• 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.

    What would cause this DPS effect?

    Yes the dealer did my DPS change way back when BRP issued a change on all models from 08-? which did include mine. My 2008 RS did a more severe lock than this, but that was taken care of. ;)

    What would cause this DPS effect?

    Spyder 2010 RTS, manual. Been ryding just fine for quite some time until about a 200-300 miles ago. Currently at 9700 and change. At about 22-24mph and higher, the DPS will suddently stiffen up and not allow enough steering movement to go around curves from exit ramps. I usually go about...

    Rear trunk adjustment

    Yes this meathod is the only way to adjust the trunk closing. Loosen all four screws under the trunk rim on either side of the latch. Push the panels inward and tighten each screw as you go. Works EVRY time!

    Thanks. I did have a relaxing good time. But my biggest disappointment would have to be the croud. Iv'e been seeing in recent years too many drooping parts or others that should just not even attend try anymore.

    Bike week in Laconia NH this weekend anyone?

    Bike week in Laconia NH this weekend anyone?

    What back roads do you take? For me the RT93 is the longest stretch. From my house (near rt128/93 cloverleaf) to Laconia is about 2hrs.

    Got a speeding ticket yesterday...

    The State trooper wrote the ticket for 80+ in a 55. I'm not sure exactly how fast I was going, only becuase I was concentraiting on getting past a truck that was trailering a bike and I dont always like to sit in the left high speed lane. I could fight it, but he also did mark down that it...

    Tendonitis in right hand

    For me I am pretty sure the origination is at the wrist bend. I used the kinesio tape to help in the PT at home last year. I will have to use it again now. That plus perhaps a Carpel tunnel brace may help me. I also find that if I ride with my my right hand over the throttle, no thumb under...

    Tendonitis in right hand

    Yea, I've got the stretchy rubber bands etc. I did do the excecises. But once then tendon gets inflamed, it keeps on hurting and gets worse. An ice pack helps momentarily, but it does come back again.

    Tendonitis in right hand

    RT 2012 Fox Shocks vs. Elkas Please help compare

    So I hear that the new FOX shocks on the 2012 RTS is far better than the stock ones I have on my 2010 RTS. Question is, it it worth buying the FOX 2012's or Elkas? Big price difference too. Where is the best price to get the FOX shocks?
