• 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.

    DESS Key code again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    https://www.honda-acura.net/forums/tsb_recall/tsbs Funny finding this info on a car forum. They have most models and years. Just put your specific details. I called the dealer and was told that I would be charged. So I guess it has to be a recall in order for it to be covered. Looking to get it...

    DESS Key code again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I have read the entire thread. It has been a long morning, lol. More info, this has been happening for a bit off and on. I can get by it, sometimes quickly, sometimes not (turning key on/off, waiting, etc). Does anyone know someone in the Atlanta area that can turn it off? If you don't want to...

    DESS Key code again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    2014 Starting to get the error on mine now. Out of warranty. Anyone have an idea what the cost is to fix this? I am sure my local dealer here in GA will not disable it.

    What is the latest & greatest 2014 RT Rear Tire?

    https://www.vredestein.com/car-suv-tires/products/ Quatrac is not on there, the 5 and the Pro is, but not the Quatrac. Guess they don't update their website very often then.

    What is the latest & greatest 2014 RT Rear Tire?

    Looks like the Quatrac may/is no longer being made. I don't see it listed on Vredestein's website. It is out of stock on Tire Rack as well (Update: Looks like Tire Rack may have them. Looked earlier and said OOS, not IS). May need to go with the Altimax.

    What is the latest & greatest 2014 RT Rear Tire?

    What is the latest and greatest rear tire for the RT? I have not been riding as much as I used to so I am out of the game so to speak. I am starting to ride more this year and it is time for a new rear tire. I was just wondering what people are using nowadays. I know they improved the stock...

    1330 Oil Filter Cover Stuck!!

    This is a Ryker video, but Can-Am recommends using oil on the o-ring. But it is a Ryker and not a Spyder, but still should be the same. https://youtu.be/fa7DM2l3eRo?t=139

    1330 Oil Filter Cover Stuck!!

    I just took it off and then screwed it back in a little to keep the dust out till I get back to it. I looked at it and it seemed fine, but I literally spent about 2 mins on it. I will dig further in once I get all the parts. I will be putting oil not only on the O ring, but on the threads as well.

    1330 Oil Filter Cover Stuck!!

    I finally was able to get it off with Vise Grips. It was on there. Getting the new cover in the next day. I went ahead and order the Gold Plugs for the motor and trans as well to make the next one easier. Will wait on them before putting the oil back in. Thanks for the suggestions.

    1330 Oil Filter Cover Stuck!!

    I went to change my oil and the cover for the filter will not come off. I have applied so much force that the 26mm socket slips on the "nut". I started with a multi point socket (my first mistake, but it should have come off with that). I then got the low profile 6 point socket like you should...
