• 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.

    New member, thanks for having me - and where's a good place to get these things?

    Have you looked on Amazon? I’m also in Canada and have ordered a few goodies for my RTL from Amazon.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Took the front wheels to a local tire shop to have a new set of tires mounted and balanced. Since the front wheels were off and I have my Baja Ron tie down rings back from being powder coated (black to match the black trim) I figured it was a good time to get them installed.

    Looking for another rider to join me on a Long distance tour, Windsor Ontario to Cape Breton to PEI to Newfoundland and back, July 2025!!!!

    Unfortunately that trip just isn’t in the cards for me this year. If you are taking the 401 you will pass within a kilometre of my house which is about 20 minutes past London. Can’t wait to read about your trip!!

    Headlight "hazing" pre 2019 RT models

    I just had a quick look in my owners manual and didn’t see a part number for the light bulb. I have just under 25000 kilometres on mine and it also gets parked in my garage.

    Headlight "hazing" pre 2019 RT models

    I live in Canada. Most of my riding is during the day so those lights don’t get turned on too often.

    BRP side boxes locked, no key, any ideas?

    Here in Ontario Canada you can go to the DOT office and pay a fee to receive a Used Vehicle Information kit. If a private individual is selling a used vehicle they must provide it to the new purchaser. In the package it lists all the previous owners and their address during their ownership. If...

    Spyder Apple Carplay won't work without a headset! Any luck in getting BRP to address this safety & inconvenient issue?

    I have done a variation of this with my Sena on a few occasions. I have a portable power pack with a USB port on it that I plug into then put the power pack into my inside jacket pocket. I do it this way so that I can plug my phone in to charge when needed. I use my phone for navigation and blue...

    Does anyone leave the parking brake off during winter storage? And some rodent protection discussion...

    My RT is in my brother in law’s out building for the winter. I left the parking brake off and blocked the rear wheel, that way he can move it if the need arises.

    Reminder - record your End-of-Year milage for comparison/averages/new goals! And Happy New Year!

    My kilometres for the year are low. Between the motorcycle I sold in September and my RT which replaced it I rode just over 3200 kilometres last year. (Most of that amount was on my RT)

    I got clotheslined!

    Glad to hear you weren’t injured!!!
