• 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.

    Concerned about transmission after software update

    It won't allow me to shift at lower RPMs It is not a question of being able to hold it in 1st longer, but a question of not being able to shift into 2nd until the RPMs are up around 4000 RPMs or so.

    Concerned about transmission after software update

    Was almost ready to say it is fine I can no doubt get used to the higher shift point, and thought it was fine. Then the afternoon it went as high as 5000 RPMs. Does it have any thing to do with how much throttle I am giving it when I go from 1-2. As I said all the other gears seem to shift...

    Concerned about transmission after software update

    I will check with him Monday Thanks for the fast reply. I was almost hoping that it was normal after the update and I just needed to get used to the new shift point. I was joking with the service guy and said it has been running great and I hoped the update didn't change that. Well it...

    Concerned about transmission after software update

    Not in trailer mode I checked, and it is not in trailer mode. When I saw your post, I thought perhaps I put it in trailer mode when I was resetting my trip meter at the gas station, but it is in "regular" mode. I was concerned it wasn't going to shift out of 1st at all, but it consistently...

    Concerned about transmission after software update

    My 2012 RT has been running great. It has just under 3000 miles. I brought the Spyder in to get my state inspection. While there, I was told it needed a software update. As I recall he said it had something to do with the throttle. Now it will not upshift from 1-2 until it is somewhere over...

    2012 Rt Offer Made

    Depends on their inventory If the 2013s wont be out for a few months they may feel they can get more from someone who wants their Spyder NOW. I am not saying they shouldn't give you a great price, but if they are down to their last 1-2 units that may be why they will not deal more than they are.

    Its great to recommend this Pennsylvania dealer.

    I purchased my RT-S from Leisure Equipment in Spring City, PA-about 25 minutes from exit 312 on the PA turnpike. The salesman was terrific. I have not had any problems thankfully, but have spoken to the service manager, and besides being knowledgeable, he is also helpful. He is willing to...

    New ST questions: floor boards vs. footpegs?

    Seal Floorboards I installed a set of Seal floorboards on my RT and they are great. The advantages over the BRP ones are two fold. The Seal boards allow for more foot positions, and they are half the price. Just a thought if you are considering adding them to your RT (I am assuming you can).

    The new 2013 Spyder RT ST and RS

    Interesting but not for 2 up riding The ST looks great (from the pictures), and I like the more upright seat position. I have a 2012 RT-S and my wife frequently rides with me. Unless I am mistaken, it looks like the ST would not make a great 2-up machine. The rear seat of the RT is very...

    XM Satellite

    Mounted a 665 I mounted a 665 so it is high up. I need to clean up the hole from behind the power plug where I spliced into it. I had the dealer remove the two additional gauges from my RT and install a voltmeter, and cigarette lighter plug(used the cover available from BRP) when I...

    Need prayers for my son Nathan

    I IMAGINE YOUR SON IS RECEIVING PRAYERS FROM EVERY FAITH. I think its terrific that so many people on this board who don't know each other, except perhaps from the many postings, can all come together to use the power of prayer to help the healing process. It would be interesting to see how...

    Locking glove box

    I have a 2012 RT. I think the glove box used to lock when I turned the handlebars full left and turned the key to the locked position. Am I correct that it should lock, and if so any thoughts as to why mine doesn't?

    Veskimo cooling vest

    I did try a larger cooler I tried several different insulated coolers, but the design has to allow for the large hoses to enter and exit which limits what can be used somewhat. I also need one of a size I can easily secure to the passenger seat. The other problem of course is that you can...

    zūmo 350LM

    Will the A2DP bluetooh profile mute the intercom ? I am trying to decide between the 665 and 350LM. The concern I have is using it with my Uclear-I have the hbc100 and wil be trading it for the hbc200. I know with my iPhone the GPS wil not interrupt the intercom to give voice directions when...

    Mounting a Zumo up high

    I used the Lamont method I thought I had an original idea when I replaced the dash screw with a longer one in much the same manner Lamont did to attach a Ram mount. That location offers some glare protection due to the overhang of the top of the dash. For power I replaced the left hand gauge...

    Satellite Radio Installation

    The FM transmitter does not always work I live in an area that has virtually every frequency taken by some sort of radio broadcast. Unless you live in an area that you can find a completely unused frequency you wil have to much interference to use use the transmitter option. Also that "blank"...

    Veskimo cooling vest

    Yes-have had one for 2 seasons I have had the veskimo for 2 summers now. It is one of the few cooling devices that seems to work, however it is not without its issues. I originally had the "cooling unit" in the rear trunk of my RT, but have since moved it to the rear seat. YOu use it by...

    Seal Floorboards

    Also very pleased with mine I have had seal board son for a little while now, and they make a huge comfort difference. They may even help block some of the right side heat, They were not cheap, but are well made and very easy to install. The ISCI products are terrific as well, but the install...

    Seal floorboard brake pedal riser

    I received the aluminum riser for the brake pedal with the "Seal" floorboards. I had made a small modification previously when I managed to strip the thread over tightening the pedal when It came loose on a recent trip. All I did was drill through the pedal and inserted two tapered round...
