• 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.

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

    Chiisai I met my husband at a doctors office where I was the clinical nurse (dermatology). He was retired Air Force working in Civil Service. He has psoriasis. I got to give him an injection of cortisone every 6 weeks, so I had already seen his bare backside. He asked me out, I said only on...

    Oh that dreaded spark plug failure

    2016 RTL, I still have the original plugs at 84,000 and it is running like a top. I have heard of some of them going past 120,000. Luck of the draw? or how they are ridden? I am dreading when I have to have mine changed.

    2016 RTL changing out headlights to LED

    Apparently this forum is not the usual helpful place it used to be. First I asked if there was a kit needed to change from OEM headlights to LED headlights and I get a link to headlights and fog lights. Then the mod (temp maybe??) changes my post blue text to black without my knowledge with a...

    2016 RTL changing out headlights to LED

    Thanks P.W., if I was going to add foglights that is the kit I would get. But I don't want the fog lights, just the LED headlights. My question is, do I need a kit to change out the OEM headlights to LED headlights?

    Link to a usb port for switch plate

    I have a 2016 RTL that I had a dual usb port added to the blank slot on the switch plate. Water got into the usb port and corroded it. I am replacing it and have my Spyder torn apart to install a new usb port but I now can't find the location of a inexpensive port. Some time ago I found a lot...

    2020 RT series are cool, but who's keeping their old Spyder

    I know my opinion may offend some, but it is, after all, my opinion. I have a 2016 RTL. I fell in love with it the first time I laid eyes on it. I love the lines of the body and I loved the fact that I could actually use the running boards to get on the bike without splitting my inseam of my...

    For Blueknight911 - Vredestein for rear tire 2016 RTL

    Sticky as in hugging the pavement going around curves, which would be dry grip. The stickiness is usually a softer rubber, but I am looking forward to testing the Vredestein tire out for not only how sticky it is in the curves, but also the water displacement during and after rain.

    For Blueknight911 - Vredestein for rear tire 2016 RTL

    I really need a tire that handles well in wet conditions. Here in SE Missouri it has rained almost every day for the last 3 months. What is the average mileage on these Vredestein ?

    For Blueknight911 - Vredestein for rear tire 2016 RTL

    Wow, that is very interesting. I really can't wait to try this tire. I have an appointment on the 9th of July to have my S Drive changed out. What psi are you running on that Quatrac?

    For Blueknight911 - Vredestein for rear tire 2016 RTL

    Mike, I'm about ready to try the Vredestein for my back tire. Question-is the Quatrac 5 a sticky tire? Or is it just a good tire? I need a sticky tire and that is why I have been using the Yokohama S Drive. Also, which size should I choose in the Quatrac? How about the Sportrac? And what...

    Was a Spyder a Mistake?

    Bought a 2016 RTL in late Sept. of 2016. The only thing I have had fail is a head light and a back light assembly. I bought the extended warranty because I was not sure I could afford any of the parts after the original warranty was out. The extended warranty took care of my back light...

    Help!! Need clear vinyl can am 622 trailer side rock guard

    I put 32,000 miles on my trailer since I bought it a year ago. When I bought it last year, it had only been on the road for 700 miles and was in pristine condition. Now a year later and at the time of the accident, it was beginning to show lots of chip marks on the body. Those big trucks and...

    Help!! Need clear vinyl can am 622 trailer side rock guard

    The auto body shop that I used for repairs does not do body wraps. I just went to pick up my trailer from his shop. He says that even the spray on protector, such as truck bedliners, looks like crap on a shiny painted body. They do have tints but he said it just looks crappy and takes away...

    Help!! Need clear vinyl can am 622 trailer side rock guard

    I've looked at that stuff and even the black tape stuff for rock proofing pickup truck doors. The issue is that it is not "moldable". The trailer sides are curved and the tape stuff is straight, it will not fit smooth on a curved body. I mentioned that to the auto body man and he said it...

    Help!! Need clear vinyl can am 622 trailer side rock guard

    I have. They sell a vinyl product by the inch. They will not fabricate it for you and they will not install it. The side protected area has curves in it and that is why the auto body man said it would be easier if I could find the replacement decals. I live in a rural town and the closest...

    Help!! Need clear vinyl can am 622 trailer side rock guard

    Mike, you seem to always come up with the right answer to most of my questions. :clap: But I have looked all over ebay for the vinyl protectors and came up with a bunch of wraps for Spyders and the freedom trailer, but no vinyl protectors. If you find them again, would you please post a link...

    Help!! Need clear vinyl can am 622 trailer side rock guard

    Nope. That's what the auto body guy ordered and they sent him a text telling him they did not carry this anymore. This part has been discontinued by the manufacturer or is no longer available.
