• 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.

    2014 RTS ate a belt today!!! Teeth missing!

    My dad was riding my 2014 RTS today and all of a sudden it was making banging noises. We pulled over and I investigated. There was a section of belt about a foot long with no teeth at all and a few random spots missing teeth. I have no idea what caused it. I was thinking maybe a stone got in...

    I decided to change my phone mount to tackform!

    I bought a tackform recently because of all the good stuff people said about it. It is sitting in a box now. It does not securely hold a phone. I went back to the RAM Quick Grip XL. It is IMPOSSIBLE for a phone to fall out.

    BRP denies warranty claim on water in fuse box - any ideas on next steps?

    For people asking how water gets in the fuse box, be aware, there are 2 covers on the fuse box. The first cover in the frunk simply keeps water out of the frunk and has a foam gasket. It has nothing to do with keeping water out of the fuse boxes. The second cover is actually on the fuse box...

    SlingMod running lights don't light! Any ideas what I've done?

    If they plug into the accessory plug on the right side, check the polarity of that plug. Some plugs have the polarity reversed. My friend had that issue. An accessory would not work when plugged into the factory accessory plug. We checked and sure enough the polarity was reversed. I guess...

    Is there a way of Adjusting the ACS suspension system?

    You are correct. Longer rod = softer ride, shorter rod = harder ride.

    Spyder dead even after replacing battery - ideas?

    Doesn't the 2011 have the battery under the seat with that crazy ground wire with the bolt you should not loosen? Maybe that bolt for the ground cable on the frame side is loose. That would cause no power anywhere.

    What is the Learning curve on BUDS like?

    The learning curve is dependent on what you want to do. I don't think its helpful for electrical gremlins. I like BUDS more than BUDS2. But you need BUDS2 for 2017 and up. You should get a downloadable manual when you buy it. Mine came on a disc, so you will need a way to read a disc...

    2020 RTL Will Not Start - what to check? Fuses?

    Sounds like the carbon buildup problem like I had. Turns over very freely? ECM update needed. Carbon removal needed by the dealer. Good luck!

    First problem with my 2021 RT - side case won't open! Suggestions?

    Remove the passenger seat. Then remove to small black plastic panels around the rear grab handles. You will then be able to see and operate the latches by hand. This will make it easy to diagnose your problem. I am willing to bet your latches are corroded. I cleaned, painted, and lubricated...

    Will a Mower Lift raise the front of my F3?

    A 750 lb rated lift like the MoJack would lift it, BUT... the problem is there is not enough room under the front of the spyder to clear all the jack parts. I already looked into it. I wish I had the connections to buy some steel, because I would build a spyder specific jack and sell them. It...

    Heat and brake fade on 2020+ RTs

    On a recent ride, I noticed the brakes on my 2021 Sea to Sky were a little squishy after a couple hours of riding. It was a hot day in the low 90s. I wasn't sure what was causing the issue. Then I put my hand on the black body panel that covers the brake reservoir side. It was so hot that...

    VSS Fault at first power-up - anyone else?? Normal??

    I had this problem until I switched to a lithium battery. A low battery will cause a vss error on startup. I tried 2 new yuasa batteries and the issue continued when the bike sat for a week or two. No issues with my lithium battery.

    Does an Exhaust fm a 2019 and earlier RT fit a 2020+ RT?!?

    Yes. Fits perfectly. I transferred the bypass and two brothers muffler from the 2014 to the 2021 with no issues. I now have Akrapovik muffler and love it.
