• 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.

    2024 will not start after long ride then parked for 1 hr - Anyone else? What fix?

    Yeah. They call it the Bleed Valve. It’s that solenoid valve between the charcoal canister and engine. It’s been called the Purge Valve in the US vocabulary, regarding the Evaporative Emission Control System, as long as I can remember. Because, that’s what it does - uses engine vacuum to suck...

    2024 will not start after long ride then parked for 1 hr - Anyone else? What fix?

    Well, I didn't interpret this as a fail to crank issue, I interpreted this as a "cranks fine but fails to start and run" issue. So, for the OP, maybe you can clarify this. But, as long as I'm here, if we re-define this, to not just as a hot start problem, but as a HEAT SOAK starting problem...

    Spyder Not Starting, but starter works when terminals jumped - Where do I go from here?

    If you have pressed the Mode Button in order to get past the Safety Card Screen to the Main Screen, and you have your foot firmly on the brake, you also need the Kill Switch in Run for it to crank. Kill Switch not in Run prevents cranking. PS. And if a SM5, pull in clutch and shift to Neutral.

    Any ideas where to look for whatever this is with my 2016 RT's Power steering???

    If you’re concerned about the DPS coming and going, and affecting your steering, then pull that fuse. The DPS motor can’t get power then, and you’ll be strictly manual. Any twitchiness after that is just you, or some other issue having nothing to do with DPS after all. Try it just around the...

    Any ideas where to look for whatever this is with my 2016 RT's Power steering???

    Without BUDS, there's not a whole lot that you can do at home to find and correct the root cause, but there are some things you can check that will give you an idea of which way this is going to go. For example, if you have a typical, finished concrete garage floor, go out to the bike, get on...

    I have a dead 2023 RT, no electrics except lights - any thoughts?

    See pic. Do your headlights work - Low and Hi Beams? It might be because you had done some relay swapping and what-not. Try to put everything back the way it was, make sure all relays and fuses are seated, and make sure all the fuses are OK again. Tidy up inside both of those fuse boxes.

    2021 RT Limited - is this the latest Head Unit Firmware?

    No, you don't have a Bluetooth problem, and in this case, BRP is correct. It's a common misconception so don't feel bad. In a nutshell: BRP CONNECT is the name given to the networking technology that they use to “connect” the phone to the bike. Hence the name. BRP GO is the name of the App...

    2021 RT Limited - is this the latest Head Unit Firmware?

    I asked AI, and it said that 50.21 was the latest for the cluster. Because you have that already, I think that it’s safe to think, that at some point in its past, your bike was at a dealer and received all the latest updates, and that there is no reason to question the rest, as that would have...

    Exclamation Mark and Fault Code P210A on a 2023 S2S - Any ideas?

    Not trying to be a wise guy or anything, but the code for Suspension Fault is C210A. Just a coincidence? Maybe look at the code again. It is triggered by the suspension taking too long to reach the correct height. Excellent explanation by Sage. Here's a photo of the part that he was talking...

    Exclamation Mark and Fault Code P210A on a 2023 S2S - Any ideas?

    Well, I fired up BUDS2 and opened a 2023 file, and searched the Fault Code database. I found no listing for a P210R. There is a section of P210's that relate to your Throttle Body, but none ending in "R". So, would you please double check that code again. Merry Christmas.

    Can anyone tell me how to remove the front seat and disconnect the seat heat? How can I get to that seat heat plug?

    Mine was like that when I went to swap seats. It took about 5 minutes, but I was finally able to wrangle the connector back up out of that opening. It had to be manipulated into the right position and angle. Kicked my butt for awhile. See what you can do. Keep at it. Good luck.

    I have a dead 2023 RT, no electrics except lights - any thoughts?

    To answer Peter's question - Yes, every Spyder has a fusible link. HOWEVER, it's located in the charging circuit electrical line between the alternator/magneto and the battery. It's not between the battery and the fuse boxes. So, in this case, it is not a player. For the OP, You stated that you...

    Screeching sound from right side engine bay of 2013 RT - any thoughts on cause, fix?

    Well, David. I suppose that the good news is that you don't have a Low Oil Pressure Warning Light on. But, that only deepens the mystery. Especially because it is so RPM sensitive - that's a bit weird. Would it be a metal-on-metal noise, or maybe some weird acoustic noise in your intake -...

    2019 RT Ltd - won't shift into 1st - FIXED - reverse bracket was bent

    Well then, looks like your smoking gun is the bent bracket for the reverse interlock. On that bracket is a little solenoid that is connected to the interlock lever by a small cable. Normally, when you push the R button, the solenoid energizes and pulls the lever to the rear. It must be bent to...

    2019 RT Ltd - won't shift into 1st - FIXED - reverse bracket was bent

    If you've bent the bracket to the point that the reverse interlock lever has been pulled into the deployed position, (pulled to the rear) it will prevent shifting into first, also. See pic. It's a mechanical interlock inside the gearbox. So, jack it up safely, crawl under there and see what's...

    Screeching sound from right side engine bay of 2013 RT - any thoughts on cause, fix?

    Thoughts? Yes, and they're all expensive. But first, when you say “when the throttle is off”, you mean with the engine running at idle? When you raise RPM just a bit, are you saying that the noise immediately disappears? Just asking if that’s what you meant and if that is significant. Plus, do...

    Is anyone out there Ryding with a Pacemaker?

    Hey David. My wife has been riding with a pacemaker for 4 years. From a health standpoint, you'll be at less risk when operating a vehicle than you are now. That’s the point, right? If your question is about the pacemaker itself? Your Dr. should go over what activities to avoid relating to EMFs...

    What year RT or F3 rear shock will fit my '15 RS

    +1 with racoon. Your rear suspension is a system, designed around the GVW of the Spyder and whether or not the spring works in conjunction with an air spring (air bag) or stands alone. An RT or F3 rear suspension won’t be what you want. You can replace your shock separately from the spring, ie...

    Can I Add cruise control to a 2014 RS SM5 by just replacing the RH Hand grip/Control module?

    Folks in this thread talked of doing this on both a 2015 and 2013, so looks good for you. And if I’m reading it right, you’ll just need the sliding control button and that half of the outer shell. Your current right hand module has the guts already inside...
