• 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.

Did BRP get things right the first time, or did those years, particularly the very first year (2008), have any nagging issues that...

    recommended NoVA dealers?

    Hey, folks, As I said in the general forum, this is a great site. I'm seriously thinking about getting a Spyder. Quick question - which dealers in the Northern VA would you recommend for servicing/repairs? I know that the one in Fredericksburg gets high marks. Coleman's in Falls Church is...

    Another motorcyclist pondering a Spyder

    Very helpful, folks. Thank you very much for all of the replies. Just out of curiosity, if I'm looking at 2008-09 RM5's, are there any common mechanical issues that I need to be aware of? I already read about the steering recall. Are there other things that I'd need to be concerned about...
