• 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.

    Confused About Rear Car Tires Options

    Run Flat Tires Are any of the tires mentioned in this thread run-flats? I ran a run-flat tire on my Goldwing and was happy with the performance and mileage I got with it.

    RECC - Audio Icon

    Success!!! I received a call from Legendary Motorsports in Fargo, ND, the shop working on my Spyder telling me that my radio now works. Whenever you get a call that starts out with "you aren't going to believe this" you know the story should be interesting. Can-Am suggested throwing parts at...

    Final reflections on MIssouri

    Being new to the game, wondering if SpyderFest is always held in the same location or is it moved around?

    RECC - Audio Icon

    Received a call from the dealer today. They swapped out my radio with a new one to see if that was the problem. Didn't make any difference, audio still not operational. The service guy is getting a little frustrated with BRP as they don't seem to have much in the way of ideas of where to check...

    I wonder what kind of a mess it is from the cluster to the radio? With everything that is packed under the plastic that might be a challenge, but your though sure makes sense. UPDATE: Received a call from the dealer this morning saying that BRP wants to swap out the radio. About a $400 part...

    Latest update on the Audio Icon situation. The dealer pulled my gauge cluster and hooked it up to a 2015 model. Everything worked on the cluster just the way it should, so it appears that it isn't the problem. Then they took the new cluster and hooked it up to my bike. The audio icon became...

    Thanks for the video! The shrink wrap is a good idea and something I might be able to do. It's just all those words I use when I'm removing and trying to reinstall the plastic!!!

    RECC - Audio Icon

    Having one icon not working on a gauge cluster that otherwise is operational would seem to be pretty unusual. Not having any experience with cycle repair, especially electrical I'm glad to have the service department handle this. Just hope this isn't the first of numerous trips in....

    RECC - Audio Icon

    Got a call from the dealer today. BRP said to pull the gauge cluster and replace it with one from their inventory to see if the audio icon works on the new one. Can't get it in until next Tuesday, but at least I can ride. If it is the cluster it could get a little pricey. Mentioned the Service...

    My fault more than the dealer. I had a nine hour drive ahead of me so I was in a bit of a hurry. Fortunately we have a dealer 30 minutes away from where I live which makes this quite a bit easier. If we had some used Spyders around here it would have been easier to find one to buy!

    I'll bring that up to the shop when they get back to me with what the BRP guys have to say. Thanks for the info!

    RECC - Audio Icon

    Stopped by the dealer today. Three service guys looked at it and were stumped. They will file a case with BRP on Monday to see what they think. Said BRP is real good about getting back to them with some ideas so I hope to know something by Tuesday. Will post results when I hear something.

    Checked out the fuse, which is ok. Pulled off the plastic under the seat to find the radio, with all connections the way they should be. Next stop, dealer.
