• 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.

    BAD DEALERS

    I have sent BRP an email to their customer representative. NO RESPONSE or even an acknowledgement of my complaint. BRP is not a customer friendly customer.

    2013 RT Sway Bars....

    so, does the 2013 RT Limited sway bar require special tools and a special lift to change out from the OEM bar? Does the newly installed bumpskid have to be removed to install it?

    Hot foot problem

    Well, I am going to take off my SpyderPops block off plate and leave the baker bilt wings on for the lowers. I think the block off plate does cause it to overheat, as Spyderpops was warned by BRP. Will wait and see if I can get a molded deflector the radiator exhaust that shoves the hot air...

    Stirrup's for the Spyder

    Sounds like a great idea, except when you need to panic stop and you can't get your right foot out of the stirrup for emergency braking....

    Hot foot problem

    Did you have the radiator block off plate installed also? Yes, we both can see the dealer, but it is not the first time BRP has developed a machine for the hot environmental conditions. This truly is not rocket science and I don't accept the fact that we should not expect a product that runs...

    Hot foot problem

    Well, not to be abrasive and certainly not intending to, but using that reasoning for driving a brand new machine is on the far side of absurdity. One should be able to drive it without burning your feet up, having limp home mode indicators coming and overheating...BRP knows of the issues and...

    Hot foot problem

    Dang, it only has 500 miles on it. I mean, a 30k dollar machine should not require that much maintenance

    Hot foot problem

    don't think it was, as I was shocked and did not pay attention to the sound of the fan. After I rev'd the engine I know the fan was on and the gauge dropped to mid range.

    Hot foot problem

    well, I might have spoken too soon. I posted the comment quoted above earlier in this thread. Today, took the 2013 RT Limited on a 200 mile ride. Hottest temps in the sun were about 91. Did not have any trouble with heat until I got almost home at about 2:30 pm. After I filled up with gas...

    UltraGard Half Cover

    I just bought a Nelson Rigg half cover. It is specifically designed for the CAM Am Spyder RT Limited and has two slits in rear for the am/fm antennae and another slit for the CB antennae, should you install one. It is 54.95. Nice product.

    Bob, now you are beginning to sound like a Goldwing rider...heading to the nearest Dairy Queen. :opps::opps::opps::joke:

    Hot foot problem

    I am retired and don't really see a reason to ride in those high temp days...if I do, it will be in the early morning to early afternoon, and then off of the road either home or hotel. I am fortunate that I can select when, where and why I ride. BTW, as I recently sold my 2011 Harley Triglide...

    Hot foot problem

    No 86 degrees is not hot, except in the direct sunlight, it gets warm. Point is that the radiator exhaust hole, in similar degree days was like a blow torch....now it is not.... Also, by me modifying my stock seat and moving me way back, I get better leg position on the RT floorboards. My...

    Hot foot problem

    Today, I did the ride and heat test. I have installed the SpyderPops.com heat block plate and the bakerwings lower foot deflectors. I rode in temps nearly 86+ for about a hundred miles. BTW, did it in shorts and sneakers. No issue on the heat at all and the dash indicated a cooling range in...

    Got my 2013 RT Limited new on April 27, 2013....seat being customized

    Pictures Provided.... Rather than duplicate all of the pictures in my forum album, I refer you to my album for pictures taken today. The seat, as far as roominess for me, is perfect. Very comfortable and he did exactly what I wanted. I can now add a back rest. The seat developed a small wrinkle...

    Got my 2013 RT Limited new on April 27, 2013....seat being customized

    Took my stock seat to the upholsterer today to re-work the seat to my specs. He just called and said I could pick up the finished product. He said it was a little more work than estimated, but we had a flat price...can't wait to see it reshaped for me. Will post pics later.

    Wiring the Integrated High Mount Light from Custom Dynamics

    I just installed the HMT Brake light, with running light option. All I had to do is remove the rear panel, losen the black fender and right tail light, and hook the Custom Dynamics 5 pin connector and dual converter into the existing harness. Worked like a champ and the instructions were very...
