I've had my backseater fall asleep on my RT and my old Gold Wing 1800 which I used to ride. I guess both are too comfortable and too much fresh air.
You can also buy the square and flat connectors online and make one yourself any length.
Do some searching here. If I can find it, there was a message years ago about replacing the strut with a 40# rated one from an auto parts store. I had to do the same on my 2016 RT when I replaced the...
Kumhos are car tires.
I have the GoPro Session. It is mounted on a bracket behind the windshield. It is pre-configured and activated by pressing the top button to turn on and off. For me, it's an easy solution for video...
I have a 2016 RT and a Lumina type box shaped trailer vs the 622 or Freedom, could not find either in my bike's color. ;)
The cost was better also. We have made a few long trips and you can't tell...
I have this tire on the rear on my RTS and Q-5s on the front. The Kumho has done well, dry and wet. Ran into a day long rain storm coming back from Branson and never a traction issue even at highway...
I have an older model I bought off a seller but it's great for us. Used it on two long trips and as others said, didn't even know it was there. Had to keep checking the mirrors to be sure. ;)

I get to use the KILL switch more often than I want. My backseater usually hits it when she grabs the handlebars getting on the Spyder. :shocked:
spyder01: Thanks for the info on changing the sensor. I'll give it a try after I find which panels to take off to do an oil change. :read:
Dealer did the last 2 oil changes.
Thanks again.

Got the dreaded Limp Mode on the way home yesterday on a 2016 RT-S. Code was P0340. Rumor has it that the sensor is fairly easy to replace. I'm willing to give it a try since my dealer is 35 miles...
I also have the Nuvi 2589LMT. I now use the Garmin DriveSmart 55 with backup camera. The camera is easier on the neck, works pretty good too. It has lines just like the car cameras. If it fails, back...
I carry the trailer spare tire under the tongue. I use what looks like a big "U" bolt that goes through the lug holes. I mounted it as far back as I could almost to the box.
Once you get it...
It's an old canal town now a city. It has some interesting shops. Clay's Park is near by. We even have a running horse drawn canal boat and canal boat rides on weekends.
Canal Fulton area
I had a bead pad for awhile, it was the plastic beads. No cover came with mine though. Made a quick turn onto a side road and almost slid off my seat. Maybe the wooden ones are not as slick. Now use...
In our club, I ride as the tail gunner. Road Captain leading with radio and me in the back also with radio.
I also have back issues but I'm the driver. I have the Ultimate Seat and I also use the Airhawk. The key is the air pressure in the Airhawk. I had to play with it on mine to get a more comfortable...
I have a 2016 RTS SE6 and it whines at 20 and 40 mph. Gear independent. Still don't why.

BRP hitch and wiring. I got the hitch at a good price and my dealer installed the wiring. They have been working great.
Cargo blanket over everything sounds like a good option. How about a weighted blanket for more pressure?
I have a GoPro hero 5 session mounted center behind the windshield, Works good and is stable.
I have the Kumho on my RT. I like and it handled great on a long ride in heavy rain at highway speeds. Will go with it again when this one wears out.
True. But the Spyder was in storage down the street. Out of sight, out of mind for too long.

My fog light switch went bad over the winter . It was in the ON position in storage and it stopped rocking. I left ON this year and replaced it a few months ago after finding a new one.
...
Just popped out the fog light switch alone. It came out pretty easy with no damage to the switch panel.
Just changed my fog light switch on my RT. It was an easy fix. Press in the tabs on each side of the switch with a thin device and pull it out gently. When you see the wires, wrap a string(shoe...
OP:
How about backing up on a ramp behind the rear wheel and then jack up the front and add ramps under the front wheels.??
I did all this also: wet footprint, +4psi, temp, etc. I guess I was looking for defined benchmarks to look for. I know the ride will be harsher with increased pressure but I didn't really feel it....
