• 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.

    Looking for info/advice from those who have RT Replacement Shocks...

    I have the Elka Stage 2's in all 3 positions and love them! If you go with other shocks most vendors will want a lot of info about weight and type/skills of riding. That said, they will get you into the ballpark of ride settings. Don't be afraid to tweak their default settings until you get them...

    What are these 'extra wires' hanging out the back of my Spyder?? Your Thoughts?

    Those are Positaps on the ends of the wires. They are absolutely NOT part of any original wiring or Can Am accessory wiring. Some previous owner must have had some accessory installed, most likely lighting. judging by their location, check to see if your right side saddlebag has the original...

    1330cc Anyone else had this 'gear change fail' or 'hesitation/vapour lock' problem? Ideas?

    Have you checked the oil level?

    2016 Spyder RT-S has a misfire and dumping gas. No codes, uses gas very quickly.

    If you ran it with the frunk removed, then you also must have had the connector removed for the air temp sensor. Doesn't make computer happy.

    Anyone got a valid reason for the High Torque settings on the brake rotor?

    I don't have a problem reusing those bolts as long as the threads are not damaged and you clean out all the old thread locking compound. Also not a bad idea to run a tap through the holes to clean the mating threads out also.

    How to disable DESS using BUDS? Any Step-by-Step Procedures?

    I (and a few others I know of) will normally charge $50 to do a BUDS/BUDS2 scan, which "could" include disabling DESS.

    What sized screw for the License plate?

    Can't remember the screw size exactly, but they self-tap into the plastic. They don't go all the way through.

    Refusal to look at my 2015 RT-S by a Can Am Dealer!

    What I don't understand is why doesn't BRP allow those of us who do service and repair work on the side (on all model years) to become "authorized" service providers? It's not like I'm taking money away from a dealer if I choose to repair an older model that they won't support any longer. And...

    Found Engine Serial # on 2013 ST, but CHP does not agree! Any advice?

    Good job! If that's not good enough for them, you could get someone with BUDS to print out a report for you. It shows engine ID also. See below. Image edited to protect my customer's VIN!!

    Got a 'new' Strange Noise at Low Speed - any thoughts on what to look for?

    Could be a wild guess here, but do you have a belt idler installed? I've seen a few of the factory installed idlers out of alignment. They can be far enough out for the side of the idler arm to rub on the belt. This "could" cause the moaning sound you describe as the belt would be rubbed like a...

    Mystery Tools/parts found in new to me 2020 RTL - any ideas?

    The plug cover is for the wiring disconnect when the rear topcase is removed.

    When, if ever, was a belt dampener factory-installed on the F3's?

    I added a bunch of accessories to a friends' new 2023 F3L Special Series today. No factory idler installed.

    What does check DPS mean ?

    Like Ron said above, the DPS is extremely power hungry. Per the shop manual peak current draw can be up to 60 amps.

    Has anybody heard any rumors on the 2025 Spyder Models? New line-up released!

    I'd like to see the British Racing Green that they put on certain 23 Seadoos. Oh, and Android Auto (that works)

    Installed SpyderExtras Billet Aluminum Handlebar Riser Kit - not comfortable??

    Something else to consider is that all of the available optional handlebars for the F3 will fit on your 24 RT. For my needs, the F3 Attitude bars brought them back just enough, but the biggest comfort increase is the much different wrist angle with these bars. This is without any riser...
