Can-Am Spyder and Ryker

Buying a new Can-Am Spyder is always an exciting time for any consumer. Finding your Can-Am Spyder for sale Alberta is the easy part - ongoing maintenance is vital to care for your machine properly. The anticipation of trying something new is thrilling. We would like to give you some initial tips when you first take your new vehicle out of the dealership and those longer-term maintenance tasks you should be doing regularly.

Tires

The tires on your Can-Am Spyder or Ryker are a critical component of your vehicle and are the only contact point between you and the road. They must always be in top condition, so they should be inspected regularly and replaced when necessary.

Check your tire pressure every week or two. Use an accurate tire pressure gauge and adjust as needed. Underinflated tires reduce fuel economy and increase wear on your tires, brakes, and suspension components. Correctly inflated tires increase fuel efficiency by reducing rolling resistance and improve handling by increasing traction between the road surface and the contact patch of each tire. Overinflated tires also increase rolling resistance, which reduces fuel efficiency by increasing engine load during acceleration or deceleration when traveling at highway speeds.

Fluids

Your Spyder and Ryker use several different fluids that must be changed regularly. These include engine oil, transmission fluid, coolant, and brake fluid. You can find out how often these fluids should be changed by reading the owner's manual or contacting Basecamp Motorsports for further information.

Controls

It's important to ensure that your controls are working properly before taking your Spyder or Ryker out on the road! Ensure all buttons and switches work correctly and don't require excessive pressure to operate properly. If any buttons or switches seem stuck or stiff, bring your vehicle in for service as soon as possible so we can inspect them further.

Lights and Electronics

Inspect your vehicle's lights for cracks or chips in lenses or reflectors; replace if necessary. Ensure the proper performance of the lighting systems. Always check your battery voltage periodically by using an amp meter: you don’t want to be out on the road and your battery dies.
