• 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.

    10 November 1775

    The scene of the youngest Marine escorting the 100 year old Marine was something to see. That boy will never forget that moment.

    I would like to ride past this guy on a 2020 Spyder-Ryker and give him the biker wave

    With enough time and money, I bet they could put airbrakes on a jackass.:bdh:

    I would like to ride past this guy on a 2020 Spyder-Ryker and give him the biker wave

    Looks like the trailer hitch is on sprung weight. I wonder why BRP changed to unsprung weight?

    Have you noticed TP is disappearing again?

    I thought you meant TP (Tire Pressure) was disappearing due to the cold weather. Life is all perspective.

    Belt tensioner position, which is correct, top or bottom?

    Go to an autoparts store and tell them you want a timing belt tension pulley for a 2005 Hyundai Sant Fe with a 2.7L engine. You don't need a part number.

    998cc Vacuum lines - what size and length?

    The hoses are about 4" long. It's more important to have the lengths exactly the same.

    Belt tensioner position, which is correct, top or bottom?

    Yes, JP58, I do. The roller and bearing now turn at half the speed the original did. The larger diameter, smooth roller doesn't whine as it rolls over the ribs on the old-style belts.

    Belt tensioner position, which is correct, top or bottom?

    I don't have a part number. It is a timing belt pulley from a 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe. Do not confuse with the serpentine belt idler pulley.

    Belt tensioner position, which is correct, top or bottom?

    I've had top and bottom. I prefer top. Instead of using the small roller and bearing, which by design rotate at very high rpm, I am using a timing belt pulley from a Hyundai Sonoma. It is 2" in diameter with a very high-quality bearing. It's been working well for several years.

    Am I gone or not?

    Everyone, I just sold my 2011 RTS to a very nice lady from Georgia. Her name is Kathy and I told her to introduce herself on SL and let all of you know she bought my Spyder. It was a cold misty-rainy day when we made the deal. She let her husband ride it home (4 hours) and she drove the car...

    Air compressor repair

    BRP went to two fuse boxes in the frunk on 2012 and later. Mine original video was for a 2011. If you install the aftermarket compressor on the later models, you need to view my video about the compressor fuses.

    Just in case someone wants to dress their Spyder for halloween

    Too bad he didn't have that Tesla Autonomous driving system. He could rock all the way down the road until the wreck.:yikes:

    998cc New to me 2011 RTS with Code P1614

    Cleaning the throttle body should fix it. This should be done on a regular basis, approximately every 10,000 miles. It's a big job to get to the TB so you can reach the throttle plate shaft. The airbox must be removed. Do not try to move the throttle plate if the bike has just been turned...

    OK, that's it. They got caught in the purge.
