• 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.

    Have you noticed Sirius XM song selections are messed up?

    Never renewed Sirius after the trial period. I use You tube Music and Amazon Music, so I can pick and choose what I want to listen to, not what some idiot thinks I want to listen to. Oh, and country music ain't country music anymore, at least not what I grew up with. Have you ever heard "country...

    Can Am - Great Ideas vs. Poor Execution. What are your thoughts?

    Seeing as how BRP has the reverse trike market cornered, they really have no incentive to build Spyders to what Spyders can and truly would be if there were serious competition, say Honda for example. If/when they ever build a reverse trike based on the Gold Wing engine and architecture, BRP...

    Anybody Know what this pin plug might be for?

    The bike was bought new, had 9 miles on it, so I don't think it was something that was added, although you never know. I'm not really motivated to chase it down to find out. Would rather ride it than spend a day taking it apart, following the wire, finding out that it's not going to anything...

    Anybody Know what this pin plug might be for?

    Weird, I can see it when I click on it. The image is in the cloud, not on my phone or computer. I can't find "manage attachments" anywhere. I'll try it another way. https://photos.app.goo.gl/Z6NpASV8RZuSkQMy9 Oops! Sorry I posted it twice. Brain dead today after celebrating (Read Vodka...

    Anybody Know what this pin plug might be for?

    What this pin plug might be for? It is on the right side (brake pedal side) right at the seam and to the rear of the gas tank. 2017 RTS https://photos.google.com/photo/AF1QipObdz5Bdi3tbWHSIPmCHM4rSOLlfoRkbAuZr_c

    HELP - can't get antenna gasket back in properly - any ideas?

    I recently replaced the OEM antenna with a shorty from Spyderpops. There was no gasket like the one you illustrate in your picture. The boot that came with the shorty fit way better than the OEM, and as far as I can tell it seems to be watertight. But getting the stock antenna off was an...

    My first ride in the rain

    :agree: I use RainX for plastic also. I've ridden in the rain many times, the worst in Vermont at night going over a mountain on very dark roads. The rain would just sheet off the windshield and helmet visor and greatly improved vision through the windshield and visor. Fortunately, there were...

    HowTo: Used the water meter hole for Baja Ron bar R&R

    Now that's probably not a great idea environmentally and all. But it probably gives the meter reader fits.

    Your opinion on iMotorsports?

    Things may not be the same now, but when I bought my (New, leftover) 2017 RT-S in July 2018, I was very pleased with the whole process. I traded in my 2013 RT-L, told them what I would like to get for it, and they agreed, no problem. The paperwork, got done really quickly, and I was lucky that a...

    2021 RTL - would someone check their Left Deflector for me please?

    Well, today is probably the day that you should buy a B.E.S.T. extended warranty since the factory disappears in 7 days.

    I had a run in with BRP’s infamous Loctite x2

    Yeah, BRP seems to really like that yellow thread lock. I had quite the adventure getting my antenna off to swap it with a shorty. Never knew a single antenna could have so mant pieces.

    Help with a phone mount please - can I simply get a longer bolt?

    Have you entertained contacting whoever you bought it from and asking them to send you the correct bolt? Might be easier than trying to find the correct one on your own.

    Email from BRP about Horsepower for Ski-Doos - why not Spyders too?

    Not the whole thing, just an excerpt about horsepower, and it makes me wonder why the Spyder lineup doesn't get it, or at least some of it. I mean you can kill yourself jus as dead on a Ski Doo as you can on a Spyder. With the introduction of the Rotax 850 E-TEC Turbo R with Water Injection...

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

    This thread makes my really happy that I have a 2017 without all of that newfangled mumbo-jumbo that by all accounts was DOA in 2018, and now it's like a zombie apocalypse (The Last of Us?) that just keeps blowing up with no sign of ever getting any better.

    My 2020 RT Mileage turned 6!

    That's only three sixes. But what would be worse: Having a Y branded on your chest, or 6666?

    What color Touch up paint for the new RT arm rests

    This is where I got touch up paint for my 2017 RTS. It will be helpful for you to get the BRP color code and model/year to get an exact match. https://colorndrive.com/en/touch-up-paint/bombardier-all-ivoire-metivory-met-b390,154522/details...
