• 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.

    Squared Away In Nor-Cal

    I'm hurt. Joe and Ann have worked on my Spyder for me twice here in Las Vegas since I got it a few weeks ago. And they are gonna do it again this coming Wednesday. And I've never gotten a Wedgy from them. Wait. Oh. Never mind... :yikes:

    Review: BRP Connect. With only 10 reviews is it still possible to talk about solace in #?

    Are you serious? 10 people who left a review doesn't mean only 10 people downloaded the app. Geez! And do your research. It is a well known fact in any customer review process that more people who hate a product will post a bad review than those who have no issues with it posting a good...

    FOBO Help

    Ann, Might be true. And I'm not dissing anybody who says they have had FOBO problems in the past (or even now). But I have to be honest...a lot of the "advice" I see on this forum in the short time I have been here is just plain inaccurate. It happens in the BRP Connect posts, and another...

    Eco Mode - What is this thing actually doing

    Hmmmm...I wonder if, after I installed the new Firmware update that shows the remaining mileage for the amount of fuel remaining, if having my Spyder in ECO vs non-ECO mode will change the amount of miles remaining that is displayed. Would seem that if ECO mode is a "fuel saver" and "mileage...

    FOBO Help

    Have you tried rotating your sensors? Or disabling the one you are having the problem with, then reinstalling it? Or deleting your entire FOBO account, THEN reinstalling everything again? All those things are explained in the User's Manual. It's an "electronic monitoring system" with "theft...

    Spyder mods after a back injury

    Motorcycle accident 3 years ago. Surgery to replace 3 herniated disks pressing into spinal chord and nerve roots in my neck (C4 - C7) with 3 bone grafts and 9 screws holding it all together now. I had major pain in my SHOULDERS and UPPER BACK prior to the surgery, and AFTER the surgery too...

    Spyder Idiosyncrasies.

    An addition to bushrat's suggestion: Get a "Crampbuster" to use on the right hand throttle control handgrip. It does not interfere with your ability to grip the handgrip when you need to, and when you don't need to "grip the grip" you control the amount of throttle input using the palm off...

    Driving Lights

    I used to have something similar on my Honda. But for us mechanically challenged folks....:shocked:...I just looked at the "Can Am" mounting kit for the Darla lights. Where do those get mounted on the Spyder? Front wheel struts low to the ground? Looks like the whole assembly for each light...

    Bye Bye Spyderfest - after 10 years, they've pulled the plug!

    Don't kid yourself. Social media is social media. Doesn't matter what the "group" is talking about. Whether someone refuses to use it or not is up to the "variety of reasons" that LifeLongRider said. If you are worried about security, you are just as vulnerable here (on THIS social media...

    Tried FOBO...didn't like it

    Heck, I tried 2 different hand held tire gauges (one digital and one analog) and also used the "settings pressure" on my automatic electric pump in my garage to compare with the FOBO readings. None of the 4 of them agreed with each other, but the largest variance between any of them and the...

    2018 Spyder RT SE6 LMTD Headlight Switch

    My primary use of it is to have a 33 ounce plastic water bottle with a flip-top opener on the top that I can open with just my left hand while riding. I ride with a Roadcrafter Aerostich one-piece riding suit in temps well above 100+ degrees in the desert southwest where I live. I wear LD...

    2018 Spyder RT SE6 LMTD Headlight Switch

    If it's the Drink2Go one, I installed it on my 2018 Spyder RTL a week ago. No problems with my headlight switch working correctly after using their longer screw. I can't vouch for any other year's make or model though.

    Tried FOBO...didn't like it

    I'm late to this thread, but I just installed the Fobo 2 on my 2018 RTL yesterday. iPhone 6S using the newest FOBO app download. It was easy. Everything installed with no problems following the instructions provided with the product (YES...take your phone out of it's protective case and...

    Can Am Spyder survey -- "Error 404"

    "404" is an addressing error on the website's end. Their own link to the web address is "wrong", or their own website for the survey isn't working correctly and you can't connect to it for now. There is nothing you can do about it until they fix it on their end. You can get a variety of...

    2019 Spyder RT Limited - Firmware Updatee

    Tell your dealer their computer based data system is NOT correct. Tell them to plug in the darned update cable then look at the RT's digital screen to see that the update is available. If they say that isn't so, tell them to call BRP while you are there. If they still say no, tell them you...

    Caannaaam

    LOL! Reminds me of two teenagers I walked by in northern California wearing my Aerostich one-piece Hi-Viz yellow riding suit several years ago (while I was still on 2-wheels). One of them sarcastically said, "You're a BMW rider, aren't you? (snicker)". I said, "Nope. I ride a Honda NT700VA...

    Review: Question 2018 Dash

    The "loading" screen is normal, but mine doesn't flash. Not sure why yours is flashing. And mine shows "loading" for about 10 - 15 seconds after pushing the "Mode" button instead of your 5 seconds. The Owner's Manual actually says to NOT do stuff like twist the throttle or mess with any other...
