• 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.

    changing out Senna SMh10 speakers

    We use the SPH 10H units that are designed to mount on a half helmet and the units mount into the triangle created by the straps on each side. I had a local shoe repair place cut a bit of the strap away and then stitched the control into place so that the speakers are quite close to my ears...

    Helmet and comms device

    SENA set up We use the SENA headphone set up. The SENA SPH10 is used for half helmets. My wife wears a Scorpion and I use a Fulmer. The SENA units attach by use of a steel strap that slides between the interior lining and the shell of the helmet and the speaker units fit into the area where the...

    Unable to read oil dip stick

    Because of the engine design there will be no reading on the dipstick with the engine cold. The sump must move the oil around to give any reading on the stick and that can only be done hot.

    Summertime dress

    L.L. Bean natural fit jeans ordered about a half inch longer so they are more comfortable on the Spyder. Usually just a tee shirt (with some neat motorcycle destination's name on it) over which we wear lightweight shirts made by Columbia sportswear. We find these at Bass Pro Shops in the fishing...

    Doing Burnouts

    I performed a rather smoky burnout on my 2012 RT this morning while going out of the drive through lane at the bank. I had made my deposit, waved goodbye to the teller and twisted my throttle. Some cars before me had obviously leaked some anti freeze at the window and once my rear tire hit that...

    Dealer Assembly?

    Dealer has an RT on the floor with a MSRP of $31,230. He has discounted it down to $27,400. Heck of a deal but there are some add ons to cover dealer costs..... Shipping.... $850 Assembly......... 822 Shop supplies.... 108 Rest room supplies... 106...

    Safety concerning brakes

    But sometimes and inch or less is all that is needed and that last inch of pedal travel is pretty important. The rubber pad on my pedal overlapped the mount and hit the floorboard about a half inch and the mounting bolts also hit the boards. When I added the spacer I made certain the new...

    Tire pressure

    The sticker under the lid of the trailer says 35 psi. I run our trailers at 40-42 psi.... no reason for this other than my trailer dealer told me 50 psi and this is a compromise.

    Safety concerning brakes

    When I added the floorboards to my 2012 RT, I was concerned about pedal travel as it looked like a panic stop would put the pedal into the board very easily. I called the vendor to ask about it and a few other things that I didn't like about the boards and was very put off by the response. The...

    Honda Valkyrie owners

    I think I loved my Valkyrie a bit more than I love my Spyder but it is close. If I still had it I probably wouldn't ride it much.... but it would be nice to look at it from time to time.

    About pulling the plug or what?

    Electrical. Replace battery or make absolutely certain it passes all tests, not just a check to see if it throws more than 12 volts.

    front fender shaking

    I'd say either the bolts are loose or you have a warped brake disc.

    CanAm trailer seal

    That looks to be just the seal and not the part it is attached to. Anyone know if the factory part is a complete assembly? I'd like to just snap it in place and not have to glue anything. The plastic piece snaps on the trailer lip and the neoprene is attached to it. I cut the neoprene away...

    New Owner and observations

    A few additional thoughts..... The addition of the SpyderPops blocker combined with floorboards that direct heat down to the pavement eliminated any 'hot foot' problem on my 2012. See how the board flips up in front, fitting into the lower vent so that all the heat goes away from the rider...

    CanAm trailer seal

    As I was cleaning up the Spyders and trailers after our recent trip I noticed that the neoprene seal on my wife's RT 622 trailer had come loose. This is a trailer we bought in 2010 to match her first RT. Since then it has been repainted and the seal was applied by the dealer back in 2011 as a...

    You're getting in pretty deep, now boy. Next you'll be suggesting she trade the Spyder for a crotch rocket.:yes:

    Harley guys seem to like CanAm'ers

    On our recent trip we ran into a number of Harley riders at rest stops, fueling stations and other places. We always found them to be friendly and this time round a lot more talkative. Two guys asked a lot of intelligent questions about my machine and another said he would seriously consider...
