• 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.

    Tail light bulbs

    In order to properly use a trailer, you need to let the dealer do it. Just had my RT done. Took it and trailer to dealer to insure it all worked properly. Also, the new Can Am trailer, which I don't have, uses a square four pin connector instead of the nine pin they used to have. I'm not an...

    Any thoughts on why Spyders have all these Bad Vibes?

    Thought the same thing at one time...Drive belt tension will need to be adjusted. It always seemed to me like a "Harmonic resonance" i.e. Motor r.p.m., vibration, and other things I may seem to know but do NOT.. Simply put, due to the fact that the Can-Am has a HUGE Belt, at certain...

    Gear Number Not staying

    I have tried to down-shift (on the SE) from 4th to third and engine will briefly hesitate, rev, and downshift. Seems like a way to preserve the clutch mechanism or transmission or both. Didn't start until the last ECM update. Still, I think it runs better. There have also been times when I try...

    Interstate Driving

    Bob, I like your post because it describes me perfectly after I bought My 2011 RT.."Newbie Driving Syndrome." I'm proud to admit that I was there and thanks to this forum, I learn every day. Also, bad roads don't help either. I feel that sometimes where the big trucks rut out the right and left...

    Riding with the trailer

    Trailers! Not to discourage anyone from an RT-622, I think the 622 is cool...I couldn't bring myself to spend that money yet. I bought an aluminum, "America's Best" trailer in South Carolina. Doesn't look as good, cost $1,500. That Made it look better, in fact, it looked real good. Had my...

    2013 RT Handling Problems

    Handling issue When I purchased mine in 2011, I noticed that if I tried to center it in my lane, it migrated to the right or left. What I immediately realized is that semi's and other heavy trucks as well as traffic, make a depression on the right and left side of the lane and a hump in the...

    I'm taking the Concealed Carry Weapons Class this weekend!!

    I've had my permit ever since Kentucky started the process. I have been to many ranges and hunted for over 40 years. I either have a Kimber Custom II TLE or a .40 Sig 226 Tactical at all times. I'll have one or the other with me when I ride. The Kimber helped me buy my RT. I can tell you first...

    Off the wall..!!

    Amen! Bought mine in 2011 and it has performed flawlessly. My dealer kept me abreast of the computer updates. Had them done. It runs better now than ever before..My wife feels safe on it and that's all that matters to me. You can have problems with anything. You CAN get a lemon of anything. I...

    To Whom It May Concern

    I agree with the original post..It reminds me of a rule sheet/ad for a golf tournament I played in once..In bold letters, in the middle of the sheet it Stated..."If Your Going To Bit.h Don't Play"... I just wanted a bike that my Wife would feel safe on and I bought it. Less than a year later the...
