• 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.

    All New Ryker ?????

    That's a good thing, because in the opinion of some people on this site. If you buy a Ryker you are no longer a Spyder owner. :gaah::roflblack:

    2019 F3L price drop.

    It looks a lot like the one on the Ryker.

    So it's called the Ryker!

    It's going to be the Spyder version of the old Enduro bikes from the 70's. A ride made for both on road and off road, but not the best at one or the other.

    New Spyder Owner - RS 2010

    Nelson Rigg makes excellent soft saddle bags and passenger seat bags for the RS. I've used both for a 6 day trip, and had plenty of extra room. They are easy to take on and off also.

    Have we now gone from "it's not a real motorcycle" to " it's not a real Spyder"?

    The worth of a 2008GS SM5?

    You can look at the NADA values for it. If you're taking it to a car dealership it's hard to tell you what they will offer. I wouldn't expect much over 5-6 thousand though.

    Ryker Ykester!!!

    I think I'll be selling my GS next spring and getting a Ryker next fall when they are trying to get rid of the 2019's. The Ryker works for me. I don't go touring. More back and forth to work and pleasure rides on the weekends for at most a couple of hours. I'm not worried about trying to go...

    So it's called the Ryker!

    That's the way BRP is looking at it. Get the new ryders to see what a Spyder is about, and then get them to buy the more expensive ones next. I'm also seeing many people talking about the Ryker as a second Spyder for their significant others. Again that gets two Spyders in the garage where...

    2019 F3L price drop.

    If they did, that's a failed tactic. People don't understand that the price is lower and don't feel like they are getting a good deal, like if they are getting a rebate. JC Penny tried that also, rather than putting everything on sale, they just lowered the price to what it would have been with...

    I think Stryder is already trademarked from a video game.

    So it's called the Ryker!

    The website says that DPS is not available. I wonder how stiff the steering will be?

    That picture is of the one with the passenger seat and backrest installed. Lol

    So it's called the Ryker!

    I don't know about the off road capabilities. I think they just mean gravel roads, which can be a problem for the current models. I don't see them intending these to be ridden on a trail. Doesn't mean people won't try though.

    So it's called the Ryker!

    Go to the Can Am website they have all the details up now. You have two engine choices a 600 or 900 Rotax. Looks like they want to to be able to take it off road. Hand guards, splash guards, tires with a more off road tread.

    So it's called the Ryker!

    A shaft drive and automatic transmission. I'll take the smaller motors, looks like a stripped down F3 with no Frunk storage space.

    shifting

    I shift my 998 in the 6000 - 6500 range. It shifts smoother at that range, than if I shift at a lower RPM.

    Amish Buggy

    I also live with many Amish. They have never been spooked by my Spyder, but horses can get spooked by anything. They are animals after all. Cars will spook them even other horses. I just try to be careful passing them, many around here don't use hand signals when they turn. Yes dodging road...

    09 Roadster - OEM Fog lights

    They did make fog lights. That is what they used in Europe for low beams. I don't know how easy it will be to find them, now that they stopped making the RS model. It's getting hard to find the BRP HID headlight kit's for the RS's.
