• 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.

    I Thought BRP Changed Rear Tire Compounds For Longer Tire Life

    Peter, thank you for the information, it was very helpful. Looks like I need to decide what I am going to replace it with and if I go with something other than Kenda I need to find someone that will put it on for me.

    I Thought BRP Changed Rear Tire Compounds For Longer Tire Life

    After 5000+ miles on my 2014 RT, I am now seeing the center wear taking place on my OEM Kenda rear tire. Not sure if I will get another 2000 miles out of it. We almost always ride 2 up and I keep the rear suspension pressure correct for our weight as well as tire pressures. I think I will...

    "Gliding into the groove" sensation

    Thanks for this post! I have over 5000 miles now on my 2014 RT and know exactly what you are feeling. I have felt the "nanny" kick in twice so far. The first time it happened it was like... WTF was that! I think Michael nailed it with his explanation, at least it was similar to what I was...

    How many miles can you ride when gas light comes on RT model?

    I have a 2014 RT. The only time I had to push the envelope with the light on, I was on a state road doing a steady 55 mph and got 28 miles before I reached a gas station. I was sweating bullets since I didn't know how far the next station was. I usually start looking for gas around 150 to 180...

    RT vibration issue

    Vibration!! Cleg, I can so relate. I came on the site to ask the very same question to the forum to get some feedback on this very issue. I have put on almost 5000 miles on my 2014 RT se6. We just did a 400+ mile ride this past weekend and I seem to have a low level vibration that I feel...

    Need advice

    Thanks guys, I took off panel again and made sure that little tab at the top got into the slot and that did it. I looked over and over trying to find what was the problem. That top tab looks in the slot even when it isn't but could see the difference once it was in the proper place. Thanks...

    Need advice

    Steve, I will double check on the tab to make sure. As to the LED's being too high, no they are not in the way. I mounted them as low as they can get and I also checked that when this problem occurred. Thanks for the advice. Bob

    Need advice

    I just got finished installing Tricled's 3rd and 4th brake light kit. Everything went smoothly. Removed the rear upper and lower body panels to make it easier to get to the wiring harness. I installed the LED's and the body panels. Everything went smoothly with the installation BUT upon...

    I'm having second thoughts!

    Well, I picked up the bike today and had a 100+ ride home to start getting use to my spider. Had a great trip home and she purred like a kitten. Thanks for the positive comments and the support. Can't wait for my next ride.

    I'm having second thoughts!

    Thanks guys, really do appreciate the quick response and the good things that was said. Don't get me wrong, I already have a list of mods I would like to do but it was the impression I was getting of the "need" instead of the "want" when it came to the mods. I'm feeling better already.

    I'm having second thoughts!

    I pick up my 2014 RT Spyder tomorrow and I have been doing a lot of reading on the forum. I have read some great stuff that has increased my knowledge of the Sypder but unfortunately I have read about quite a lot of problems that seem to go along with it as well such as: bad batch of front...
