• 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.

    Dreaded DPS returns

    If you had the DPS unit recently replaced the technician who replaced it may have not synched the torque angle sensor twice. The torque angle sensor has to be synced on the DPS screen in BUDS and again With the VSS. If it wasn't done when the Spyder goes into yaw(side load as in a corner) it...

    Authenticity Check on my '09' Phantom

    The Phantom was presented to dealers for the purpose of being put into demo service. BRP wanted to show case accessories available. They knew dealers wouldn't pull all the accessories off the shelf to put on the Spyder. Whatever the case it looks darn good.:thumbup:

    Beautiful in Shiner, TX

    I'm jealous here in the panhandle of Texas we have had snow for a week and temps barely above freezing. It's amazing what a difference of 500 miles will make in the weather.

    600 mile service

    The shop manual has a complete check list of what needs to be done at the 600 mi service. When you have the service done ask for a copy of the service sheet. We have the tech check off each area of inspection and provide it when the Spyder is picked . It's more than an oil change! If a issue...

    Got the Spyder back!

    Please keep me informed about the performance. I'm sorry I didn't get to talk to you when you picked it up. I'm curious to find out if it changed the fuel mileage. I think the gear position sensor change helped with it's cold idle. The canister vent tube change is a positive move. Now the...

    NO excuses

    I made the post to to let you know that BRP is serious about the service of the Spyder. I have seen a lot of posts about the crappy repairs and the like. BRP is listening and taking action.

    NO excuses

    BRP has laid down the law. ALL Spyder dealers have to have one technician completley trained on Spyder service. If the shop doesn't have a trained tech they will not be shipped RTs. So there is your first clue that your shop has a trained tech if there are RTs on the show room floor.:clap:

    Can the Recall Update be UNDONE?

    The 2009-2 bulletin has to be done EXACTLY per the update and in the EXACT order. One false move and the unit WILL run like CRAP, it goes into limp home mode. If your unit is showing a DPS code when picked up the update wasn't done correctly. There is a last step that gets overlooked it's...
