• 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.

    Gloves - How long should they last

    Hi everyone! This might sound dumb. I bought recently a pair of gloves, they have leather palms and are cloth on the outside. I bought them because of reviews and also because someone crashed with them and they did a good job...

    Problem with brakes or front wheels or ?? I need as much help as I can get

    My first trip with other Can-Am Spyders that was put on by BRP here in Mexico!

    Yes you are so right. Unfortunatly here there are not very many riders to choose from. So I most likely will continue to ride solo. Better safe than sorry. Sent from my SM-N900 using Tapatalk

    Problem with brakes or front wheels or ?? I need as much help as I can get

    We are putting it back together now, and I feel like things will be fine. Going to test drive it later today (gotta go to the Doctor for my shoulder right now, having some issues with it, they will be injecting some gel in it I believe. We will see, hurts pretty badly, no accident or trauma that...

    Problem with brakes or front wheels or ?? I need as much help as I can get

    Here are all the pictures, and I think things are good to go. I found out my guy removed the screw, the clips so fast and easily while I looked away at some other thing (like sending pictures on the cell here) that I never knew he had removed these things. So now I feel quite competent with this...

    Problem with brakes or front wheels or ?? I need as much help as I can get

    I am a bit worried that at the dealer (3 weeks ago) they did not put it together right again "IF" they really checked them. Because other people have PMed me that it shouldn't be so easy to remove the pads. That I should have to do more than just slide them out, maybe this is my problem. I am...

    Unbelievable brakes!!

    Tightening up the screws to #50 and #75 how do you do that? I am new and have my brake pads off at the moment, and the calipers. I want to be sure I put it back together right. Appreciate the help!

    Problem with brakes or front wheels or ?? I need as much help as I can get

    The noise like metal you hear is the disc that is loose on there after we removed the brake pads from the caliper. It was rattling around on there a bit, I tried to avoid it but it is hard. I am not as coordinated as I used to be hehe. Anyway the disc I laid it flat on my glass table and it is...

    Problem with brakes or front wheels or ?? I need as much help as I can get

    Ok, do you think I can used the warped discs for a while or does this put my bike out of commision while I wait on them getting here (weeks)? Also does everyone think I need to keep stripping it down to look at #28 stub shaft? Thanks again.

    Problem with brakes or front wheels or ?? I need as much help as I can get

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wuCvNepRYQw&feature=youtu.be here is the video that shows the hub not making any noise at all. Do you think it is normal to be able to remove the brake pads without taking off the calipers? It did have the anti jiggle clip in there, and we took that off then...

    Problem with brakes or front wheels or ?? I need as much help as I can get

    Oh and I am happy to be learning more about my bike, it is ok that we are doing this even if it ends up to be nothing. Hopefully that is the case, and if not well we are learning to be our own mechanics...I think the pads look good, they seem whole with more life to them, and seem fine....(I...

    Problem with brakes or front wheels or ?? I need as much help as I can get

    Ok, I got more info. I am going to do another video as the gopro is just so far away! But hopefully it will help. After taking out the brake pads (my guy did this rather than take off the calipers he left to buy the right die to use on my wrench to get the screws out and I believe it is...

    Problem with brakes or front wheels or ?? I need as much help as I can get

    Working on videos to post in a bit, just waiting on my guy to be able to remove tires, jack it up a tad to rotate the tires and such with a tripod on the camera....I was using my cell phone before as the gopro perspective is so huge that the video might be not very good....don't know, learning...

    Problem with brakes or front wheels or ?? I need as much help as I can get

    Where can I get the Service Manual online? My guy says the REAR TIRE is rubbing or making that rubbing like noise.

    Problem with brakes or front wheels or ?? I need as much help as I can get

    Do you mean "would remove the calipers and spin the wheel, if the noise stops than it probably is not a brake noise and either something got bent and is rubbing" or don't you mean if the noise stops then it is most likely a brake problem? Without the calipers on right? Sorry, but what you said...

    Problem with brakes or front wheels or ?? I need as much help as I can get

    Hi everyone! I had a problem. I almost wrecked my bike, I was lucky and didn't. Whew. I was at fault but so was the guy in front of me as we were going together as a group and I am the most newbie here (he is too but this is his second Can-Am) anyway, he stopped suddenly and I had no time to...

    My first trip with other Can-Am Spyders that was put on by BRP here in Mexico!

    Downtown (this is basically the cream of the crop when it comes to Mexico City, anywhere "important" like this (Pedregal, Roma, Coyocan, Centro) will have a gazillion cops, you would think they would worry more about the areas that need them, they are all friendly and nice, I had about 12 or so...
