What did I get myself into lol.
I was going over some videos showing how to changed the oil, air filter, spark plugs and pulling the battery on our Spyder RT. OMG I'll never complain about working on my bike ever again.sigpicMrBill Been a GSR member on and off since April 2002

Just learned if you want the dealer software (called BUDS) for one's laptop to reset and work on a Spyder is very costly...like $1000 costly, then you have to get the license to use it. Seems from the Spyder forum most don't bother with it or just take it to the dealer for them to reset stuff. Frigging dealer has to buy it as well. BRP doesn't supply it to their dealers.sigpicMrBill Been a GSR member on and off since April 2002
