• 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.

    Replacing the grips?

    OK... I bought a pair of Grab On foam grips... destroyed them trying to get them on my 2013 RT Limited. There must be a secret. Hair spray dries too fast, soapy water no matter how soapy just didn't work. Give me more clues and details here on the secret. First attempt I took the handle-bar caps...

    Oil level, what the heck!

    10-roger that zbunker. I was spoofed pretty quickly by the oil system on our 2013(only a month old) and the "art" that must be mastered to check the oil. And I am completely "annoyed", for lack of a better term, with the "absence of science", accuracy and consistency one can expect with "oil...

    2013 RT LTD - analog fuel gauge - accuracy - NOT !

    Hi all.. I'm the one who started this thread. And just read-up on all the posts about figuring out the electronics of how the analog temp. and fuel gauges work, how to possibly wire around them, etc. AND.... I just wanted to share with you all about what I am now experiencing on our new 2013 RT...

    2013 RT LTD - analog fuel gauge - accuracy - NOT !

    Thanks Jerbear! :D, already seen it, read it - every page - studied it even - before I wrote the check actually. I found this website when researching the Spyders before we ever stepped foot in the dealers showroom. This website made me second guess my purchase reasoning for sure. Seems these...

    2013 RT LTD - analog fuel gauge - accuracy - NOT !

    mine is not "bouncing" around... it just goes down at apparently about twice the rate that the fuel is actually being burned. When the low fuel warning light comes on in the tach area, I still have a half a tank or more fuel actually left in the tank. My dealer's Service Mgr. says this is...

    2013 RT LTD - analog fuel gauge - accuracy - NOT !

    NancysToy... so are you saying you have an analog fuel gauge that reads accurately? Or are you referring to the digital fuel gauge in the multi-function display? Yes... I've already experienced that the tank won't fill to an indicated full on the analog gauge, if you insert the typical pump...

    2013 RT LTD - analog fuel gauge - accuracy - NOT !

    starting to sound like the analog fuel gauge is completely boggus or at least the issue with it reading crazay is "common" Analog fuel and temp were not an "option" on my 2013 RT... it comes this way standard. I think I will have the dealer disconnect these "ornaments" and see how accurate the...

    2013 RT LTD - analog fuel gauge - accuracy - NOT !

    OK… I am a first time Spyder owner, of a new one week old 2013 RT Limited… it appears the analog fuel gauge is completely nuttier than a fruit cake. At an indicated 1/2 tank, it will hold 1.5 - 1.7 gallons. I’ve filled it twice now with the gauge showing roughly half a tank. Both times it would...

    Grainy Spy photo of new model

    10-roger on the honda engine.. smooth & refined - no "bad" vibrations. The engine from the ST-1300 would be perfect. Shaft drive would solve alot of other "problems" and annoyances too... Listen up BRP... before someone else does.

    Born on date???

    anybody got any update info on where this "born on date" is located on 2013 RT's? There is nothing visible thru the vent under the left hand mirror that I can see. As I understand the frame on 2013's changed significantly. Which perhaps explains why its not there anymore. There is a sticker...

    Still trying to get comfortable

    I read about the ball joint issue on some 2013's. But read it was a Tech Srvc Bulletin and not a recall and is supposedly limited to certain VIN's and was corrected in Production in mid April. What is the production date on yours? Not sure where to find this info on the spyder... under my...

    Still trying to get comfortable

    new to the forum, new Spyder owner - 2013 RT Limited... just took delivery last Sat. 6/29... can 110% relate to what I assume most people call "the wobble" at interstate speeds. Logged about 200 miles over the weekend. I would describe "the wobble" more like a "squirming" around, almost like the...
