• 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.

    Can-Am didn't get the memo I guess - 2023 Electric Motorcycles release....

    It’s like a watermelon. You cut through the green and all you find is red. No thanks on any EV powered vehicle for me.

    What polish to use on S2S matt paint?

    Wash it when needed with a high quality car wash soap that doesn’t contain wax but if the label says that it has conditioners in it that is okay. There are some chemical companies producing a coating that you can apply specifically made for matte paints. I haven’t used them and don’t know what...

    Were any of these vehicles a Dodge? I swear they are owned by the worst drivers.

    2023 rumors - anyone heard anything about the 2023 release?

    I’m still waiting on my 22 RTL ordered in January. I thought BRP stopped Spyder builds by this time of year to focus on snowmobiles. My dealer thinks my new Spyder will arrive fully assembled but just when hasn’t been determined. I think and believe this current supply shortage is not going to...

    Can you see me now?

    To me that would be annoying but to each his own. Do you have the ability to turn some of those off? Is it legal to operate with all of those lights on in your area? For sure you will stick out to other drivers at night and I hope they don’t get mesmerized by the attraction and run into you anyway.

    Should Tupperware be this far off

    Part of the sale price is cost of your Spyders assembly. It doesn’t seem like an unreasonable request by asking for an adjustment given that you paid for it. As a former Master Automotive Technician who as part of my work being new car preparation I was expected to make minor adjustments if...

    Alignment tip worth reiterating - check your tire pressure!

    I didn’t notice anything on the Spyder that could be “Aligned” other than setting toe-in. Setting toe in/out doesn’t help or create any vibration or pulling. It can cause an offset of the handlebars in consideration of the two front tires and increased tire wear but I assume that would be a very...

    What is a reasonable expectation for how often to hear fm dealers while waiting?

    I wouldn’t hold my breathe for one moment nor waste any of my time expecting a call from someone who has nothing to offer or say because it is out of their control. I would rather enjoy my life in other opportunities.

    Anyone received their 2022 Spyder or news on Delivery, Delays, & Omissions?

    My 2022 RT-L Hyper Silver w/Chrome Package was ordered in January. I called the dealership last week and was again told not until August. I asked if the bike was there and awaiting parts and I was told no. They said that the bike will probably ship fully complete in August. Probably with my luck...

    Dealer claimed they couldn't release my Spyder if it failed the sprocket wear test!

    That’s standard operating procedure for every safety recall notice I’ve ever been involved with. Either they have the new replacement part in stock and the repair is done immediately or in the world we live in today, we wait for the replacement part to be delivered on a as needed basis. I hope...

    Got an Ez-pass? Where did you mount it on your Spyder RT ?????

    I put mine under the lid of the frunk too. If the EZ PASS can be read through a laminated glass windshield than it can easily be read through the plastic cover lid. I have had zero problems or any issues at all with this installation. I use four small pieces of the Velcro brand Alfa-Lok adhesive...

    Did you have to wait long to acquire your new Ryker?

    I put a down payment on a 22 RTL January 27, 2022 for a bike from my dealerships allotment. The bike was at that time due in May but now I’m told August. I recently heard from another salesperson and a different place that BRP has problems with getting some electrical parts across their whole...

    Topping off your fuel tank - is it good practice??

    When I go to buy gasoline for my car I bring a 5-1/2 gallon gas can and fill it up so I can top off my Spyder when I get home. I hate dealing with the gas pumps and trying to fill the Spyder at the station as that process is incredibly slow and irritating. I fill’er up like BLUENIGHT911.

    Just when you thought you heard everything; 5.2 million dollar verdict awarded.

    I wish we all knew the name of this Judge. Maybe he can be voted out?

    This is a question on how people are labeled based on their views

    I understand what you’re saying UtahPete but I disagree and will stand by my statement as the Constitution is as written today and I don’t want to get drawn into a chop salad of words having variable meaning.

    This is a question on how people are labeled based on their views

    In regards to the question that person may have certain libertarian feelings, be misinformed, unable to grasp the opinion fully with todays prejudice or could not care less either way. I on the other hand chose to be a strict Constitutionalist and it has served me well as I like to know all the...

    My module finally arrived and I took delivery of my new Spyder!

    Just a little Spyder information I can share with you because I haven’t had mine long enough to know as much as others on this board is that the drive belt is not supposed to be centered on the pulley. It should be about a credit cards thickness away from the inner edge. Hope you continue to...
