• 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.

    Why does my Display switch from light to dark all on its own?

    There was a recent software update to fix random/not switching correctly with the day/night sensor. Check to see if you have the 50.1 dash firmware. You can display it from your settings menu if memory serves me right.

    USB Clarification 2021 RTL - which plugs do what?.

    The two in the trunk are for charging only. The one in the glove box can be used for charging too but it is mainly used to connect the BRP Go App so you can display the supported apps in your dash like Sygic GPS. If you plan on trying BRP Go, it takes a bit to learn so watch some videos and...

    BRP Connect, a current status

    Since it is used, make sure you first delete the current paired devices. I believe you can only have two phones at a time so the slots may have been already used from the last owner.

    Seat/Frunk release cable addition - where do you put the handle?

    I can remove my left upper side panel on my 21 Spyder RTL. You can lift the seat enough to get to the pull tab. You can also pop up the rear seat so you could route the cables all the way back there. Wife has locked the key in the Frunk once and had to run and get the spare. Since then, I've had...

    Please: Newbie needs help with BRP Connect?!?

    I use BRP Go with Sygic all the time with very little issues. Some things you need to be aware of as follows. 1. Be sure that the phone is only connected to the bike via Bluetooth and not to your helmet as well. 2. The dash requires both Bluetooth and cable connection for it to work, hence the...

    I have a 21 Spyder RTL and there is a Service Bulletin out to do a mandatory flash of the ECM that fixes a low compression starting issues. I had to download the latest version Buds 2 from Powersports-diag. It still says it is the 21.1.0 which was the version I had originally but it did not show...

    Cluster Update 50.1 available.

    I got mine powersports-diag.com and it worked out of the box, I did not have to contact them. I did notice that they may have fixed the sensor for the day/night auto switching. It appears to be working much better, still have to do some more testing.

    Just got my Buds software and found that there is a version 50.1 firmware available for the dash cluster. I loaded it but not sure what was updated and can't find any information on it.

    2020 RTL - Anyone think they will ever update the bluetooth to work with other device

    I use my phone for music via Bluetooth. I have a large large library of music but all my music is stored on my server at home and stream it or download the music I want to listen too if I will be in a no service area. I do this using a Plex Server and Plex Amp on my phone. As for the audio on...

    Will Using 87 Octane impact performance?

    I just put in 87 last fill up as I read that it would be ok at low alt and not on hot days, we are only at about 400 feet here and was about 68 out. Went for about a 60 mile ride and stopped at a boat landing for a view. Leaving the parking lot it has a steep grade and I stopped at the top...
