• 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.

    BRPCare: A Question Concerning the 2013 RT Recall That Every Owner Wants To Know

    My 2012 is disabled and waiting for a cure------- My 2012 is disabled and my mechanic says he cannot find an answer as to why it runs fine for 20 minutes then throttle gets goofy, blubbering, slowing, only wants to run at higher rpm and dies at stops. Will restart but just idles--no throttle...

    Serious problem with 2012 RTS

    My 2012 RTS is unusable and my mechanic is stumped. It runs for about 10 minutes then loses power, spits a bit, small back fires, blubbers, stops, no response from throttle but will idle. Seems to be heat related except temp gauge shows lower then usual temps. Speedo pulses at idle. Will run...

    Battery terminal question onn 2012 RTS

    Guess what under your seat?????? Under your seat is a fine plug in connection for your battery tender all wired in and ready to charge (came from the factory)--without screwing up your battery terminals. Good luck with the repairs to your battery .

    FYI on my RT's Top Speed

    Spyder speed trials Have had my 2012 RT S up to 95 for a bit but I stay close to the speed limits most of the time. Love 45 mph on backroads most of all. I have done the ton and one half on a bike in the 60's and it was exciting and very scary! At 95 my Spyder had a long way to go before...

    2013 RT Heat Issue - Solved?

    Really? Sorry to hear of your being conned by a mechanic. What you stated them doing is pure, unadulterated BS. You have been had. Run away and never return to the seen of the crime.

    Those who have heat problems..

    Heat sorce on RT's Your hot right foot is caused by the heat exhausted behind the radiator by engineered flow---rig a thermometer at the back edge of that opening in front of your right foot---you will be amazed! Not a cool engineering design--nor too smart!

    Spyder tie down system on DropTail ?

    Spyder tie down made easy. Easiest rig on the planet to tie down------------I placed a very strong double bolt D-ring both front and rear of the rear wheel. I use a high capacity ratcheting cargo strap run over the tire (3" wide) and that is that---------no movement at all --ever!

    Dry Clutch Rattle

    Shake rattle and roll Hoping your noise is just a normal vibration effect and nothing serious. Usually when I think rattle I start looking for loose heat guards and such. An old trick is to take a stick, broom handle works, place one end on the machine at various points and the other at your...

    Excessive Heat on...

    Better late than-- Right side of our2012 RTS gets hot when the outdoor temps go over 90 and it emanates from the radiators exhaust which is close to the riders right foot. It's much like a blast furnace blowing on my right foot. I am sure this heat flows back to the passenger too. Doubt your...
