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.

Not sure you can, I do know you can't bluetooth from an android tablet...
Get a cheap android MP3 player with bluetooth and WiFi. You will need WiFi down load an MP3 player app. Move your music from the flash drive to the android player. Down load the MP3 app. Connect the android player to the bike. You can put the MP3 player in a shirt or jacket pocket or in the glove box. That is what I do. Leave the MP3 player on when you stop for breaks. Should you forget to turn it off at the end of the riding day, don't worry. I have done that, and I found that the battery in the thing lasts for days.

Direct-connect USB thumb drives are not supported for direct music playback on the media system of a 2023 Can-Am Spyder. The USB port on the bike is generally used for charging or device power rather than acting as a music host reader.
Alternative Ways to Play Music
• Bluetooth Streaming: Pair your smartphone or mobile device via Bluetooth directly to the Spyder's display/media system or to your helmet's headset (such as a Cardo or Sena unit).
• Music Apps: Play music from apps on your connected phone (such as local storage apps, Spotify, or SiriusXM) and control playback using the touchscreen or handlebar controls.
• Auxiliary/Phone Connection: Play files straight from your phone or an external audio player synced through the active Bluetooth or audio link rather than a thumb drive.

Not directly but there are various Bluetooth transmitters with headphone plugs, memory card & other inputs. Unfortunately there can also be some conflict in what devices are connected & take priority, a specific order of connection is required. Sorry, I'm only aware of issue, I do not have instructions...
