martin the vlogger, has em directly from the factory, with ce approval, he's easy to talk to, and his responses are quick, ordered a few times from heim, and he's fast with shipping. Pedalbox, and even the commander are just about the same price, and IMHO, the pedalbox is better, cause if you...

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

    Springs are easy, use a paracord, or any kind of strong rope, make a handle from a broomstick, drill two holes in it, then knot the rope, make it long enough, and pull hard,

    Who is using a Pedal Commander? What do you think of it?

    I use a pedalbox, same as the pedal commander, IT WORKS... I have a custom tune, om ny spyder, and the pedal Box makes the throttle more alive, Scary when put in sport+++ mode, that's when you wanna go to a dragstrip, but I drive with the sport mode, and it changes the character of the machine...
