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.

What is a cut out ?????

Go stand in front ofyour bike, turn aound and face it...
Now; Do you see the bracket that holds the windshield in place?
On each side and kind of down near the bottom, you can see two "holes" in it...
The 2013 windshields have cutouts that line up with those holes...
It's a pretty easy DIY thing to do, if you've got the tools and guts to do it! :thumbup:

Good one :roflblack: Now that I know what a cut out is, may I ask the purpose of it.

Lets air through to equalize the pressures on opposing sides of the windshield, reduce turbulence, and alter the air flow patterns.

Having fitted the 23" vented screen I decided to get my OEM 2010 Windshield cut down to 23" and have the cut outs done in the lower part of the screen where
the > < in the brackets are -This is what Can Am have done for the new 2013 RT Models
See below from 2013 Catalogue Page 45
Vented Windshield
2013 standard windshield with openings.
Retrofits all Spyder RT models.
Spyder RT 2013 and prior
219400415 - Clear
$299.99
Rather than pay out for a new screen I took it to a local company
http://www.revolutioncustompaint.co.uk/
And they charged me £50
They did an excellent job and now I can use this screen in the winter
Maybe a local company in your area will be able to offer the same facility for Spyder Riders over there

Refs pattern to use I took my windshield still attached to the bracket so they could mark where the cutouts should be and match the cutouts exactly
