• 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.

    What's best for Cleaning the Windshield? Anyone use Pledge?

    On my F4 Custom windshield it’s a spray made with 1/3 hydrogen peroxide, 2/3 water, spray and wipe it off with terry, micro, paper towel or whatever is handy. The imperfections in my windshield are from rocks, etc., I encounter while ryding, not from cleaning it. Simple solution, cheap, quick...

    What's the Best Phone Holder for Lamonster's Spyder Cuff?

    I’ve used the Phone Phang holder since it first appeared in Lamont’s inventory. It’s seen thousands and thousands of mile on all types of roads. It doesn’t wiggle, holds my phone securely, the phone can be removed with one hand and the price point was great.

    Has Anyone Tried the Can Am Nolan Helmet

    I have used Nolan helmets since 2011. For me the fit is good. They have a wide view face shield. As noted by a few previous posters, the older N-Com systems were not very robust. The N43 Trilogy I still use for around town, shorter distance or super hot days. My main helmet is the Nolan N91...

    Another Beta Tester

    It’s always amazing to me the differences of opinion on tires, oil, etc., related to Spyders or any other equipment. I’ve had three Spyders, an RS, am RT and now an F3Ltd. I’ve traveled the country putting upward of 141K on them. Unscientifically, regardless of the model, Kenda’s have done just...

    Negatives of mounting front Camera behind windshield?

    I have my GoPro mounted behind the windshield in the center of the dash. Seems to me most of the negatives listed are just as negative if the camera is mounted out in the open. I’ve never experienced problems with reflected light. My windshield doesn’t shake.

    Congratulations !!! It’s been awhile since I’ve been your way. Linda’s new ryde will be a great excuse to swing by to see you all and the new Spyder. Coffee anyone?

    Deadwood 3 wheel Rally

    Did Pikes Peak in August 2020. It was awesome and a piece of cake. A few BMW’s and a couple of Honda 3 wheelers overheated and a Harley blew a transmission on the way up. Wanted to ryde up Mount Evans, but it was closed due to the virus. The campground at the base was literally packed with...

    Which Extended Warranty do you have, likes and dislikes

    I’ve used Zurich extended coverage on my last 2 Spyders (12 RT & current 17 F3L). Have had I believe 5 claims on the 12 in 5 years, 55K miles) and once on the 17 (3.5 years, 52K miles). Never had an issue with any of the claims. They were 7 year policies and cost about $750, if memory serves me...

    Heated Grips - Warm Enough?

    I am in total agreement with Blacklightning. F3 Ltd heated grips are better than no heat, but are not near as warm as the settings on my former RT.

    My F4 took one for the team

    Two years ago, when ryding through the Sand Hills in Nebraska, out of somewhere, wind, a semi truck going in the opposite direction and some object came together to severely crack my F4. It didn’t break free, but the crack lengthened noticeably as I rode on west. I called, explained the...

    Many Thanks to Westside Powersports in Spokane

    I had never, ever seen a belt be off alignment like this. At this time, it’s logical to assume the belt alignment wasn’t done correctly.

    Many Thanks to Westside Powersports in Spokane

    It seems too often we drop to the lowest levels to complain and/or belittle Spyder dealers for various reasons. I too have had a few issues with poor or ugly service, but overwhelmingly the experiences have been quite the opposite. I prefer to express gratitude and thanks to dealers who help out...

    Zumo XT will not connect with Garmin Basecamp

    There are a number of routing programs available. There are also a number of threads on this forum about them. I have used myrouteapp for years and it’s great.

    Zumo XT will not connect with Garmin Basecamp

    Might it be suggested to stop using Basecamp and try a different routing program that works with Garmin, including the XT?

    10k mile-stone...

    Thanks for sharing your 10K odometer personal moments. I’ve done the same thing, but only since I started ryding Spyders and without the screeching stops ;). I was near the Wooden Boat Museum, NY, along the St. Lawrence River on my RS, in the Black Hills on my RT, and near the Bodie Island...
