• 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.

    erasing preset stations on a Can-AM RT-S Radio

    Good luck with that. I have a 2013 RT LTD with the same problem. At some point I may disconnect my battery to see if that will erase all of the presets so that I can start over.

    Air Horn on Spyder RT Ltd.

    It's always good to read and study someone else's efforts. However, since the battery on the 2013 RT is located up front there isn't room to install the horn up front as GeoffCee did. No room for an additional fuse box for additional farkles either. I, as yet have not figured out my horn install...

    Lots of orphan wiring pigtails

    On my 2013 RT Limited, the plug you believe to be the fog light plug is for my front trunk light (2 connector plug). The other connector is, I believe, for fog light. If that is the case you'll have one on the right side also. On my RT the connector for the front 12v power plug is tied up behind...

    Cargo Carrier

    This can mount to a ball hitch or a 1 1/4" receiver. The weight limitation on an RT is 40 lbs., I think. That would include the carrier and cargo. This carrier weighs 16 lbs. You didn't mention which model you have but your manual should give you the weight limitation for the hitch...

    2013 RT Handling Problems

    UPDATE May 17 Finally I have a bike I may learn to enjoy. 2 solo rides totaling 140 miles have confirmed it's a totally different bike. I had two different dealers align my bike and no joy. Called BRP and opened a case file and then took my bike back to my original dealer and that did the...

    Riding Gear

    I like this jacket for summer/winter wear in Florida. http://tourmaster.com/product/Textile_Jackets/Intake_Air_Series_3_Jacket/368/3 For helmets, you need to narrow down whether you want half, 3/4 , full face or modular. I like Arai full face helmets but they are pricey. BRP has a new helmet...

    Normal I agree, it's normal on my 2013 RT Limited as per the manual.

    Securing jacket and helmet when stopped

    My XL Arai full face which does not have any external attachments will fit the right saddlebag. I have to place it on it's side facing the rear of the bike. My girlfriend's S Shoei fits facing the rear of the bike.

    Goldwing to Spyder ...

    As far as the ride goes I think you'll find it quite comfortable. No roughness as far as I'm concerned. Your wife may find it a little rougher because she will be over the back wheel. I test rode a couple of GW Trikes and had an experience similar to yours on the Tri-Glide.

    2013 RT Handling Problems

    Update... Since my last post I've had the opportunity to test ride two 2013 Spyders. One an RTS owned by a friend and the other a Limited identical to my Spyder. Both drove markedly better than mine. I have an appointment for an another alignment this Friday and will follow-up with a progress...

    Goldwing to Spyder ...

    I too am a former GL1800 rider. I really like my 2013 Black Current Limited. It is really a beautiful machine. However, I haven't gotten to the point it's a fun ride. I currently have 1200 miles on it so hopefully the fun starts soon. As others have said it is a totally different ride. If you've...
