• 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.

    Looking to purchase Spyder RT or F3

    Hi strictlyred, at 5'2" you might want to look into the UFit system on the F3 models. You can adjust your foot placement to 5 different presets and a you can adjust the bars a bit. To be fair, I haven't looked into this since I purchased my F3 Limited in 2019 so perhaps the RT is offering this...

    Newbie in Alberta - needs buying advice/help please?

    This was great advice 2dogs. While I'm a member of spyderlovers, I'm pretty inactive during the winter. I did a google search this morning for "Alberta Spyder groups" and was promptly directed to this thread. I live minutes from Seagull and will be having coffee with him in a couple days...

    Gustafsson Windshield for my F3

    Sorry, I'm a little late to this discussion. I bought the 19" Gustafsson Sport Tourer for my 2018 F3 Limited. I'm just shy of 5'11" and the wind hits me on the forehead. There isn't much wind noise but to be fair, I've never tried the Spyder with another windshield (I put this on immediately...

    Battery Tender Cable Installation

    I took my battery out last winter as my garage is unheated. I have a 2018 F3 Limited. Figured I'd do the same as I do for two wheelers. I put the batteries on a tender before I return them to the bikes in the spring. All I had to do was reset my clock on the F3 this spring. Everything else...

    F3-T Black Paint

    Yup, those black swirls are annoying. Just ask anyone riding a 2018 F3 Ltd, Black on Black with matching Black 2019 Freedom Trailer. The trailer gets the "swirls" too. As someone coming from a Dual Sport background I found myself initially hanging on with my knees while getting accustomed to...

    Eco mode is painful

    I use eco mode when pulling a trailer in the rain. I've had the back tire break loose once and hope to avoid further instances. It may not have helped in the one instance as I was heading up a steep incline in a heavy downpour but I figure a reduced throttle response in the rain can't hurt...

    662 vs Lumina?

    You won't be disappointed in either choice. Both will serve you well. I considered the Alumina but went with the Freedom Trailer. Vanity can be expensive.

    what happen to the brp connect app.

    I see the app is back on Playstore. Reviews aren't promising. I have a Garmin Zumo 395LM that I'm very happy with. I just ordered the mount from Lamonster. I think I'll stick with the Zumo for now. I may look into BRP Connect if new features are added down the road.

    what happen to the brp connect app.

    indeed, I see the error of my ways now. As I updated in said thread https://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?118430-BRP-Connect-Question, I have contacted BRP and they are aware of the problem and are looking into it. Apparently you can still get BRP Connect in the Apple Store...

    BRP Connect Question

    Update Thank you @billybovine for bringing BRP Care to my attention. I sent them an e-mail. Sadly their response was simply to send me a link to the Playstore. I called the 1-888 number and described the problem. They are now aware and are looking into it. Here is the email follow up to my...

    BRP Connect Question

    Asking a question about BRP Connect on a thread titled "BRP Connect Question" hardly seems like a hijack. Thanks for your response and action just the same.

    BRP Connect Question

    Hello all. Rather than start a new thread I thought I'd try here. I just picked up a new 2018 F3 Limited yesterday. I notice BRP Connect is no longer in the Playstore. Following the link on the BRP website to the app also fails. Has anyone else noticed this and is there a workaround? Thanks
