• 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.

    2014 RT vs Wind

    Remember 6th gear is overdrive .Sometimes you may have to run in 5th gear which is direct drive. Should help the power issue.A steady headwind may be enough to force that.

    gas mileage???

    My Dodge Ram crew cab with a Hemi gets 17 in town and 23 on the highway.My prostreet Mustang gets 9-10 mpg. So when we ride the 14 RT and get high 30's and low 40's we are pretty happy.

    Need some help.

    Once you get the balance right on the speakers,we have no problem listening to the radio even on the interstate. The radio however is not as good at picking up stations as my Victory was.

    Impressions of the 2014 RT with the SE/6

    we rode 1300 miles on our trip to tn over easter with 30 lbs of air in the front tires. It never felt stiff or bouncy. It stopped the roll under feeling we were getting during hard cornering. Y'all must ride slower or less aggressively than we do.We like to actually use the capabilities of the...

    Down shifting an SE - can you still downshift manually??

    Go ride the Dragon with an automatic and you will really enjoy the paddle shifter upshifting and down shifting 318 curves in 11 miles you will feel like you are in a formula car. Manual downshifting helps save your brake pads in the mountains.

    Searching for an RT / RTS - 2013 or 2014

    Almost bought the 13 RT limited,then rode the 14 RT back to back and the rebate went out the window and bought the base 14 RT and am glad I did. It had enough luxuries for me and the torque and sixth gear was the clincher.

    Impressions of the 2014 RT with the SE/6

    We have a 2014 Rt with the SE/6 and love it .We installed a Ron's bar and it helped,but upping the front tire pressure to 30 lbs really helps the roll under feeling.The factory setting of 20 lbs. just was too soft. I am 5'10" and find the stock seat with a backrest very comfortable even after a...

    Worst Can-Am Service and parts departments

    First of all I am stuck with this dealer for my normal maintanance due to my Gas-N-Go purchase at the time we bought our RT. I asked if we could transfer to another dealer and they said it only is good for their dealership. There is too much money involved to just throw up my hands and go to...

    Worst Can-Am Service and parts departments

    When I started this thread it was to make people aware of the situation that I have experienced with Ride Now Powersports. I have a new appointment next week to finally get my 3,000 mile checkup and at that time I am going to sit down with the owner or general manager or whoever is in charge and...

    What octane is everybody using

    Tried 89 this weekend on trip and did not see any difference in mileage or performance. Some places the difference in price was 40 cents per gallon,so I thought I would try the 89 and it did not seem to hurt anything ,no spark knock,no loss off power.
