• 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.

    Has anyone used front wheel 'roll into' chocks on your trailer?

    @Jackhartjr - I looked at your E-track setup! I was looking to use E-track and the roll-in chock. No left/right movement, TBD on front tire/fender fit. My issue is the Aluma trailer has a metal deck to drill holes into for the E-track. I'll need to use metal backing to reduce the torque on the...

    Has anyone used front wheel 'roll into' chocks on your trailer?

    I have a Aluma Trailer that I haul my 2024 RTL. I'm think about installing roll into chocks for the front tires, this would better secure the front. Has anyone used roll into chocks?

    My Accessories installation - progress & tips

    I just finished my first installation of accessories to my 2024 RTL. After asking question here on the forum, I purchased various accessories. Without a manual to follow (2024 RTL Service Manual not available) it was Youtube, dealer instructions and guess work. 1. Installed handlebar riser...

    Russell Day Long saddles for '20+ RT's - they don't make a driver backrest!

    I have half moon on my BMW 1600, it sets very well. Best accessory I bought for the BMW, I run 250-350 day rides with noises. Ran to Texas-Calif back to Idaho and had no issues. I have bad back and shoulders, great saddle!

    Bought the Utopia backrest, now waiting for delivery. Will send just my saddle to RDL for custom, just leaving it vinyl.

    Russell Day Long saddles for '20+ RT's - they don't make a driver backrest!

    Peteoz - I'm looking at the Utopia backrest, same cost as 3rd party backrest. I'm really debating just having the driver saddle done my RDL and leaving it vinyl. I ride the BMW and only use the RTL when two up. So, you did vinyl with Sunbrella inserts?

    Russell Day Long saddles for '20+ RT's - they don't make a driver backrest!

    Bottomline, they do not build their backrest for 20+ RT's. I'm working through my work sheet to have my 2024 RTL built. It will require me buying a SPYDER backrest and sending it with my saddles. The positive from this, RDL backrest are horizontal inserted and Spider are vertical. Less passenger...

    Any Pics of 2020+ RT Daylong or Laam Driver's Seats?

    Now that RDL does not build a backrest for the 20+ RT's, I'm going to have to buy a standard Spyder backrest and then send it in with my seat to be recovered. I'm thinking a Sunbrella insert that matches my brick red bike. I make 2-3 day-rides a week here in Northern Idaho and they're 200-330...

    Russell Day Long saddles for '20+ RT's - they don't make a driver backrest!

    They will not build their backrest for 20+ RT's, they will recover existing Spyder backrest.

    Russell Day Long saddles for '20+ RT's - they don't make a driver backrest!

    RDL does not build driver backrest for 2020+ RT's, I sent an email asking the reason why. This was their response: "On the 2020+ Spyder RT's, Can Am altered the seats to where our backrest hardware won't work. There's a mechanism inside the seat that, when pressed, adds power to the braking...

    What power outlet & fuse do you use for heated clothing?

    Will install a 12v waterproof power outlet below the toggle switches and hard wire it to my new fuse box. Use a 15 amp and cigarette lighter plug with a 16-gauge wire and an SAE end. I have an SAE/coax splitter I use on my BMW. I use a hand-held inflator for tires that uses an SAE connector. My...

    Who built their own plug & play system for adding accessories?

    Who built their own Plug & Play 2-pin electrical male/female plug socket quick disconnect system? Vice buying 3rd party built connection, who built their own for the various electrical install connection. I plan to install a fuse box and all but the battery leads will be connected using the...

    Any Pics of 2020+ RT Daylong or Laam Driver's Seats?

    Peteoz, would you explain a little more about the front and rear seat issue? "It simply means you have to pull the prongs at the front of the rear seat right out to seat it." I want to call them and address the issue before I send mine in to be built. Also, did they provide the backrest or did...
