• 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.

    How Many Ride an RT Limited After The 5 years Of BRP Warranty Has Expired?

    Yep, me too. It's not the age of the bike, it's the age of the rider, and whichever wears out first. The body, the mind, or the machine. I live out West, and if they find me riding somewhere in the Middle East and I don't know where I'm at, maybe it's time to hang it up.

    Is anyone out there Ryding with a Pacemaker?

    I should probably get one after some of the close calls I've had.

    Pre 2020 RT owners - can you stand up while riding?

    Wise choice Sagebrush. The custom seat makers in my neck of the woods all build their seats with a bigger radius that provides a larger supporting surface, as you mentioned. Why the original manufacturers don't do that is beyond me. Maybe it's because buyers don't give it much thought. They're...

    What has been your experience with Tire Plug Kits?

    I pull trailers a lot, and most of my experiences have been using the rope type. Mushroom types were, for me, more difficult to get a good seal. If you have to use a plug kit on a vehicle, as soon as you can, get into a tire shop and have it repaired properly. Good luck.

    Pre 2020 RT owners - can you stand up while riding?

    Absolutely, however, experiencing a high speed wobble will quite likely end your desire to stand up on the pegs again. Shaking the kinks out of your butt on a long trip is best done by pulling over and walking around a bit. I don't recall ever hearing about a high speed wobble on a 3 wheeler...

    Pre 2020 RT owners - can you stand up while riding?

    Yes, I have, for many years and numerous races. Trials and enduros often require standing on the pegs, but at low speeds to safely negotiate difficult terrain. But not on a street machine at highway speeds. When you stand up on the pegs, you significantly change your center of gravity in a way...

    Pre 2020 RT owners - can you stand up while riding?

    Standing up on 3 wheels or 2 wheels is not a safe thing to do. Not unless, of course, you're a stunt rider, and in that case, do whatever you want. Good luck.

    Just Joined the Family

    If this is your first ride, find an experienced companion who can clue you into what to watch out for, stay safe out there, and don't get run over by some cage driver not watching what they're doing. Good luck.

    2012 RT front speakers bad, need replacement - anyone know the right size, shape, ohm ratings, suppliers, & how to do this?

    Ditch the speakers and go with an intercom. Much better sound, and you aren't disturbing (or offending) others with your music.

    Lame USPS - sending my items on a nice long road trip!

    Yes, and I know the name of that place. Packages and other items have been delivered there for years, never to be seen again. I know of a few folks, politicians particularly, and a couple of problematic spiders I'd like to see sent to Egypt. LOL

    What trailer hitch for a 2023 S2S?

    Don't cheap out, go OEM. I've seen photos of welds cracking on aftermarket hitches.

    Is there a section for vendors

    Since Xmas is just around the corner, my wife is bugging me about what I want for Xmas, and of course, SL's removed their vendor list. Does anyone know where there's a convenient and easy to access can am vendors list? My wife will thank you.

    Any recommendations on a Trickle charge set up for a Canyon?

    I keep Harbor Freight tenders on all my batteries during the coldest months of winter. I also have NOCO's biggest, most powerful, and most expensive battery booster to jump a battery should it fail to stay charged. Recently, my NOCO booster failed to take a charge, and it's just outside of...

    FS: RT Accessories For Sale

    No. Your seat is all one piece. Sorry, I know because I have a 14 RT SE6. (Nice ride.) There are several 4 sale on this form; however, shipping makes them darn near worthless. The best is to find one close enough to you that you can go get it yourself. Good luck searching.

    Can You See Me Now? New lights fitted.

    It must be terribly annoying to the passenger. I don't think my wife would put up with that thing past two stops. LOL. There has to be an off switch on that thing for that reason. A passenger would likely render the attachment useless anyway. Just say'n...
