• 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.

Any idea where this goes??

This was under the 2021 RTL after moving. Looks like a rubber bumper of some kind but I can't see where it came from. I've looked on the BRP parts site but cannot find it. Any ideas?

Life is sometimes unbelievable ..... I recently found the Exact same thing ...... hope you / we find out what it's to .... Mike :thumbup:
 
When those are installed correctly they rarely if ever come out. Guessing it was just an extra one rolling around somewhere during the assembly process and it finally shook out.

Do you know where they go? If I find that out I will look on the parts list to get the part # and maybe I can find out whether it is just extra or there is someplace that doesn't have one.
Thanks

Found it on the BRP Parts site. Under the passenger foot peg. I think when lifting the passenger foot peg there is enough suction pressure from the foot peg that it pulls the rubber foot right out of it's hole.

When the passenger footrest is lowered, the stops circled in red contact the rubber stoppers to prevent metal to metal contact that would eventually wear off the finish of the footrest stops.

Wow, how did you even find that and tell from that pic that that is what it was? Lol


I have an ST and see things like this behind where corners of the panels are or meet to keep them tight.

Just looking at the drawings and zoomed in and it popped right out. The old blind squirrel story I guess. lol

Yep. they are generally used to take up space between parts that don't fit tight or need a slight cushion. Trunk lids, body panels, and footrests.

Thank you for posting this agrimm.:2thumbs: You just saved me a whole bunch of time & aggravation trying to figure out what that piece is when I find it on my garage floor. And I know it will probably happen eventually.
 
I was tupperwared down to the front pulley and had a push pin left over when it was back together. When I am bored sometime in the next couple weeks I will remove panels until I find an empty hole to install it in. Might look at the parts diagram to see if I can figure it out.

Hey Snoking1127, that pushpin must be mine. I came up short one just the other day when iI was working on my spyder. How does that happen?

I'm sure it's those 'black holes' that things fall into, never to be seen again!! :shocked:

I reckon they are actually BRP's early attempts at developing/using 'worm holes' for interstellar travel, and once again, we, the unsuspecting owners, are the 'un-documented Beta testers' of this burgeoning technology!! :rolleyes:

Let's just look at the evidence for this - anything that falls into these 'black holes' disappears doesn't it? Never to be seen again - at least not by you! That's cos it's instantly translated across the space/time continum into someone else's Spyder/Ryker, only at this stage of the technology's development, the destination targetting is done randomly - it could be sent any-where, or any-when.... it just hasta be another Spyder/Ryker with a 'black hole' to receive the translated gear into. :lecturef_smilie: So when it's least expected, these translated items will simply appear at the destination end - probably in the form of an extra nut/bolt/push pin on the floor after you've put your machine back together again; or if the 'translation' didn't work quite so well as it should, then it might end up as a drip or 6 of a mysterious 'oil like substance' found in a puddle in one of the underbody trays, or as an inexplicable drip/drips on the floor under your Spyder/Ryker!! Both of these mysterious events do happen, don't they!?! You and I both know it, so there you are! It's real!! :shocked:

Go on, tell me you've never lost something that's fallen into one of those 'black holes'!! :banghead: Or if your Spyder/Ryker is a 'receiver', are you sure that you've never found any mysterious 'oil like substances' either caught in one of those underbody trays or found as drips on the garage floor under your machine! :dontknow: Heck, if you were lucky enough to score a Spyder/Ryker that's been equipped with both 'sending' black holes and 'receiving' black holes, you might even have experienced BOTH of those!! Have you?!? What more do you want? An admission from BRP? Not gonna happen - look'it the Kenda tires thing.... it's more'n ten years down track now, and they STILL won't admit they were suckered into that particular deal! :rolleyes:








Sorry, but I saw those other posts, and I just hadta!! :p Besides, she made me do it!! :dg2:
 
I would be willing to wager that at least some of those "black holes" that Peter mentioned actually dump out "down under" and he has a PILE of those items sitting in a corner of his shed. :dontknow:
