• 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.

RT Dash Mount

How difficult is it to get power up to the dash mount, bought some clothing that could use easy access to juice.
 
I ran a wire up through the windshield swing arm. There is lots of room, and does not interfere in any way with the movement of the windshield. I used a cable tie (zap strap, zip strip or what you call them where you live) to secure it to one of the holes in the mount. I use the power for a GPS.

I'll admit it---- I copied JT's design and fabed up a copy of his dash mount. It's GREAT. a little taller and bent the way I want it. It's a must for mounting the GPS.

Kaos
 
Anybody else have problems when trying to order on his website? I put one dash mount in the shopping cart and try to order 2 each of the balls and long arms, and it keeps increasing the quantity of the dash mounts too. I tried to back out and go back in after each piece ordered, and it still won't work. If it keeps the dash mount at 1, it keeps the other items at 1 also. Arrrghh!!

Which website are you talking about?
 
I only bought the one mount at the time.

I am getting one of his carriers though. Hopefully in the next week.

Yeah, I can't even get the website to load at work.
 
I can't get to that website from work either, but I have this mount that I purchased a few months ago. I traded my RT for an F3, so I have no use for it. I'll sell it to you for what it costs to ship. Just PM me.

custom mount bracket w/ power

Hi Tyris, for heat gear I would suggest this item for you.
It's mounted around the handle bar which is a lot easier to reach for power.
We have 2 options custom made for RT and F3 series model.

1 side has 2 USB plus of 2.1A each, then the other is cigarette plug.

I attached some pictures here as well as the product link.

The pictures below is from RT, but the link as for RT and F series.

Mental note to self: must remember this solution for handy USB and 12vdc power in the cockpit
 
I love this and wish BRP would've used a similar setup on other Spyder models.

I have a 2014 ST-S SE5.

Any chance anyone knows if there is a solid dash mount setup for an ST-S?
