• 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.

    Experienced Riders and Riding Gear - Am I kidding my self ??

    I recently started an infamous thread after riding on my RT S without a helmet for the first time, something I would never have considered on two wheels. I don't begrudge the ATGATT militants and their approach, I simply want to balance safety and enjoying myself. Let's be honest, if safety...

    First Time Without a Helmet

    But now you've been indoctrinated, INCLUDING being told to "rest in peace". :cheers: There are only two subjects that get this sort of reaction here. You've just hit upon one of them, as you can see. The other, well... I'll just say that I hope you don't stumble upon that one unaware...

    First Time Without a Helmet

    From the first time I went on two wheels I have been ATGATT follower, full face helmet, riding jacket with Kevlar panels. Bought a 2014 RT S SE6 about a month ago in New Jersey and breaking it in as I prepare for an epic long ride this fall. Really having a good time. Already I have shed the...

    Waves?

    Same Wave Ratio First, that list of why which bikers don't wave is hilarious. Second, when I rode my Victory Vision (with lovely Arlen Ness graphics) I got about 80% return waves. Third, I have only had my 2014 RT S for about a month and I still get about 80% return waves. Fourth, yes I get...

    Silly Question - Spirit Bell?

    Newbie Spyder owner back with another pesky question (I have 2014 RT S SE6 Cognac, working on getting pix and data into a new profile and getting paid status - patience, I can be slow!) My girlfriend has given me the gift of a spirit bell and insists I mount it on the new Spyder (I had a low...

    Top Box Chrome Luggage Rack

    New Spyder Ryder looking for input on the racks I have seen for the top box. Is this OEM or third party? What are the best brands if third party? If third party is this advisable to add to increase capacity? What would the max capacity? Would this in any way damage the top box cover? Many...

    Spyder is a Love Child of...

    Still breaking in my brand new RT-S SE6 and having a blast. In trying to describe it to friends I tell them it is like a fast snowmobile on asphalt but many have never been on a snowmobile (me either but I read that description somewhere). It occurs to me that if I could tell them it is a...

    More spare key chatter

    I've seen several good ideas on taping or securing the "valet" key (without the chips) in places from your wallet to spots on the bike (recently the glove box or behind the mirror - good idea!). All for emergency access to a hidden working key elsewhere on the Spyder. I am gearing up for a...

    Two things I cannot find

    I have a new RT-S (for about a week) and cannot find the tool kit I am told should be under the seat. Where should I be looking? Also, I have NY EZ Pass and went online to change the vehicle associated with the device from the motorcycle I traded in to my new ride. But I do not find BRP or...

    Service costs - Am I getting taken to the cleaners?

    I have a brand new 2014 RT-S and the manual clearly says 3,000 miles. When my dealer gave me the walkthrough they insisted I bring it back after 600 miles for first check up. My paranoia is that if I wait until the 3,000 mile service and something goes wrong I get a finger wag from the dealer...

    RAM MOUNTS for 2014 Spyder

    I traded in a Victory Vision for my 2014 RT-S. On the Victory I used two Ram Mounts quite successfully (one for water bottle, one for iPhone that I sometimes used for EZ Pass). There are not screw in locations for the Ram Mounts on the handlebars of the Spyder. A quick check of the Ram Mount...

    Soon to be Newbie Spyder Ryder

    I live in the NYC area. Within a couple of weeks I will be taking delivery of a 2014 Can-Am Spyder RT-S SE6. Several years ago I test drove an RT in the hills of PA and enjoyed it and recently traded in a Victory Vision to get this one. Several questions for those that wish to chime in. a)...
