• 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.

    It's finally really mine.

    Well this baby is ready to be ridden! I installed the General Altimax RT45 215/60R15 on the rear today. Sadly, there is quite a bit of rain in the forecast for the next week or so. Second picture is how I secure the front tires while jacking up the rear. Because I am on gravel here in...

    Welcome, Wildhorse

    I see why you have not joined the forum earlier, as you have been busy riding your Spyder. I also see a military ribbon decal above the headlights for a group I also belong to, I trying to enjoy life as much as I can before my AO issues stop me. Those issues are why I have a Spyder and not a...

    Has anyone removed their Seat locking post?

    Bicycle brake cables, both inner and outer parts cut to length to reach the wheel wells.

    Canyon Carving on a Canyon

    It would be interesting to know how sales are going based on the areas (AKA terrain) of the country. For example, Washington has many miles of logging roads, however, most are gated now a days or have signs limiting access. Places like Walker Valley Off Road Park has lot of smooth roads in...

    Has anyone removed their Seat locking post?

    . I have done that to all three of my 2018 Spyder RTL's. I would add that I use the frunk one quite often. I walk up to the Spyder and find it is easier to pull the backup release than it is getting my key out of my pocket.

    Tires rated worst and best. Two tires commonly used on Spyder's are noted

    Slate, the name of the new inexpensive EV pickup, worked with Kenda to get a tire for the 25K (US) truck. So Slate entered the field with a very cheap truck and needed bargain priced tires to keep the price down and turned to Kenda! And bragged about it in the video I watched.

    NEW oil leak 2016 RT - anyone recognize it/know what it is from?

    If only we could slide a hose on, put the other end in a catch pan, then open a valve! In the mean time I stuff paper towels around the hole in the panels to "try" to capture the wayward oil draining out.

    Just sold my Harley and have follow up questions - what spec RT; Base, Ltd, Sea to Sky? Used, or new?

    Sorry to hear that, there is an old adage, a sale is not complete until the money is in your bank account and the bank says the new balance is available to you.

    Just sold my Harley and have follow up questions - what spec RT; Base, Ltd, Sea to Sky? Used, or new?

    Look at the RTL listed here for sale in Redding Ca. It would be worth the road trip to go get it. It has all the extra a person would want at a great price. https://www.spyderlovers.com/threads/2023-can-am-spyder-rt-limited-in-northern-ca.166186/

    My new Diamond J Customs front shocks install!

    Sometimes being a trail blazer has pitfalls! I find that working with an establish product/vendor that has a track record on what "you" want to do is much cheaper in the long run.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I use https://www.resizepixel.com/ to down size pictures to 500xXXX. You then click Attach File in the block with the paper clip. You will get a picture with it's name and the work Insert... and a trash can on it. Click insert, then Thumbnail. The picture will insert into your post and block...

    Fuel Gauge Quit, still shows Empty after filling - any ideas what's happened?

    That is what I was going to suggest. If you unplug both analog gauges, the digital gauges show up automagically on the display. That will tell you if it is the sender or the gauge it's self. Also magic mirror magnets can cause issues with the analog gauges as noted, which is another reason to...

    NEW oil leak 2016 RT - anyone recognize it/know what it is from?

    Did it have a recent oil change, where oil can get on the top of the underbelly tupperware, and later continue to drip out?

    Will any year Spyder Centramatic Wheel Balancers fit my 2025? Anyone know where I can still get a set?

    I have a set I used on the front of the first 2018 that put Federal tires on. Since moving to Vredestein front tires that I do not balance them, I can not tell the difference with or without the balancers. The best bet is to get away from Kenda tires. Here is a picture of the weights on the...

    Anybody using an aluminum frame enclosed trailer to tow their Spyder?

    Interesting trailer, at 3500 GVWR rating does it come standard with brakes. Picture show brake drums, however I did not see them in the specs or write up. Many states require brake on trailers 3000 or over GVWR.

    Cat delete, is it worth the money

    Over priced is an understatement. The low mile 2014 RT my in-law bought had the Akrapovic muffler, HD sway bar, magic mirrors, side case soft bags, and a full cover all for $11.2K.

    Cat delete, is it worth the money

    What surprises me is companies making to delete pipes are so open about it, as that is who the EPA goes after first. Insiders at that Bay Area company told me the EPA is going to be working their way down the food chain. All they would have to do regarding deletes for motorcycles is fine one of...
