Thats what I had to do with mine, but it is not like yours.
Thanks for the heads up. I definitely like the switch better than putting the USB docking station on the bars. I want to use that area for the carplay I recently bought from a forum member.

I took a ride today. I went about 40 miles.
I also got in the mail a 12V Pro Receptacle w/polarized leads + slide lock, that goes into the blank hole at the bottom of the trunk. I am going to use it for charging my power pack. I will be installing that this weekend.

A couple weeks ago I installed Ikon shocks (front only) and tires all around on both RT's. Rear tire 215/60R-15 GENERAL ALTIMAX RT45 SL, fronts 175/55R-15 Vredestein Quatrac SL. I purchased the tires from Tirerack and had the tire mounted and balanced at Les Schwab. I dropped them off, my wife picked them up. Prior to mounting everything up, I noticed the rear wheels had the original wheel weights still installed. I gave the LS a call and they told me that there is no way to balance those wheels/tires on their machine, would have been good to know at the get go.
I did some research and purchased a balancing stand and some wheel weights on-line. The rod that comes with it has cones for centering the wheel held in place with a set screw, way too much play caused the wheel to be off center. Fortunately, the axle fit in-between the bearings on the stand after a little grinder action to get the job done.
Oh, we replaced the AGM batteries with Noco LiPo batteries too.
The tires are great, the shocks feel really good. We are very satisfied with both additions. I really appreciate all the feedback on the forum, the difference in handling with the "recommended" tires is night and day from the Kenda's.

A couple of weeks ago, I replaced the headlights with Sealight S2-9005 LEDs. Truly plug and play and a direct fit. I got tired of the yearly replacing of the Ultra Bright Halogens and only $30 more for the pair. Now when on bright, the reflection off the Interstate signs is very impressive. See how long these last!

Checked in on getting the HMC filter I ordered from BajaRons on April 18. They won't have one for at least another week. Local shop that sells CanAm Spyders didn't have one either. Ron orders directly from BRP and they are back ordered there also. I wonder if they have to get them from Rotax????

Added Baldwin Cat Delete Pipe
Things have started heating up in Florida, so I finally bit the bullet & replaced my Cat with a Baldwin Ironworks bypass pipe. Cooled things down considerably and really didn’t make it much louder. I decided to go with the baffle & end-plug and work my way down from there. Most guys just use the baffle minus the end-plug, but I didn’t want it any louder and wanted to maintain the back pressure. It’s perfect just the way it is. I also added a K&N air filter. My magnetic mirror mounts will be here today.
I think I’m done... the money tree has no leaves left! Today is the first day of the Leesburg Bike Fest which is about 30 minutes from my house. Time to just take a ride & enjoy the sunshine.
