• 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.

    Starting issue? (as in nada, nothing, all quiet)

    We had to replace a DESS module and ignition switch on a Spyder that wouldn't start. One way to tell if it is the DESS the unit needs to be hooked up to the dealer BUDS diagnostic software. The DESS functions through the shutoff switch. On the monitoring screen The tech will need to toggle the...

    Heat-sink paste

    Use the heat sink paste. Your sparkplugs will love you for it. It will help your sparkplugs last longer. Its about dispersing the heat. A tube will last a life time. BRP thinks its important enough to make it part of the mandatory tools to be a dealer.

    Squeeky brakes

    Go get a bottle of CRC anti brake squeal at the auto parts store and apply to the rear of the pads. Let the CRC dry on the pads before you reinstall them. The squeal will be history. BRP has come out with a different compound brake pad but the trade off is they will not last as long.

    Dealers Should Network

    Dealers have no excuse for not reading the service bulletins! BRP sends bulletins via the dealer BOSSWEB network and follows that up with a paper bulletin to put into a binder that is sent to the dealer new EVERY YEAR.

By being aware of problems we will be able to diagnose service issues with the Spyder and have the units returned back to customers with minimal down time. I also look to the site for after market trends. BEST...

    Phanton black limited edition Spyder

    Let the factory do the labor of putting the accessories on. You are not getting a break on the accessories, but the savings is in the labor you would pay a dealer to put them on. Yes I know a lot of you guys have the tools to do the job yourself. It wouldn't be a savings for you just a time...
