• 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.

    Where to find the RT-L Air filter - it's not where my Owner's Manual suggests!

    Confusion comes sometimes by the method of right side vs left side as to how it is perceived. That is standing in front of bike as opposed to sitting on bike.

    First ride after adding seat gel hoping for more comfort, but nope, no change! What to do? Anybody made theirs better?

    Seats do need to be broken in before making a final assessment. Just like making judgements on how the bike handles, you'll need to put some time in the saddle first, and that may take a bunch of miles.

    Do the 2023/24 RT Speakers sound good & loud enough?

    On my 2024 F3L with 60/40 rear bias speaker setting listening to Sirius XM Satellite radio, sounds quite well wearing 1/2 helmet.

    Trip, Maine to Yellowstone

    Beartooth Highway is closed until the end of the month for snow removal, and some other roads in Yellowstone. It's a little early for trips in that area.

    2024 models - my observations re the Driveline whine - do other 2024 owners hear the same?

    After having my 2024 F3L Limited for a few months, I have noticed a change in the driveline whine that previous years have had. Before, my 2020 RTL and the 2022 F3L Limited had the known 50-53 mph whine. When I drove home with the 2024, I did not notice the whine and thought that BRP finally...

    Anyone fitted an Apple Carplay dongle to make '24 ACP Wireless to iPhone?

    A dongle plugged into the rear USB will allow ACP work on the display. However, you will not get audible noise unless using a headset. If you ride without a headset and want ACP maps with turn by turn directions on the display, then a cheap dongle is the way to go.

    May be old news to some, but the 2024/25 starting procedure doesn't need you to wait for the display safety stuff...

    As I said - 2024/25 RT/F3 models. The mode button was for 2020-2023 models.

    May be old news to some, but the 2024/25 starting procedure doesn't need you to wait for the display safety stuff...

    For the 2024/25 RT/F3 owners this may be old news to you and if not so be it. When starting up the bike, after turning key on, instead of waiting for the display stuff to go through the safety stuff, just twist forward the throttle and hit the start button. Can save a few seconds.

    Does your Saddlebag need to be slammed to latch?

    I have found on my 2022 and 2024 F3L side compartment doors when closing will not latch the first time is the latch cable did not fully return the latch and I just pull and release again on latch and then will close in a normal fashion.

    First long ride this season with the 360 camera

    Unfortunately, if the dealer replaced the OEM strut with another one… the chances are that it is no better than before! I have had three Spyders, and all have had struts, whether seat or rear top storage lids, fail shortly after going into service or like the last one, being no good when I left...

    Thinking about buying a Can Am - looking for advice??

    Not having a bike since 2018 tells me you haven’t ridden for quite sometime. Going to a spyder with no experience in riding one can be challenging and discouraging at same time. To give yourself and your lady friend a fair chance to feel comfortable and to give yourselves the feeling that you...

    I tried to install the BRP drivers backrest...

    Sounds like my F3L is lot easier to install and remove at will.
