• 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.

Laser Alignment Bulletin

Honestly, for the DIY person, the BRP info list specs for toe in regards to ride height.

That info along with this calculator can be used if you have the desire to align at home. Overall though, getting it done by those that have the tools and are familiar with the settings may be easier for most people.

The interesting part is that on newer vehicles, BRP is concerned about the rider weight in how it effects toe in or more correctly, bump steer.

To use this calculator for a three wheeled vehicle, simply combine the left and right rear wheels into one, and take the dimension shown. As with all Spyder alignments, the rear wheel must be positioned first to have the belt track properly.

Not the bulletin requested (can't imagine it's that much different) but after a bit of looking my local service manager stumbled on "Service Bulletin 2014-6 Roadster Alignment Specifications" which states in part "True Laser Track is a recommended supplier of laser alignment kits..." The file size exceeds the limit imposed for posting it here but I have deposited it in a folder on "Box" which you can retrieve here.


:clap::clap::thumbup::clap::thumbup: Thank you that answers my post. Good Stuff..

Good Info !!! :thumbup::clap:
 
The problem is, the company hasn't yet completely penetrated the dealer market, which makes it hard for many of us to get laser alignment without traveling hundreds of miles. In my case, the nearest dealer is in Las Vegas which is about 350 miles from me. I talked to Spyder Comfort and they said that Ride Now has ordered them for their stores here in the Phoenix area. Hopefully, they will be up and running sometime in mid July. I don't have any reason to believe my brand new Spyder is out of alignment, but based on what I've read here, it would be worth $125 for the peace of mind.

Square Away has done two Laser Alignments here at my Hanger in Tucson for everyone. If enough interest is generated I am sure we will be doing another.
