I have a 2018 RT Limited with about 5,000 miles on it. I noticed the other day that my drive belt has a small "chunk" out of it on the outside edge. I' attaching a picture of the damaged area of...
Just purchased a 2018 RT Lmtd and am playing with BRP Connect, learning the features and challenges. Making progress, but struggling with the music app. I have an iphone 7. I've loaded the BRP...
Been shopping today. They are saying $4k off RT Ltd; $4,500 on F# Ltd and $5,500 on F3 T. Certainly trying to get rid of the Ts.
Changing pads on 2014 RT today. Idea on caliper torque setting?
Many thanks.
Jeff
I actually just bought an online shop manual. Fronts are 50 ft.lbs and rear is 77.
I'm down to 1.75mm on rear and will need pads in 2,500 miles or so. How do I order from Baja Ron? I could not find pads on his store on e-bay.
Thanks.
So Spyderfest 2016 will be in MO again, correct?
If you have the RTS, it could be the airpump. Could also be the fuel pump, which has been an issue for the 2014s.
OK, just came back to this thread. Traded a 2012 RT for the 14 RTS last July. Love everything about the 14 except for the whine noise. On mine, it comes and goes; some days / rides the noise is...
Installed earlier this spring on 2014 RTS. completed 1,300 mile 5 day trip and love it. Wifey reports no loss of space or comfort on the back. Her only complaint is additional effort getting over...
Just finished 1,300 miles in 5 days in Western CO and eastern UT on 2014 RTS. 2 up, loaded down with luggage and made 42.4 mpg for the complete trip. Last fall, did a midwest / southeast swing of...
I traded my 2012 RT with SM5 for 2014 RTS with SE6. Love the machine in all accounts but one, a whine that is worse when cold. The whine increases in pitch as the engine accelerates. It does...
OK, with this feedback, I think I lean to the BRP OEM backrest. My wife's a tad larger than the response above (Don't let her know I said this).
Anyone have any experience with the BRP OEM...
One last question on this.
Does the Utopia provide for adequate clearance for the rider's legs? Really want it more for long rides where my bride is sitting behind me. The OEM looks like it's...
Sorry for the late response, but my 2012 did this to me a couple weeks back, following a fairly sharp turn. Did it twice and was concerned so took to dealer. he checked the code and found that the...
I traded my 2012 RT A&C for a 2014 RTS last weekend. Only 100 miles so far, but WOW - what a ride!
I want to add the driver backrest and saw the Utopia seat online, but also saw the Show Chrome...
Thanks for all the responses. I think I'll try getting the Spyder off her foot.
Feet can rest nicely on the water defectors. On a pre-14, your right leg will get a bit warm. Aftermarket floorboards help too.
I tested a 2014 RTS with semi automatic tranny yesterday. While the tranny will take some getting used to (if I make the deal I'll trade my 12 RT A&C with manual), the howl from the engine caught me...
I drove it home tonight with no issues. I'll check battery connections, but assume those are fine as it starts and runs fine. I have appointment to drop at dealer this weekend. I'd rather take road...
Hey, late to this topic, but just had an issue this week.
2012 RT A&C with 9,500 miles. Riding home 2 nights ago and after about 15 minutes of highway, got the check engine lite, the light with...
Hi, my name is Jeff and my wife Vivian and I bought a new RT this winter. We live in Longmont and look forward to the riding season and meeting other spyder riders.
I ended up at about 4.3 to get it to the full mark on the dipstick. I actually measured what came out and this is about what I drained out.
Thanks to all for the advise and reponses.
I just finished my initial oil change on a 2012 RT with the manual transmission. 4 qts has the oil just to the bottom of the dipstick, at the add line? Everything I've read says 4 qts. Do they...
I'm new to the site and new to Spyder ownership. Purchased a 2012 RT and need to do the 600 mile service. Any help in where I can order oil filters that come with the o-ring and the 2 crush...
