• 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....

    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.

    2024 RT Ltd display shuts off - back to dealer!

    Yep, keep hearing "in the next 2 weeks" now for nearly a month and a half. I wouldn't put any money on the fact it'll be out by the first or second week of April either at this point. If I had known I was going to be getting a Spyder without ACP, I would have saved a *boatload* of money by...

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

    Since none of us have ACP on a 2024 Spyder, it's a moot point :) Like anything else, if the phone overheats and shuts down then ACP goes down with it. Not sure how hot the phone is gonna get in that front pocket under black plastic, but guessing pretty warm. I have been using my phone over...

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

    Obviously they have no idea when it'll be ready since they have constantly claimed "in two weeks" for over a month and half now. Every time the "two week" period is about to end, it's magically gonna be ready in "another two weeks". I'm getting a little P.Od at this point. I waited for the 2024...

    There seems to be an abundance of 2019 RT's selling - what gives?

    My 2017 had an adjustment for how soft or firm you wanted the air suspension to be. It auto maintained it at that level. Seems like the 2024s are self-leveling but see no way to adjust how soft or firm it is anymore.

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

    The battery is really easy to replace on the newer Spyders. I swapped mine out on my 2017 in about 5 minutes, the 2024 looks to be about the same. If my stock battery craps out I will just replace it with a Yuasa or some other legit battery myself.
