• 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.

    Downshifting vs Braking

    Ron, of the three weights, 5/40, 10/40, or 15/40, can you rate your first choice, or does it even matter?

    Downshifting vs Braking

    Yo Mike, no war here, light on/off foot brake is my method of choice, unless of course conditions dictates differently. Nanny pretty much figures it all out for me and makes riding a real joy.

    Need a Seat Strut with more lift - any suggestions?

    Mikey, I've said more than once, I do love my 2020 RTL, but holy cow, you'd think that BRP would wake up and do this one little thing right and not inconvenience the customer. I do understand that BRP is big, way to big even have this on their radar.

    Need a Seat Strut with more lift - any suggestions?

    Sounds like my experience right down to the wood prop. The OEM was replaced by the dealer under warranty, the second one failed soon after replacement. I was not gonna waste another day at the dealer and have it fail too. Freaking stick works every time.

    Nothing wrong with the question Ron, there's always that 1%, no matter what.

    998cc Anyone tried a 20-50 syn oil?

    Good information Ron. If Canam is selling 5/40 blend, then I'm way good with Rotella Syn 5/40. I'm probably getting way nit picky with the oil thing anyway. I need to do my yearly change soon, so your oil change kit awaits, minus the oil of course. :-)

    998cc Anyone tried a 20-50 syn oil?

    Following this thread, always find the oil threads fascinating, some use pop corn to indicate ho hum. I'm a Rotella full synthetic fan, however blend would probably work as well, but what's a buck or two between oils? I prefer the 10/40 full synthetic but Rotella just doesn't sell it, at least...

    Anyone else dealing with this sort of Gas Mileage?

    I'll keep that in mind, referring to your post #11.

    Anyone else dealing with this sort of Gas Mileage?

    Is there a danger to over filling, say 'almost' to the cap? I asked the question above about over filling, but reading yours, 'filling to the lip', answers my question.

    Issues with Kenda Tires or Not?

    Yes sir, been on the Blue Ridge several times, gets better every time, Dragon not bad either. For sure I will give you a call, a heads up for an appointment. This could be fun now that I think on it.

    Issues with Kenda Tires or Not?

    Thanks Ron, if things work out and the creek don't rise, I'll give you a head's up. Cool story about the guy from Chicago, a nice day ride. I know I ain't getting out of the driveway without the Mrs. on the pillion, she loves to ride on that machine.

    Issues with Kenda Tires or Not?

    Ron, I keep following, you are a trooper, sharing look up and Canam Spyder knowledge. Thinking out loud, it's only 800 or so miles from Sebring FL to Greenville TN. Catch a Days Inn for 60 buck or so for over nighter, get everything done to my 20 RTL, then go sight seeing and mountain carving...

    Issues with Kenda Tires or Not?

    Oh yeah, looking forward to these results, I am particularly interested in the Knines but then the poll is not specific, maybe the comments will be helpful. 56K miles on Vredsteins, oh my! That is on big PR sales incentive.

    Completed my semi annual "lie on my back and add air to the rear tire" routine

    I'm 91, and I'm telling you, it ain't easy doing the 'lay down' method to check the air pressure. Jus sayin', anyone here that says it's an easy job, is not 91.

    What AirHawk model/size for 2020 RTL ?

    Good point Bob, I do believe the smaller size would work better unless one has the larger behind.

    Choosing between Spyder or Tri-Glide? Drawbacks for either?

    Oh yeah, go with ARtraveler's comment, that covers the situation very nicely.
