• 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.

    Had a New Piece of Bling Made!

    OK! Finally! I intended to make a video, but I just don't have the time. Sorry, not that anyone really cares. But we all have dreams that we have to let go of. I hope you enjoyed the experience! Thank you for your participation. This is Seth, one of our employees. He did the drawing. He has no...

    Why would I have this Front wheel shake on a 2011 RT??

    Good catch! It could also be Ride-On if it sat for an extended period of time. That would fix itself as well if ridden. Especially on hot pavement.

    Has anyone tried the Can-Am factory optional swaybar on their Ryker?

    The BRP upgrade bar for the Ryker will give some handling improvement. But the fact that the OEM plastic links are still used with confidence is an indicator that it isn't that much different. There are a few things that come into play here. We didn't build a sway bar for the Ryker just because...

    New 2012 RT-S Owner - Which Wheels? Tune-up Suggestions?

    15" wheels are a good move on the older Spyders. Better handling and tire availability as well.

    Rear tire mileage - How are you people getting 10,000 + miles on Kenda tires?

    Like Jackhartjr said. Car tires are not recommended by BRP because they want you to buy their tires. No one is buying Kenda's because they perform well. So BRP can't market them for their quality or service life. You're not putting a car tire on a motorcycle wheel. You're putting a car tire on...

    Can anyone explain what aftermarket end links actually DO?

    To be fair, the plastic links hold up fairly well with the stock sway bar. Though some production runs have been problematic. They stretch and compress which will fatigue them over time and can lead to breakage. Especially if you are an aggressive rider, ride 2-up, or do other things that work...

    Had a New Piece of Bling Made!

    Yes, They are for sale. I will get them up on the webpage soon. I apologize for not finishing the raffle drawing as promised. Things got busy Friday and I wanted to do a video. So, it will now be Monday, if I can pull it off then. Monday's tend to be hectic.

    Spyder suddenly shut down when I stopped at a light!! Started right up after a bit tho - ever happened to you? Any heat sensor do this? Any ideas?

    What smog device did the dealer remove? Good question from Gwolf regarding fan operation. The fans should have been running in your situation. We could do a better job of helping if we could get come feedback.

    Can anyone explain what aftermarket end links actually DO?

    There was a recall on OEM end links a good number of years ago. They were snapping like popcorn. Turned out that BRP was using multiple suppliers. One supplier was skimping on the kevlar fiber component. You had to determine if you had a link from the bad batch to get a replacement set. It was a...

    Oil level check results confusing to me

    Idling for 10 minutes is a bad idea in any case. As already mentioned, riding is a much better approach, and more fun to boot!

    Can anyone explain what aftermarket end links actually DO?

    SlingMods does a great job with their videos. The OEM plastic end links can break even with the OEM bar. But certainly, they are not going to last if an upgrade sway bar is installed. Some change just the end links for safety. They will give you a slight improvement in handling. Some notice...

    You Don't Know What You've Got Till It's Gone

    Lamont gave me tentative dates in September. But since he has not made them official, I don't feel I'm authorized to say anything. I'm sure he will come out with the dates in time for people to make plans.

    Baja Ron Ultimate Sway Bar Endlink falling off - anyone else experiencing this issue?

    That is great news! The torque spec is critical as is the loctite (which is supplied with the kit). When an installer decides they are not important, problems can occur. Glad you got it squared away.

    Battery/Starting slow spin - is this common & why doesn't it start like a normal motorcycle?

    If you get a battery with less than 350 CCA, you're going to have issues with the Spyder much sooner than you should. Whoever is selling you 300 CCA batteries for your Spyder is doing you no favors. But no. More CCA's than needed makes no difference to the starter. But having insufficient amp...

    Bad news if you want a set of 165/60R-15 Vredestein Quatracs from tire rack!

    The Conti-ProContact is a decent tire. I think you will be satisfied with that one.
