• 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.

    CB on spyder

    the mode switch on the left hand cluster will take you to the CB radio screen. You can also breifly hit the push to talk. On that page is the Vox set up. Mess with that till you hear yourself in your helmet. Than fine tune it when going down the road.

    Can-AM Spyder RT Luggage Rack

    Weight limitation on trunk mount rack You don't want a bag much larger than the width of the rack because there is a weight limitation as to how much stress the trunk lid and trunk shell ( the colored part of the trunk lid) can take. The bigger the bag, the heavier one will tend to pack it...

    Can-AM Spyder RT Luggage Rack

    HIGH MOUNT LIGHT CAUTION One cautions regarding racks on RTs. You may not be able to mount a HML if the rack follows the truck lid angle. the BRP trunk rack interfers with the HML. WE USE A Diamond R which is a flat rack. Fits and easy to install and looks great. JMHO. mike s

    thanks for the info. I am very glad you got that kind of Milage from a KUMHO. AND I MAY BUY ONE from Cycle Services of Hyannis. But there is no way my Spyder will go to a Harley shop. Yes I know they work on other brands. I personally brought our 2012 Spyder there for state inspection...
