• 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.

    2020 RTL clutch surging when cold

    My 2021 RTL has done that since new--only on the first cold start/accel. Not to worry. BTW, I really like the new website format!

    Replaced the OEM battery on my 2021RTL (Pic)

    I put this one in my 2021 RTL. https://lamonstergarage.com/lamonster-garage-sale/ It was on sale; warranty for 5 years; lightweight with more CCA - AND it came from Lamonster's (my favorite place). Going into their showroom, I feel like a kid in a candy store! That link does not show the...

    Stranded! Spyder loses power, stops, & won't start. Any ideas?

    My 2021 showed "no active codes"

    Stranded! Spyder loses power, stops, & won't start. Any ideas?

    Mine acted the same way (2021 RTL)--only I was lucky enough to have it fail at home in my garage: https://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?158106-No-start-issue-fixed

    1330cc No start issue fixed

    1330cc No start issue fixed

    Several weeks ago my 2021 RTL with 14 K miles would crank--but not fire off. Battery was the original so i replaced it with a NOCO from LaMonster--still same problem. I trailered it to Pit Bull in Springfield Mo (where I bought it) and they quickly diagnosed it as needing an ECU upgrade, which...

    What could this weird fender vibration when braking be?

    Well THAT'S interesting. It is slight - and I don' think these Spyder rotors can be turned. If it gets worse, I think there are several rotor options out there and that requires new pads also, even if they are not worn out. Also, someone mentioned a wheel bearing adjustment. Please correct...

    What could this weird fender vibration when braking be?

    You are not alone my friend on the front wheel vibration. Almost the same problem on my2021 RTL--left front slight shudder vibe felt only when braking around 30-40 mph. I changed both rotors and pads (EBC), new verdstiens such as yours, had both wheels spin balanced and there is STILL a slight...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Finally installed my new front tires (Vredstein 175/55) after finding a tire store that had a "0 degree" balancing cone for their machine. They definitely track better and steer easier. Also installed new EBC rotors and HH pads. Installed K&N air filter and front center LED light that was on...

    Dipping my big toe in to check the water

    Took me about 1000 miles before I could let go of the left grip to wave to the Harley guys--they still didn't wave back. Seriously--I bought my 2021 RTL over 2 years ago at Pit Bull in Springfield Mo, about 100 miles from home. The ride home was "interesting" as I have been on 2 wheels for...

    Anyone else a loner and not a group rider?

    We do this with the ROMEOS--a group riding organization that does not ride in a group, but meets weekly at a different restaurant for conversation. All come from different directions and some ride together if desired. I have been the "ride director" of the North Central Arkansas Group for over...

    Weird Codes C1290, B2A239-231-249-241 2022 RT Ltd

    Sounds like the flux capacitor has malfunctioned. Did you happen to do 88mph in a thunderstorm? ;)

    How should I connect Sena to BRP Go?

    I have a Sena outrush R and a Garmin Zumo XT. I gave up on the BRP system and just use the helmet and Zumo--but I found that even though both are paired, I have to connect the Zumo first, then turn on the phone blue tooth. They both work together well and the Zumo shows the next song up and...

    Hate putting air in rear tire.....Hate it.

    If you think airing the rear tire (2021RTL) is difficult--it's even worse if you screw up like I did and place the drive sprocket back on with one of the wheel spokes over the air valve. Takes a little more fanegling but I can still do it with a flex hose gauge that clips on.

    2020 Top Box Will Not Remain Open - any solutions?

    Well-RATS! Probably the frustration of buying one "close" that winds up not working would be at least $75. AND--knowing the replacement will likely fail also. I did make a nice 19" notched dowel and will paint it and mark it BRP ;) I did take some measurements of the original "Suspa"...
