For the 2024 RTL (I am sure all 2024 models with the heated grips) You can actually adjust the heat of the grips from handle bar cluster (including turning them off/on). However, there are no settings for the heated seats, you still need to use the buttons by the key.

I’m curious if you’ll eventually get a trailer for your spyder

Random bits... perchance the accessory is a Garmin Zumo XT? My 23 F3T mirrors suck. They are too low and my elbows block the view. You have to move your head and take your eyes off the road to see. I am experimenting with a set of Big Eye handlebar mounted mirrors. I just sold my R1200GS. Best bike I've ever owned. Age and balance necessitated switching to a Spyder full time. I think having important 'riding' functions (heated grips, etc.) controlled by options on a screen is a GIGANTIC safety hazard. That is why I will never own a Tesla. Just my 2¢. Ride on, keep your eyes on the road and stay safe!

Looking forward to your Adirondack videos! Cheers Chris!

My beef with the mirrors is that they shook all the time! I would go to look and the image was constantly blurred by the shaking. So, I bought the mirror locks from Lamonster garage, problem solved.

I suggest you consider "Rok straps" to secure rear seat luggage etc.

The heat rear hand grip you would need to be careful with tie down hooks as you may damage the element inside the rubber case?

Amazing waterfalls and scenery!

What you need is a rear-facing camera and display... Also, there are after-market parabolic mirrors you can get for under $100.

Great video today. Good luck on your trip.You're gonna love the Adirondack s I live in saratoga 15 mins from Lake George, I been all through the white mountains and up mount Washington numerous times. Good luck and enjoy that trip.

I use ECO mode on backroads and stop and go traffic, once I’m on the highway I turn it off.

My new 2023 RT has been in the shop over three weeks now, 5300 miles. Making noise dealer found spicy metal oil. Missing several group trips and prime riding while they wait for warranty to decide what to do.

Is the trunk rack OEM? On your comment on the radiator intake screens, I did the same thing on my 2023 RT. They were a bit pricy for stainless steal but I would rather have something beefier forward than depend on than the cheap OEM ones. One good rock then you are dead on the road.

I live in Somerset, MA. I just got a F3s if you want to meet up Id be interested in joining your adventures. NH sounds awesome!

Can am needs central locking for the luggage

Hi!I have Spyder ST limited 2015 an got DESS Error and no real dealer around, nobody can’t fix it, have no idea what to do. I love this bike just a small problem can’t drive

I do agree with the mirror complaints, I just bought some stick on wide angle mirrors and will give them a try. We climbed Mt Washington with our side by side and will be doing it with our Spyder in the fall.

Let me know when you are headed to New Hampshire and perhaps we can meet up.

These aren't DCT? Dangit. Saw one of these in the showroom, started to get interested. I would not like that at all. Ill wait til they catch up

2023 Spyder RT brand new at my dealership marked down to 20k flat. Seems like good deal ya? I’m new to the spiders. I grew up on snowmobiles and quads. Gotta bad left knee so I’m really thinking hard about this!!!?!?!!

Why anti-plugging into the BRP cord in the glove box?

My dealership has a 2023 Spyder RT, brand new marked down to 20k flat (US dollars) Seems like good deal ya? They have a service shop and it all is about 6 miles from my house. Approx 95% good reviews online for their service.

Hi Chris, kinda nit pickey but everyone has their own ideas. Looking forward to the next adventure. A trip we would love to make someday. 😜

Great job Chris...make as many videos as you wish...😊😊😊

This is just me i got some window screen cut it to the shape of the radiator grills used small magnets to hold them in place great for bugs easily removed and cleaned

The wide view is better. Even though i like the view from a chin mounted camera, I don't like the way it looks on a helmet. I use the Sena 10C Pro. Maybe not the best camera but does the job. Keep up the good work.

Personally, I preferred the wide view opposed to super view. That House towards the end of the video looked just like Norman Bates Mothers and I would not want to be around there at night time! Chris, big thanks for the ride out, most enjoyable.

Thank you for anothet post Chris. You should not listen to those who say you post to often. What you can do is a strategy of when your posting. If ita going to be 3 times a week, make it rarher happen at 4pm on Mondays and Thursday, 10am on Saturday's, rarher then randomly. Algorithm picks up on that. I really like the superview as it make things look as if we see it through your eyes, however as some people say, it distorts the horizon, maybe just a setting. I use the cameras if Insta360, so cant really say anything about the gp cameras. What I could say is, that the wide is good, and that you can change it for variation. Food for thought. Mr Beast is one of the biggest youtube stars, he changes camera angle on average once every 0.8 seconds.

Wide over Super for sure.

Could you do a video showing in detail what you travel with in each compartment as well as what type of bag you us for the back seat that can be secured and still allow you to lift the seat in order to refuel. Thank you!

I like the wide view the best. Small town New York was an interesting ride. Thanks

I'll go with wide view as better than super view. Superview gave me a little bit of a fish-eye lens effect with things slightly distorted. And though I'm not sure it is the right words, slightly disorienting when you are turning you head to look around. Wide view seems more natural.

Which is more user friendly garmin or Zumo.

The wide view was good the superview was much better I just got my 23 Spyder about 2 weeks ago and I got 500 miles on it already I picked it up with only half a mile on it

The wide view was great what does overview was really nice much better I want to hear better videos as far as camera work

This Nana finally got her Spyder Rt 2024. I love it. I've had it for a week now. I've never owned a motor bike of any kind and at 72 I'm living my best life. My husband rides a 23 Road King , however he has been riding on the back of my spyder instead of me riding behind him lol. He is very impressed with the spyders performance and also my skill at handling it. (Thanks to the multiple videos I ve watched from you and Coach Bob3 and Fearless Faith) . I did a lot of research and it has paid off. Thanks again for all that you do to help us newbies. God Bless and safe travels.

The throttle assist, I had one on my honda bike and kept in when I traded for the Spyder. It seems to me that the throttle turn is so much greater on the spyder than a bike that it was more in the way than helpful. Seems you have to turn the throttle on a can am a lot further to accelerate than on most bikes.

Wide view was good. Like that you say what town you’re in. Always checking them out on the map as possible adventures. For the complainers that think you post too many videos they can always hit the “not interested” option and move on.

I don't understand the complaints about how many videos you produce. This is your channel. Please do as you want. Thank you for producing Spyder touring content.

A slice of Americana at a uniquely Canadian place (Timmy's as it is affectionately called here) on July 4th; you can't make this up! That was special. Wide is a lot easier to watch. Happy 4th Chris!

You neglected to mention on the audio test, that the volume automatically increases as you accelerate from a stop and automatically decreases as you slow to a stop.

I think wide view is best. Super view makes things smaller and you get less detail. Not sure what the audio test proves except louder is louder. Let’s go wide.

Hey Chris, I use the GoPro also and I agree. There is a learning curve. I had fits with the audio. I used Bluetooth and I used lavalier mike and I didn't like either. Bought the MediaMod and had the best luck with the rear mike setting. Your audio is very good. How are you doing it? The horse and buggy was great. Thanks for you comments on my video earlier. JB

I could see more of your dash with super view. As for the scenery, both views get the job done, in my opinion. Thanks for sharing. Godspeed

Chris, I think I preferred the wide view. The super view provided a wider field of view, but at the expense of horizon distortion. That wide view combined with the distortion was a little disconcerting to watch as you panned from side to side in that little town. BTW, I saw that you you were on US 219. I was on that in PA just a few weeks ago. I only headed as far north as US 6, but I think it goes to Bradford. Anyway, I enjoyed the video. Thanks for taking us along on the ride.

Wide was definitely easier to watch.

You’re doing the vlog so now you’re playing with the settings you should select the view type. I use mostly Insta360 cameras because you can get multiple views and 360 coverage. More options then a Go Pro. Go as wide as you prefer as long as stabilizing is in effect and it’s dewarped (insta360 term) so the shot still looks square and not “tilted”. Wide view looks more natural

Have a great ride. Happy 4th of July & Happy Birthday. I am hoping to go for a ride on Sunday. These Leukemia treatments are rough. They make me tired and feel weak. Stay safe. Post as much as you want. I enjoy going for the ride.✌️✌️

Super

Chris wide view was better. The super view unnaturally stretched the image from side to side. I could tell by the POV of your spider it looked totally stretched out.
