• 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.

    2014 Can Am Spyder RT & 1999 CSC Escapade Trailer - need wiring HELP!

    You could always make up your own pigtail connection. Attached is the 9 pin DEUTSCH wiring diagram. Parts can be ordered from WireCare. It is an HD10 series connector. I did this for my first trailer which was a 4 pin, and now have one for my camper which is a 5 pin flat.

    BRP Side Box Luggage

    A good alternative is the Saddlebag Liner from Hopnel. We have both the Can Am bag liners and the Hopnel ones. Both work well on the RT and the STL. http://store.valueaccessories.net/SaddlebagLinerCAN-AMSpyderRT.aspx

    USER NAMES/HANDLES - What does yours mean? Where did it come from?

    My nickname through school years was "sox". My wife and some close friends call me "TJ". So I combined the two.

    Rain Gear

    I purchased seat beads from Value Accessories at one of his Ohio rides.. They not only resolve the cold puddle in the crotch area but also provide added comfort for long distance riding. A great solution.

    Best way to ship spyder across canada ????

    Give Team Vincent Motorsports in AYR a call. Talk with Dave. They have contacts with a company and have crated up several Spyders for customers who shipped their bikes out west to Edmonton and then rode them back home.

    2014 Spyder Rs rides without giving gas

    I would suggest bringing in a certified BRP technician and give the bikes a good going over. They have taken a beating from the salt rich climate and many tourists who rent them with little care. I know it will be at a cost but it is your investment in the ongoing business. We did rent two bikes...

    "Rampage" Power Lift System for the Spyder

    The lift looks great, however I would be concerned with the impact wind would have on the Spyder windshield.

    Engine light

    Did the dealer check the purge valve or just reset the codes. I had a check engine light come on and off again while on a long trip. Found to be a faulty intermittent purge valve. Replaced and good to go again. The action on the fault code does say to check the valve. Also there is a video out...

    Immobolize a Spyder?

    There was a Spyder Ryder who rode her STL downtown Toronto for work. She would put a wheel lock on her bike for security. Check out the following link. https://www.trimaxlocks.com/shop/wheel-locks/twl100/ It may be overkill but, I understand how dead serious you are.

    998cc bent frame

    Perhaps a call directly to BRP Cares is in order. They should be able to assist in sourcing as the bike is barely 5 years old.

    Lost keys to 2016 RSS

    A good locksmith will also have replacement transponder keys that can be programmed to your bike, at a fraction of the BRP cost. My locksmith replaced my wife's key that broke off in her bike ignition. In the same week he had also replaced another Spyder riders full set of Spyder keys that were...

    The Dreaded P0174 Trouble Code

    I picked up a check engine light and the P0174 code. Dealer replaced a faulty purge valve on warranty and everything has been fine since. There is a youtube video (in French) out there on the purge valve replacement.

    Ryker Ykester!!!

    I can’t see my wife traveling several thousand miles on a trip with a Ryker holding all her gear. It is a different product and niche. So there is no need to compare the GS, ST or STL to the Ryker. A Spyder is a Spyder. A Ryker is a Ryker period!
