• 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 battery on a 2010-2012 RT

    Excellent Great Vid... I knew the 2 panal short cut and with this excellent instruction it took me 15 mins to get the old battery out of my 2011 RTS yesterday... did have to bend that 1 retainer clip up just slightly to get it out, but no problem at all. 5 yrs was pushing it on the original...

    RTS Warranty beyond 5 years

    Thanks Chicken Yup - my Battery is 5 yrs old too. Probably be a good preventive measure to have it replaced when I get it serviced... looks like they have to tear about half the bike Tupperware and rear end apart and then some to replace it. Who designs these things ? Denting the $3.5K already...

    RTS Warranty beyond 5 years

    Beauty eh ? Low mileage '11... Paid for... I like this bike... new machine would cost about $3500/yr ...that would make a sizable emergency fund indeed... so Thinking about this 4 point plan -> ---get it serviced and checked out good on BUDS prior to warranty expiration next month --emergency...

    RTS Warranty beyond 5 years

    Interest ? Interest ? Yeah right... 1% tops (0.5% after taxes in The Peoples Republic of NY), lol.. but regardless the emergency fund idea may be the only option

    RTS Warranty beyond 5 years

    No Progress so far... Just got off the phone with BRP.. they don't offer anything through B.E.S.T. beyond 5 years. Suggested I inquire at dealership to see if they offer anything. Will do Monday but I suspect they don't. I have had zero problems in 5 years with this machine except for 1 loose...

    Taking apart the RT's mirrors...

    Installed the LED arrow mirror signals a few weeks ago. Ran the wires behind the mirror not inside the housing, drilled a small hole throught the bike side of the housing after pushing the mirror back to get the wires to the area between the bike and mirror housing itself where the plug is...

    Rear shock on 2011 RT

    I was there when the poster discovered this on his RT. I'll bet that shock was centered when it came through the dealership and shifted after it got a few miles on it on the road. Without the spacer bushing on one side it probably stayed centered for just a little while. It would have been real...

    Handheld CB ???

    Now that's great to hear. Just what I was hoping for. My backseat navigator may just become the cb radioman too.

    Are You Serious!!??

    I like that. I've been telling them they cost about a truck load of paper government money in $100 dollar bills but they are still cheap if you pay with real money, only about 15 kugerands.

    Handheld CB ???

    Curious how it would work with the little antenna it comes with for talking to bikes within a few hundred feet. We ride in small groups of 2, 3 or 4 very close to each other and the other 3 bikes have the $1k can am set ups. If that's totally out do you have a rec for another antenna that worked...
