• 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.

    Should I get a 2014 now, or wait and get a newer model? Any 'gotta have' features?

    Kenda Kanine front tires - Where’s the beef?

    You know the old saying, you should try something at least once!!! Then come to the dark side. Some people out there are seeing good results with them, being on the front of the bike they should wear well!! Good luck!

    My 2024 RTL Top Case has Excessive Movement - anyone experience this phenomenon?

    That may be why I have not seen it on mine, because I can't leave the dooryard without my co-pilot!!! 🙃 I'll look at mine some more, maybe some rubber bumpers in the right places will stop some of the wobble effect of that case. When you lock that case down with that nut inside, it has nothing...

    Tooting my own horn here - my Elka II Rear shock install went well!

    That bag falls into play more than you think, if you want to know how much drop your bag down to say 10lbs, don't go to far without a hand pump with you! 😉 And yes, you are right about the stock shocks being a lot less than they should be for the money. You are going in the right direction by...

    My 2024 RTL Top Case has Excessive Movement - anyone experience this phenomenon?

    I would say go to the dealer and check out some others on the show floor to see if they do the same as yours. Mines got some play, but I wouldn't say it's really floppy! Good luck!

    My 2011 RT has running rough issues and runs very hot - any ideas?

    There are a whole lot of questions coming your way, so let me start!! You say your parking brake cable came off, did the brake lock up or was it freewheeling? Did you smell a lot of gas smell coming out of the tail pipe? What kind of mod's have you done to your bike, motor wise? It sort of...

    Anyone know the part number and where I can get a replacement Rear Shock Mount Bolt for a 2010 RT?

    Take the one you have and go to the hardware store or auto parts store and ask for the same size in a grade 8, don't have to be metric, get the matching self-locking nut to match!

    Should I get a 2014 now, or wait and get a newer model? Any 'gotta have' features?

    If you are going to do your own services on it, buy a 2014; but if you are not going to work on it, save your money and get something closer to the eight or seven-year-old style, because there are more and more shops not working on the older rides! Be patient and shop around, not in a hurry...

    My 2024 S2S Seat has no strut - did BRP discontinue them?

    Troop beat me to the punch!!! Buy an aftermarket strut, not BRP, unless you want another weak noodle! 😉

    What could cause this Squeal on starting out in first gear?

    You can use either one. I use the 10W40 myself! (y)

    Tooting my own horn here - my Elka II Rear shock install went well!

    You have the manual fill setup on those bikes, right? How much air are you running in the bag, and have you checked the rear shock for damage or to see if it may have loosened up, it should not be banging over bumps!

    Is it OK to run a Kenda KR20 rear with the original front Kendas?

    You'll love them!!!!

    Elka Stage 2 rear shock with loose spacers/bushings (black) - should they be like this?

    If the whole bottom end of the shock is moving, then it's not tight enough, if the center sleeve's moving in the rubber than somethings up with the bottom bushing itself, and should be replaced because it should be doing that! The bracket that the shock sits in should be tightened tight to the...

    What year RT rear shock will fit my RS?

    Well, it looks like you can still buy the cartridge for that shock, you can't get the spring, if you want to go the cheap route! You can also get the bushings for the ends! I find it hard to believe that the Elka was bottoming out, did you call them out to see if they could help you out?

    I have found that all the things I've have done with my Spyders that I thought was going to be a PITA, really wasn't as bad as I dreamed they would be! Enjoy your new ride!!!! :cool: :cool:
