On our 2014 RTS, those posts and the plastic side panel are keyed in proper alignment when installed correctly.

Honestly Neal, probably best to call Lamonster Garage and have them explain it to you since you got it there.
Some folks have reported, and not sure how it happens, on these newer Spyder RT series, the plastic becomes dislodged and suffers damage from the tire.
No specifics, on what tire or size. Simply...
As the title mentions, SENA SM10.
Our SM10 still functions but the plastic case is doing the gooey, sticky, degradation.
Ideally someone has a SENA SM10 that blew up but the case is good.
Will...
Sledge, fingers crossed your health is doing well.
As for a battery, realize earlier Spyder with the V Twin do not utilize and alternator type charging system. That said, it seems the charging...
Tires.
While your choice of tire is not one I would consider, but quality tires are likely the single best upgrade and reasonable low cost compared to the other two you mentioned.
Tires, tires,...
My opinion varies from that of others. Always best with a shared gearbox design to have the oil completely cycled beyond just the engine. Ideally you rode the machine prior to draining. Doing so...
Since there is no free lunch, best to learn how to effectively clean those radiators, accomplish the task frequently, and if desired use the least obstructive secondary screen possible.
Years ago,...
When I reminisce about times gone by, being a kid racing motocross in the 70s was the best. Absolutely the best sport ever in my opinion.
Not a common second hand item that comes up for sale. I found ours a few years ago on EBay for a rippin deal. Only got two fronts. Actually was not after a rear, so that was awesome.
Will say,...
Interesting, I have seen updates noted for BUDS2, but do not recall seeing them for earlier models via aftermarket BUDS.
I was under the impression, for BUDS, all firmware and updates were only...
Yes, $500 could be nice, unless, as I suspect, you will forced to use that $500 on BRP items only, and not on say anything from the Parts Unlimited catalog.
Like an insurance company, very likely as...
Interesting topic and words.
It seems Apple Car Play for Spyders is for the immediate future, possibly forever, a no go from the oem.
As for adding fuel, ours is a 2014 RTS, and like Mike, the...
Seems Apple Car Play is essentially road kill for Granny Clampett.
Everyone should skip the warranty since that hedges the bet in favor of the house.
Getting a gift certificate for $500 is only...
During my recent exploits of water pump replacement on a 1330, I had concerns about entrapped air within the engine cooling jackets.
As best I learned, and certainly willing to be incorrect if...
Leave be, as is for now. Get eyes on several other Spyders, possibly even a new one on the dealers floor. Then compare.
Mr Bunson, the shimmy or darting you experience most often is on account of insufficient front wheel toe in. Under braking, the front suspension compresses. This induces toe out of the front...
If the brake pedal is firm, without a soft feel, and the brakes are not acceptable, your 23 is probably still under warranty. Get a qualified shop or another Spyder owner you trust to evaluate and...
If you suspect something is faulty, the task of nulling the two steering sensors is not difficult but does require BUDS or BUDS2 depending upon the year of the F3.
A sensor offset from nulled will...
Mr Hogiewolf, what you describe does sound familiar of a failing thermostat.
Having dealt with this myself only a couple months ago, I share these tests I did.
First verify no obstructions of...
Those of you upset with BRP/Can Am for not delivering, imagine how the tech from Apple is reacting, trying to clean up a mess he did not make.
Enjoy your Corvette.
If time and money is a...
Saw that, right around $18 per quart for the Spectro.
Out of curiosity, goofing off, I pulled up the Spectro website.
Not that I follow Spectro products within the moto industry, and I have not used Spectro products for decades, it was interesting that...
Truism, plus, the silicone grease does not swell or affect rubber parts.
If Albec finds motor oil cures his issue, that works for me. Worse case, the dipstick cap simply gets stuck again as the...
Absolutely fully grasp your intentions, and while my words chosen may be slightly a skew, I should rephrase to mention you cut a large hole in the bodywork, allowing the three inch item to protrude....
Why Spectro instead of Mobil 1 motorcycle oil?
Ron, my apologies if it upsets you that I blended two of your replies.
You sir are quite correct that referenced ambient temp, and also ambient pressure, are utilized by the engine management...
I relocated the ambient temp sensor on our 2014. Plan was more accurate temp readings.
Downside was the location inside the airbox was similar to the oem location readings, but it demonstrated...
Yes, been the oil of my choice since 2014 in our Spyder.
Essentially one of the best, if not the best readily available, reasonably priced motorcycle specific oils in 540rats blog.
Albec, you failed to state what lubricant you applied expecting it to ease the effort to remove or install.
I forget if the dipstick cap O ring is Viton or a silicone based material.
That said,...
