• 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.

    Weird Noise every so often

    Weird noise If you have the RTS, it could be the airpump. Could also be the fuel pump, which has been an issue for the 2014s.

    Very noisy fuel pump!

    2014 RTS whine OK, just came back to this thread. Traded a 2012 RT for the 14 RTS last July. Love everything about the 14 except for the whine noise. On mine, it comes and goes; some days / rides the noise is prevalant even at highway speed. Other times, the ride is sooo quiet. I had come...

    RT Humming Any Ideas?

    2014 RTS with whine I traded my 2012 RT with SM5 for 2014 RTS with SE6. Love the machine in all accounts but one, a whine that is worse when cold. The whine increases in pitch as the engine accelerates. It does improve as the engine heats up. In the morning, when the ambient temp is 70...

    Utopia Backrest

    OK, with this feedback, I think I lean to the BRP OEM backrest. My wife's a tad larger than the response above (Don't let her know I said this). Anyone have any experience with the BRP OEM Backrest with passenger leg clearance?

    Utopia Backrest

    One last question on this. Does the Utopia provide for adequate clearance for the rider's legs? Really want it more for long rides where my bride is sitting behind me. The OEM looks like it's slimmer at the bottom to provide more rider leg clearance. Thoughts?

    DPS CODE

    DPS Sorry for the late response, but my 2012 did this to me a couple weeks back, following a fairly sharp turn. Did it twice and was concerned so took to dealer. he checked the code and found that the "pressure" setting on the power steering was slightly out of normal tolerances. Dealer...
