• 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.

    Demo Ride in Wildwood, NJ

    I don't think it will happen. Way too much money for what you get. As for parts: I had to wait weeks to get my spider fixed because as my service guy told me "you know, Canada is another country" Are you kidding me!! Isn't fed ex world wide these days. I'm sure Honda could get parts from...

    Demo Ride in Wildwood, NJ

    Yesterday I took a BRP demo ride. I had to fill out paper work and watch a video even though I told them I already own a 08 RS. I wanted to try an RT (sm5) without dealer hassles. We took a nice ride for about 30 min and got it up to 50+ mph. I thought we'd just go around a few blocks for a...

    Belt problem

    It wasn't a word processing thing. I went to preview post and changed a few things then sent post. It just happened for some reason. It's probably some html stuff that for in there somehow. Sorry!!!

    Belt problem

    The belt started to barely wear the crankcase kind of like sled's. No other damage. And I have BEST coverage for whatever that may be worth. I'll see. Service mgr thinks engine mounts may have gone so as to tweak engine out of alignment. I pulled belt to outside of pulley against the lip...

    Belt problem

    I went for a nice ride last Sunday (about 2 hours).  It felt a little weird on the way home.  Once in the garage I checked it out and the belt was pressed hard against the engine.  About 1/8 of teeth on inside of the belt was worn away.  Rubber all over engine near oil tank and rear sprocket.  I...

    Left leg heat

    I am also feeling too much heat on the left side. I have the missing air dam, air mgm't system and heat shield. I also changed the pipe gaskets with the gold wing ones (both sides). I have also wrapped the pipes but not where there are 2 pipes at the bottom on the left side. That is my next...

    Spyder Sightings

    I had my first Spyder sighting (a red RS) heading south on Rt 9 in Bayville, NJ. I waved to him all excited like a little kid. Then I felt kinda stupid for getting so excited. I guess I'll be seeing more as the weather gets nicer.

    cup holder for 2009 SM5

    I have 2 folding cup holders from west marine. I pop riveted them to the back wall of the trunk, about 1/2 way up. This way they can be folded and still have room for stuff or helmets when not being used for coffee. By the way, I use refillable cups and it saves you at least 25 cents per cup...

    Spyders and Harleys

    I came out of a doctor appointment today and saw another patient checking out my Spyder. He told me he was a harley rider but really like my spyder. As we were talking, one of the doctors came out to tell me he really likes my ride. And the 3 of us were talking for a few minutes. After the...

    plugs and wires??

    Is it possible to get plugs and wires to attempt to fix a problem with a wire arching? I REALLY don't want to go back to my dealer. I saw lots of parts on the BRP site but didn't find what I want yet.

    e-Tint® AX-9 visor insert

    If you go to web bike world "home" page, at the top it says store. I got a $420 helmet for $275 after they did a little testing and picture taking. You have to catch it just right so as soon as they put something up, it could go quickly. I got it in Verde Lime which is not available in the...

    e-Tint® AX-9 visor insert

    Firefly, let us know how it works on the XR1R. I just got mine (not c.f.) but one of the reasons for buying was the huge eye port. This looks like you would see the perimeter of it. Possibly being a little distracting. By the way, I got helmet from webbikeworld.com for a great deal and I...

    More on the hybrid Spyder

    I saw this at the New York motorcycle show and spoke to a BRP rep there. The one at the show was just for show. It had no engine, electric nor gas. He told me they were about 4 years away from production. A lot can happen in that time. But it looked cool.

    I have kewlmetal mirror extenders and Dzus fateners for all body work. Will I still be able to attach the Baker wings w/uppers on an 2008 RS? I called them and they were very helpful and will be emailing me directions so I can see what needs to be done. I was just wondering if anyone out there...

    Any BEST deals out there?

    I am getting to the point where I must act or lose out. My warranty will run out in April. So I was wondering if any dealer is offering some kind of deal on a 2 year extension? Thanks
