• 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.

    First riding weekend in MN

    Well, I pulled my Spyder out of the garage on Saturday after stopping Friday night for an outside storage cover (gotta protect my baby). Didn't ride myself but my boyfriend took it out for a couple spins. I'm looking forward to the upcoming warm-up and more riding weekends! Anyone else out...

    MN Repair shops

    I take mine to the dealer I bought it from -- Leo's South. That may be too far south for you though given where you're living. Leo's is in Lakeville, right off 35. I like the people there, have been satisfied with their service. I don't know their rates off the top of my head... they seemed...

    I created a monster.

    You should tell her that! Maybe she'll warm up to the idea with time and with knowing it's a great way for the two of you to spend time together.

    Top 3 Questions

    1. "how do you like that?" 2. "who makes it?" 3. "where did you get it?" Also, 'how much did that thing cost you' which I don't get that bluntly put since I'm in Minnesota and people think hinting around is more tactful than actually acting directly. I also find it highly amusing how many...

    Spider-themed parts

    The bug thing isn't my thing either. It's kind of disappointing to not see other options on mods -- flowers, lightning bolts, birds, anything else, really. I think it's just not popular enough to justify anything but the 'obvious' yet.

    Took My 1st Test Ride Today

    I did not test drive the Manual Spyder, I bought the Semi-Auto without test driving at all. As I told my sales person, I would rather be paying attention to my bike and the people around me in traffic than worry about what gear I'm in while slowing, stopping or taking off from a stop. I'd much...

    what do you wear to work?

    I'm in the casual work environment group and can wear jeans and a decent shirt and whatever shoes. I wear tennis shoes and haven't had any problem with heat on the Spyder.

    CAN-AM Spyder Review in Helmet Hair Magazine

    Excellent review. Thanks for linking it. (though the link doesn't work anymore, if you get to the error page, choose to go back to the home page then search for spyder and you'll easily find it)

    Floppy Mirrors?

    I wish I'd thought to ask, but I didn't. Other things on my mind at the time. I may be up there this weekend and can ask then. I'll update if I can later.

    F1 Foot Rest

    I don't like the look of them in the pictures. Though they look functional, I agree with most others that they don't do anything for the look of the bike. They're too hard/sharp where the bike is more fluid in look.

    Floppy Mirrors?

    I called my dealer and told them about the problem, they said bring it in and they could easily fix it. I took it to them and it only took them a couple of minutes and the mirrors are back to being as tight as they were when I bought it.

    An Interesting Comment

    Ooh, and brings up a potential interesting graphic design idea -- I've had a few of those the last few days.

    Floppy Mirrors?

    Of course I did. They're already as tight as I can get them. I also tried unscrewing them, repositioning and tightening them back up thinking there was maybe a notch or something that needed to be hit before they'd stay in place.

    Floppy Mirrors?

    So, I had my Spyder into the shop to have heliebars added and now my mirros flop around. I don't have mirror extenders, these are stock. Prior to the service they were so tight they didn't move. Can anyone give me any tips on getting these things tightened back up? Frankly it's dangerous...

    what else is available

    Saw a nice looking 3 wheeled Honda trike at the fair today. Unfortunately my boyfriend decided to talk to them about my Spyder and got dissed for his trouble. He'll learn one of these days. But their trike was pretty cool. Definitely a touring model -- radio, touring pegs, nice seat, good...
