• 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.

    No more sun glare on phone/maps

    If you know anyone with a 3d printer it is pretty easy to design a sunshade for your phone. The best part is since you are designing it from scratch you can make it whatever size you want and even make it like I did where you can keep your case on. My case is has magnets in it, and attaches to...

    Ignition key 2018 Spyder RT

    These covers have gone up since I bought them but they are really nice and have colors to match most of our bikes

    Interesting video

    This popped up on youtube for recommended videos. Interesting, but I think his bike is too old to draw some of his conclusions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqISa4o8yks&t=544s

    Hate to be a party pooper but...

    A lot of great advice here. I just wanted to add that if you are feeling like you made a mistake purchasing the Spyder, I think those of us who came from 2 wheels all felt that way at some time. Just give it more time, it took me like 1500 miles to feel comfortable! But I still remember that day...

    I got it!!!!!

    Congratulations, I have a 2018 RTL also. The only way for me to learn the BRP connect was to see it used, so I suggest youtube. Just search BRP connect tutorial and there are some good videos to help you. Like you heard there is a steep learning curve and you might end up going to bluetooth...

    How do you avoid hitting potholes? 3 wheels makes it difficult!

    I give you credit thinking of this before you even got one! You are right, you will have 3 points of contacts with the road vs 1 or 2. You will get the feel after a while and if it isn't too bad you can line it up between the front and rear wheel. I do a lot of biking on rural roads, so roadkill...

    Newbie Here: BRP Connect worth using?

    It's really something you have to try for yourself. I would never try to figure it out on my way home though! I can find my way around pretty well but it is certainly not user friendly. You have other options through bluetooth and the radio. When I got my 2018 they had a voucher for free genius...

    Service question

    I will be taking my RT in for service soon. My question is does it make sense to take it to the dealer where I bought it? It is a lot farther than other dealers and I really don't want to waste the time if I don't have to. My reasoning is it makes sense to take it to the place I bought it so...

    BRP Connect Survey

    I said I use it every time, I hope if they get too many people say they don't use it they won't put enough effort into fixing it!

    No more going in frunk to turn phone back on after stops

    If you look at the second picture it is in the left side pocket. It is a usb port used to connect to the BRP app. I have a 2018 RTL

    No more going in frunk to turn phone back on after stops

    Most of you might know this already, but I just figured it out and hope it can help some other people with the same problem! Every time I stop to get gas or ?, I have to restart my phone to get BRP connect to sync up again. Not a big deal, but really annoying. I bought an extended length cable...

    Smart Phone as GPS for Spyder?

    They actually make shields for phones. I have one of these for the screen on a drone I have. A lot of fiddling around trying to get it right but it does work. Here is just a sample of one on Amazon (just search iphone sun shade.)...

    Is it me? Short RANT

    Definitely not just you! I have dog food on automatic reorder. First bag was lost (FedEx also!) so I cancelled and had them send another one. Second order said "on the truck for delivery" for 4 days straight. I finally gave up and went to the store to get it (dog was about as patient as I was.)...

    Question battery\Trickle charger

    I agree, probably the easiest harness to connect/disconnect. I was surprised to find this already on my 18RTL

    BRP Connect Version 2.13

    Maybe you don't have IOS? Because mine says NEW in bright yellow.

    BRP Connect Version 2.13

    The app update for IOS says it fixes known issues. I don't think this is true, because the update isn't that big! The only addition I see is a new app called BRP GO. It looks like a navigation app for snowmobiles, but it already has such a bad customer rating I didn't even bother downloading it.

    Planning a trip

    Good advicex2! I hate freeways, too, usually a very straight line boring route. Genius maps has an option also where you can tick a box to avoid highways.

    What are your top 5 things before Winterization?

    Never heard the nightlight trick, I bet that works! Mice got a hold of the wiring in my ATV last winter so I will arm my garage.

    Need help with BRP Connect

    Thanks for all the advice. I should have mentioned this was a genius map app. And my battery, cable, and everything was fine. I didn't want to ruin the whole day so I went for a ride anyway and was using the bluetooth for music all day. When I got home I tried to switch over to BRP and no...
