• 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.

    what to do?

    Actually I think BigDon got it right! I can compare it to conventional trikes, having ridden nearly 70K miles on GL1800/Hannigan, HD Ultra/CSC, and a TriGlide. Because our RT-S is still in the shop I've been riding my HD/CSC. There is absolutely no contest when riding our favorite set of...

    Severe Passenger Microphone Feedback!!

    I don't know if this is the same thing you're talking about but I have had some "motor noise" in my J&M's. It has been intermitent but seems to correspond to motor rpm. My J&M's are the "Elite" and were ordered specifically for the RT-S. One of the cures on my Wing for intercom problems was to...

    Rear Suspension

    BodymanPainter, I'm afraid that's going to happen to me also. I'm still waiting for them to repair the air system, supposed to be done by this Wednesday. Service guy tells me the reason the shock went out was because my air system wasn't working. According to him the air bag is used as a...

    what to do?

    Based on my problems, I'd wait for the 2011. However most people aren't having the problems that I'm having. I have to say the dealer has been pretty good about fixing things, it's in the shop now waiting on parts for the air system. So far it's been down slightly over 3 weeks waiting on...

    WHAT IS UP WITH KEWL METAL?

    I just got a notice from UPS that my Elka's will be delivered on the 29th. I ordered them from KewlMetal a bit over 2 weeks ago. Elka wants 1 week to build them so I'm pretty happy with them. Also talked with Matt quite abit about the shocks, pretty helpfull guy. Don't have any other experience...

    Is This Normal Hissing?

    We had never heard ours, but weren't too worried because both of us wear hearing aids. Turns out, while we had it in the shop for an oil change (and to check out the rear shock) they found out that our air system didn't work. I just talked to them on the phone to see if I could pick up the...

    Silver RT Powder Coated

    Did you have the front wheels coated black? BRP has a set like that for the standard Spyders but doesn't offer them for the RT-S. We really like the look of those wheels! Dwight

    Two Pounds of Pressure Less, and WOW

    I don't understand why front tire pressure should be so sensitive to handling. However, when I first complained about the "twitchiness" (?) everyone reccommened more air, so I tried 20psi. If anything this made it worse, before we left for OK/AR last week I lowered it to 17. This seems to have...

    unknown Flashing Indicator Lamp

    I'm pretty sure the handlebars are a DPS fault. DPS = Digital Power Steeering. I got the handlebars, check engine, limp home mode, it turned out to be a faulty "Yaw Sensor". Replaced under warranty, after much discussion between shop tech and BRP. No further problems with that. Dwight

    Soft Bag Inserts

    So Tom, what size works best for the Spyders? These look like they would work for us. Thanks Dwight

    Rear Suspension

    I took our RT-S in Saturday for an oil change and to have the service tech check out my rear shock. He road it into the service bay and said he would order me a new shock because it was very obvious that it wasn't working. I was happy! No arguments about it. About an hour later he said it was...

    RT Steering/Handling - BIG Improvement

    Glad to hear that Matt, my Elka's are processing right now. Should have them soon. Ditto on the sway bar. I'm going to take mine to the dealers soon to check out the rear shock, I don't think it has any dappening at all, found a suspicious oil spot under it and couldn't find any leaks. Thinkin...

    Rear Shock Absorber

    SC92 Did you ever notice a oil spot on the floor? I had one, couldn't find where it came from. Finally decided maybe the radiator overflow had burped some anti-freeze out. Hadn't thought any more about it until I read your post. I just went out and jumped up and down on the passenger board with...

    Intercom/music

    Nope, nothing wrong with my headsets. I just haven't got them installed in the other helmet. They are J & M. The instructions said if you installed them in an HJC helmet that you would have to enlarge the ear pockets a "little" bit. It took me nearly 3 hours of carving with a dremel kit to get...

    Intercom/music

    Thanks Scotty, I haven't been to the setup screen yet, dealer took care of most of the things I needed. That will take care of the speakers, does the setup screen also have the info on the intercom? I know its voice activated, is there a place to adjust the sensitivity of the mikes? Any news...

    Intercom/music

    I've got all of my communications stuff set up except for 1 headset. I can't find any info in the owners manual about how the intercom works. Anybody know where I can find this info? Also when I play the radio it plays in the helmet and also on the regular speakers. Is there any way I can shut...

    Rear Shock Absorber

    Pardon my ignorance, but what is a control valve and what is it's function? The way my RT-S rear shock bounce's leads me to believe it has no dampening at all. I'm considering ordering an Elka shock for it. Dwight

    RECC - blue?

    I wish mine would stay blue all of the time. Can't hardly read time or temperature in the daylight but its easy to see at night. Same goes for my turn signal indicators, see them good at night but barely visible durling the day. Dwight
