• 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.

    Dummy Key using Ilco X270 blank - is there a better choice for 2014+ Spyders?

    Dummy key - wait a minute.... ... I'm not sure when to use a dummy key. I made some assumptions about locking and unlocking things - is that why I need a dummy key? Why wouldn't I just use my regular BRP key? I admit, I'm not connecting all the dots... help me finish the picture...

    Going to replace vacuum lines on 2010 RT and I have some questions...

    1. I found that the recommended replacement is Napa part number H466 silicone hose. I assume that this will be the right diameter for my 2010. 2. See pic below: sorry it is so huge but I needed to see the details. 3. I read that all I need to do is cut the new hoses to the same length and...

    Wet Spyder - should I be concerned about all the electronics?

    We have ridden our Spyder in the rain as well. We were traveling with three other two-wheelers going from Northern Indiana to Arkansas last fall. Three of the four of us pulling campers. It was only our third long trip, so we didn’t have lots of trip experiences. Stayed overnight in...
