• 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.

    Magic Mirrors causing gauges to misread

    I have heard that the magnets on the Magic Mirrors can cause the fuel and temp gauges to mis-read. I recall reading somewhere that there is a solution to this problem. Could someone please post this solution here if they have heard about it. Thanks.

    Key Chain

    The newer Spyders no longer have the delay to start so would be easier for a non Spyder owner to steal if key is left on ignition. I personally prefer the original plastic key holder that comes with the machine. BRP #710001102.

    No Power Steering at Idle

    As I said, it is more noticeable when you are backing up a trailer (mine is a BRP RT622) slowly and have to make quick steering adjustments to manouevre trailer in place. Another time you may notice it is when you are stopped and want to turn your steering to the lock position before you turn...

    it aint no GOPRO

    Ingenious, but probably not safe. I don't think helmets were designed to be drilled into. Perhaps if you want to wear it, consider a carriage bolt head underneath instead of a hex bolt head - easier on your head in an impact. Just my thoughts.

    Has anyone see this accessory for a spyder before?

    I got mine from Big Bike Parts. I am just using the lower piece, not the hood piece. It holds well with velcro strips and looks good on my 2015 RT Limited as it matches the black below the grilles.
