• 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 Wrong With This Picture?

    Final Update!! Fixed, Problem Solved The "cap set" part came in Saturday. Still no answer as to why mine originally had a thin paper gasket, (see pictures). No one at three dealers knew why. The BRP people do not know why either. Anyways, we bleed the line, (tiny black chunks and all) and an...

    What's Wrong With This Picture?

    Can someone point me towards a part number just for the gasket. The one that came off (that was pinched and never on right from day one). Is shot. I called three dealers and no one could help with that question. Still waiting to hear back from one. Grrrrr, someone help.

    What's Wrong With This Picture?

    I thought I would update my previous question about my hydraulic issue. I took off the cover and this is what it looks like. The fluid is a clear as could be, but as you can see, very low. Also the rubber gasket was in perfect shape not pinched or anything. Is it just a matter of topping it off...

    Clutch Cable Broken?

    Thanks everyone. I just need to ride it into my toy hauler and bring it to the dealer. There was one other minor bulletin I believe they need to update while I am there.

    Clutch Cable Broken?

    Came back from vacation and some great riding in Lake George and the Spyder ran fantastic. The next time I got on it to put it away, the clutch lever just pulled in with no resistance. It was in neutral so it started but when I pull in the clutch and put it in 1st it cuts right out. Any...

    Replacement Parts?

    I know it would help if I asked the question right. One reason why I never do my work on Spyder.

    Replacement Parts?

    I just took the Spyder around the block to dust it off and noticed the right front plastic cover (behind the air filter) is missing. Where can I buy a new one? I am going to assume through a dealer. I would rather just order it online - but from who?

    Nicked Paint

    As I nicked an area about 1/4" outside of where the sleeve covers the whole, I need something to cover the nick. Any ideas? Maybe a larger rubber gasket? Just irritated me when I did it. You think I could change a simple antenna without nicking the paint. :cus:

    Question??? With all respect.

    For me it was the overall feeling of safety with my wife on the back. I had a very nice Victory Vision, I dumped it twice, once slipping on gravel (solo) and another doing a U-turn with my wife on the back. Minor scrapes but enough to be concerned. I wanted to trike out the Vision, but no-one...

    Trailer loading problems

    After looking at many toy haulers for the Spyder, I finally found one that would fit. A little tight on both sides but it fit. My first attempt at loading it on, it hit bottom. I jacked up the front jacks and lowered the back (electronic) and have had no problems since. We do through a...

    How To Replace Snapped Atenna

    Thanks everyone, I was finally able to get it off with a 7 mm deep socket. Still am pissed I nicked the edge and a small spot (shows with the boot on) grrr. I used the Walmart one for now, but will upgrade the chrome shorty soon. I love this forum and can not wait to be able to help others some...

    How To Replace Snapped Atenna

    I am going to try the deep socket method as soon as I go buy the right size, I have very few deep sockets. I will let you know, cant get any worse as I already caught the edge and marked the Spyder. No the boot came right off, of course I dropped that behind my work bench to make matters worse.
