• 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.

    Vibration GONE

    Howdy; Now this is causing me some concern. The Only accessory I see in BRP (Canada's) site is an 'Idler pulley Service kit': https://www.brp.ca/on-road/shop/spyder-accessories/idler-pulley.html. Of course - no pics and it's too inexpensive to be the full accessory (?). Anyone have a part...

    Electrical problem

    Howdy; NP, sir. Pitchers' worth a few hundy words ... Suppression across contacts/load: Suppression across relay coil: One protects the 'relay 'trigger' ( e.g, whatever's driving the relay coil); one protects the contact / load. BackEMF is very bad juju. Possibly overkill in this...

    Can-Am 25" Adjustable Vented Windshield Good for a Tall person? (6'4 )

    Yes, but - if the shield does not do what you want it to, it's no bargain. It's like buying a bargoon riding jacket that you can't zip up :D Cheers E

    Electrical problem

    Yep. Always. [ with an added suppression diode across the contacts for good measure ]. It's not so much the steady load when the button contact closes, it the repetitive arcing from opening/closing induced by the inductive loads of a horn that eventually degrades the button's contacts - (unless...

    LED Headlight Question

    Which does not in any way invalidate the fundamental truths of the points made (and LEDS are mentioned). Is your Constitution invalid given it's date? The Bible? You can't alter basic physics. And it is still flat impossible to fully mimic the fully unshrouded filament - close, perhaps, but the...

    full power shifting

    Yessir - I know. The point being, this site, by not calling out / curtailing such behaviour can run the risk of being construed to mean it's (passively, at any rate) condoned. Porn/profanity is the lesser evil - no one gets hurt (physically). Hooligans indeed, lol. Cheers E
