• 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.

    RT aftermarket trailer hitch

    I did the same after the module failed after 15 minutes and the dealer would not replace it under warranty. So far I have 5000km on my Aluma MCT and would not trade it even-up for a BRP 622.

    If I had designed the Spyder

    Changes that I would like to see 1. Spin on oil filters. 2. Reroute the front cylinder exhaust pipe. This would allow for a cooler engine compartment, larger fuel tank, and 'maybe' a better location for the battery. Doable?? I don't know.

    How do I disassemble the RT mirror housings?

    I installed mirror LEDs yesterday I took a few minutes to look at the surface of the housing that meets with the main body of my RTS. There are 3 clip areas.

    too many problems

    I am a low count poster. I try to keep my posts restricted to technical issues. Others (as is their right) post congratulations, welcomes and other social issues. More power to them. This is what makes us a community. Variance of attitudes and positions. I welcome people who disagree with me...

    Couple of questions...

    Apartment dweller here also I also cover mine every night. What I wonder is how long the stitching on the seat will last if it is exposed to rain? Covering also stops kids and others from climbing and sitting on it. Covering doesn't take long with the design of the storage bag.

    Loading Spyder into Toy Hauler

    No slip paint I made some plywood ramps and needed an anti slip surface. So I took some sand and sifted it through some window screen. Then i washed the dirt out of the sand, and added about a cup of it to a quart of latex paint. This worked well.
