• 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.

    Seat/backrest/passenger armrest selection advice needed

    We have a 2015 RTL in Circuit Yellow. Looking for seat recommendations. I really am at a loss here. I seem to bottom out on the stock seat after about 30-45 minutes of riding. Should I just install gel seat pads or go for a compleatly new seat and backrest? I have heard mixed reviews on the BRP...

    Hard starting 2015 RTL with 5k miles

    Only happened once (so far). I always use premium fuel, plug into a Battery Tender if the bike sits for more than 1 week and it's kept in a garage. Had not been started for 10 or so days. Went out to go to work yesterday and turned the trike on, started gearing up while waiting to start it...

    Folding Flag Mounts for Luggage Rack

    Looking for recommendations for a folding flag mount to fit the standard Can-Am RTL luggage rack. I believe it's a 1/2-inch tube. I had this type of flag mount on my Voyager and it worked well whenever I needed to put the rain cover on the bike. Just fold it over. I've seen them on Amazon...

    Oil over filled a bit ... I think

    I've been checking my oil after a ride and within the specified 2-minutes after engine shut down. It's hard to tell (for me), but I think it is slightly over the full mark. I know, I know ... should never over fill it, but that's the way I got it and I've put under 1k on it since I picked it...

    Tinkering with my belt

    I ordered a Cricket II to see what my belt tension is AND so that I would have it for when I need to replace the rear tire. Jacked up the rear so the tire was off the floor and checked the tension. WOW ... Checked several more times and got the same results. Over 300 ... off the scale! got out...

    Instrument panel turn indicator

    OK. I've not had even 50 posts yet, but, I've done a fair share of reading. I've also got a couple daze of wrenching on various vehicles. I know the instrument turn indicators are worthless in daytime hours. I have replaced the micro led instrument bulbs on a truck I once owned. They too were...

    "Black Hole" Lesson learned ...

    OK ... I messed up. Note to self ... Never use the back seat as a parts tray. So, while installing my "Magic Mirror Mounts" from Lamonster, I dropped two of the old plastic mounts into the dreaded BLACK HOLE. Now the real question is ... Where do these parts actually wind up AND can they be...

    What's supposed to be in the stock 2015 RTL Tool Kit?

    Bought my 2015 RTL used. I think I'm missing some tools from the stock kit. What is supposed to be in the stock tool kit? A list, if you don't mind. Also ... what should I add? I'm a biker from the early 70's so I know what a traditional 2-wheeler "should" have on board. Just wondering if...

    2015 RTL standard driver backrest & passenger armrest suggestions please

    Some of you may know that my wife, Deb, and I had to make a decision about our riding future due to her stroke this past Feb. She has progressed well and is determined to ride again, however, we both feel it was time to move to the Spyder community. We are selling our 2010 Voyager but found a...

    Guardian Bell Transfer

    According to the tradition and rule #3, I should transfer my bell to the Spyder. However, rule #2 states that the bell should be hung by the person that gave me the bell. Also ... you are not supposed to touch your bell unless it is attached to your trike/bike. Not sure if my buddy will want to...

    I am new to the Spyder community having purchased my 2015 RT Limited just 3 weeks ago. Finally got about 800 miles on the new to me Spyder now and I am beginning to see that some get OK/good stock Kenda tires and some do not. Apparently I did not. I am getting a 60mph wobble in the...

    Looking at a 2015 RT Limited ... Good deal or not?!?

    Hi all! Since Deb had her stroke, it's either give up riding completely or get a Spyder. Soooo, I think we are finally about to pull the trigger. Found a 2015 RT Limited with only 2,515 miles!! It is at a dealer that only deals with used bikes of all kinds, so I know they are in it to make...
