• 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.

    Does the ECU need re-mapping after cat-delete?

    I’m not a mechanic nor a technician, but my RTS is running just fine since I did the cat delete. That’s all that I can say, other than I’m glad that I did it.

    What's the going price for an alignment on 2017 RT?

    I don’t know about that Mike....my dealer has the Rolo. They checked mine, at my request, a year after I bought it and all was well. I wasn’t experiencing any problem, just wanted confirmation.

    Your Weather News @ May Edition 2023

    Up here in southern British Columbia Canada we’re about to experience a very early Heat Wave with temperatures in the mid 90’s F. for the next few days. Today will be my last riding day for what I hope will only be a week. Highs today predicted to be about 80° F., but tomorrow on ........ 95°F...

    Its hard to get off 2 two wheels and onto three.

    I just turned 80 3 weeks ago. I got my first 2 wheeler when I was 16, which translates to having my m/c licence for 64 years. I also had about a 20/25 year hiatus, but here I am, now on a 2014 RTS and loving it. The learning curve to transition from 2 wheels to 3 does take a while. To my way...

    Want to get new front tires, not sure what to get? 2021 RTL

    That is much the way I first felt. The OEM Kendas (all three) were great. Then when I replaced them with the same.....oops. They were terrible. Now have Vredesteins on front and General Altimax on the rear. Great, smooth ride!

    What is the Cover Size for a Pedal Box?

    I would think that you’ll have better luck asking someone like Lamonster Garage.

    Anyone know who makes the OEM CB Antenna?

    Sorry, I’ e had my ‘14 RTS now for 8 years now, and this is the FIRST post that I’ve seen that refers to an OEM CB antenna. I didn’t realize that there was such a beast. I just assumed that they were aftermarket. In any event, to answer you post, I do not know. The last m/c CB that I had...

    Is it possible to delete start up routine?

    Yup.....and most of my fuel stops are longer....that’s why I said “might” qualify.

    Dealer says Demo Rides are not possible - any suggestions?

    Y My opinion? It’s all a bunch of Bull Hockey. They saw you coming and started rubbing their hands. If it was me, I would have told them to get stuffed and then walk out the door and NEVER LOOK BACK! My blood pressure starts to rise whenever I see another posting to this thread...

    Would be nice to have a 2020 & Up RT only category on here

    If we're voting on the sub-forum thought, my vote goes to the NO. What I would very much like to see, is that EVERYONE put in WHAT THEY RIDE, be it an RT, and F3 or a RYKER......and what YEAR. It's so easy to put in what your ride on you signature, but it appears as though the majority of...

    Is it possible to delete start up routine?

    Don’t be too fast saying that Pete. I’ve ried that routine on my ‘14 RTS many times and I have yet to have it work. The only time that I can just turn the key and start it is during quick fuel stops....SOMETIMES!

    Want to get new front tires, not sure what to get? 2021 RTL

    Mikey, when I put Vredesteins on the front of my ‘14 RTS, they were a direct fit.....no fender shimming.

    Dealer says Demo Rides are not possible - any suggestions?

    This is exactly the way my dealer treated me, and I might add....is exactly the way it SHOULD be. $30,000.00 is a good chunk of change. If I’m laying out that much, I WANT TO KNOW WHAT I’M GETTING. If I had NOT been allowed a test ride, I would not be on my Spyder today. I really wonder if...

    Review: BRP Go! is going...going...GONE!!

    Just my $0.02 worth. I agree.....BRP is not perfect, but then again neither is GM. My chevy malibu does NOT keep perfect time, the AM radio does NOT extend that far. My sirius/xm radio loses signal a lot....I can see the sky, why can’t it see me? My point is NO Mfr. is perfect...they all...

    Dealer says Demo Rides are not possible - any suggestions?

    With that reasoning, I take it that you test drive an automoble that you’re looking at by moving it in the parking lot also. As far as I’m concerned a test ride is a ride out on the street and travel at least one or two miles, preferably, if you’re an actual interested buyer, for an hour or two...

    What's your 2022 RTL getting for gas mileage?

    One other thing to consider.......I’m “old school” Canadian. Different size gallons. U.S. gallons is 128 fl. oz. Imperial gallon is 160 fl. oz. Prior to our going metric, we used the Imperial gallon and I still figure my mileage in mpg. (Thats miles per Imperial gallon). My ‘14 RTS averages 45...

    Dealer says Demo Rides are not possible - any suggestions?

    And why should a motorcycle be any different than a car, as far a test riding/ driving? The dollar spent really isn’t all that much different. It’s still a big chunk of change.

    Dealer says Demo Rides are not possible - any suggestions?

    Ever bike, both new and used, that I have purchased has always been available to test ride PRIOR to my purchasing. I would NEVER purchase either a new automoble OR a new motorcycle without being able to drive/ride off the dealers lot. It has always been my understanding that dealers get...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    It would appear like you were installing Magic Mirrors, but... that’s only a guess on my part. An explanation of what we’re seeing would help a lot.

    A Spyder and a Ryker, who has both and why

    Reading these first two posts got me to wondering about road clearance. How is the road clearance on the Ryker as compared with the RT and/or F3? Much greater?
