• 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.

That looks way too sterile. I prefer greasy old torn leather seats myself.

Only kidding--looks too nice to ride on.

Hi,
How does the passenger do for room, comfort? How much better do you find comfort level over Oem seat ? Don't you just love all the questions ? Thanks for your time.

Your Ultimate set up looks gorgeous. When I added the Ultimate seat to my Spyder I also went with the white Ostrich trim but used a little less white than you did. I was worried about keeping it clean.

One item that helps the Ultimate seat is a replacement strut. The factory strut doesn't have the strength to hold up the heavier Ultimate seat and even though I wasn't raising it that much due to the gas through the seat feature, it ultimately bent.

I was about to replace it with the $69 Can Am part when I saw this post last month on SL....

On my 2014, & the seat wouldn't stay up. BRP/CheapCycleparts want $60 for the replacement. I found that the one in there was a SUSPA which is cheap and was a replcement. At O'Reily's I found a Stabilus SG359011, 40# for $27. Fit perfect and should last forever. 2 minute job.

I bought the strut from O'Reilly's and it has a 40# capacity versus the factory strut that I think it 20#.

Good addition with the seat.
