• 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.

    Brakes making sounds since Elkas installed

    Ever since I had the Elkas installed, my brakes are making intermittent clicking/clunking sounds when applied. I especially hear it from the Right front brake. Brakes seem to work just fine, just making that funky sound. Any suggestions as to what to look for? Hubby will be available to...

    Seal floorboards and heat

    John, I just ordered your floor boards. Looking forward to the installation. Which Spyderpops blockoff plate do you recommend? I've never used one and know that I will need something now that I will be moving my right foot around. I hope it doesn't cause heat to come up between the seat and...

    2014 RT spy photos...

    I wish they had included the missing upper brake light instead of making owners resort to 3rd party solutions. Otherwise, hopefully they have addressed the overheating problem that can cause fires and hot feet. Kinda like the color. Candy colors are luscious! Hope they offer several. Madonna

    AWESOME combo: Shock Relocator--Swaybar--Elka shocks

    I knew I wanted to get the shocks for a while, but my husband kinda-sorta encouraged me to wait. But after reading your message, Faran - and all the others - I had to do it! So I just called and ordered both front and a rear shocks plus the relocators. Gave Len my weight and that of my...

    Disapointment With BRP Owners Event

    DRBuck does not need me to defend him but I am stepping in to say that you guys may be a little harsh on the man. First, Dave knows his way around the Spyder and has done many modifications to his RT. He certainly doesn't need BRP to teach him how to change the oil. Secondly, many companies...

    Cold Spyder "Moan"

    This happens with mine too. The brakes seem to work great so I didn't worry about it. Then they started screeching and subsequently locking up. Shop time! Fortunately, covered by warranty. Madonna

    I hate Rolling Thunder...

    Dave, my Spyder needed some attention before the owner's event. Everyone I called locally had a 3 week wait before they could see me. I found a platinum dealer in Hanover, PA - Motorsports, Inc. They could see me immediately. I trailered the spyder up the next day - 2 hours. Best decision...

    Feels like emergency brake is still on when I try to drive in either direction

    Ann, I always search before I ask but I hadn't found that. Took me 5 different searches (don't know why) until I finally found what I think you were referencing. That helped a lot. The bottom line, I showed hubs how to turn the Spyder on and how to engage and disengage the parking brake...

    Feels like emergency brake is still on when I try to drive in either direction

    How or can I make it release? Is there a manual way to release a brake that is set electronically? I don't have the shop manual and would love to have my husband fix this if it is within his ability (like this weekend). Madonna

    Feels like emergency brake is still on when I try to drive in either direction

    Naturally, this just had to happen right when it is turning into nice riding weather. Ah, well. About 3 weeks ago when I moved my RT to put it on the tire ramps so that my husband could install the sway bars, I noticed that the brakes were making a pretty loud squelling sound. Sounded like...

    Farkle - Farkle - Farkle - and Farkle Again!

    Bob, by the time they get to be my age and their eyesight is going/gone, they are too old to do the work. :shocked: More and more of the world is younger than us now. Beats the alternative of us not being around!! I hesitate to talk to the folks at the dealership because if things go south...
