• 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.

    Recall 2010 Rt clutch issue

    It's not a recal, but it is a warranty repair. There is a service bulliten on it but it is a fix a fail. They are not quite sure why only some are doing it. It may have something to do with the tolerances on the bushing type roller being to tight.

    throttle return spring problem

    Tom, Have your dealer check this out. We had 1 early release do this and we found a small plastic bushing (spacer) was missing in the throttle housing. This 1 we had was the only 1 I know of. This was on 1 of the factory bikes so it was the very first production run ( even before the premieres).

    Customers having RT's already?

    The demos are NOT PE models. I just got my demo yesterday and prepped it today. I assure everyone they are not PEs. As far as the dealer in MI. I looked at the ad no where did it say it was a PE model. If it is a PE model it could be that the dealer did have a deposit on it and the customer...

    compatibility - prices..

    The RT is a totally new frame with differences from the RS/GS models. The front suspension is wider and the wheel base is longer. None of the suspension parts will retro fit to the RS/GS. The exhaust is also different due in part that the V991 has higer torque at lower RPMs. The Exhaust also...

    SE5 creeps from a stop

    Pilo, Sorry about the delay in answering. What BRP did was change the configuration of the clutch. It some cases the roller bushings would bind slightly. This would cause the clutch to stay slightly engaged. What BRP did was change to a needle bearing instead of a bushing. Unfortunately you...

    SE5 creeps from a stop

    If there is a creep and it drags the RPM down the Centrifigal clutch needs to be replaced. They have changed the rollers and bearings. The new configuration will fix this creeping issue. Some creep is normal but if it brings the RPMs down and you can overcome it by goosing throttle then have the...

    Should I Have Paid

    Thanks Smylinacha. It's great to hear from satisfied customers.

    Should I Have Paid

    Unfortunately no. When BUDS is connected it automatically starts the update for you (providing they have the updated version). We do all the reflashes while the customer waits. As far as the parking brake bulletin it's out there and should be done to every 2008 Spyder that qualifies.

    Should I Have Paid

    You should verify if they ever did the update on the parking brake plate. If not have it done. We have probably done every Spyder we sold at no charge to the customer (warranty). BRP did issue a service bulletin on this issue.

    how to fix your brake noise

    We have not had any problems getting the brake pads. I keep 4 sets in stock (of the softer pad). I have found that beveling the leading edge of each pad & using the anti-squeal gel (not the aerosol) reduces the noise considerably. It only takes about a 1/16" - 1/8" bevel to reduce the noise.
