• 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.

    Issue with rear hub????

    I've tried searches and haven't found anything so here goes. 2011 RTS SE5 with 28,000 miles Clutch was replaced 500 miles ago by a very qualified mechanic in Kississimee Florida. Clutch is working well but since gettin the bike back I've noticed the following: When I start it and put the bike...

    Question re: ultimate seats

    I have the ultimate seat on my RTS and the seat stays up fine for fueling. My wife and I also love the seat. It's tripled out time between stops.

    Premature clurch wear on 2011 RTS SE5

    Only BRP oil since I bought it. 2 oil changes. As far as a solenoid, I suspect not because the slipping also occurs without shifting. I mean if I'm going along in 4th at 6,000 rpm and give it gas, I can feel it slipping then as well. Anyway, I just spoke with the dealer and the job is nearly...

    Premature clurch wear on 2011 RTS SE5

    Well.......the spyder is in getting a new clutch. I bought my 2011 RT used in August with 18,000 miles. Now at 25,000 miles the clutch is slipping quite noticeably and all that's left to do now is pay the dealer lots of money ($1300.00) The dealer has all the necessary parts in stock and is...

    Learning "The Touch"

    Great to hear that you're putting miles on your new Spyder and enjoying it. You're certainly learning "The Touch" faster than I did. We're still loving our Spyder and using it a lot more than we ever used the 2 wheeler.

    Outside TEMPORARY STORAGE?

    Our Spyder is heading for Florida next week to spend the winter for the first time. Coming back the end of April. We have a small overhang about 10' X 6' that the Spyder will be under. I have a half cover so I'll start with that to see how it works. At least the seat and dash will be covered...

    Close calls?

    I'm very please with the lack of close calls on the Spyder compared to when I was on 2 wheels. My 2 wheelers always had driving lights and the headlight on high beam during the day but it didn't seem to make me visible to the cagers. With the Spyder I ride with the hight beams on as well as the...

    Trailering my RT

    I was 1 day away from buying a stinger trailer. The factory is an hour from where I live so I went to have a look and was intrigued because I was hoping to store it in my garage. The night before I was going to go and purchase the trailer I posted on a Facebook Spyder forum where we live...

    Potential Newbie with questions on basic 2016 RT compared to others

    You are feeling the same things I felt when I went from 2 wheels to a Spyder RT in August of this year. My wife could feel it as well as a passenger. 1. I can't really comment on the floorboards. Mine has the footpegs and probably because I rode Goldwings I'm used to the footpegs. I'd still like...

    Right front tire wearing on inside

    Update on front tire wear So I took bike into the dealer on Wednesday. Visually they agreed that it looked like an alignment issue without me offering an opinion. They also agreed to just leave the front tires where they are and not rotating them. Just picked up bike from the dealer. Alignment...

    RT Sidecase rack?

    It's surprising that nobody has come up with something like this. Seems to make sense even for light items. Then of course they could invent a custom made bags for the carrier and custom straps to secure the bag.

    205/60/15 on rear of RT

    Thanks, you just reminded me. His was a 2014 base RT. I asked him how much air pressure he had in the rear suspension and he said that he had no idea. His wife is pretty small (wasn't sure how to be politically correct on that one) :opps:

    205/60/15 on rear of RT

    I guess the main thing I worry about with the 215 is the clearance with the larger diameter. I followed a couple for a whole day on a spyder and every time they went over a bump or railway tracks, something sounded like it was bottoming out. When the group stopped for a break, I didn't want to...

    205/60/15 on rear of RT

    Just wondering if anyone has tried a 205/60/15 on the back of their Spyder. I know it's narrower than the stock tire but percentage wise it's actually a closer fit than the 215/60/15 according to the comparison chart from 1010 tires. I'm asking because the 215 is so much taller than stock and...

    Right front tire wearing on inside

    Yep, I agree about the bandaid thing. I have no intention of rotating the tires. I'll let the dealer tell me what they think is causing the tire wear but I think most of us agree that it looks like an alignment should cure the cause. As far as replacing the tires, I'll wait and see how it goes...

    Right front tire wearing on inside

    24,000 miles on the Spyder. It's thanksgiving here in Canada so the dealer is closed today but I'll take it in tomorrow and have them look at it. I'm one of the lucky ones. A good dealer 6 miles from home. Hopefully it's just an alignment issue. Certainly looks like it but we'll see.
