Does that mean me too? My next nearest dealer is about 1500 miles away. Washington State or Whitehorse, Yukon Territory.
And to top it off, I am not mechanical. OEM's or another brand of bike for me. :roflblack::roflblack:

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.

Yes. :f_spider:
But only if you insist and continue to insist that the OEM tires are the only tires that are to be put on BRP Can-Am Spyders in order to prevent the destruction of this solar system.
I think we are all dancing around the elephant in the room here. Since we are talking about Spyders shouldn't we all be calling them tyres?

"Since we are talking about Spyders shouldn't we all be calling them tyres?" only if you are British:roflblack:

Yes. :yes: I used to say :congrats: on your new ryde. I got corrected a few times over that. :roflblack::roflblack: Maybe I should bring that back--to see if I can jangle some new chains. :roflblack::roflblack:
Both are references to the "Y" factor of course. Was used heavily in the early advertising. :thumbup:

I of course respect your opinion. Wonder if I am missing something though? I said I was not mechanical. I have a dealer who refuses to install "other" tires. The only Spyder dealer for 1500 miles. I don't have a choice.
The fronts would not be a big deal. Take them off and go to a tire store to have them mounted and balanced on the rims.
Rear tires? For me a problem. I don't want some non-:ani29: mechanic tearing my rear end apart. Just opening the door for electrical or other problems. I will respectfully have to pass.
My out is that I am happy with the mileage I get on the OEM tires. 15K rears and 20K fronts. Other motorcycles are lucky to get 1/2 to 1/3 that. So here in la la land, I guess I am happy in my place.
Varying opinions are good. That is what keeps the site interesting. :yes:

What pressure are you running that tire at? Manual calls for 26-30 for the original Kenda, I have the Yoko now but have yet to get it on the road, waiting on a belt tension gauge to finish up the job.
