• 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.

    Apple Car Play download initially failed! NOW Finally available....

    Probably just wasting your time right now. Multiple people have said here and on FB that they are not being presented with the update anymore. My guess is that they found a significant bug and now have to fix it and re-release it. It never ends...

    Apple Car Play download initially failed! NOW Finally available....

    Good God. I think I will stay on 2.1.1 and not let it revert to the older version based on your experience. Unless I see some fatal flaw in 2.1.1 I will run with it until 2.1.2 or whatever the next drop will be. Did you get an alert that caused you to go look at the fault codes, or was it just...

    I think Chamberlain cut off the APIs because they saw $$$ that they were leaving on the table by letting others integrate into their system and thought they could rake in that sweet, sweet cash for themselves. So they cut off their nose to spite their face. There are tons of PO'd...

    Apple Car Play download initially failed! NOW Finally available....

    Seems pretty clear then that BRP pulled the update for one reason or another. Either got released earlier than planned, or they found showstopper bugs in it and had to contain the damage until they can release a "fixed" version. So far in my very limited testing my bike is working OK, and ACP...

    Apple Car Play download initially failed! NOW Finally available....

    Just went out for about 15 minutes, ACP worked fine, had Apple Maps up, music playing off of Apple Music. I could switch between headset speakers and the bike speakers. I then tried "Hey Siri", got the Siri icon to show up but then whatever I said, was read back in this really slow robotic...

    Apple Car Play download initially failed! NOW Finally available....

    It's not unusual for software updates to be pulled when problems are found. My Hyundai navigation updates would often get pulled within a day and then have to wait a week for a new one to be released. Someone on Facebook also said they couldn't get the update either. It would be pretty difficult...

    Apple Car Play download initially failed! NOW Finally available....

    Hallelujah! OlJim isn't pulling our legs with a late April 1st joke! Thanks for letting us know! Took about 10 minutes to download, another 10 to install. Engine had to be running on mine to actually install it.

    How do I put my RT Ltd into Neutral and shut off parking brake alarm?

    Fronts really don't matter for valve stem orientation. I usually note where the rear one is, turn bike on and disengage parking brake and roll it to where I think I'll have access. I usually get it right, you can access the rear one as long as it's in the back 1/4 of the revolution or so. Then...

    More 2024 RT Limited Issues - Heated Passenger Handgrips not working!

    Assuming that they will just replace it with another equally sketchy battery. I already binned mine and got the AGM from Batteries Plus when it was just on sale. Takes 15 minutes to swap it out and so far it seems to spin the motor with more authority than the factory one did. It's 350CCA vs...

    2024 RT Ltd display shuts off - back to dealer!

    I took advantage of the 15% sale last week at Batteries Plus to get their AGM battery. Put it on my NOCO charger overnight then installed it. So far so good, it does seem to spin the engine more enthusiastically than the stock battery did. Might be overkill but for $100 figured I'd rather get...

    2024 RT Ltd display shuts off - back to dealer!

    My 2024 has I think that same no-name battery. I looked at it to see what the brand was a while back. It does not spin the motor over very enthusiastically so I may just proactively replace mine with a 350 CCA battery too and not risk it. The Batteries Plus one looks good, is 350 CCA and has...

    2024 RT Ltd display shuts off - back to dealer!

    Depending on your state, you might be able to lemon law it based on number of trips into dealer and/or amount of time it's been out of service, or will be out of service potentially. IANAL, but that's what I'd be looking into were it me. Some states do not cover motorcycles under their lemon...

    Will 2023 S2S accessories work on my 2024 RT?

    I initially connected mine in the garage. Sometimes it will connect, sometimes it won't. Have WiFi mesh system so signal strength in garage is quite good. Even tried connecting to hotspot on my iPhone, which is right next to the Spyder with no luck. Perhaps the flaky WiFi will be addressed in...

    2024 RT Ltd display shuts off - back to dealer!

    I'm willing to give them some time to get it enabled (like a month or two more) before I start to truly lose hope that it's ever coming. Sure, you get more flies with honey. And you also retain loyal customers by actually providing what was promised. :D This is my 3rd Spyder RT, but it may...

    Considering 2023 RT base vs 2023 RT Sea to Sky - is the S2S worth it?

    I have a 2024 RT Limited, so closer to the S2S. Heated seats are nice, my 2017 only had heated grips. I've had no display issues, other than the obvious lack of Apple CarPlay. My heated seats were wired backwards but that was an easy 30 second fix by swapping the cables. Other than the seat...

    2024 RT Ltd display shuts off - back to dealer!

    Yeah works OK for me. Even get the album art on the display. I also get the navigation voice instructions from Apple Maps too, which is better than nothing but not the same as having the map up on the display. I just moved to a new state to having the ACP navigation was the reason I got the...

    More 2024 RT Limited Issues - Heated Passenger Handgrips not working!

    I do not see a connector in the rear storage on mine. That's where it was on my 2017 but seems like it's been moved to the new cubby up front on the new ones.

    2024 RT Ltd display shuts off - back to dealer!

    I am hopeful that they eventually get their "stuff" together and release it very soon, but I am not impressed right now with Can-Am and the fact that they hid this "omission" from everyone, including dealers.
