Yes and it works great although there is a very noticeable whine. There have also been some recent questions about long term reliability of the BRP tensioner. My belt vibration is completely...
My experience as well. I sort of wrote it off to Spyders having lots of plastic bodywork and not a lot of chrome.
Good looking trike. It also appears to have had the scoops installed to address any heat issues. That's a good thing for any buyer. [emoji6]

Yep, it's always had the whine, but it has seemed much louder the last few days. Could be my imagination though. I won't worry about it unless the belt vibration returns.
I'm not the person who had the failure, but I am using the BRP idler on a 2012 RT in AZ. My install still seems to be functioning, but there is a greatly increased whine compared to when it first...
Don't do the "time-sale" thing, even for a friend. It almost never works out.
I've had situations where I "needed" to sell a vehicle, but there were no takers. My solution was to drop the price $50...
Sandstorms do happen a couple times a year, but I've never had to shovel the walk or driveway after one. [emoji6] We also get monsoon storms. And we have rattlesnakes and scorpions mountain lions and...
There is a fix for this problem. It is called Phoenix, AZ. [emoji6]

As a recent installer of Doc's adapter on my 2012 RT, I can say it is a fairly easy install, assuming you are comfortable with removing the Tupperware. In the few test miles I've ridden, it seems to...
The song parody was just for fun, you see. It's raining like the dickens here in AZ. I sing not of what is, but what I wish to be. [emoji6]

Palm trees wave, are you listening?
In the pool, water’s glistening.
A beautiful sight, we’re happy tonight,
Living in a Phoenix Wonderland.

I just wish this device was an option for my 2012 RT. [emoji53]

If you mean the AM/FM radio antenna, I will second the Walmart recommendation. Cheap and has worked great since installation a couple years ago.

I can ride all year, but typically choose not to when temps are over 105. Additionally, my current job often prevents riding as much as I would like due to the unpredictable schedule and frequent...
I am 6' tall and find the 2012 (basically the same as the 2011) RT very comfortable with seal floorboards. I also love the SE5 paddle shift, even though I've always ridden conventional motorcycles...

So would a Piaggio MP3 scooter be considered a roadster? My understanding is that the State of Nevada considers reverse trikes to be motorcycles, but does not consider a conventional trike a...
Agreed. Spyders/trikes are NOT bikes. (bi=2 tri=3), but are they motorcycles?
As a member of a conventional motorcycle club, I've actually given this topic far too much thought and had many...
Just checking, but are you trying to power the battery by connecting it to itself? The 12 volt plug in the trunk gets its power from the battery you are trying to power. Sorry if I'm not...
Thank you for squeezing me in. I was truly shocked and happy that my alignment was actually good. You gave me great peace of mind and also have likely given me the secret to correcting that nasty...
Very nice write-up. Personally, I like the looks of the Slingshot, but agree with others that it is not a motorcycle. Not sure about other states, but in AZ the Slingshot is not even considered to...
Highly recommend the cat delete, if only for the sound improvement and heat reduction on my 2012. Also seemed to have improved mileage and it "feels" more powerful, even if that is just in my head....

Any thoughts on opportunities for farkling at Red Rocks? I know there will be various vendors on site and am looking for farkle ideas for the 2012 RT.
Already done farkles:
Floorboards, cat...
I post infrequently here, but read all the time. It will be great to put faces with the many people I have been reading here for years. See you at Red Rocks. [emoji3]

What part of AZ will you be visiting? We have a couple fairly active Spyder groups out here. Maybe you would like to go for a ride...
That actually makes a lot of sense. I suspect you are correct, sir. Thank you. It has been bugging me not knowing. [emoji3]
