• 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.

    coatin on 2008g on rear drive pulley

    My daughters boyfriends rear toothed pulley has some chips on the coating on the teeth. Does anyone know what type of coating BRP used on this item? It does not appear to be plated but looks more like an epoxy power coating. Any ideas? Thanks

    Clunking sounds when turning?

    clunk when turning Good question but I don't believe that replacing the sway bar would void any future warranty work on the bike. I would have them check out the links to make sure everything is aligned and all bolts are tight. I am sure that they will charge for that but it should be minimal...

    Clunking sounds when turning?

    clunk when turning I replaced both Heim links when I put on the new sway bar from Ron. The plastic heim links on mine were OK but some have had them break. My guess is that the sway bar is either not centered or the bar has slipped one way or another in the plastic bushings. I am closer to...

    Starting In Limp Mode

    P1614 When I got that code it was a TB issue. Never got the Limp mode screen but bike would not idle. One dealer did an update but finely replaced the TB after a few more failures to run right. Dealer should have found this code himself. Good luck.

    need some help

    loose belt I have never seen much stretch in any of my belt driven bikes. Therefore I believe the dealer did not adjust it correctly when he replaced the rear pulley and you just noticed it. If the rear wheel is not wobble loose then it just need adjustment. First notify the dealer of the...
