• 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.

    2010 Spyder RT acts like it is flooded - any ideas?

    First... welcome aboard John! My wife has a 2010 RT-S as well. Last year was her first full season with this bike. We had service issues with the bike while on vacation with it last year and it ended up leaving us stranded and in limp home mode for much of our last day (because we had to come...

    Screwed the pooch - U0128 Code & Trans Fault - any suggestions?

    :agree: There is absolutely NO NEED to have a a module controlling these functions. It's another example of useless over engineering, feeling a need to over complicate something simple and create a failure point that BRP figure they can generate an income point. ALL you need is a motor, a set...

    Anyone installed Stainless steel braided brake lines?

    Good morning... What year and model? My wife has a 2010 RTS and there is SS braided brake lines on it. Even the clutch is a SS braided line. I thought they came standard. They certainly look original. Tim

    To Align now or later ?

    That's exactly how my tires are wearing! I know I need an alignment but I am having a hard time finding someone that knows what they're doing around here. I refuse to go to the dealer. I will probably end up doing it myself eventually. I wanted to wait until I installed my Bajaron swaybar...

    Can-Am didn't get the memo I guess - 2023 Electric Motorcycles release....

    U g l y ! ! I am in the same boat. I am in IT and cover the province of NS here in Canada. I am constantly on the road 24/7. Pre-pandemic I always had 1 or 2 months a year where I have put over 10k km on the car, not every single year but certainly in the last 5 years prior. I've gone through...

    My 2010 RTS just went up in a ball of flames

    So sorry to hear this. We're in Dartmouth and my wife has a 2010 RTS as well. It always had a fuel smell and got very very hot underneath as well. I ended up doing the canister-ectomy and rerouting the fuel vent line. No more fuel smell. I also wrapped my exhaust and that made a world of...

    Haze on lamp glass.

    Hey... I know this is a silly question but... is there any possibility that this is water vapor condensation that is caught on the inside of the assembly? Just asking because I have seen someone ask this questions a few times in the past for other bikes and that what it has turned out to be...

    Belt Tensioner, use it or do not use it?? What’s y’all opinion on that.

    1000% agree... I don't understand why they are not shaft driven. Sooo much better in all accounts. Tim PS... LOVE LOVE LOVE your Rune. I'm a GoldWing guy. The Rune is a work of art. I almost had one of those once. I should have pulled the trigger.

    Why oil in Air filter box & hose?

    I just did all this... I just went through all this a few weeks ago. Before you put it all back together you will want to be cleaning your Throttle Body. If not, as the oil that has been sucked down into the Throttle Body congeals, your throttle body will stop working well. What your wrist...
