• 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.

    2010 RT Tire Replacement - do I need to use beads to balance it? What size valve stem?

    I have been using beads for probably over 12-15 years now. Bikes cars,3/4 pickup. They work well. One advantage is they balance the tire thru its entire life.

    I use SENA, mine are SMH 10. But there are newer units now. They do make a 1/2 helmet set up. For me the speakers for me are not clear enough. I found even with a 3/4 helmet and a few hours on highway, My ears were ringing like when I was working on the flightline. So I have modified the units...

    Spyder RT 2011 Burning my Right Leg - Any fixes?

    I would think the last thing you want to do is "block off" anything if your getting tons of heat. Air flow is what you're looking for. Sounds like Ron's solution makes more sense. On some of the HD and VIctory that had some oil cooler heat issues, which in turn could cause rider heat. Guys used...

    Is anyone running these Bright yellow lights as headlights or foglights?

    So On my F3 fog lights I bought some "static cling" type sheet off Amazon. Made a template with a piece of paper and layed it out on lens. Had to use a hair dryer to heat it a little and smooth it out with old credit card to lay flat.

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

    I bought a kayak air seat cushion years ago. I have looked, but they don't make the exact one any more. But this one on amazon is similar and $14. For the money, if it works; if not, then maybe invest in an Airhawk?

    Why Is Overfilling Oil “Bad”?

    As mentioned, gaskets start to leak, and oil for some reason even on wet sump bikes ends up in the air intake. As the crank splashes the oil it vaporizes and the PCV (crankcase vent system) recycles gases back thru the air intake.

    Anyone with a new iPhone have a problem using Sygic maps on BRP Connect?

    Great! I have a '19 F3L and just switched from android to iPhone. Like learning this hasn't been enough of a struggle. It was bad enough trying to get my Sena to connect.

    Is this a Major Electrical Short??? Any suggestions?

    Personally I hate battery tenders. Most times they give you a false sense your battery will last longer. Your better off putting a switch or disconnecting the battery for long storage, then before riding season put it on a low amp charge before riding season or use your tender to top it off. The...

    Trip, Maine to Yellowstone

    Keep an eye on your ramp along the way for bends. Guys around here use those kind of trailers and I see the ramps "bow" a lot. But they drive up and down them with riding mowers probably 6 or 8 times a day also. So just be mindful. Sounds like a nice trip. Take your time and enjoy.

    Got an Over heating warning at idle, went away riding - any ideas what could be wrong?

    Depending on how "low" the coolant was I could also agree on air bubble. If it doesn't do it again on kind of a regular basis you're probably good to go. If it comes back regular like, look to a sensor probably.

    2019 RT Limited with Radio and Bluetooth issues - it works, then starts skipping! Any ideas?

    I do not know for sure. But I was going to say when it skips like you describe, sounds like a signal issue.
