There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

My short answer, I barely use my radio. Probably not worth the extra cost (guessing over $500), unless you plan to use it a lot. If you do a lot of touring, you will probably be out of touch with most radio stations anyway. If you want music, I-Pod may be a better solution. You can choose what you want and skip the commercials.

Mine has a radio, that is never "dusted off" so-to-speak.
I like to be familiar with the little sounds my spyder makes going down the road.
It's like a conversation to me. When it is squeaking or chirping, or belching or whatever,
then I have at least a clue that SOMETHING isn't right, and may actually know more than that, just by being a good listener.
hmm.... sounds like a solid basis for a human relationship too.

Radio use
My radio is rarely used. I can only hear it when going less than 50 mph. Living in a rural area where radio stations are spaced widely apart I find that I lose one station long before I can receive another. When traveling I'd spend too much effort trying to find a station I like, and then I'd probably lose it 10 miles down the road. For music I use my smartphone with a bluetooth connection to my Sena headset. I can listen to the music I like and not have to put up with the commercials.

But if it's not plugged-in: an XM receiver is! :2thumbs:

I believe the BRP radio kit includes FRONT speakers and harnesses only.
I believe as I recall it does not include the rear speakers and those are another kit (for upgrading the A&C models).
Just going by memory back when I was looking at 2011/12 base RT's and the cost to upgrade.
