• 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.

    My BEST Discovery

    While I was going though all the previous owner's Spyder paperwork, I discovered a card, A BEST PROTECTION CARD that expires 30/09/13. Is purchasing more BEST coverage recommended? So, what will this do for my pooting, rough running Spyder? At this point, I am not willing to remove a $600...

    FUEL MANAGEMENT ADD ONS

    My 2008 SE5 needs a fuel managment add-on. It has a Hindle and a racing filter (oval and rounded red foam rubber). I understand that there are at least three, the JUICEBOX, JUICEBOX PRO, and COMMANDER. I thought, with good illustrated instructions, I might be able to figure it out myself...

    PARKING BRAKE POSITION

    I've been told that the sporatic "brake-pedal" message and the red blinking light has nothing to do with making an adjustment. The day I brought HOT RED ( HR ) home, the top side of the rubber pad on the parking brake was touching the little 3/8" flat inward turned bottom edge of the Tupperware...

    THE CAR WASH AND A DIP STICK

    I watched the video clip posted by PILO that shows, or shows for some, how to adjust a parking brake. At the beginning of the video the guy talks about... the brake pedal going all the way down, and you can hear the pedal going down with the click click click noise. According to him, the...

    MOTORCYCLE VOLTAGE MONITORS

    Battery Life

    What is the typical life of a CanAm battery? The previous owner of my 2008 GS SE5 kept it on a tender all the time. After 16 months of ownership, I have to charge it almost every time I want to ride it now, even if I rode it 10-15 miles the day before. Also, not only do I get the "low...

    Missing Air Box

    A friend and I installed the missing heat shield and the air management part. The next part to be installed was going to be the new Evoluzione air filter. Imagine our surprise when we saw a bright red one piece oval shaped w/ rounded top "high flow" foam filter that fits across the 2 valves of...

    Some New Concerns

    I have two new concerns about my Spyder. First, this has been occuring for quite a while, but it is now getting worse. It started out with backfiring and now it is not doing that, but it is running really ragged and completely dying. It starts back up, but should it do that? The missing is...

    Someone please help me.

    Last night I noticed only one of my glo ryders was glowing. When I shut the Spyder off, the glo was still glowing. It finally went off. At 11 PM I drove the Spyder home and noticed the same one was still glowing when I shut the Spyder off. This morning it is still on. I got my book out to...

    INSTALLING SPYDERPOPS MISSING HEAT SHIELD & AIR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

    I have ordered the "missing heat shield" and "air management system" from SpyderPops. I have little knowledge about working on this 2008 Spyder SE 5. I am afraid to try to install these parts myself, but if someone has installed them I'd like to know how hard it is to do. I would be most...

    A Warning

    A QUESTION ABOUT TRANSMITIONS

    As some of the members here might have noticed in the posting I made regarding the purchase of my Spyder about two weeks ago, it came with a manual transmition. The seller told me that he quickly became tired of the effort needed to shift gears, so he had it converted to a semi-automatic. I...
