• 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.

    Quality Control on 2020-21 RT's? Owners comments?

    Got my 2020 in August of last year 5,000 trouble free miles and LOVE IT. Most riding we do is 2 up, headed out for a 2 week trip in July towing the camper and headig out west again. Not a worry in my mind that it will not be trouble free as all of the trips in the past on the 2015 have been...

    New 2021 RT Limited not playing music?! Any ideas why not?

    I do also, is it perfect, no, but nothing ever is. The biggest problem I see with BRP connect is that people do not take the time to learn and understand it. Lets face it, most of us but not all that own a Spyder are an older generation, and we are not known for our computer savvy, or...

    New 2021 RT Limited not playing music?! Any ideas why not?

    Yep, we have to go to bashing BRP without even comprehending what the OP said. He ask specifically about plugging a thumb drive in and it not playing, nothing about BRP connect not working or speakers not working. This is the only thing i do not like about a so called Spyder Lovers website...

    Hotel Parking Lots & Traveling - what precautions do you take?

    Half cover works great! I use that when we park in any town and walk also, set the helmets on the seat, install half cover, and feel fine. Before I used the half cover I would find people sitting on it upon return to the bike, and I would have to carry the helmets with me. Half cover has stopped...

    sea to sky backrest

    The backrest on my 2015 and the 2020 are identical, its the hardware that mounts under the seat that is totaly different.

    Fuses - does anyone have sources for Can-Am fuses??

    Both of my Spyders use a standard automotive fuse available at autozone. https://www.autozone.com/electrical-and-lighting/fuse-and-accessories/bussmann-easyid-assortment-fuse-kit-36-piece/422404_0_0

    Hit a deer today

    So glad you are okay. Wife and I hit one in Wisconsin last year at about 60 and neither one of us were hurt. God is good and these things are awesome. $12,000.00 in damage for us.

    Absolutely Amazing after Installing BajaRon sway bar!

    I had the Kumho and was not impressed. It was fine when it was brand new, but as Peter said, it got pretty scary when the tread started wearing down. I tow a trailer on most of our vacation rides, and I stopped in OH for the night just a few hours from home, because the tire had gotton so bad in...

    Any advice for amp and speaker upgrades on my 2020 RT Ltd?

    I have a 2015 RTL and a 2020 RTL, the 4 speakers on the 2015 sound horrible compared to the 6 speaker system on the 2020. 2015 "0" base, turn it up and it just made the sound mush mouth sounding. 2020 turn up the base and it is still clear and adds a little thump to it. As Mike said, you are not...

    Any advice for amp and speaker upgrades on my 2020 RT Ltd?

    I was thinking the same thing. I turn mine up about half way and the guy riding behind me on a vmax sings along. Sounds like some settings are off, also ,ake sure your phone it is linked to has the "media Volume" turned up all the way. It might give you a warning that loud volume can damage...

    Windshield vent useless?

    On my 2015 RT Limited when towing the camper I would get a lot of exhaust smell, it all went away with the vent on windshield open. Like others have said, the pasanger gets leff buffeting when the vent is open also.

    My turn to vent or be on a soap box or whatever....

    Can't agree more. It seams that whatever we allow by not voicing our opinion against today, or in our generation, is readily accepted as the normal tomorrow, or by the next generation. That does okay evil or vicious speach, but some things must be spoken loud and clear.

    thinking about cross country ride?

    We head out on roughly a 5-thousand-mile trip for two weeks every summer. We run nothing but back roads and prefer to be in the middle of nowhere, the views are nicer! We have never mapped our travel via Spyder Dealers, and if I had to, I wouldn’t own one! somewhere between 45 and 50 thousand...

    Aspen Classic mods 1

    I used speaker box covering or carpet. It can easly be pulled, streached, and contured. Dont pull too hard, it will get too thin and rip. I learned that the hard way. With the spray contact cement, it is very easy to seam piece togather also.

    How long can I expect to have my SENA coms to last during a ride

    I did upgrade to the new HD speakers....WELL worth the money! I like to hear the bass and drums, I can now. My wife said "I don't need those, the stock ones sound good". Then I installed them for her, she can tell the differance and LOVES them.

    Ron, I wouldn't think so, he said plastic links. Couldn't those cheep plastic links be the problem?

    BRP Connect - can I get FM radio sound in my Sena?

    20S does have fm radio and the reception was better than what I had on the 2015 RT Limited. Reception on the 2020 RT Limited is MUCH MUCH better than the 2015!!

    How long can I expect to have my SENA coms to last during a ride

    My 20S headsets last real close to the 10 hour mark, and they will be 6 years old in July. I havent added a USB connection by the passanger grab rails on this bike like the last one. I do have two small USB battery packs that I can carry in my pocket and charge then as we ride, if needed. These...
