• 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.

    Anybody done a Battery re-location on 2011 Spyder?

    Most battery changes are an hour or less. On a tender, batteries last at least 3 years, maybe more. Seems like a lot of work on such an old machine. Batteries moved to the trunk in 13…..

    Help needed - saddlebag latches hard to open 2020RT Ltd?

    2 things: Bill, there is a service bulletin out for sticking cables. Contact the dealer to order replacements. All cables require lube. Disconnect one end, get it higher than the other end, add a few drops of light machine oil (3 in 1 oil) until the cable slides smoothly in the casing...

    Damaged clip on front end - any easy way to fix?

    I’ve had good luck with “ the last Glue”. Alternatively, a Dzus fastener would work . Our 22 rally has them in the front. Any good hardware store will have them.

    Continuing DESS Issue?

    Pictures: Picture 1 is where it is, picture 2 is snorkel on right, picture 3 is the DESS module. We took the headlights out, but you don’t have to. Just happened to swap in LED bulbs. Fog lights are much easier this way! Joe

    Continuing DESS Issue?

    I did one last month. 6 bolts, loosen the air intake snorkel clamp. Lift off the frame hanger, set on a dolly or something. Pull forward a few inches. Unplug, R/R DESS. A finger full of goop or lanolin on the snorkel boot, slips right on! Bolt up!

    Alaska Leather sheepskin pad vs. butt buffer

    Have a custom saddle made to fit you. I’ve had Russel day long and a couple of Laamseats. I like the Laam better. The sheepskin allows air to circulate, so you are more comfortable. The properly fitted saddle eliminates butt pain. Worth every penny! We normally do 30,000 miles a year. I could...

    Anyone own a Handy BOB Lift? Any better options?

    I have a big blue. It’s great, but it takes up space I don’t have. Was about $750, plus shipping. I’d sell it for half that. Come pick it up - everyone needs a trip to Las Vegas!

    I can not get my front trunk open! Help?

    Pop off the left speaker cover. Look to see if the cable is broken or disconnected. If so, fish it out and tug on the cable, holding the sheath. It will open. If it is disconnected, remove both headlights, and reconnect it. If it’s broken, remove both headlights and replace it. Call if you get...

    Want to set up mechanical handbrake on 2020 RT LTD for an amputee Vet

    Bill, I think it might work, but, you will need added springs. You throw codes if the brake is ridden. A better solution is ISCI, but, a mechanical link from right to left would be easy. I’ll look at that when I get home from Florida.

    Pull the motor to replace Pan gasket on a 15 RTL?

    The engine cradle to remove the engine is not cheap. Not clear on pan gasket. Not sure on why it is not running. I would trailer it to a dealer. Let them diagnose what’s wrong. These are quite oil tight, so, I’m thinking over filled. Good for you trying to help. Good luck! ��

    F3 Black Painted Plastic Scratches - any fixes?

    Ships are safe in port; that’s not what ships are for! They get used, they get blemishes. Scratches, bugs, dirt, rain, hail….. Ride it, wash it, repeat. You can’t rack up miles without racking up scars. Bugs die. It happens. As long as it runs, is properly maintained, and is clean…..it’s a...

    Dealer freight and dealer assembly fees - are these normal?

    Freight is common to all. I just got another ADV bike, and paid far more. BRP charges all dealers the same, otherwise, everyone would fly to the closest dealer to Valcourt, and buy there! The assembly piece is just that - the tech has to uncrate it, put it together, do the inspection, gas it up...
