• 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.

    BRP customer service?

    Have you ever owned a BMW or worse yet a Harley? When certain parts go south on a Beemer you can wait until you are old and gray before replacements make it in from Germany. H-D can be just as bad unless you have a current MY bike and if it's authorized they will pull a part from the assembly...

    First Trip on Betty White

    Great question, but no easy answer. Did you ride anything like a motorcycle before getting the Spyder? If not you may have to let your neck muscles adjust to wearing a helmet. It can take a while for the muscles to get used to the helmet so don't expect overnite results. It is also dependent...

    2019 upgrade option?

    I realize it may sound foolish, but when I saw the picture in the first post it made me think wouldn't it be cool if we had the ability to just jump on the Spyder and go "Up There!" I know, I know....rather juvenile and to some stupid, but perhaps some day we may be able to do just such a...

    Still waiting for a major change to the RT

    Man oh man! You guys are hard to please. First off, the real money is in accessorizing a vehicle. Remove "farkles" like Harley has done and then charge the crap out the customer to put the same stuff on the bike that was once "standard". Oh, and when Harley did this little slight of hand...

    First 1000mi

    Great write up on your 1000 mile adventure. To tell the truth I was almost ready to sign on the dotted line for a new RT last Thursday, but just couldn't pull the pin based on what they were going to give me for my current BMW. I find your assessment very informative and worthwhile. It gives...

    Spyder is REALLY different - tried test ride, barely made it out of the dealer's lot

    Odd, I saw no bullying or intimidation in his post. In order to intimidate there most usually is a threat of some sort which there was none of. Perhaps the implication was not to give up one something that will most likely be quite enjoyable if he keeps at it. touchy-feely times we live in...

    1330 Performance Upgrades

    Okay Spyder People, where are we on the performance upgrades that have been bantered about in this thread? I am now 67 years old. I ride a BMW K1600 GTL two wheeler. Horsepower rating is about 160ish. I am on my 4th K1600 now and love the bike, but in all honesty I pretty much baby the thing...

    2015 Colors Non Spyder owner here......Hasn't anyone told BRP that orange and black have already been used by a somewhat famous two name motorcycle company? All kidding aside , I have been thinking about buying a new Cam Am and I was waiting to see what the 2015 release would bring...

    2013 RT Fire, 26 July 2014

    Funny how responsible people can sound completely unresponsible some times. If there is a problem with the 2013's then you have to find out EXACTLY what the problem is before you will go anywhere in court. Once the cat has been let out of the bag by threatening lawsuits and such you are...

    Spyders Underpowered?

    I take it you were never a cop and that you never helped an M.E. or coroner clean up after a bad motorcycle crash. You should give it a try sometime perhaps you would change your mind after you placed all the "remains" into plastic bags. By the way, those remains are all evidence and must be...

    brp group ride from Silverton to Ouray,finally got one of the videos up

    Wow, very interesting and very dumb if this is real. And you rode like this for what reason? You better hope some Colorado State Patrol Officer doesn't see this and decides to pursue charges. It doesn't take a genius to understand that all an officer would have to do is compare segments of...

    WARNING -SPYDER RS SE5 2012 WARNING

    I don't own a Spyder...yet, but I have had a couple out for rides and I have to admit they are truly fun machines to be on. I currently own a BMW K1600 GTL and while it is a great motorcycle in it's own right, it does have some faults I don't care for. One fault is that it doesn't like to be...

    Dealership said No

    The dealership guys are just trying to avoid a potential problem with the customer supplied parts. They obviously must have enough customer service work waiting in the wings that they don't need anymore work i.e. income. I would check at a few more dealers. Most will install anything you want...

    Stopped by Sheriff Deputy

    Sadly for you, in my area you would me probaly getting a ticket for that lamp setup if you were on the street with it and the LEO wouldn't be a P****Y for citing you. You can't go running down the a public highway looking like a Christmas tree. While some may like to think they can install any...
