• 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.

    Dirt Roads

    Last summer I rode a "Hiway" in Saskatchewan. The entire road was gravel, fairly loose. It was 35 km before I could take an exit so my RS was slippin' and sliding on the loose stone at about 80 km hour (50mph). The nanny kept sensing a "slip" and eventually I had to stop at the side of the road...

    Higher seat height?

    I am not sure how much more height you need Steve. I have a left leg prosthetic and because of the socket lip, I use an Airhawk Seat cushion. They are pricey (~$200), but work great, for me anyway. It is recomended to put the least amount of air into them, adjusting for comfort. If you add...

    FINALLY - She's HOME and she's BEAUTIFUL

    Well, it seemed like it was a L-O-N-G time coming. I ordered my "Baby Blue" in October and I brought her home yesterday. What a dream machine. I left my '08 RS at the dealership and rode my new baby home...... I have to say what a nice feeling. Here's to many new kilometers (or miles, when I...

    And I Gave Up A Perfectly Good Goldwing for This

    So true about a good mechanic I have the best mechanic in Canada, if not Nort America. Scott at Snow City is the place you want to go. I had a '08 GS and he kept it in tip top order, even through warranty and recall issues. I made sure the new RT-S would be set up by the "pro".poking forward...

    New member with a left leg prosthesis question

    Left AKA firstly :welcome: I am an above knee (left) amputee I had an RS with the SE5, 2008. What a great way for me to be back on the "bike" I tried a floorboard and my leg was not long enough to "Plant" onto the board so it kind of just hung there with no support. I have a C-Leg and thought...

    GPS Harness

    Thanks! Thanks guys, I thought it might be the same, but this is what makes this Forum so GREAT. Looks like when I shop around for a a new GPS, it will have to be the 660 Zumo. :). Seems to be in around the $650 - $700 range. I know it will get a lot of use, so not too worried about getting my...

    GPS Harness

    Does anyone know if the GPS Support & Harness supplied by BRP supports any other Garmin Models? I am thinking it might work for both the Zumo 550 and 665 as well as the 660 that it is advertised to support. Would that be a valid assumption?

    Thanks Carlo

    Just a quick aside: I rode from Toronto to Tucson and on to Pheonix earlier in the year and dropped by the Las Cruces Spyder dealer for more a "social visit" than anything else. They were Super People. I am not sure about the quality of service, becaue I didn't have any work done, but if the...
