• 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.

    Dealer will not install car tire

    We have 2 dealers in our vicinity. Both dealers refused to mount a car tire on a Spyder until about a year ago. Now both dealerships will do it. Basically, they were watching many members of our Sac Chapter club pay a local motorcycle shop to mount them. Now not only do both dealerships perform...

    Things I do for you people... (Dynojet/Power Commander Saga)

    Black Cat Tattoo... I go to Black Cat Tattoo...but it is in Reno, not Vegas...my bad. If you check it out, ask for Icebox. He does top notch ink work. As for the dyno...I think you solved my problem...I have the JB Pro with Leo Vince exhaust, and there are no maps for my setup. I have created...

    Things I do for you people... (Dynojet/Power Commander Saga)

    Can you tell me where in Vegas you are getting this done? I go to vegas to get my tattoos...and would LOVE to have my Spyder on a Dyno. I tried last year, but couldn't find a shop willing to modify their setup for 3 wheels. I'd love to know the name of your shop, and maybe even a contact name or...

    Buying a new engine?

    WOW...$7,954.49 is a LOT of cabbage! I've seen many a used Spyder for that amount. I think I may be inclined to put that down towards a new Spyder..

    Drones

    Funny you mention this... I just bought my 1st drone a little over a month ago, and one of the justifications was that I could use it on Spyder rydes for a bird's eye perspective. I am now proficient enough, but it's been kinda windy lately. My drone will not automatically follow me, so I will...

    Dry Club or Not?

    To play devil's advocate...our club fed 25 families last Christmas, raised over a thousand dollars for the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation's Ride for kids, and many other charitable projects each and every year. That is what our non-profit organization does. Oh, and for the $20 fee to join, you...

    Dry Club or Not?

    Ann...as President of the Sac Chapter, I want to thank you for the kind words. Yes, the rule rubs some the wrong way, but 95% comply with no issue whatsoever. I consume alcohol...but not on Chapter rides. I am fine not having a beer for a few hours, until I get home. The object is to ride and...

    How many Can Am Spyders have been built?

    A legacy to be proud of, my friend. Many positive things have happened in your life this year, and this is just another example....a well deserved one, if I say so myself.

    Ebay find

    Bought a sweet looking Can Am shirt for $19 last week....my local dealer is selling the same shirt for $49. Shirt hasn't shipped yet, but from what i'm reading on the thread, it should be shipping any time. The rest of his inventory is not in my size, unfortunately.

    I had a Serious accident on my new F3!

    Thank you for sharing your story. As hard as it was for you to endure the incident, I think it served well to remind us all to remain ever-vigilant while ryding our Spyders. Often, it is "the other guy" one must watch out for...

    Why isnt' the Spyder more popular!

    Actually, all through the 2014 holiday season I saw daily Spyder commercials. They started showing for the 1st time right around when they brought Danica Patrick on board as a spokesperson. I was impressed to say the least. They also were on primetime shows such as Mickey Fisher's Extant. I do...

    iON 1025 Camera

    I agree with the LCD screen comment for the GoPro...invaluable. Should you decide to get a smartphone, there are apps that let you control the GPro with you cell...including seeing what you are filming, which is very nice on a large 5.5 inch smartphone screen.

    Mount for Iphone and IPAD lifeproof cases on Spyder

    Ram Mount X-Grip...I have a Note 4 Phablet phone with a 5.5 inch screen, and the Ram mount accommodates it just fine. I tapped into the existing screw on the left handgrip side and mounted the Ram Mount there. it is stable, and pics vid come out clear. I'll see if I can grab a pic a bit later...

    A Different Recall Letter

    I have a total of 3 new gas caps for my '08 GS...2 were sent from BRP and 1 replaced by my local dealership when the bike was in for routine service. As others have said, the recall is pretty old, but good to know they are still servicing the older machines under the old service bulletins/recalls.

    iON 1025 Camera

    It may not be a deal breaker for you, but as a GoPro user with a remote, I cannot fathom worrying about starting/pausing/stopping the camera without just grabbing my lanyard around my neck. It is not a requisite...but it sure is a heck of a lot more convenient. Often times i see our line of...

    new gopro mount (for Spyder or elsewhere)

    Intriguing... I am very intrigued with the idea of a 360 degree swivel mount for my GoPro and plan to buy one of these online this evening. Thanks for posting this!!!

    ISO Grip help

    I currently have Kuryakin ISO Grips on my '08 GS Premiere edition. Not sure why they would tell you they have nothing available for the Spyder. I've seen them on others besides my own as well. Although I do not have an answer for you, I can say that mine required no modification or special...

    Rear Wheel 45 valve

    Sue...there are posts here about using the 45 degree on all tires including the rear...same post mentions that the 90 does not work though. Was just reading through the post a week or so back :-)
