• 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.

    Got a cool jacket from a ski company !!

    I have a few Spyder brand shirts and a sweater. I believe the Spyder clothes brand pre-exists the Can-Am by many years. My wife and I were wondering if they ever had a copyright or trademark infringement situation with Can-Am. But then I figured out why the Spyder clothes brand wouldn't mind...

    Would you buy a Chinese motorycle?

    I agree with the above post. There doesn't seem to be a Chinese brand that I can think of that has a long standing presence with quality product and service and parts support after the sale. I would only buy if the company has been around with a good reputation for at least 10 years.

    Is it OK to put new battery on tender all winter that has never been used?

    Personally I would put it on the tender until it says it's charged, then take it off the tender for the balance of the winter. Put it back on the tender a few days before you expect to use it. Between 4 snowmobiles and my Spyder it seems like the batteries that had been left on the tenders the...

    The most dangerous place on earth for me.

    Pete, I hope your recovery continues to go well. I broke my ankle slipping on ice about 4 years ago. Luckily I didn't need any surgery and I was pretty much back in regular activities in 4 weeks time but had to be careful and gentle. Now I'm much more afraid of walking on ice than I ever used...

    Is there any real data regarding the safety of the Spyder vs traditional motorcycles

    Where can I get #5 brake and shifter rods? BRP Not in Stock!

    I wouldn't trust the BRP site for inventory. If you can't find them on ebay call a dealer and have them order the parts.

    Exploring Options To Become Certified to work on Spyders

    Your wife sounds just like my wife. I had a few opportunities in my life to start my own business or partner with someone, but she is so risk averse that I just couldn't do it. Well we did okay without the businesses and I'm now enjoying retirement at 63 yrs old. In the end I'm glad I don't...

    1330 SE6 Clutch engagement at idle problem

    I knew someone would comment about the parts laid on the floor. They are a very busy shop and squeezed me in. But they know what they're doing and their shop is not so disorganized as it looks in the picture. The problem was a loose clutch hub nut. They think the factory forgot to loctite...
