• 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.

    Kudos to Rivco

    When they designed the Can Am RT floorboards, they took it from their design for Harleys. One thing they forgot to figure on was the fact that Can Am riders need to step on the floorboard to mount the bike, where Harley riders can just sling their leg over from the ground. This introduced some...

    Kudos to Rivco

    I was having the same problem others have had with the floorboard, so I gave them a call on Thursday. I don't recall who I spoke with, but she said that they would ship a replacement right out, and I should get it around Wednesday. Well, the mail came yesterday, and guess what??? My...

    F3 vs. RS

    I know many people who have multiple car "toys" just for them, I had 2, until we bought the Spyder. If you can afford it, and have space for 2, get 2. You may decide you like 1 over the other, and everything will work out. If not, then you can just grab the one you feel like riding... One...

    Red Headed Step Child versus F3

    I don't think so... The RS represents the "crotch rocket" design with the way you sit. The RT represents the "goldwing" crowd The F3 represents the cruiser type. If anything goes, I'd bet on the ST... Bottom line, BRP will probably watch to see which line drops in sales as a result of the...

    water bottle mod

    Keep us updated! This project was on my "to do" list after my current project gets off the ground. Be aware of the power consumption. The TEC coolers draw quite a bit of power - Mine is about 7 amps. It may be too much for the magneto to handle.

    At least they didn't put the safety card content in a message box on the screen so you have to scroll all the way through before you can hit the mode button...:shocked:

    Arguments

    Arguments vs. discussions Discussions can be based on opinions or facts, as one persons fact can "appear" to be an opinion by another person who has not had the same experience. That being said, discussions should occur, and they should be directed at things, events, or even behaviors, but...

    Can- Am Bluetooth

    If your Cardo are capable of A2DP (Listen to music via Bluetooth from a phone, etc...) then you can use the BRP Dongle (Sena SM-10) to listen to music. The compatibility issue comes in with intercom functions. Different brands of comm units don't like to talk to each other. The phone and...

    Brake Failure

    Check the rear pads. When our brake failure light came on, my rear pads were gone.

    Seeking advice

    Not coming from a 2-wheeler, well, I had about 30 years to forget all that stuff, I wonder if it's harder to adapt the longer you've been on 2 before you move to 3. I know it took a while for me, but I was over controlling, gripping too tight. As soon as I relaxed, things got much easier. I...

    New Rear Automatic Trunk Light

    I like to see how different people come up with different solutions. I used LED strips, and a regular switch. I hooked it in to the power going to the plug in the back, and since I leave the trunk open while in the garage (for battery tender to plug in), I wanted to be able to manually turn it...

    should Stewart be held accountable?

    If the family goes ahead with the civil suit, Tony, other drivers should counter, as the toxicology report stated that there was enough in his system to impair his judgement. He endangered all the other drivers there that night. I was watching this close, as Tony is known to have a hot head...

    lovers web sight

    If you can get to other websites, but not to Spyderlovers, check your DNS settings. I was using the DNS servers provided by Time Warner Cable, and had some problems. I changed all my settings to use Google DNS servers, and haven't had an issue since.

    Android developers?

    I'm looking for someone who is proficient in Android development, and testing for an app Idea I have. I see a few in the Play Store, but they either get bad reviews, or they don't work exactly as I want. Any takers?

    should Stewart be held accountable?

    One thing people fail to realize is that these cars have no clutch / transmission. There is a T-Handle on a pull cord that disconnects the rear gears if need be. Now, put yourself in the drivers seat... Even under caution, you are travelling a minimum of 40 MPH, probably more in reality...
