• 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.

    Left Side Saddlebag Stuck closed - how to access the cable to replace them?

    I know this is an old thread, but thank you for this info. No need to tear apart the bodywork. Very simple and it worked.

    How do I put my RT Ltd into Neutral and shut off parking brake alarm?

    As others have said, shut it off, then just turn the key to on without actually starting the machine. now turn the parking brake off and roll to where you want it. Set the parking brake and turn key off again.

    Think of changing from Freewheeler - is the Spyder any easier &/or safer?

    I have very limited experience with a new RTL, but I can tell you that riding one is very much like riding a 4-wheeler atv as opposed to a motorcycle.

    Screen lit up with Ign, then went blank with start - HELP PLEASE?!

    So, just to be clear, a Battery Tender is a "proper" charger/maintainer as opposed to one that doesn't stop charging when the battery is fully charged?

    Well, that didn't take long... First fault on my new 2023 RTL! Air Suspension Fault.

    Update- I took it back to the dealer and they took care of the problem. I nicely let them know that this doesn't inspire much confidence in their service department. My old powersports dealer retired about 18 months ago and the local H-D dealer bought his franchises. I am trying to establish a...

    Anyone installed the Afterburner tail-light mod?

    I just ordered a set of the Afterburners (Gen2). They are currently on sale at a well-known vendor for $239.

    What Kind of Rider are you?

    Just bought the Spyder but I rode motorcycles for years up to about 2006. Anyway, I try to avoid wet weather just because it is so miserable, and it gets the bike filthy. I love riding at night, but I have to be on the lookout for deer. As far as the cold, I dress warm but once the sand/salt...

    Electric Spyder next?

    One of the things that no EV manufacturer tells you about EVs is that when the temperature drops, the range drops even more. With temps at 20 degrees F and below, they can lose 40% or more of their "claimed" range. What good is that for a snowmobile? It is not good for cars either if you live in...

    Loudest horns ever on a spyder. Yup, I did it again!

    I had a set of the Hornblasters on a truck. They are great quality kits.

    On the way to the forum this morning....

    LOL I had to warm up the truck and brush snow & ice off it before I could head out this morning.

    Well, that didn't take long... First fault on my new 2023 RTL! Air Suspension Fault.

    I'm pretty sure it's not the angle.

    Well, that didn't take long... First fault on my new 2023 RTL! Air Suspension Fault.

    Thank you for this info. I took a quick pic. Does this look correct?

    Well, that didn't take long... First fault on my new 2023 RTL! Air Suspension Fault.

    A hearty thanks to all that have responded. Thanks for the pic Snowbelt Spyder. I had located that arm thanks to Peter, and pics always help. I think I found the bolt size in another thread (M6 x 20). I am happy to hear that in all likelihood, there is no damage to the compressor or elsewhere! I...

    Well, that didn't take long... First fault on my new 2023 RTL! Air Suspension Fault.

    I picked the Spyder up yesterday and trailered it home due to cold weather. I was anticipating watching it sit in the garage over the winter months before getting a chance to ride it. Today, the outside temp reached a balmy 40 degrees. I couldn't take it anymore, so I bundled up and went for a...

    BRP has released on-line the 2024 CAN AM SPYDER RT Owners Manual

    I feel your pain. I too live in NY state (Madison Co). I just purchased a 2023 and now I get to drool on it for the next few months due to the weather. It gives me time to mod...

    Wow The Black Friday Deals are On

    Just curious. Which set of lights did you get? I have been looking at them and I'm trying to decide which ones. The install vids make it look so easy.... Meanwhile, I have ordered a full cover, and I also needed a riding jacket and helmet, so I took care of those too. I think a battery tender is...

    Hey Ya'll We Got A New Member! Lets welcome GrayRyder to SL

    Hello Spyderlovers. I just purchased a '23 RTL which is due to be picked up on 11/25. Since I live in NY state, I expect to be staring at it for most of the next 5 months. This will be my first Spyder but I have owned other powersports vehicles in the past. I am looking forward to Spring '24 and...
