• 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.

    2008 ECU

    Ok guys need some help here. 2008 GS, low miles only around 17,000. Suddenly lost power and went into limp mode even though the 08 doesn't call it limp mode. Took it to dealer and they have eliminated everything down to the ECU (computer). $500 plus for the ECU new. Dealer is telling me...

    BRP are you listening?

    Okay how do I say all this without sounding like a complainer? In my opinion it seems like the more enhancements BRP tries to make the further they get from their roots. I had an 11 RT and now have an original 08 GS so I feel somewhat qualified to make that statement. Granted, the three...

    08 squeaky brakes

    Not complaining. Love my 08 GS. But the brakes squeak to a point where it's almost embarrassing. Dealer says it's unique to the 08s and that it's nothing to worry about. But does anyone know a way to quiet down these brakes?

    were to buy a no chip key

    Had no idea a non-chip key was even an option. The information one learns on this site never ceases to amaze me.

    In-laws

    So my sister and brother in-law have been here since Friday. Three glorious riding days and the Spyder has just been sitting in the driveway with the cover on. It would be total and absolute marriage suicide to even uncover it so there it sits. Can anyone feel my pain?

    GS handlebar setback options

    I just bought an 08 GS. Am told the handlebars have been set back but I'd like them back even more. Ideally so I'm able to sit without leaning forward at all like an RT. Is that doable?

    Back in the saddle!

    Yeah when you're as mechanically challenged as I am I've found that the best thing to do is form a good relationship with your dealer and become a loyal customer. We've lived in three different states since I bought my first Spyder and I've always been able to find good dealers that I can...

    Dealer Assembly?

    Welcome to Spyderland Pam. You'll find that first costs and maintenance costs are high but for me the motorcycle experience with the security of three wheels is worth every penny!
