• 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.

    Glove ?

    I am sorry i don't have any gloves to recommend, but I know the feeling. Since I am new to the spyder, but have rode snowmobiles in the past, I took my skidoo handle bar muffs off my snowmobile and installed them on my spyder. They do look weird, but my hands stay warm and dry, and i can feel...

    Wintertime gloves

    I am sorry that right now I can't recommend any good cold weather gloves, but this is what I have done. I took my Skidoo handle bar muffs off my snowmobile and installed them on my spyder. It keeps your hands out of the wind and rain, and you hands keep warm.

    RT Vibration Damper Installation

    I have a 2017RT-S and a 2018 RT limited. The 2107 has 3100 miles on it, and the 2018 has 1000 miles on it, and they both have the dreaded belt vibration problem at about the same speed. If I install your vibration remover, do I lower the belt tension down too? and to what? I talked to the...

    BRP Connect usb location

    Here is the good and the bad. I ran a USB cable from the handle bars to the frunk and it did not sink correctly all the time. I pulled the factory USB cable from the frunk up to the dash and ran in through the handle bar hole. It works a whole lot better. There are only a couple wire ties that...

    Longer USB cable on my 2018 RT Limited spyder PROBLEM

    Well the problem is solved. I routed the factory USB cable from the frunk to the handle bars, and yes, it comes from the dash. It would have been easier just to pull the cable back up, instead of running a USB cable from the handle bars to the frunk. Since my Iphone is now on my handle bars, you...

    BRP Connect usb location

    I was able to fish mine from the top down, and did not remove the mirrors or side panels. It was not fun and you need small arms. I was able to route mine to the hole in the handle bar.

    Longer USB cable on my 2018 RT Limited spyder PROBLEM

    Well that did not work, I wanted a powered hub not a power hub. i tried a powered hub I had, but it did not work with the spyder and my iPhone. Back to the drawing board. I do have another idea through.

    $90 rebate

    Well you know us guys, we never read the owners manual from cover to cover when we buy something. Maybe I should have asked my wife first before I posted on spyder lovers.

    2018 RT Limited improvements

    Sorry to say, they don't all come with foot boards. When I purchased my 2018 RD limited, there were 3 other 2018 RT limited with foot pegs. Why? JM

    Just something to think about. I have a 2017 rts and a 2018 rt limited. The 2018 radio antenna is a spiral wrapped wire and the 2017 is not. The 2018 will pick up more stations than the 2017. JD
