• 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.

    Spyder RT Limited – My observations

    I follow Lamonster's post about the 2 screws for accessing the battery to check connections on the battery. However if you had to completely remove the battery on a 2011 RTS could you get it out that way or do more panels have to come off. I have seen a tech take off the rear side panel after...

    Removal of panels - What tool????

    Picked this up at Lowes. Kobalt racheting driver with torx, slotted, philips, allen head assortment plus 8 + 10 mm sockets. 5 more SAE sockets also. $10.00 for the little kit. Pretty good quality for the money and has a nice little case also so you can throw it in the trunk. Added a 10MM box...

    B.E.S.T. Plus question?

    Yup the "check" is laid out pretty plainly in the manual but some that have Best Plus are paying for filter and oil after dealer does free "check" or "inspection" some are not. Some are paying differance between BRP allowed rates and dealer actual hourly rates, some are not. IT'S AS PLAIN AS MUD...

    B.E.S.T. Plus question?

    :agree: :agree: Too much confussion about what 600 mile "check" includes and what "maintainance" includes with best plus. I see nothing so far which lays it out in writting.

    B.E.S.T. Plus question?

    That thread does not ans much about Best Plus, other than diff people saying it covers diff things. My dealer could not give me specifics on best plus and said he has never sold a best plus policy, because they were not worth it. So ?????? Guess BRP could care less about the confusion as it...

    B.E.S.T. Plus question?

    The clock is ticking on my 60 days to sign up for Best. Right now based on what I have read here I think I am just going to get the BEST not BEST PLUS. Just have to bite the bullet on reg service costs.

    B.E.S.T. Plus question?

    Been trying to find anything from anywhere IN WRITTING about "Best Plus" all I can find is the info in this brochure about "Best". BRP seems to be very secretive about info on their Best Plus and what it sells for. Apparently every dealer has his own Best and Best Plus price and mark up from...

    Ride-On Question

    Based on excellent recs of very knowledgable people on this board I am going to go with this product for new RTS. Question is this - Any problem with the goo inside tire rim when it's time for new tire change or does it spin out and cling mainly to the old tires? thanks

    Spyder RT Limited – My observations

    That's good about the battery holding it's charge and eliminating one set of problems, sounds like it was not preped right by dealer. Sorry to hear about the turn signal problem though glad they got that fixed for you. I have about 25 days left to sign up for the Best without the $75/yr...

    Be Careful Out There

    I trust no car I see waiting to pull out from a driveway, or at a stop sign. It's not the most fun way to ride but it is the only way if ya want to survive. Also deer everywhere where we live and ride. My wife reaches over my shoulder and points to them when we are riding never assuming I see...

    Old Eyes and safety

    Tape a 6 inch strip of Guerilla duct tape over them front and back punch a hole where plastic peg fits through. The small amount of tape that will show just gives it "character":doorag:. By the way, watched a dealer :bowdown: take rear side panel off 2011 RTS without removing the 1-lower wind...

    Old Eyes and safety

    When pulling the top side panel one or both of the 2 grommets in the rear side panel are/is almost sure to pull out and end up on the ground under the bike. We were 3 for 3 with this happening on 3 different bikes the other day.:opps: It's not a problem puttng them back (if you can find them)...

    Duct tape is cheaper and more effective, it is also recommended by Red Green, our hero.:thumbup:

    Old Eyes and safety

    Well I guess my 3 riding buddies and I that just purchased RTS's and Limited's are all wrong about the size of the print on the screen and how difficult it is to read and focus on the small screen print quickly will going down a country road at 55 mph Guess that would pertain to the rear...

    Old Eyes and safety

    The generation of riders I see on the RT's is not the the "younger audience" it's the "boomers":doorag:. Ya know the ones with bad eyes and $30k to slap down to buy these things, the same ones concerned about holding up their 1000Lb Harley tour bike with the wife on the back:ohyea:. And I do...

    Old Eyes and safety

    Like my RTS but wish BRP would make the info on the screen at least twice maybe 3 times the size it is now. It's to F%*&# SMALL period to easily see while your trying to drive !!!! It's actually a safety concern..... about the only thing that is easily decernable is the Speed (nice big numbers)...
