• 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.

    Trade Up/In - Your Opinions, Please!

    Thanks! My head being bashed about is the only thing I don't like about the ride. I'm debating waiting a couple months to see what's announced for the new models before going forward with a trade in. I can't decide. Wait..don't wait...wait...don't wait.

    Trade Up/In - Your Opinions, Please!

    You're speaking my language! The 2012 didn't have the floor boards so I tend to ride with my toes on the pegs, which with long legs gives a fairly ear, shoulder, hip, heel position, not too dissimilar from an English saddle. I was wondering how it felt to whip around turns with that cruiser...

    Trade Up/In - Your Opinions, Please!

    Thanks for the feedback so far. I updated my OP. My complaints about the wind and air stem aren't the reason for trading in. I just wanted to include info on what I have now and what issues I have. I did have knee surgery and was on crutches for 4 months. I'm still recovering. Some I'm...

    Trade Up/In - Your Opinions, Please!

    Hi! I've been pretty quiet here lately for multiple reasons and all long stories. But, in interested in trading in my 2012 RT-S. I've added the Baja Ron sway bar, spyder pops critter splitter, GloRyders, and custom dynamics LEDS. I'm 6' and a heavier rider so I like the adjustable shocks. My...

    How to get my spyder back - Contacts at corporate?

    Thanks all! Per a suggestion here I checked the dealers list and they were no longer on it so I started to freak out even more. I called BRP Customer Service at 888-272-9222 and they confirmed that the dealer IS a current dealer despite not being on the map. They also recommended that I stop...

    emergency starting battery

    Would you agree with this video on how to jump a 2012? And, will the battery tender pigtail cause any problems? (I can't run out and look at mine or I would) I've just ordered one of the packs and am hoping to pick up my spyder from a terrible dealer next week. It's been sitting there since...

    How to get my spyder back - Contacts at corporate?

    At spyder fest 2 years ago my cluster started acting strange and would cycle on and off while I was riding. The BRP guys there had nothing to contribute so, I rode it to Pitbull and they ran it through BUDS and couldn't find anything wrong. It behaved for the rest of the trip. It started...

    2012 RT-S Screen Turns Off - Restarts While Riding

    Thanks guys. I was hoping this was something I could check/fix since my dealer is over an hour away in Baltimore. But it sounds like I'd be better off going up there and having them futz around with it. :) Thanks for looking and I'll be sure to post a resolution.

    2012 RT-S Screen Turns Off - Restarts While Riding

    2012 RT-S Screen Turns Off - Restarts While Riding *VIDEO* This started two years ago at the 2013 SpyderFest. I took it to Pittbull and they ran BUDS but couldn't find anything. Last week I had the spyder serviced (regular maintenance) and it's doing it again. While driving the screen will...

    What in the world...

    Oops, I didn't realize this thread was that old. Perhaps someone else has some more ideas, now?

    What in the world...

    Yikes, so my 2012 RT was doing this out at SpyderFest this year but the CanAm guys had no clue and neither did Pittbull. When hooked up to BUDs everything was normal. Yesterday on a 40 mile police escort ride where the temp was showing 102 (actual temp was in the 90s) it happened so many times...

    MPG'S

    On the highway I get much better mileage than I do tooling around "town". You can see my fuelly stats here: https://www.fuelly.com/driver/phxyiusspyder/spyder-rts I was getting 30-34 on the way to/from SpyderFest while I get 24-28 or so around town. I shift up around 5500 (higher if merging...

    What's going on...?

    Are you all on mobile devices? Tapatalk is an app for forums. Usually just saying no once removes the prompt. Sorry if it's misbehaving for you. :(

    Thanks all! I figured but, wanted to do a little sanity check first. :)
