• 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.

    Motorcycle mini camper

    I was looking at several motorcycle campers and came across these. Anyone know if these would be too heavy for a Spyder to pull fully loaded? Braking would be my biggest concern, but I could be wrong. I'm sure they aren't cheap as well, but I don't have any pricing information...

    I enjoy my Spyder

    I too have no complaints and have had relatively good luck with my 2013 RT LTD. The heat issue that many 2013's experienced was never problem with mine. I did have the recall service done though with the air scoops installed and it just made it even better. Recently I did have P1614 error when...

    Throttle boby issue?

    I had a scheduled appointment today at my dealership to have the P1614 error resolved on my RT. It turns out that the throttle body needed to be serviced and cleaned. The service tech there was very supportive and explained what needed to be done. I also had the air filter and plugs changed, as...

    RT and F3-T trailer hitch?

    I was looking at the new F3-T that my dealer has in the showroom and noticed that the swing arm looks a lot like the one used on the RT. Does anyone know if the BRP trailer hitch from an RT will fit on an F3-T or the F3 LTD? I know the catalog has different part numbers for the RT and F3-T's...

    Integrated brake/signal kit for Givi/BRP hardbags?

    When I had my 2008 Spyder GS, I had the givi cases and added the Custom Dynamic kit for the running lights. You will need the triple play kit to make them work as running/brake and turn signal. http://www.customdynamics.com/givi_led_lights.htm http://www.customdynamics.com/givi_led_lights.htm

    Throttle boby issue?

    My dealer is closed on Mondays, But I'll get in touch with them on Tuesday. It sounds like I need the service done to have the throttle bodies cleaned and checked out. I'm over 20,000 miles on my RT, so I guess it is time to get it in for another service anyhow. I just had the front tires...

    Throttle boby issue?

    In the last month or so my 2013 RT has been getting a check engine failure and turns out it has a P1614 error on the display when I checked it. I did some research and it looks like a throttle body issue. It seems this was a chronic problem on some the earlier RT's back in 2010. Has anyone else...

    My new BRP toy

    I need to try that "Snowshoe" It's sounds like a nice drink to warm up with after a ride. As far as young, Well I'm getting older all the time, but can't seem to give up my motor toys. I guess in some ways that is what keeps me young at heart. I just wish the rest of my body parts would...

    My new BRP toy

    If all this rain was snow, I think we would be knee deep in it by now! I remember those Blizzards from the 80's they were fast in that era.

    My new BRP toy

    Now that my spyder is put up for the winter, I hope to enjoy my new BRP ride for the winter. I sold my 2010 skidoo 1200 TNT in October. I decided to buy a new 2016 skidoo Blizzard with the 1200 4-tech engine. This should be a sweet ride this winter. I just hope we get the snow to enjoy it...

    Are you still riding in the Northeast?

    Well, I decided to finally put the RT to rest for the winter. Yesterday I washed and polished both the Spyder and the RT622 trailer. Today I rearranged the garage to store them both in there place. It's lightly snowing outside as I write this message, so I think it was time to park the Spyder...

    Are you still riding in the Northeast?

    I still may ride, but am planning to put the RT up for the winter soon. We did get hit with some light snow activity late on Tuesday in northern VT. The trucks were out salting some of the roads that had iced over. Once that starts I don't like taking the spyder out. I'm not disappointed...

    F3 Cross Country = RT wannabe?

    I like the fact that the new F3-T and F3 Limited will have a trailer hitch option. This is good news for anyone needing to haul a trailer. I'm not sure though that this hitch will work on all other F3's. The catalog only lists it for the F3-T and F3-LTD.

    100 watt bulbs that some of us installed in our RTs or other bikes (posting for Mike!

    This is what I have installed on my 2013 RT LTD. I like the results so far. They certainly are much brighter than the OEM bulbs. http://www.xenondepot.com/9005-LED-headlight-kit-p/9005-led-hl.htm

    BRP Freedom Trailer VS 622 Trailer

    I have a 622 trailer and I'm real happy with it. I'm sure the freedom trailer is a good trailer and my guess is you can't go wrong with either trailer. Some will say the 622 is heavy, but I've had it packed full and about as heavy a load that I would put in it, mostly camping gear, and never had...

    Slingshot has me curious!

    I own a 2013 RT LTD. I had a 2008 GS before that. I took a demo ride on a new 2014 RT when they first came out with the new 1330 engine. Recently I had a chance to ride the new Slingshot and got to test drive a demo F3 that my dealer had. All these vehicles are fun to ride. I enjoyed the...

    NADA Average selling price?

    I know the feeling. I test drove an F3 yesterday and all I can say is FUN!

    Took a demo ride today

    Yes, Driving it was like being in a small sports car, but with a more open cockpit. The slingshot does have a small glove box on the passenger side built into the bodywork. It's more a three wheel car in my opinion and not a motorcycle.
