• 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.

    are we going to do the right thing??

    I feel your pain I purchased a 2015 RT last Oct. Physical considerations also forced me to part ways with my 2007 FJR. I sold the FJR about a month ago. I was sad to see the FJR going down the road on the back of someone else's pickup. However the RT provides a stable, confident platform. I...

    Not a Big Problem - Just looking to see if it has happened to others

    Loose bolt I also had one back out on my 2015 RT. I went to Tractor Supply and bought 4 hex head replacements. I have purchased OEM Torx bolts from my local Can Am dealer but have not yet swapped them out.

    RT GAUGES GONE

    Analog guages I have a 2015 RT base model. No analog guages. I could never figure out why BRP installs redundant analog guages when the digital guages are just inches away. But that's just me.

    Would this work

    Trailers I purchased a 6x12 utility trailer to transport my RT. The reason I went with the 12 foot length is that I wanted some extra length to be able to move the Spyder to get the proper tongue weight for towing. A 10 footer does not allow much room for adjustment.

    Trying to Decide 2016 or 2017 RT Limited

    Why waste money? I purchased a 2015 RT SM6 when the 2016s were coming out. The dealer in Tampa sold it to me for about $3500 less than MSRP. Unless you absolutely have to have the latest color, why not put that extra cash in your pocket and enjoy it elsewhere?

    The Perils of Cicadas

    What a mess A very similar phenomenon occurs near lake St. Clair in Michigan. The offending insect there is fish flies. Millions upon millions of these creatures hatch to fulfill their destiny to breed then die. They do not cause pain like the cicada does but upon their death, the roads are...

    Belt Walking off sprocket:

    Belts One of the things BRP could do to make the Spyder even better than it already is would be to change to a shaft drive. When I bought my RT last Oct. a friend of mine already had one and gave me a heads up on some of the quirks and situations to be aware of. As I began to put some miles on...

    Rattle in mirror area solved

    I finally found the culprit that was causing the rattle in the mirror area of my 2015 RT which was driving me crazy. On the base RT there are two hole covers on the instrument cluster facia that when removed will accommodate analog gauges that are standard on the more expensive RT models. I...

    Noobs Everyone that drives a Spyder has one thing in common. Every one of us had our first time in the Spyder saddle. We were all Spyder Noobs at one point.
