• 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.

    Communication ?

    Can anybody tell me how to adjust the sensitivity of the VOX mikes on the RT? I just can't seem to figure it out by reading the owners manual. Probably should just get one of the grandkids to fix it for me! Riding in Kansas means you will have wind issues. The wind keeps setting off the mikes...

    Where do I find an explanation for Fault codes? Got code P0524

    Bootie, Glad to hear that! I took mine to the shop for the P0524 and they couldn't find anything, said they thought it had a corroded connector! Doublespeak for " we don't know what is wrong". If it happens again I'll try your way. Thanks Dwight

    600 mile check

    Tea, Did they agree to do an alignment? Mine will be going in for the 6000 pretty soon and I would like them to check the sensors involved in the alignment to see if they are within the limits. Dwight

    Rear Shock

    I think Matt at Kewlmetal is working with Elka on a rear shock for the RT. I sent Elka a picture out of the shop manual of the rear suspension system. I had asked about a rear shock from them and they said they didn't have any because of the air shock. The picture shows them that the shock is...

    Front tire diameter?

    Extracool, Did you mount the tires yourself? I asked my dealer about having him mount my tires (purchased elsewhere) and he quoted $25 per tire. I may also buy a new set of wheels from him so maybe I can negotiate a better price. If you had someone else do the job do you mind telling me what...

    what to do?

    Vordak, I pretty much agree with your statement "Just because ONE board member is willing to spend thousands of $$$ to make his RT handle like a Ferrari doesn't mean the rest of us need or have to." This is the one that gives me pause "The RT is fine out of the box." I'll agree that "most"...

    what to do?

    Huge inprovement BigDon. It doesn't bounce like a basketball now. New rear shock and air system repair are responsible for the better ride. I'm gonna use one of my old race car tricks and string the front end to see where the toe in/toe out is set. I can't believe the allowable tolerance for toe...

    Where do I find an explanation for Fault codes? Got code P0524

    Got it back Saturday. Runs fine. Service rep couldn't give me a specific reason for the problem. He said they thought it was corrosion on some connection? I'm not happy about that but what can I do? I've ridden it in the rain and washed it a couple of times, should I not do that? I sure hope...

    Front trunk issues

    Before you get too envolved in adjusting or replacing the latch spend a little time working a good grease into the latch mechanism. I used a little bit pumped out of my grease gun on my finger and worked it in everwhere I could, then wiped the excess off. Works perfect now, just close it, put...

    Where do I find an explanation for Fault codes? Got code P0524

    Yep, back to the shop it goes! I called the dealer service desk and told him what was happening. First words out of his mouth "that sucks". I just picked it up Saturday after being in the shop for 17 days. In all fairness they did a good job, riding it home Saturday I finally got the same...

    Where do I find an explanation for Fault codes? Got code P0524

    Thanks Lamont, I actually found the low oil pressure fault (PO524) but on the screen it also showed an EDB fault. I can't find what EDB is, but on page 151 of the owners manual under EDB fault is says it's a VSS malfunction and tells you to take it to the nearest dealer. Do I have two...

    Where do I find an explanation for Fault codes? Got code P0524

    I have a fault code. Where do I find the explanation for them? I have an EDB fault, code P0524. Anybody have any ideas? I do have the CD shop manual. Thanks Dwight

    Purchasing a new RTS

    Hey Threewheels, How did you get your dealer to do the alignment? Did he do it as a warranty repair? Although quite a bit of my handling problems went away with replacement of the rear shock, air bag, and air manifold with assorted fittings I still think it needs an alignment. How do I convince...

    Front tire diameter?

    Anyone know what the diameter of the front tires (RT-S) is? I've been looking at tires of the same size (165/65R14) and would like to be able to compare diameter. Thanks Dwight

    Hood Warped - NOT

    Barbwire, Can you tell me any more about the spacers that you used on the front wheels? We wanted them for our RT but the shop guys said they wouldn't fit because of the offset. Maybe the phone number of the shop that installed them for you? Thanks Dwight
