• 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.

    WARNING -SPYDER RS SE5 2012 WARNING

    I agree, which is why I asked the question. I assume you knew that though. I don't think the post was legit. Just my guess...;)

    WARNING -SPYDER RS SE5 2012 WARNING

    4th gear at 45 mph? Don't know what Spyder you have. You have not provided enough information for anyone to respond to, and I do not think anyone will make a phone call. You have made one post and leave a phone number. If I call will I win a prize or get a free vacation to Florida if look...

    Normal Behavior??

    The disorder is quite common and is called D.O.M.S. Short for Dreaming Of My Spyder. It has several symptoms, and has only one cure.;)

    Spyderpops Strike Two

    Each to their own regarding what kind of inspection they do; or whether they do one at all. I am not saying you'll catch everything when doing one, but certainly you can see the obvious. Just look at the endless threads about body panels not fastened; or uneven tire pressure, and on and on...

    Spyderpops Strike Two

    I can understand anyone's frustration if they have a problem with a product. However, what I cannot understand is someone riding something like a Spyder without inspecting it more often -- like every time you ride it. Seriously, if you would have done something as simple as checking your...

    Check Engine light and dealer says not to worry?

    This is included in the Do's and Do Not's... Clarification on the P0127 and P0217 code messages: (From Steve with BRP customer care) Some have experienced the P0127 and/or P0217 codes on their Spyders so we'd like to provide additional information on what they mean. The following is the link to...

    2014 RT Road Vibration

    All of the above is good advice; however, even with the 1330 engine, you might consider downshifting when on hills rather than remaining in the same gear (especially with cruise control engaged). Even after adjusting the belt, and adding a tensioner, you could still have some belt vibration...

    Front end noise I can't figure out

    It can be many things to include the front bearings on the motor. The are located on the front left side. Do not know anything about what your ride is or miles and etc... but be sure to include an inspection of those bearings -- just to be sure. There are reports of a few engines having...

    Now this is Nifty!!!

    Hauling a Spyder backwards is scary thought, and hauling one with a cover is yet another. :yikes: Good luck... let us know how that worked out...;)

    2015 lineup rumors?

    Well, this thread has turned sour. You have people saying others do not know how to ride their Spyders because they would like to see some advances in technology; while others are getting their panties twisted in a knot just because someone would like an electric Spyder, or one that leans...

    2015 lineup rumors?

    The width of the Piaggio is not an indication of the limit of the technology. There is a video on this thread using the same lean technology on a wider front-end (nearly the Spyder width); so I am not sure what you cannot see. ;) It isn't rocket science we are speaking of. It is just a...

    oil level affecting shifting?

    Sounds like your habits of manual shifting could be partly to blame. As the manual states, do not roll-off the throttle when shifting, despite those stating otherwise. I used to roll-off out of habit, but learned quickly the shifts are much improved when holding it steady. So... the...

    2015 lineup rumors?

    I caught that statement also; but to some degree it is true. Spyders are not motorcycles, not even close. They are more like ATV's than a motorcycle. I, personally, do not even like when someone refers to them as a "bike". If anything, call it a trike. However, I would like to see the...
