• 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.

    Question

    New Battey time Short answer is Yes. I kept my 08 battery on a tender pretty much all of the time I wasn't on the road. I got five years out of it before I noted that the tender was taking longer to go from yellow to green. I replaced the battery while I was home so it wouldn't hand me an...

    BAd Key Error Message

    Had that problem once. As others have said. Make sure there is no key within 30 to 50 yards of the bike and try again. Worked for me. Good Luck :thumbup:

    2009 GS SE5 will not start

    You did not mention pressing the mode switch as part of the starting sequence. Mine won't start unless I do that, but I do not have an SE. Good Luck :thumbup:

    Braker rotors

    Besides the torque issue mentioned above, driving long distances with you foot riding on the brake can also overheat the discs, causing them to warp. This should however cause all three to warp, not just the front. Just a thought, I have no idea of your personal driving habits.

    Front tires

    Something is not right in your front end. Unless there is a problem with your front end or your air gauge; you should not need to change your front tires. I have over 35K miles on my stock front tires and expect to get at least 50K miles or better out of them before they are in need of...

    Installation of RT shocks on 2011 RS Spyder

    If you add oil to the threads, do it after you have torqued them. JMHO

    Installation of RT shocks on 2011 RS Spyder

    The swap is straight forward. Remove the bolt at each end of the old shocks. Replace with the new shocks. I don't remember the torque setting on the shock bolts. Having a jack will help ease the alignment of the bolts with the holes. I have a sway bar and set the RT shocks on 5. I like...

    Broken Rear fender supports (again) RS

    Interesting solution mounting the fender from above. Different machines seem to have different harmonics and of course we all drive a little different. I know some machines with a lot more miles that have had no cracking at all and others that have less miles and have given up and gone...

    Dead Bike

    I agree about the battery, but the Spyder does not really need protection from the rain. I have ridden all day for several days in a row in the rain with no problems. I have even ridden in torrential rain with all the body work removed and had no issues. Sounds like some of your aftermarket...

    gs rear wheel lighting

    The license plate circuit is great as it is not watched by the Nanny. I like to solder but connectors from the Posi Tap family have a good rep and make changes and maintenance easier.

    Can't find a schematic for part #219800246

    Hi Folks, Even though BRP replaced my cracked fender brackets under warranty last time they are saying No to another replacement at this time. It is a little frustrating that a body part that you would expect to last the service life of the vehicle is not covered, but so be it. I am trying...
