    Default New RTS and trailer

    Thank you all for your input on the RT, it made my decision so much easier to purchase a Spyder rather than a goldwing trike. The dealer had said before that the lead time of an RTS would be about a month. So yesterday my wife and I went to put a deposit down, suprise we can pickup the spyder and trailer on Tuesday. dltang and bjt looking forward to meeting both of ya seeing we are in the same area. Thanks again

    Default Delivered on Tue

    Got the bike on tue, took it for a test drive and the odometer now reads 122000 miles, darn good test drive. The service manager said that they had 2 new deliveries where the spedo cluster was bad and already notified BRP. I can deal with that, got it home opened the frunk, put my helmet inside and now it won't open again Hope that this is not what I can expect from now on. Going back to the dealer on Fri. Enjoyed riding so far.

    I had the same issue with my frunk, It is possible to press to hard on the high dollar plastic and over rotate the latch. I simply went for another ride, the plastic flexed enough that the latch would then release. You might get as lucky?

    If it is the front trunk, have someone press down on the trunk while you release the latch. Then have the dealer adjust the latch mechanism. I'm assuming you are talking release with the key. Don't forget to push down as you turn, BTW, and go the right direction. If you are speaking of the electronic release button, the engine must be running.

    If you are talking the rear trunk, wiggling the key sometimes helps. Spray in some Lock-Ez when you get done, the locks are stiff from the factory, and lubricate the latches with a tiny bit of white lithium grease, or something similar. It helps. Don't use WD-40 in the locks...ever! Hope you find a magic bullet somewhere in this miscellaneous wisdom.

    welcome & congrats medic 1. Okay, by your handle I have to wonder if you and I are in the same business. I work for Stat EMS. We will definitely have to have a get together and meet up. Hope you are enjoying your spyder, we have had ours for over 2 years now and a lot of miles and good time and good friends.
