• 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.

    I'm hoping for a better seat in future models.

    OKAY!!!! I give up! Some of you know more than the rest of us and especially me! I guess I have a stock seat that is longer in the drivers area and softer than all the others we have sat on. There that should satisfy some. :gaah: But it is a Comfort seat that came with our LTD. Sorry for those...

    I'm hoping for a better seat in future models.

    I guess I got the name wrong. Ours is the Comfort seat which our dealer told us comes with the LTD as it is somewhat more comfortable than one on the other RT's we have ridden. When we received our new LTD the dealer asked us if we felt the seat was too hard and then told us BRP sent some LTD's...

    I disagree. Aftermarket seats seem to fit just fine.

    Vibration at interstate speeds -- Input please - 2012 Spyder RT Limited - 4200 miles

    Our 2012 RT LTD has the same vibration issues even with the Smoothspyder installed and set correctly.

    I'm hoping for a better seat in future models.

    The seat on our 2012 RT LTD gets quite uncomfortable on long rides and after looking at other large touring bikes it is quite obvious why. The drivers portion of the Spyder seat is much too narrow. Our passenger portion is reasonably comfortable and is much wider than the drivers area. I have no...

    Who's the FRIGGIN' IDIOT???

    I loosened the ground bolt just as I remembered reading about what not to do. Oh well. I took a 10 mm open end wrench and bent it 90 degrees and slid it on the nut and tightened it back up. Easily done.

    Trailer lights stay on with RT off......?

    I have 2012 RT and a 2013 RT622 trailer. The lights have been working good till today. Today the trailer lights stay on all the time. When I first plugged in the trailer the fuse blew so I replaced it and then the lights came and stayed on. I park and shut off the RT however the trailer lights...

    Spyder and Toyhaulers

    Why would you tie to the wheels and not the A arms? If the straps are wrapped around the lower A arms out between the shock mount and ball joint you have a very secure attachment point with no strain on the steering components. Then cross tie if possible and snug the ratchet straps down. I don't...

    2013 Windshield Change

    Plyrod38 this is probably the website you are looking for to install the vent in your stock windshield. Just scroll down the page and it's all there. http://www.spyderrt.info/1_5_DIY.html If anyone has done this can they tell me if it cuts down on the buffeting?

    CArdo Scala vs other systems

    We have a set of Scala G4's which are good then one quit working. While waiting for a replacement we bought the Sena smh10's and they are a much better unit than the Scala G4. Much more user friendly too.

    need advice re:prescription glasses

    I purchased a pair of Oakley wrap around sunglass frames and had lenses made with my bi-focal prescription. The process they use works very well on curved lenses of any brand sunglass frame. I agree with nonpolarized lenses as polarization changes depth perception.

    Cardo G4 won't charge or turn on.

    I am going to send them in for repair but today we bought Sena SMH10's. We will try them out tomorrow. I just can't drive without the backseat instructions. :roflblack:
