• 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.

    2011 RT Won't Start - switch was loose, so I glued it in, could this be the problem?

    I don't know your start-up procedure since you don't provide your ride information. Regardless, here are some thoughts: Is the emergency cut-off switch off? Are you stepping on the brake pedal as you turn the ignition key? Are you following the correct steps for your ride as detailed in your...

    Left headlight stopped working, but the Right headlight is still working - any suggestions on what to look at/try?

    I had the same issue with my 2014. I changed both bulbs and Voila! Let there be light. Changing them was not difficult, time consuming, but not difficult. As Racoon noted instructions for removal/replacement are in the operator's manual. You can also find videos.

    Is there any factory installed Navigation on a 2024 F3T?

    No, navigation is not installed. In 2018 BRP stopped offering installed GPS as an option. BRP decided that riders will be dependent on their smart phone to provide GPS through BRP's BRP Connect App. In 2024, BRP added Apple CarPlay as the means to use GPS. To use this you must have an iPhone...

    Anyone tried to modify their 2020+ RT OEM Windshield with a GL1800 vent?

    @agolder, I didn't install the vent, I was quoting from the posts that I found. You'll have to reach out to Plyrod38 on this post Jun 23, 2013 #17 . I'm sorry for the confusion.

    Is there a Key Blank available for 2014+ Spyders?

    I had one made up at Ace Hardware. I needed it when I sold my 2014 RTL so that I could still unlock my RT-622 trailer.

    I cannot get the T25 screw on top RH of the Windscreen bracket to loosen - any suggestions?

    Since it's on the windshield and you do not state that it is stripped and I wouldn't want to melt or crack the windshield, I would try penetrating oil to lube the screw, wait a few minutes and give it a try. If that doesn't work, I would apply more oil and using a vise grip on the handle of...

    My '21 S2S rattles quite badly for a few seconds after ~5 months layup start - any way to spin the motor without starting?

    None of the RT's I've owned did this, maybe other models do. With the kill switch on, nothing happened.

    One year on the oil & filters, but only 900 miles - is it OK to change just the oil?

    I would check your operators manual for the recommended oil/filter change and follow it. The BRP recommended oil and filter change is once every 9,300 miles or once a year. I always change the filter with an oil change no matter the mileage.
