• 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.

    2022 RT Rims are HARD TO CLEAN! What do you do?

    I have this wheel detail kit that I use to get in the crevices. https://www.autogeek.net/speed-master-wheel-woolies-kit.html I have the larger one in this two brush set that I use on my cars and the larger part of the Spyder wheels. I think the smaller one in this kit would work good for the...

    Anyone here run Elka or M2 shocks? Your take on them?

    I'm running Elka Stage 2 shocks all around plus the Baha Ron Swaybar on my 2021 RTL and it handles about as good as you can get a Spyder to handle. It definitely corners better than stock. I ride with a guy that rides a 2021 Goldwing and I don't have a problem keeping up with him and he pushes...

    2021 RTL - Glove Box Cover Sprung - anyone else? Any fixes?

    I went to get my phone out of my glove box on my 2021 RTL Sunday and when I popped it open it only opened maybe 1/8 of the way. It didn't open near as far as it usually does after releasing the latch. I was in a hurry and wasn't paying attention too much and just pulled it up thinking I didn't...

    Cyberattack on BRP

    e e I am also in IT at a fairly large corp and an avid follower of the Darknet Diaries podcast. There is a pretty high probability that BRP did not get compromised by an attack on one of their external (internet) facing applications. Attacks like this usually come from the inside, where...

    Garmin Zumo XT - how readable; mountable; & lockable are they?

    Like the others have said, the XT screen is easily readable in bright light. I rode Sunday in 96 degree weather with the sun blaring down and not once could I not see it. Best screen on a GPS I have ever seen. I have it mounted between the bars with the Lamonster riser mount. You do have to...

    How do I play Zumo XT voice directions through Spyder speakers?

    I have a couple of question on this setup. I currently have everything connected to my Zumo XT and nothing is paired to my 2021 RTL. That was after all of the frustration of trying to use the AUX Bluetooth adapter so everything goes through the bike. My current setup works great but I miss...

    “Mini-Carport” shelter for outdoor Spyder storage - what's available?

    I posted the Bike Barn link above and if you look at my signature you will see I have a 2021 RTL and it fits perfectly fine in it.

    “Mini-Carport” shelter for outdoor Spyder storage - what's available?

    I have a Bike Barn that I have been using for a year. I put a BRP outdoor cover over the Spyder inside the Bike Barn to keep dust off and the few small drips that may come through the Bike Barn seams http://www.thebikebarn.net/model_trike.html

    2020+ Front Lower LED Light comparison

    I have the Slingmods LED light bar. It is way plenty bright, even in the bright sunlight. At night you may have cars flashing high beams at you if you turn it on.

    2020 RTL - Anyone think they will ever update the bluetooth to work with other device

    Try connecting the Zumo XT to your 2021 RTL. If you can get that to work straight to BRP connect without the AUX BT adapter then you have a Unicorn RTL.

    MPG oddity on 2021 RTL

    I have noticed this too on my 2021 RTL. It seems that the trip screen that is active gets the calculations and the others do not. I noticed that if I ride with Trip A active it will calculate the numbers but if I leave the Total screen active Trip A has goofy values. I track my mileage using...

    Anyone used thebikebarn Trike Shelter for their Spyder? What else?

    I have a Bike Barn. Got it in May when I got my 2021 RTL. I didn't have room in my garage for the Spyder so I had to find a way to store it outside. I have a concrete pad on the side of my house (extension off my driveway) that I have it on. One side is the house and the other side has a 7ft...

    2020 RTL BAJA Ron Sway Bar Vs Stock Vs Shocks - your experiences?

    I have both the sway bar and Elka shocks all around. I would say that most people are like me and did sway bar first and then added the Elka shocks later due to the difference in price between the two options. I would also say that the majority of people find what they are looking for after the...
