• 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.

    Stupid!! To have to remove 4 Panels and 2 plugs just to change the oil & filters!

    I will be changing the original two-different-sized drain plugs to Gold Plug drain plugs at the next oil change. Both use 17mm wrenches, just like "real" motorcycles, and the magnets are supposed to be super magnetic. As for changing a headlight bulb on an ST, yeesh... who thought that process...

    Trans Canada Highway

    You will see a LOT of differences from 4 decades ago! The highway is great all the way.

    Trans Canada Highway

    Trans Canada Highway Options I would have to agree with that. There are actually trees and bushes and towns to see on the route mentioned (above). Another WONDERFUL option is to go on the route above to Jasper, then take the Icefields Parkway from Jasper to Lake Louise. What a thrill...

    both hips replaced want a spyder

    Hip Replacement Spyder Rider I have had both hips replaced. If they were replaced properly, there is no issue with throwing the right leg over the seat just like a motorcycle. Please note that I do have an ST Limited with floorboards ... FLOORBOARDS are what you want to consider.

    Spyder Dealers in NW Ontario Thank You! I guess I need to look at the BRP site a little closer!

    Spyder and Skidoo - Parts and Service

    Skidoo Dealer Assistance Parts = no problem. Service = depends on the dealership and whether they want to tackle a Spyder or not. On my smartphone I have a PDF document which is the Spyder Maintenance Manual.

    Potential new owner question

    Don't Hesitate! Like all "consumer reports", the majority cover the "bad" things. The vast majority have nothing but good things to say about products, and the Spyder is no exception. DO IT!

    Spyder and Skidoo - Parts and Service

    From BRP dealer "protection" that probably makes sense, I suppose. I was thinking more of the people like myself who have no option except hundreds of miles of separation.

    Spyder and Skidoo - Parts and Service

    I have seen several persons noting that they have limited to no availability of a Spyder dealer in their area. I live in Manitoba (Canada) and there is only one Spyder here. Next door, in Saskatchewan, there are only two. Between Winnipeg (where I live) and Toronto, Ontario there are no...

    Trans Canada Highway

    You will have a ton of fun! My norm as a solo ryder is about 800 km (600 miles). The non-Interstate (two lane only, not four lane with a median in between) part of the Trans Canada stretches from around Sudbury through to almost Winnipeg, and again from around Lake Louise to Kamloops. Do...

    Dongle and winter storage

    SM10 Dongle and Winter Storage What the heck is an SM10 "dongle"? Here in Winnipeg, for winter storage I only ensure with any of my motorcycles that the fuel tank is filled to the brim with Premium fuel (never have used Stabil etc.), stuff/jam dryer sheets in every conceivable open space on...
