• 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.

    Rear turn signal stalk elimination

    I have no suggestions, but I would talk to Custom Dynamics if you can't get ahold of ESI. ESI sold out their line to Custom Dynamics several years ago, and are now just a reseller.

    Average Miles Before Having to Add Oil? My machine is sucking it down ...

    That's quite a bit, more than a quart in a thousand. Let us know how a different oil works out. If there is no change I'd report it to your dealer.

    Cellphone Interface Kit

    If you have no particular need for the CB or other features of the BRP comm system, you may want to look at a wired comm system like the Starcom1 or Autocom, or a wireless system like the Sena. These can all be integrated with your cellphone.

    RT-622 ?

    All trailer connections are female at the vehicle and male at the trailer (except for the ground) to prevent accidental short circuits. Your RT (or ST) should come with an extra lock cylinder that is keyed the same. Your dealer can intall it in your trailer.

    Average Miles Before Having to Add Oil? My machine is sucking it down ...

    As was said, be sure you check the oil by the manual.....at full operating temperature (after a ride) and with the dipstick screwed in. The oil you are using does not meet the BRP spec, which calls for a motorcycle oil. That may be adding to your oil usage. The oil should not be labeled for...

    UURG new rear tire

    It can also be due to ballooning of the thin-carcass tire at freeway speeds.

    My 2013 RTS and the evap canister puking fuel adventure.

    You sure have a Spyder at the far end of the heating spectrum. I'm really sorry to hear it. I think the documentation you are collecting may help push for a solution. I agree that there should be minimal fumes escaping from an emissions system vent...or it is not meeting the EPA standards.

    reset parking brake light

    The light resets when the problem is cleared. Recheck everything...your problem still exists.

    RT-622 ?

    You could use it, but the connector at the trailer end of the tongue won't match, so you would have to buy some new connectors and change it. Easier and cheaper to buy a square-4 pigtail and replace the round-9 on your trailer or splice it in and have both. Keep in mind that the 2010 RT-622...

    reset parking brake light

    Classic symptoms of low brake fluid. Top off the reservoir...it looks full even when it isn't, and between the incline and applying the brakes it can go low enough to trip the level switch. Also check the brake pads. Worn brake pads can accentuate or cause the same thing. The brake pads have...

    My Spyder s screwed .......

    Any security screws on a Spyder are there for a reason...they are not to be removed. On an RT they hold the posts that slip into the rubber grommets that hold the body panel in place. These are angled, and indexed to hold them in the correct position. Remove the standard Torx screws then pull...

    My 2013 RTS and the evap canister puking fuel adventure.

    It is not only the '13s that have this issue, although it is aggravated on the '13 RTs and STs by the excessive heat which can push over fuel as it expands if the tank is too full.

    LH indicator not self cancelling

    If the switch sticks to the left, as many do, it will not cancel. If the switch is centering itself, the steering angle sensor should be zeroed with BUDS.

    First problem on my 2012 spyder rts sm5

    See the list of reasons above. It is usually one of those. proper adjustment and lubrication are critical.

    Illusive Brake Failure Code

    Good point. Odd or excessive brake wear or brake problems, or even slightly low brake fluid can cause brake failure warnings, although some of them do not trigger the brake icon.

    First problem on my 2012 spyder rts sm5

    The usual causes... Too much stuff in the trunk, pushing up on the lid. Weatherstrip or trunk liner pulled off the lip or improperly installed, pushing up on the lid. Trunk latch improperly adjusted. Trunk latch inadequately lubed. Trunk switch arm bent or broken (easily done).

    My 2013 RTS and the evap canister puking fuel adventure.

    Sorry, but just below the filler neck is overly full. "Full" is about an inch down. Filling too fast will push over fuel. too. It is a bad design. For best results insert the nozzle barely into the tank and fill by hand, as slowly as possible...especially nearing the top. Stop when the...
