• 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.

Love it !!!

As expected, I picked up Mr. 2844 yesterday.

The Can-Am Spyder team was having an open road test in Embrun, Ontario and I agreed let the dealership have Mr. 2844 on display until 15:00. It was painful just watching him there - up on a pedestal with ribbons all around him - people gaucking, puddles of drool all around him.

Everything I read on this forum is true :bowdown: . What a wonderful machine! I had about a 65km ride home - using back country roads instead of the highway. Lots of rubber necking from drivers - the sound of the Hindle muffler got some attention too.

Unfortunately, my husband an I got caught in the rain on the way back - I didn`t care, I was on my Spyder! Normally I would not have been as brave in the rain but I truly felt safe on three wheels.

I had to put Mr. 2844 to bed wet and dirty and hence have no pics to share right now. But the day is young and the clouds are breaking up - as soon as he gets a bath, the pics will be coming !:yes:

Have a good one !

:congrats::cheers:

You're more generous than I would be. Letting your new Spyder sit unridden for that long on the day you went to pick it up. ;)
 
:congrats:on the first ride.....I remember mine, almost a life changing experience... a smile from ear to ear :clap::joke::yes:
 
Mr. 2844

:2thumbs: I am so happy for you. I can't wait just to go to a dealer and ride one. :spyder: been on my mind since I first saw it in January. I think it's time. MM

Is this the same "motorcyclemamma" who set the world record for miles in a single year on a Goldwing? Something like 127,000 miles in 12 months?
