• 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.

    Do you guys actually ride without stopping long enough to need 50ozs of water on board? My longest day of riding was 750 miles in a day. We got gas, a drink, bathroom break and snack or meal as required. If I drank 50ozs of water w/o stopping I would need another outlet tube. LOL

    Price per mile/km

    Well if you want to feel better about your $ per mile on a Spyder, buy a snowmobile. We figure it by smiles per miles.

    Fans running a lot??

    Lew, You have a laser temp gauge. Use that to check the temp at the thermostat housing. Most 4 stroke engines run around 200 degrees. If your gauge on the Spyder is maxed out the laser temp probe will either confirm its actual over heated or not. I would also run the laser probe all around both...

    Hill Hold Control on 2021 RTs ???

    My 2021 RTL has it and it works as expected. My 2019 RTL had it also. I don't think it a gimmick many vehicles have it. Some people will find it very useful and others won't. If you are towing a trailer I could see it being very helpful.

    My 2021 Rides Like A Buckboard

    I went from a 2019 to a 2021. I didn't notice any difference in ride. My front tires are 20 psi and the rear is 28 psi. I can confirm that both of the Spyders will, at times drop a little air in the rear suspension when at a stop. I notice it more when riding solo. You can check the air, I'm not...

    Is 2021 RTL gearing the same as 2019's?

    I looked up on BRP parts, both 2019 & 2021 have the same front and rear sprockets. I have notice that it seems smoother also.

    Is 2021 RTL gearing the same as 2019's?

    Is the 2021 RTL geared the same as 2019's? It might be me but my 2021 seems to have more power than the 2019 did.

    How is the side bag latch held in?

    There are 4 real screws, 2 behind the strut and 2 on the top face. The 4 plastic screws are really just push pins. They screw out about 1/4" then I took needle nose pliers and just pulled them out. Glad it helped.

    How is the side bag latch held in?

    Her's a picture of the whole panel removed and the side of the Spyder without the panel.

    How is the side bag latch held in?

    sounds like the trim panel came out of the grove around the handle. Here is a picture of the panel (I'm holding it for reference). The panel when installed goes into that grove around the handle.

    2020 RT Radio Issue - sound mutes/unmutes randomly?

    BRP really needs to get this BRP connect straightened out or scrap it and start over. It's been a massive failure from the start. IMO

    How is the side bag latch held in?

    Longtimer, I have the back of mine all apart. The release handle is very hard to see what all holds it there. The trim panel slides into the handle and the handle stays in place when the trim panel is removed. I won't be putting mine back together until tomorrow after work. I can take pictures...

    What is the belt tension on a 2020 RTL?

    K80, Do you adjust it to the lower spec when you do that?

    How is the side bag latch held in?

    I just read your post again? Are you talking about the latch or the release handle ?

    How is the side bag latch held in?

    It is a double latch about 4" long. Held in with 2 screws. I am putting a flashing module on my RTL this after noon and will take a picture of the assembly for you when I have it exposed. This video from sling mods (if the link works) shows how to expose the latch assembly...

    Power to Zumo 396 on 2020 RTL?

    I wish I had seen Rick's post #14 before I did mine. I wanted a wire harness that would plug directly into my Spyder's harness.

    What is the belt tension on a 2020 RTL?

    If the Spyder has a belt tensioner on it is the tension rate the same and do you check it with the tensioner on the belt or off the belt?

    Is there a Video on how to install Baja Ron’s sway bar on a 2020/2021 Spyder RT?

    I took the Baja Ron bar off my 2019 and installed it on the 2021 RTL w/o instructions. It's a pretty straight forward install. As others have said as long as you have the hight to remove it after it is unbolted.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Laser alignment.

    New for 2021 RT Limited (LOOK)

    You can turn the white dash on all the time in settings. I can't figure out why they have the windshield going up and down every shut off and start cycle either. They must want to advertise the windshield moves or build sales for windshield motors.
