• 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.

    Anyone go from an RT to a Ryker?

    You always want what you don't have. I would love to pick up a good used one and have both, but you don't see many used ones out there yet.

    Anyone go from an RT to a Ryker?

    Maybe I'm doing too much thinking this winter, since there is nothing else to do in 0 degree temps in midwest. But I am surprised (and disappointed) in the miles I have put on my RT limited so far. Mostly from covid, not many destination rides like I used to, but I also notice most of my rides...

    Spyders passing HDs

    I used to live in Milwaukee so a lot of Harley's. When I got my Valkyrie it was pretty obvious it had 6 cylinders (Honda didn't exactly hid them) and you wouldn't believe how many HD riders tried to race me! I'm sure you had a lot of fun on your V-max, I know I did :) I got so sick of going back...

    Ring doorbells & cameras

    I have blink cameras, totally wireless and very long battery life. They work so good I use 1 just for a trail cam.

    BRP GO - App Update - Any “Music” option?

    This is not possible when you have your phone plugged in, is it? I tried this on my 2018 RTL and it says bluetooth is not possible when phone is plugged in.

    BRP GO - App Update - Any “Music” option?

    That really stinks! As bad as the reception is (at least here) they definitely need a music app.

    BRP GO - App Update - Any “Music” option?

    Only music app is dash radio. I remember having music and accuweather before it was "new and improved!" Only BRP can take things away on an update!

    Share your mouse repellent ideas

    Mouse poison block by every wheel, and use peppermint spray around vehicles and on tires. No guarantees on peppermint spray, but since I used it after mice got at wiring harness on ATV I have not had a problem!

    Brp go

    I agree, it wouldn't take up a lot of room either, they could just use the lines for the speedometer and keep the MPH digital only.

    Brp go

    If you hold the left arrow button it will go back, not momentarily but hold if for a second or two. It only took me a few hours to figure that out! A detailed video would really be nice and avoid a lot of questions and problems.

    Brp go

    In the directions for the new GO app they say to delete the old one, it could cause a conflict. Either this is true or they don't want to admit it ever existed :)

    Brp go

    I agree! BRP Connect is actually in the GO app. It is easier to navigate, and less buggy. It also give you step by step instructions on setting up (Like open the app first, then connect cable) that also helps. I am hoping that it gives an opportunity for more apps, I would like to at least see a...

    No more sun glare on phone/maps

    There was actually a thread a few months ago about this, I even recommended a visor from Amazon myself://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?141928-Smart-Phone-as-GPS-for-Spyder There were some people who had problems with universal visors because they had a case on their phone. That is...

    No more sun glare on phone/maps

    I don't really see your point? You will still need a way to mount it, which is where the majority of my cost came from (although I already had the dash mount.) There was a discussion a while back about visors like this for phones, and a big problem was they didn't work if you wanted to keep your...

    No more sun glare on phone/maps

    I designed it myself, so about a half an hour for the design, and as far as the printing it is a slow process - it took about 12 hours but I only used a few dollars in material. The only other cost would be how you attach your phone to the visor. I already had the dash mount and the X-grip with...

    No more sun glare on phone/maps

    If you know anyone with a 3d printer it is pretty easy to design a sunshade for your phone. The best part is since you are designing it from scratch you can make it whatever size you want and even make it like I did where you can keep your case on. My case is has magnets in it, and attaches to...

    Ignition key 2018 Spyder RT

    These covers have gone up since I bought them but they are really nice and have colors to match most of our bikes

    Interesting video

    This popped up on youtube for recommended videos. Interesting, but I think his bike is too old to draw some of his conclusions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqISa4o8yks&t=544s

    Hate to be a party pooper but...

    A lot of great advice here. I just wanted to add that if you are feeling like you made a mistake purchasing the Spyder, I think those of us who came from 2 wheels all felt that way at some time. Just give it more time, it took me like 1500 miles to feel comfortable! But I still remember that day...

    I got it!!!!!

    Congratulations, I have a 2018 RTL also. The only way for me to learn the BRP connect was to see it used, so I suggest youtube. Just search BRP connect tutorial and there are some good videos to help you. Like you heard there is a steep learning curve and you might end up going to bluetooth...
