• 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.

    Corbin smuggler trunk with BRP bags question

    Thanks for all the info. vtrider - It does look good. If they weren't such a ripoff for shipping I might consider it even though I would have to paint it myself but $266 to ship it to Montreal is crazy. A friend is shipping a Tacoma pickup from Nanaimo BC (west coast) to Montreal for $1500. I...

    Corbin smuggler trunk with BRP bags question

    Feel the same way. If I put the smuggler on I know I would meet Megan Fox with her car broken down. I have a couple of small bags or I will get the BRP one that fits on the rack.

    Corbin smuggler trunk with BRP bags question

    Thanks for the info. Buddy of mine has sort of convinced me not to get it. I sometimes take camera gear (tripod, hiking staff etc) and tie it on the back seat. He figure I should look for a small case or even a bag as I do have the BRP sport rack on it. Still get another month or 2 of winter so...

    Corbin smuggler trunk with BRP bags question

    I spoke to them on friday but didn't get very far. First they told me they couldn't colour match it (I have the Orange/black 2011 rss) so I would have to have it painted myself. Then I was told it would cost $266 for freight (Perhaps they don't know that Montreal is in Canada, maybe they thought...

    Corbin smuggler trunk with BRP bags question

    I have searched trying to find an answer to this. I have the corbin saddle and the BRP Givi hard bags installed. I would like to get the Corbin smuggler trunk but have read that it might not fit because of the rear lights relocation. Some have said there is a note on the corbin site saying this...

    GPS Zumo 660

    Looks about the same as the mount on my 2011 RSS. Mine was done at the dealer as part of my purchase agreement. The wires were run down the back side of the handle bars and are hidden and out of the way. My bike is stored a t a friends for the winter so can' take any pics. The 660 works great.

    Anyone going to Spyderfest Magog?

    Actually if you stay away from the bridges around rush hour you will be all right.

    I have run out of patience with BRP.

    It really sounds like you need to find a better dealer. In many places there is no special category for 3 wheelers and so they get classified as motorcycles. Most moorcyle tires only last about 5000 miles as they are built very differently than car tires. Many owners switch to car tires which...

    Cleaning while traveling

    I have the 2011 rss in the satin copper and black. When I traveled with my bikes I always used Honda or Harly spray cleaner (lemon pledge I think) but not sure how this stuff would work on the satin finish paint. Any suggestions.

    Evaluations: Evoluzione Swaybar

    I had mine put on my 2011 RSS by my dealer. I was going in or my 600 mile service so I hd them put it on and tighten up the shocks. The difference is significant and highly recommended. Even the mechanic who test drove it said the difference was amazing. Next week the Elke shocks go on.

    Kuryakyn grip removal?

    If you have a high pressure air hose you can usually blow them off. If you can get the nozzle in between the inside grip end and the switch housing a couple of lasts of ir will usually remove them. I hav seen this done many times at the local shop. I glued mine on and by mistake stopped about a...

    Traffic, temperature and the spyder

    Switching to full synthetic oil helps and there is a radiator additive that also helps. I can't remember it's name but I can get the name on Thursday when I am at the dealer. I spent 45 minutes crawling uphill in a bad traffic jam with temps in the mid to upper 80s and was at 5-6 bars the whole...

    seats.

    Couple of things I really like about the Corbin are the way the passenger section pops off by just turning a key (only important if your getting the trunk), the removable adjustable back rest and off course the trick color matched spider web stitching.

    seats.

    I just recently bought a 2011 RS S and found the stock seat to be one of the better stock seats of any bike I have owned. I ordered the Corbin seat as soon as I got the spyder and just put it on. Did a 500km ride yesterday and the difference was significant.
