• 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 did you do to your Spyder today?

    We rode in-laws to Harrison Hot Springs in NC Canada, back to Lake Stevens Washington tomorrow. Took back roads coming North and will take others going back South.

    Has anyone tried an Automotive glass pack muffler on their RT?

    I have done a lot of things to my three 2018 RTL's, however I have left the exhaust stock. Like my 2021 F150 with the 2.7L ecoboost V6 325hp/400 lb ft that pulls great when you stick your foot in the turbos without making a lot of noise, the Spyder with the 1330 ACE motor in stock form pulls...

    Any ideas on what might be causing this (((Vibration))) on my 15 F3S?

    Did the BajaRon sway bar upgrade to my 2012 RT (on the cheap)...

    I made similar home made links for my Kawasaki KRX 1000 along with pins, so I could quickly remove or install them on both front and rear sway bars. The bars on the SxS were much larger, and I never had an issue with them. The KRX weighed in at 2550 lbs.

    2012 RT SM5 - Will sway bar end links alone make any difference?

    Just bite the bullet and put on the HD Sway Bar and Links. You will be happy with the results.

    Any ideas on what might be causing this (((Vibration))) on my 15 F3S?

    Might want to have them balanced. Kenda tires are more or less noted to have balance and other issues. Do you have a friend that would let you swap their front wheels and tires onto your rig? You could also jack up each front wheel/tire one at a time and turn the tire by hand while holding a...

    In Arizona we ride all winter, move to the other trike and ride all summer in Washington.

    It's official! I'm a SpyderLover.

    If the display firmware has been updated you will see distance to empty in the left center of the display. My first two 2018's needed the update, the most recent one already had it.

    It's official! I'm a SpyderLover.

    Also check to see if the front sprocket and transmission output shaft recalls have be completed. The transmission shaft is a big deal. Both are covered by BRP, with the transmission one having a mileage limit. Dealer will want it for most of a week to do the transmission recall, and if the...

    It's official! I'm a SpyderLover.

    Looks like a nice low mile Spyder. If it still has the OEM tires, I would advise you to put new tires on it ESP. I just did that on my most recent 2018 that had only 4100 miles on the clock. This on the rear: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B6JR9C75?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1...

    Is my Air bag leveling? Any way to make it more noticeable when adjusting the ride height?

    I am noticing that on my most recent new to me 2018. Never felt it on the other two.

    My 2014 Spyder RT won’t go into Reverse when warmed up. Works fine when cold. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for any help.

    When the condition is present, with help from another person. One could reach up and push back on the lever while the other tries to shift it into reverse. If it shifts, then you will know what to work on.

    Which Battery tender works best - OptiMate 3 or the Battery Tender Junior?

    When I bought the most recent 2018 RTL, it came with a Battery Tender Pro.

    Is my Air bag leveling? Any way to make it more noticeable when adjusting the ride height?

    Manually let the air out, if it has the schrader valve under the rear seat. Then start it, it should raise back up. I tested my first 2018 RT that way. That is the only time I they heard one run on one of my 3 different 2018 RTLs.

    Rodents chose my 16 RTL as a home

    I replaced a cable to the left front speed sensor on a lady friends 2017 RTL that was chewed into two pieces. Down the street from her in the Az RV Resort, another Spyder had to have the main wiring harness replaced, to the tune of thousands of dollars. I place Tap Cat's under my trikes.

    Recommend anyone who can be trusted to do a Laser Alignment 'right' in Washington State?

    I think my in-laws 2014 RTL needs a laser alignment and the power steering system checked over, as the steering is "heavy" on it. I know Pro Caliber in Vancouver could do it. His Spyder is in Everett Wa right now and goes to Chelan, Wa also; anyone else around Washington who could be trusted to...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    When we do the fall trip back to AZ (travel in my truck only) via the coast, we may just do the Avenue of the Giants; as with all the trips done traveling back and forth, starting back in 1967 while in the USCG at Point Arena Loran A station on the coast, I have never taken that parallel route.

    Old Gold Wing rider considering a 2012 RT need help finding a fair value for it and advice.

    I bought my first 2018 RTL in the fall of 2020. In January of 2024 I bought another 2018 RTL in the Asphalt Grey color I really like, and did a 6 day 1850 mile bucket list relocation of the first Champaign Color one to Washington State from Arizona. In the fall of 2025 I sold the Washington one...
