• 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.

    Overheating...

    Sitting off might make the problem worse. Idling for a bit before turning it off seems to help in some cases. The cooling system continues to function rather than just the fan. There's two temp warnings, one for engine/coolant temp and one for intake air temp. The intake air temp will...

    Mods For Heat Correction!

    That's good news. Maybe I'll ride down to see Len to solve my heat issues. I wish BRP would say something... to anyone. My dealer hasn't been given nearly as much info as we have here.

    Ongoing ST heat Mods

    Take it to your dealer and have them open a ticket with BRP. BRP is working on a permanent solution and will pay for temporary fixes (such as wrapping exhaust) under warranty in the meantime.

    Overheating...

    If the dealer has checked the cooling system and it's working then you're probably getting one of the heat "warnings". When the intake air temps exceed a certain level it'll let you know that it doesn't like it. But it won't stop you from riding and as soon as you start moving it'll go away...

    Ongoing ST heat Mods

    I'm sure there's a fix and BRP's working on it, they're just not communicating well so we're all left wondering and worrying.

    Ongoing ST heat Mods

    There is apparent heat, like what you feel on the left side. .. or what rt and rs riders feel on the right. And then there's HEAT. Like the kind that melts master cylinders causing brake failure, boils gas in the tank so that it sprays out on you when you open it, and causes the bike to...

    Ongoing ST heat Mods

    I'm not sure all st's are effected. I keep seeing people that are having no heat trouble . Or am I imagining this?

    Anybody having Problems with ordering from Kewl Metal?

    A trick I use to get kewl metal parts is to order them from another company that stocks and resells KM parts. And email or call them to make sure they have it in stock first if you're in a hurry. The other way I survive this without medication is to just not be in a hurry. It took 10 weeks to...

    Some clarification on the P0127 and P0217 messages

    It's great to hear the official word on this! There are other issues of this nature that are left to our imaginations and we'd love to continue to hear from BRP regularly on these subjects. Also, this should be made sticky somewhere.

    To SHIFT or NOT TO SHIFT

    Nope. This is easy! I like this game. Next silly question please!

    After-market Exhaust on 2013 Models

    Another thing to note is that the Yoshi pipe is a pretty quiet pipe relatively speaking... And the ST cat is separate from the exhaust pipe (unlike on your RS) so the sound will be even more muted by the cat. Might need a "free flowing cat" such as this one...

    Some thing weird happen !

    I have to agree. Stalling after the first handful of miles isn't a good thing.

    Update to the melted master brake cylinder situation

    Always nice to get conflicting information. Today I noticed they changed their toll free number to only work inside canada. And, of course, they closed early today in the US.

    Melted Master Cylinder Reservoir

    I don't know what to tell ya... I don't want to sit and make payments on something that's suicidal to ride in this condition either. But I can tell ya, suddenly losing your brakes will change your mind real quick. At least on the GS there was/is a parking brake which would do SOMETHING. If...

    Melted Master Cylinder Reservoir

    I'd just wait for BRP to make one. And avoid riding it in the meantime.
