• 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.

    Seeking opinions

    Lots of goofy comments here. The 998 engine was still used in the RS and ST in the 2016 models so there are still lots of BRP dealer mechanics that know how to work on them and I don't see parts being a problem for a few years. Geezzz. Not sure if you are looking for an excuse to get a newer...

    trailers, towing

    Steve, I went down to a local steel seller and bought a longer piece of 2" square tubing to replace the shorter HF tongue that came with the Tag-Along. Worked like a champ.

    Bluetooth delay?

    All Bluetooth devices have a delay, it is the nature of the beast. You take analog (your voice), digitize it, send it over the air, un-digitize it, feed it into the earpiece. Anytime you encode and then decode there will be a delay. If you are having a hard time understanding her due to the...

    CB on a 2016 RT Limited -- Trouble

    As an Amateur Radio operator I can say that many/most LED lights generate some RF noise. That noise would most likely come into your CB radio via the antenna and on a Spyder everything is close together! The other day I plopped my FM music radio down on a table in the corner of the garage...

    Blinky Blinky issues

    All above wrong. You have too much blinker fluid in the right bulb.

    Two questions

    For the E-ZPass I put both my wife's and mine on the frunk lid. Hers, a 2014 RTL cognac color worked fine but mine, a 2013 RS silver color would only work about 1/2 the time. Perhaps the silver paint has more metal in it, attenuating the RF signal. I moved my E-ZPass up on my dash, inside a...

    freedom trailers - anyone installed extra racks?

    I put some fairly thin diamond plate aluminium over my top box to carry a small fuel can plus it is amazing how it keeps the inside of the top box cool in the sun, just a couple of degrees above ambient! I used four 1/4" x 1" threaded spacers to mount it, all stainless. You might be able to do...

    How loud are Spyder Attitude Mufflers

    You are actually wanting the music to be louder because you made your Spyder too loud to hear it? Wow. Be a nice person and stop screaming like a rice-box lawnmower or a Harley wannabe going down the road. Do the rest of the world and ours and your hearing a favor. Enjoy the ryde. If you just...

    Has anyone tried this kind of pet trailer on your Spyder?

    I saw a SUV on the exit ramp of a 70 mph Interstate highway pulling one of those kiddie bicycle trailers. Looked like the family was coming back from a weekend outing, with 3 or 4 bicycles on the back rack and that poor little trailer attached to the hitch on the SUV. No kids inside. I expected...

    Motorcycle campers and the RT

    We bought ours used and took the cage from Baltimore up to New Hampshire to get it. Haven't been to see the folks in OK.

    Tag-along Trailer

    Best to run a separate ground wire to all lights and not depend on the trailer frame. Also get rid of all the crimp connections, solder and weatherproof and put in a wire loom where exposed to the outside.

    Motorcycle campers and the RT

    We go to the beach, she tows the camper and I tow the Tag-Along. Works for us. We had a Combi-Camp, now have a Roll-A-Home camper, have yet to tow the new one with a Spyder. When we went to the beach this last year 45° and rain was predicted for half the time we were going to be there, and it...
