• 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.

    F3 Front Sprocket Inspection

    Anybody with the red rust has not be denied to my knowledge. If they give you a hassle, make sure and report them to BRP. Information flow back to them is the best way for us to get the best possible service work done. I have sneaking suspicion that they will be really monitoring how their...

    Belt Tension

    Wayne, that is a very high number. Many ryders have dropped that down substatially (160-180 ish on the ground) with a Vibration Damper and had great success and no vibration. And I agree that less side load on the splines of the front sprocket cannot hurt.

    Promotional Vibration Damper Sale

    Heck, I'm thinking of putting the 40k roller and bearings back in to service that we pulled off of Buckeye Chuck's byke. The roller had a little scoring so we put him a new one when we did the upgrades. I have made a jig to turn the rollers with the bearings in place down .001 at a time. Nice...

    Promotional Vibration Damper Sale

    It will fit, but the 2013 and under RT has that ribbed outer belt. It sounds a little like a turbo when you slow down. Some ryders aren't bothered, others are. We have a kit #3 BB on our regular site, but it is not part of this promotion. What we can do is invoice you for the Ebay price plus...

    DOCS ROLLER SHORTCUT

    The is an awesome shortcut. Will save time on the annual inspection/greasing! Good job! Been thinking about resurrecting a roller we retired at 40k. Bearings were fine. We pulled it because the nylon was showing some wear. I have now created a jig in my lathe that I can take off .001 of an...

    F3 Front Sprocket Inspection

    Yep, yours got bit. I wouldn't tell them where you got the belt (has to be a BRP one anyway). I would just tell them you have a spare belt and would like it put on. Also, you might get them to warranty the belt. Ryder on FB just had his sprocket done and the dealer did the belt also.

    Belt Tension Adjustment

    RT and F3 only. We would like to do something for the RS, but it will require an adapter. Have to have one hands on for several hours to figure out the adapter.

    Belt Tension Adjustment

    We have always had to replace the Kendra tires. They are horrible. We run Federal EVO's on both the RT & F3 on the front. Michelin on the rear. I have a set of Kendra fronts with less that 5k on them. Make an offer :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack: if interested. They are off the 2017 Daytona.
