• 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.

    One year on the 2018 and all is good......

    A quick search for Extended Warranty will return a number of posts on the topic. Most folks seemed to be paying around 600-700 for a 3-year BRP extension, usually via a dealer like Sierra Cycles.

    What an extremely strange coincidence

    Subliminal messaging from BRP? I fail to see where the snowboard was strapped onto that Ryker...:joke: Have a safe trip!

    Picked up a 2017 RT Limited with 3100 miles this week!

    I had to panic stop the other day...pulling out of an intersection, the rider in front of me mis-shifted and stopped short...I was too close and had to jam the brake pedal...but stopped in time, no skid...guy behind me told me later that my rear wheel came up about 3 inches off ground.

    Newbie Questions

    If I'm coming from any speed to stop, I'll typically let the SE downshift itself. I selectively downshift more often when I know I'm going to want the extra rpm's for the next curve or hill...so, if I'm slowing down from say 50 mph to 30 mph, I'll drop it from 3rd to 2nd. If just straight...

    Almost hit a semi today

    Glad you're okay! Was on a group ride yesterday and after stopping for fuel, as we pulled out of the station, the enabled rider in front of me on a custom Harley trike stopped dead short (is possible the hydraulic shifter missed or something) and I had to slam the pedal to prevent a rear-ender...

    Was a Spyder a Mistake?

    With only a year and half and 5k miles, my dog in this fight is minimal. I did a decent amount of reading here, but nothing I found scared me away. I'm not really mechanical and don't do or plan to do too much on my own (yet), but my dealer (dedicated Can-Am) is 40 miles away, another dealer...

    Questions about Ryker

    Same issue on every Spyder, not specific to Rykers. I've gotten used to the "float" and compare it to driving my dad's old Caddy. Some rougher back country roads can make the ride a bit more jittery, but again, I've learned to compensate, mostly.

    after market equipment

    Dunno...but I know I asked about putting non-Kenda's on when the time comes, and was told "not a problem" as long as I provide the tires. They'll also install the "abc-brand" fender lights if I want. And they installed the Bajaron swaybar before I left with my purchase.

    First solo...

    Got the missus out for her first solo Spyder Ryde the other day...25 miles on some nice country roads. I was following on the Virago, keeping the tailgaters away and giving positive feedback and directions via our Sena headsets. She did really well, only crossing the yellow line once or twice...
