• 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.

    Spyder update BRP Rep worked on it today...

    Wonder who makes the DPS for the Spyder? I'm sure there are other suppliers to BRP involved in the correction process. Most likely there is a lot going on at BRP and their electronic suppliers right now that we are not privileged to know. Hang in there ... as Lamont said already .. this...

    Let me just say I'm not happy either

    Excellent post, Lamont. I think that will do it and you will see a 180 mood change as a result. You wrote: As for me I'm going to wait it out and see what happens. I have faith that they will get it fixed and the Spyder has just been too fun for me to give up on it now. Now if BRP says it...

    DPS Problems, We Can No Longer Ignore "The Elephant In The Living Room"

    Just so you understand ... this was not the normal "self center" ... the steering actually "fought back". I was using a lot of pressure to maintain the turn and actually felt the machine trying to "push back" against my input! ........ It happened more than once ....!!:yikes:

    DPS Problems, We Can No Longer Ignore "The Elephant In The Living Room"

    I'm going to jump on this thread to add my comments in an effort to keep all postings regarding this steering problem in more or less a central location. I had posted a thread earlier entitled: "Steering While Stopped". I was reporting on how hard it was to turn the wheels on rough pavement...

    Turning while stopped?

    Had the update to the update done. Runs much better but left with two problems: #1 . . Check engine light comes on shortly after I get rolling ... but, not all of the time. When it comes on however, it stays on. Dealer said it is because I bypassed the O2 sensor with Evoluzione's kit...

    Lost my best friend

    I once heard it said: "I want to be the man my dog thinks I am" Billy Graham was asked many years ago if animals will go to heaven. His reply; "if it makes you happy, yes there will be animals in Heaven". I'm looking forward to seeing: Big Boy, Poogie, and Jesse again one-of-these-days...

    "NEW" Givi E55 Maxia Trunk

    Excellent trunk. I added the liner which I think is well worth the money. Since I don't have a co-rider, I did not get the back rest but wish I had since it would give it a more finished look Also added the stop lights. Although they are not running lights, they are bright and get your...

    Dealer Recall Surging Suggestion

    This thing gets more frustrating by the day! ... I originally posted that my only problem was that the "Check Enging" light stayed on after the steering recal. Yesterday, I took a 135 mile ride after filling up with premium. As usual, after about 5 minutes the "light" came on. After a few more...

    Steering Recall .. Check Engine Light

    That's the word I got from my dealer who "said" BRP told them that?

    Steering Recall .. Check Engine Light

    Sixty miles after I had the Steering recall done, my "check Engine" light came on and remains on. I've disconnnected the battery and let it stand awhile hoping that it would reset the ecu? No help - engine light still on. Dealer told me that BRP told them it is because I have an aftermarket...

    CHAD Windshield - Helmet Buffeting - HELP!

    Another very good point .. I'm 312 with a long torso which also might affect the wind flow. So let's see .... As of now, I need to cut my seat down, get another helmet, loose 100 lbs, remove the risers and wear shoe lifts. I'll get right on it!! :roflblack: It is a mystery how one thing...

    CHAD Windshield - Helmet Buffeting - HELP!

    Didn't mean to imply that the touring shield was better; very little weather protection, loud, neck gets tired, etc. However, no head buffeting and good clean air. One SpyderLover PM'd me and summed up my feelings on the CHAD so far as making you feel like the scene in Right Stuff where Chuck...

    CHAD Windshield - Helmet Buffeting - HELP!

    Thanks for all the suggestions and statements. If I lean forward the buffeting goes away. I have NMN 4" risers so that might explain a lot?! One idea given I haven't tried is a different helmet. That's the only reasonable explanation as to why some have no problems and others do? I'll let you...

    CHAD Windshield - Helmet Buffeting - HELP!

    I'm 5'10". I cannot find a position to eliminate head buffeting! Gives me a headache after a long ride. If I lean down it goes away. Anyone else have this problem? I looked at SAENG Micro Swirl but the reviews on this product are mostly unsatisfactory. Can't find a Laminar Lip that...
