• 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.

    Deadwood 3 Wheeler Rally - 2020

    One of my favorite parts of the Black Hills... Iron Mountain Road: 17 miles, 314 curves, 14 switchbacks, 3 pigtails and 3 tunnels (Hiway 16a)... I also like the Old Hill City Rd from Keystone to Hill City... As was stated so many cool rides to go on. Don't forget, you are also very close to...

    Here's some New Kenda Tires!?!

    While I agree that all manufactures base decisions on the money factor, I am not sure about these tire statements. There are cheaper tires than the Kenda and if BRP buys in bulk they are even less expensive. When I traded in my 14 with Kuhmo on rear and Federals on front for my 18 I got...

    Slingshot

    From the video at the owners meeting, they showed a new engine and a quick shot of the interior with the same type of controls on the steering wheel that most cars have. Also in that shot it looked to be an automatic shifter in the console instead of the 5 speed. Semi Auto would be nice...

    Slingshot

    Welcome to the SS world. I have both, a 2018 RTL and a 2019 Slingshot SLR. I drove the SS home from Georgia to Colorado to get used to it. :) The two are not even comparable so all the defenses for the Spyder need not be there. I am older than some and younger than others and I have no...

    Bought demo 2017 RT as new, BRP says warranty time used by dealer demo period?

    RPM was always like this. It is the reason I quit doing business with them. Back in 2011 I bought a RT from them with the RPM warranty which was sold as "all maintenance would be covered, you will never have to pay for maintenance for 3 years". So I bought brake pads and tires and wanted them...

    BRP Connect

    I think for the time it takes to get everything working it is crap. It does work but it is not user friendly. Ex... they amount of time and menus it takes to go from helmet audio out to speaker audio out. On my Polaris slingshot it take exactly 3 seconds... There are other things that I also...

    Are Spyder sales Declining Fast?

    It is not only Can-Am... I have a 2019 Slingshot as well and it took over 2 months just to get a new steering wheel... (cosmetic damage) they were back ordered. Harleys have always had terrible wait times during the riding season.... I think this is just an industry problem and not a Can-Am issue.

    Genius Maps or Rever?

    I used the ITN converter software a while ago. What I noticed is that if the maps that were created are different than the maps you are converting it to the route changes... Ex... no freeways or tolls... that type of stuff. I just decided to stick with Garmin and bought the 595LM. Yes is is...

    Are Spyder sales Declining Fast?

    I thought one was supposed to say SXS for side by side and SS for the Sling.

    Are Spyder sales Declining Fast?

    I agree... the Slingshot is a blast. I have a 2019 SLR Sling and a 2018 RTL and I find myself more and more taking the Sling... It is a blast to drive. To be honest I still feel the RTL is more comfortable for a long trip. although I did drive the Sling 1600 miles in 2 days on the way home...

    Bluetooth and USB Connection on 2019 f3 ltd

    I guess what I was trying to say is to use your phone as you would with wired head phones. The only difference is that once plugged into the BRP system you cannot see the screen. The music should still play as it would through the headphones (thinking of a newer iPhone with the Lightening...

    Bluetooth and USB Connection on 2019 f3 ltd

    Ok, I guess my first question is what are you connecting via Bluetooth? The bike or the helmet? I would connect your phone to the usb (my understanding is that Bluetooth and USB do not function at the same time) from Apple support it says if you are connecting via bluetooth do this and if you...

    Can Am Ryker 900 Hard Fact’s - Mike Mas

    Spyders were first introduced in 2007... from the Can-am Website... June 2017 was the 10 year celebration...Jay Leno got Spyder #1 in October 2007. As I said in an earlier post, people who buy one will like it. I think he was comparing the DCT transmission in the Goldwing to the CVT...

    Warning regarding Sena batteries

    I bought my Sena 20s in 2014 and last year when it was cold out... below 40 degrees the Sena would just work and then shut off. When it was warm there were no problems. I contacted Sena and they said that the battery was old. I bought a new 20s EVO to replace it. It would have been nice to...

    Are there really THAT many differences between the Spyder and two wheels?

    I just bought a Slingshot to add to my collection, and even though they sell it as a motorcycle (just so they do not have to have all the car safety features) it is a Car. Three wheels, but a car for real. Even the little kids in my neighborhood say as I am driving by... "cool car". A bunch...
