• 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.

    Belt Tension - anyone know the distance between sprockets? '22 F3

    It would vary depending on the amount of stretch in the belt. If it was 2000mm between pulleys with a new belt and it stretched 2% the new distance would be 2040

    Do I need to do any more about last year's pulley recall on my F3?

    Keep in mind too and I believe this isn't widely known, BRP have wanted to set a deadline (Sept this year) on work being done and ceasing the recall. In Aus, they've been told "nope" by our relevant authorities, but we seem to have tighter consumer controls here.

    Any ideas to dim bright Headlights in the mirrors?

    I have mine so that I have to bob down a little to see what is behind. Almost 50% of my riding is at night and I too would kill to have day/night mirrors

    Need to tap into Reversing Light in '17 RTL Wiring - ideas where?

    The wiring harness that came with my BRP kit has a 7-way bypass relay with only 4 connected/available. I removed it from the harness and re-terminated the Deutsche fitting in the Y piece with one of these: TP7AS - https://www.amazon.com.au/Maypole-3877A-7-Way-Pass-Buzzer/dp/B003H5FX6Q. After...

    Any Long-Term impacts of A/Mkt Suspension, Lighting, Performance Upgrades?

    I have 87000 kms on my '17 RTL and have aftermarket suspension, tyres, lights, drive belt dampener, and relay for the trailer wiring connection harness. I still have the bike serviced at a dealership and the tech shows me everything, and I mean everything he removes for repair or is wearing...

    Need to tap into Reversing Light in '17 RTL Wiring - ideas where?

    Hi Snowbelt Spyder, Yes you've picked it. The 622 trailer has an identical light and the only one that isnt connected is the reversing/backup lamps Its now 6:00pm Wednesday here and you are 18hrs behind so I imagine it midnight Tue/Wed if you're in Idaho.

    Paintless Dent Removal - does it need a special glue? Or what?

    Thanks GWolf, It sounds like I might not have cleaned/prepped the surfaces enough. I'll try using some rubbing alcohol on the spot to see if I get a better outcome.

    Need to tap into Reversing Light in '17 RTL Wiring - ideas where?

    I need to tap into the reversing light circuit for my trailer Bypass relay and tried to locate the reversing light circuit in the schematic. I can locate the reverse button but nothing else (Position N8 on the schematic). Am I having a boy look or is it genuinely not included in the schematic?

    Paintless Dent Removal - does it need a special glue? Or what?

    I purchased a Paintless Dent Removal kit and already own a Hot Glue gun. I had no success with the process - it seems the "tip" dislodges from the panel without pulling the dent out (1/2" hailstone dent). I am using an ordinary hot glue gun, is there a specific type of glue stick required for...

    Should my 2018 RT Ltd ACS inflate/deflate when going/stopping? What PSI?

    I have an '17 RTL and had an '18 RTL on loan while mine was in for work, putting 2000k plus on it. I find on both that when I start the day for days travel, I sit on level ground (2 or 1 up) for 10 seconds to let the suspension settle itself and level up. After that it rarely changes.
