• 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.

    Can someone help me find these Scoops for Spyder RT 2011

    Isn't that the air scoop for the heat mitigation kit for the 2013 that many have put on other year Spyders?

    Throttle body whistle from BajaRons intake system - any tips to reduce the noise?

    You would be rolling on the floor laughing yourself silly if you could see some of the mistakes the rest of us have made. Glad you saw yours so quickly.

    What are your Phone Holder Preferences? Brand/style & placement?

    I use the Ram phone holder and the Ram mounting hardware. I use Ram RAM-B-149Z-A-PD4U to hold the phone and if I were building it today I would use an ATV/UTV strap base mount. Back in the day I used a Ram Mounts Ram B 309 1 U Motorcycle Brake/Clutch Reservoir Ball Base With B Size 1" Ball held...

    Throttle body whistle from BajaRons intake system - any tips to reduce the noise?

    I am sorry I expressed myself so badly, but Peter's discription is what I was refering to, move the whole thing not just the paper element but everything. Look at the whole installation. I do have an increased intake roar, but not that much and at cruising you can't really hear it. But no whistle

    Throttle body whistle from BajaRons intake system - any tips to reduce the noise?

    I have been running this air cleaner since 2016 and have never noticed a whistle. It does have a louder roar then stock, but barely so. If yours is whistling then I think you have an air leak somewhere and you will have to access the air cleaner and see if you can find it. This is going to be...

    I am now Spyderless

    Well, somehow I missed this back in February, so I'm late to the party. I, too, am coming to that time when I will be taking my last ride. I am very sorry to hear of your situation, but I completely understand. Most of my riding friends have quit, gotten too old, sick, or just plain passed on...

    What Phone/GPS Holder works with the early RT Handlebars?

    I used 2 hose clamps to hold a straight ram mount to the handlebar. Works great. I'll take a picture and post it. Oh... it was also very cheap!

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

    The Proof-readers and translators are not always at the top of their game at BRP. They are also known to get lazy and just cut and paste information from previous models, even if it doesn't fit. Glad you found the right information. Too bad you can't just change the filter on your lungs and get...

    Just wanted to share the unbridled joy and ease of riding the Spyder!

    I have been on my Spyder for 10 years and 80,000+ miles. I came to the Spyder thru a Honda Conversion that I rode for 4 years. I saw my Spyder KSL.com a local sales platform, sold the Goldwing and never looked back. I was 68 and just recovering from an accident that put me and my wife in the...

    Have you experienced any Road rage incidents?

    It was 2 o'clock in the morning coming home from work. I just wanted to be home. No traffic, no Highway Patrol, and No cell phone. I took the easiest way out. He had gotten in front of me, so I slowed down, and at the next exit, I waited until it looked like I was going to cruise past, then...

    Have you experienced any Road rage incidents?

    Not on the bike or on the Spyder. I did once in the car several years ago, but I managed to sneak off an exit and get away.

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

    I don't know what brand of gel pad that you used. I used a gel pad from Motorcycledave.com. His pad is designed to go under the seat cover so as not even to be seen. When I mounted mine I also shaved away a little of the edge so as not rub on the insides of my thighs. I ran this pad for many...

    Any thoughts on Ground clearance on the RTL?

    There is no such thing as "Darkside" on a Spyder. The rims on a Spyder are "J" type rims and require a "J" type bead, the same as a car tire. Your new Spyder, despite what the sidewall may say, comes with a very flimsy car tire. When you wear it out, which will be soon enough, replace it with...

    In Memory of those Members who are now riding the Forever Road - RIP

    Who remembers "Mr White" He had a white Spyder and a White Goldwing and lived in Florida. Great posts. I think he was in his 90's a few years ago. I am sure he has passed, anybody know when?
