• 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.

    2018 RT Console Switch Opening Size.

    MedutPG, thanks for the pictures, very helpful. On the connection for the trigger wire, I have having trouble orienting towards where the picture actually is . It looks to be on the left side (left when on bike), and just below the headlight, Is that the right location? Also, do you happen...

    HI EVERYONE ! Dave here with great news for NEWBEES & OLDBEES

    Really hopes that Dave comes up with a similar concept for the 18s, since BRP decided that FM and Aux audio weren't worthy of routing through the onboard bluetooth. I currently can use the FM on my Sena 10U, but changing stations etc is definitely more difficult without a visual display. It...

    Would be interested in knowing about your fuzeblock install ---location, where you pulled switched power. That may be my next mod, and reason I held on the USB install. Thx

    2018 RT Console Switch Opening Size.

    MeudtPG, I just purchased the exact same from Amazon, but have not yet installed on my 2018 RT as it will require a little cutting......and I did not have an answer on wiring it up anyway. That said, I did pull the blanks. The center blank on the 2018 uses a round hole.....the entire shape...

    Android with BRP Connect -- Overheating

    I am using a Samsung Galaxy S7 with BRP Connect while running Sygic maps. I have my phone in the Frunk pocket where the USB connector is. After 20 minutes or so on an 82 degree sunny day, my phone is shutting off for overheating. This is the same phone I use in FL summertime where temps will...

    Sygic Maps any good?

    If it says car connectivity it should work, I have mine on android, but would not have expected android to cost more (or less). Seems strange. What I suggest is downloading the app, then trying the inapp purchase to upgrade to the world connected. Worked on mine, sounds like you may save a...

    Sygic Maps any good?

    Jarred, You need to get the Sygic Car Navigation from play store, it is a free download. You then need to buy the "North America Connected Premium Pack" -- the key is the "Connected" piece, only it allows for connection to BRP Connect. Right now the North America Connected Premium is $62.49...

    Sygic Maps any good?

    I've played with it, and while it is not Google or Waze, it seems to be pretty stable and functional. I've had no issues with it, and for $62 it was not a terrible deal, especially with the Can Am $90 card. I've not used Genius maps as I heard some less than favorable comments about them.

    Bluetooth on a 2018 Spyder RT

    Thanks Bob. I believe the issue with the 2018s is actually software vice hardware. Th radio (BRP Connect) does have bluetooth, and it passes audio from the BRP apps (Navigation, music player) to the headset fine. It will not pass FM radio or anything plugged into the aux input though. seems...

    Bluetooth on a 2018 Spyder RT

    I e-mailed Dave direct as well. His response was "your audio system is different than all the other Spyder’s that came before 2018, your system is already blue tooth but they left a few thing off when they made it." He suggested using Pandora, XM or similar. He also suggest using FM if your...

    Tricled led flag

    Thanks. Kind of my thought and not pulled over yet on my Slingshot. Always nervous though. In my area (St Pete beach, FL), we have allot of very young officers, and a few with a reputation of being a little challenging. I've been pulled over once in 25 years, and it was for running a red...

    Has anyone that has one been pulled over for red/blue lights? I have one on a Slingshot (just bought an RT), and am nervous about it. Would love one on the Spyder as well, just nervous on the attention..... Thanks

    Bluetooth on a 2018 Spyder RT

    I purchased a 2018 Spyder RT with the BRP connect system, which of course does not provide bluetooth for FM and/or Aux. In looking at alternatives, as I prefer headsets when on the road, I can across Motorcycle Dave's solution for the RT. It includes a cable to simply plus into the radio, as...

    2017 vs 2018 RT Limited

    I appreciate the great feedback Flamewinger. Am a little disappointed in BRP that they have bluetooth on the bike (eg GPS and Music), and did not use it. Hopefully they will get that major software bug fixed quickly, although been a year. Should be an extremely easy fix, since they already...

    2017 vs 2018 RT Limited

    Reference the Bluetooth discussions. I ASSUMED that the audio system blue-toothed to a headset across the board, other bikes have been doing so for years. From above, it sounds like the FM does NOT, but does at least the GPS and say an Aux player (IPOD, phone etc). Lacking FM bluetooth is a...

    2017 vs 2018 RT Limited

    2017 vs 2018 RT Limited

    I am planning to buy an RT limited in the next couple of weeks, and have a dealer nearby that has a new 2017 and a new 2018 on the floor. The 2017 is about $2100 cheaper, and my first color choice (Blue). The 2018 is a Champaign, my fourth color choice. I've done a fair bit of research trying...

    Logic behind lifting entire leg to use brakes on 2016 RT-S rear brake pedal--

    Does anyone know if the handbrake will fit a 2018? The site says through 2017, but not sure if they have it up to date. Sent them a note several days back but no response. Thanks
