• 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.

    To Steve (BRPcare) about DESS issues

    I also sent the other DESS thread to them also. Steve at BRP CARE says they always monitor their e-mail. So if that is true, they have been notified of our concerns.

    To Steve (BRPcare) about DESS issues

    The key phrase here is " it is possible", translated " we don't know":dontknow:. So let's make it possible for the dealers to shut down this system until you do know.:banghead::banghead: There's no liability here, it a security system, The owner signs a waiver stating that this is being done at...

    Two questions

    And it's not just Spyders, it's the same with all the big touring bikes today. Other than plug a tire you ain't fixing nothing. Electronics, electrioncs, electronics, it has infested them all. Plus just about everything has a huge amount of Tupperware ware that you have to take off to get to...

    To Steve (BRPcare) about DESS issues

    Time to move on? BRP's lack of response to these problems has me thinking maybe it's time to move on back to Honda. I really like my Spyder, but the concern of being left beside the road is very unnerving. And BRP just does not seem to care. 500.00 dollars for a tow home- that's total BS! BRP...

    DESS Key code again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Is this D.E.S.S. System just for security reasons? Or what else does it do? The second part of your post is why I thought of the credit card holder for the second key. Like I said it hasn't happened to me yet, but for 10 bucks why not be a little pro-active?

    DESS Key code again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    What about carrying your extra key in a credit card signal blocking pouch? It will keep the signal of the extra key blocked so it should not confuse the computer. Just an idea. I think I will try it. Bed, Bath, and Beyond has them for 10 bucks. Worth a try...

    test ride on a 2014 rt spyder

    My wife had the opposite reaction to the passenger seat on our 2014 RTS. She thought it was as comfortable as our last Goldwing. As for the twitchy handling, takes about 500 miles to get comfortable, 1000 miles to get more comfortable, 1500 miles to say Whoo-Hoo this is...

    What is your highway "sweet spot" speed

    60-65 on freeways. 40-45- on back roads for hours on end. Low and slow on the back roads is my favorite kind of riding.:ohyea:

    Saddlebags Install Photos

    Nice looking bags! They look good on the bike. Waterproof, big enough to be useful, and around 350.00 to boot. A lot better IMO than those 2000.00 dollar Corbin ones.

    Can I ask how many miles you got on your 2014 so far?

    Well, seeing how Goldwings last forever, this could be considered a dual purpose bike.:yikes:

    Do not like the looks of the frunk, but Goldwing reliability OH MAN! I love my Spyder looks and ride. But do worry about being left side the road with all the electrical problems. D.E.S.S. Etc. anyways B.R.P. Better get these things figured out soon, cause both Honda and Yamaha have a reverse...

    Syder's 10th anniversary

    Here in New York State we have what's called Enhanced Drivers License. We can cross into Canada, Mexico, and some of the Caribbean Islands. Costs fifty bucks more than a regular license, but no need to carry a Passport.:yes:
