• 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.

    Spyder & Headset

    You may have to enlighten me because nowhere in the setting is there an option to chose headset or speakers. I have a 2018 RT Limited with the fancy digital display, which as far as I'm concerned is a waste of technology. My headset is paired to the bike, my phone is paired to the bike and...

    Anyone mounted a Rearview Camera on RT Ltd? What type?

    Why would I want to see what I just passed? Plus this type of monitor are useless in daylight. Camera at least records the events to be viewed anytime.

    Anyone mounted a Rearview Camera on RT Ltd? What type?

    Rear camera can be useful for many reasons, not only to see where you've been. I have installed a front and back cameras. These are GoPro wanabe, from E-bay for 40 bucks. If stolen, no big deal. They're almost as good as the $300+ GoPro. They come with a 2" screen and plenty of features. My...

    Spyder & Headset

    Spyder and Headset That is exactly what I do. So, why BRP is asking to pair the phone, driver headset and passenger headset? and if you pair the phone and go to any Nav you may have on your phone, the sound still comes from the speaker. Like to know who's the smart engineer who wrote the...

    Spyder & Headset

    I'm sure this has been discussed before but I need to ask: What is the purpose of pairing your headset with the bike radio? Nothing coming from the radio goes to the headset, no music, no Nav direction. Any sound from the radio goes to speakers. Period. Am I missing something? I have Sena 10

    Plano TX Headquarters

    Jack, I am 100% with you that parts are made in Mexico, India, Japan or anywhere else in the world. Every auto maker, including in the US, get their parts made in other countries, but you still have to order from a dealer which gets the part from the local manufacturer, not from India or...

    Plano TX Headquarters

    That make sense. Parts comes from Canada and yes, dealers always look to other dealers for help first. When I bought my last car, I wanted a specific color. My dealer didn't have one but got it for me from another dealer, 300 miles away....

    Looking for BRP Connect expert

    Yes, Bluetooth will work fine when the phone is in the trunk, USB plugged to keep charging. I get my music from the phone and have my GPS (a real one, not the stupid Genius which I can hardly read, waste of money) plugged to the audio port, which I extended to the handle bar. This way I can...

    Plano TX Headquarters

    Spyder Parts Sorry Jack, but your answer does not make sense. "Can Am parts do not come from Canada" and "Dealers order from other Dealers". So, in that case, where does "other dealers" get the parts from to sell to other dealers? Parts must come from BRP and therefore shipped from Canada...

    What size wrench to remove drain plug

    Drain Plugs I do like your suggestion. I just got a lift from HF and tried it yesterday. Works great. Lift all 3 wheels and keeps it balanced. It will allow me to look under and make the opening wider. Thanks for the suggestion.

    What size wrench to remove drain plug

    Don't be offended. I was just trying to get some answer. I am new at the Spyder and may ask more questions. Of course, there's always GOOGLE. But why, since so many, if not all on this board, may have a better answer than Google. Practice and experience makes good teachers and some of us do need...

    What size wrench to remove drain plug

    Drain plug I do have the Gold Plug (not installed yet). I just needed to know what type of wrench to remove the old plugs. I do now. Crankcase T45 Transmission 6MM Allen and 36MM filter. Someone suggested to go to the Gold plug website. Well, this site does not tell you what wrench...

    What size wrench to remove drain plug

    I looked pretty much all over this board. Ton's of people talk about changing oil. Not one mention what size tool is needed. Is it a Torx, an Allen , a socket? One suggested using a Allen/Torx. What the heck that means? I need to do my second oil change (first done by dealer to the tune of...

    My first oil change

    Thanks, i'm getting one today. One last question: I know that it takes a 36mm low profile socket for the filter. How about the two drain plugs? is it Torx, Allen and what size? Is that all I need, as far as tools? I'm ready to do my first oil change (last one I had dealer do it for $427.00) Rip...

    Texas Spyders in the Hills rally Oct. 18-20, 2018

    Spyder on the hills Nasty, nasty weather forecast for the 3 days rally. Don't mind the cold (love it) but not fun riding in the rain and, Spyder's do not handle very well on wet surfaces. I am waiting to check the forecast on Wednesday. Hopping it'll change, or else I am considering cancelling...

    New BRP Connect App

    I gave up long ago on that stupid Genius Map. First of all it is so small, I can hardly make out the street or/and directional arrows. As far as the sound/instructions, it comes and go, loose the sound every 15 seconds. In fact, I completely gave up on BRP Connect and use it only for FOBO. That...
