• 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.

    Limp mode = close to death encounter

    Double tree: give me a break you a idiot maybe your the reason BRP has a limp mode-- this was not an engine problem or coil or brake issue - it's was a blown brake light only 1 at that still had a good one - I'm not picking on BRP I'm expressing my experience - I ride my spider daily, and...

    Limp mode = close to death encounter

    You should never go into limp mode over a light bulb out - period! Even if they are all out --- matter a fact I don't see one issue where I'm doing 50 75 mph legally that I should be dropped to 35mph put the warning up like 99% of vehicles do/ and let the driver make a safe exit. Limp Mode...

    My solution for mounting my iPhone to my Spyder

    The magnetic option is very very handy - I put another magnet on my dash in truck and the phone just stays perfectly stuck vertically to dash - right where I can view it - also lets you hang it on anything magnetic - opens up a lot of options..... Cheers

    Rear fender supports

    Also they say the new ones for the 2008 are reinforced also - it's a updated part # - I did take them off give them to dealership and install them myself - dealer still get parts credit - When removing soak the nuts the day before - mine where a little seized - it does take quite a bit of time...

    My bet would be the spark plug wires - take plastic off and run it in the dark to see if any arcing - you also may want to let the computer auto tune by starting and let it run at idle for 5min then off then go for a ride to see if that helps -- good luck Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
