• 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.

I am looking to get a key holder for my Spyder key, as the leather one I have now seems to interfere with unlatching the frunk... Need input on what and where to get something....thanks in advance everyone!!!
 
I think the best key holder is the OEM key scabbard that comes with all Spyder keys. The Scabbard can either be mounted onto a key ring or simply be used to protect the key while out of the ignition and in a coat/pant packet. In my opinion, the Spyder ignition area is not a good location for a big key ring with a lot sorts of keys, gadgets, and toys. I think that it would also unnecessarily cause scratches to the panels and dash area.
 
Try this....

Pierre over at Can Am spyder Accessories / spyder TV has just come out with some nice ones with choice of color and a lanyard. Has gold, silver, blue, red. black. They are nicely made with quality materials...:thumbup:
 
Sorry I didn't see this thread sooner:shocked: but FYI the one works best for me is Keyport :firstplace:IMG_4712.jpg. IMG_0854.jpg Holds what I need for everyday use & all is easily operated single handily:thumbup:. https://www.mykeyport.com/
Additional info: 2013 & prior :ani29:chips can be cloned & Keyport offers the chip & placement needed
:spyder2:2014 & later require other chip functions that they know & you will need to talk with them for better description & requirements
 
key ring

The best I've found costs almost nothing.
put a small regular key ring and made a paracord laynard so I can feel it in my pocket. Works fine, nothing to scratch the paint.

I agree. I keep mine on a key ring by itself and keep it in my pocket.

:agree: I used this method for my last two bikes.

But I am going to try Pierre's and Dave's holders on the new bike, and see which one works the best!

I'm old school, and continue to use Lamont's IPS. I'm not sure he sells them anymore. I leave it right in the ignition; most people don't know what it is.
