• 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.

    Total Loss of Engine Power at 65 MPH on Busy Freeway, All My Fault! Kill Switch...

    I have mine installed on the left side as well. I've always wondered how you use the throttle and grab a drink while moving if the holder is installed on the right. Do you reach across your body with your left hand to grab the bottle and then return it the same way? Or, do you release the...

    Anyone have a video or links on Freedom Trailer suspension?

    I searched parts on the BRP website and found some information. I also did a quick search on google with no results. I am sure you can take your trailer to any place that repairs trailers and they'll be able to help you. This is the information from BRP parts:

    Do the 2023/24 RT Speakers sound good & loud enough?

    They're good enough for me. You are posting quite a few questions to help you decide on purchasing a Sea to Sky, which is a good idea. Why not make a list of your questions and put them in one thread so they can be answered in a single response?

    2024 Spyder issues make me wonder if I should buy yet?

    I believe I read 2 yr. warranty with road assistance, which you can add up to 3 additional years. Check the BRP web page for confirmation. Search this site for information on purchasing additional years. I currently ride a 2022 RTL, previously a 2014 and a 2012 RTL. As far as issues: on both...

    2024 RT new issue - music going silent once the bike starts!!

    I have a 2022 RTL, purchased almost 1 year ago. I had similar problems as Maplehawk describes and through much trial and error, reading on here and watching videos, I finally found a system that works for me. Hope it works for others. For the volume issue make sure the volume on the phone is...

    How do I put my RT Ltd into Neutral and shut off parking brake alarm?

    I do as Fatboy describes, all the time, especially when checking rear tire pressure to get the valve stem in a reachable position. Remember, when you roll your Spyder to where you want, engage the parking brake before leaving the machine (whether the key is in the on or off position). Also...

    Do Waterless Washes work, or scratch the paint? eg. Buglside, etc.

    I live in an apartment and access to washing by hand is limited. I have been using Maguires Ultimate Waterless Wash and Wax for several years and have great results. First, I use a feather duster to get the light dust, then a swifter duster cloth or 2, then the waterless wash. I apply the wash...

    Found Helmets cheaper in Germany; delivered to Arizona in 3 days!

    This on the NHTSA site, which agrees with JamesLaz: While all motorcycle helmets sold in the United States are required to meet the federal standard and have the DOT certification label, there are online and brick-and-mortar retailers who sell what are known as “novelty helmets” that do not meet...

    Has anyone with a '21+ Spyder got a Baja Ron anti sway bar? Worth it?

    I had the sway bar on my 2014 RTL. I upgraded to a 2022 RTL in April of 2023 and do not need the sway bar, she holds the road like glue.

    Anyone have a link to Full Warranty? Does cold weather riding void warranty?

    I ride all year round and have never had a warranty issue (I've only had to use the warranty about 4 times over 12 years on 3 different year RT's). I was never asked "Did you ride in cold weather?"
