• 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.

    Vendor Vampires

    Why don’t the vendors get together and pick a location to set up stalls and create their own rally? With so many vendors spread out all over the place, if 3 or 4 that are reasonably close to each other planned on setting something up in a certain location for a weekend (ie: the vendors in KS /...

    Another newbie

    Hmmm .. don't know that this advice gives a true picture of the 998 capabilities. I have a 2013 RT and can't say that I have ever found myself struggling to get on any highway and pulling away from vehicles travelling over the posted 70mph!

    RT vent kit on 2014 RT

    Yes ... also if you still have warranty (ie: Best extended) BRP are covering the costs. My wife had the scoops installed on her 2012 2 weeks ago and BRP picked up the tab!

    HAVE YOU HAD THE 2013 RT RECALL WORK DONE YET?

    If you have a upper block off plate installed on the right hand side (dragons mouth), remove it and Install the 2014 right hand side plastic grill which comes with the lower hole block off (all one piece) which is where I found the heat is coming from and flowing up under the foot. You will...

    Weird, has this happened to anyone? Check engine light come on then disappear

    I had the check engine light come on this year at spyderfest and took the bike (2013 RT) to Pitbull. the BRP tech worked on it and told me it was the purge valve. He fixed it and explained that to help keep the purge valve clear it in future, to ride in the 5500 to 6000 rpm range for a few...

    Testing in a car is bad

    I think you are all being a little bit harsh on the rider, this may have been a very important text message that couldn't wait until the next stopping point.

    Strange clicking sound

    Mine too ... Sounds exactly like the sound I am getting on my spyder. In fact I had the dealer check it out yesterday because I though it might be an A arm bushing gone bad and they told me it was coming from the right hand side bushing to the Baja Ron Sway Bar. I will be emailing Harvey...

    Flag Etiquette Questions

    I have been seeing lots of rydes with the flag mounts displaying more than 1 flag (myself included US & Australian). My understanding of the correct etiquette when flying more than 1 national flag is that the Host country flag (in this case the US), the flag is flown on ‘its own right’.I...

    2013 recall report after long ride 100deg ambient.

    I'm somewhat confued ... You have shown us the pictures of the temp readings after the recall work has been done however, what is the significance of these readings? ie: what temps are they comparing to?

    2013 RT Recall Work Done!

    Well Bob, Let's just say that for now I am far happier than I have been. Should the bike continue to remain at this present state when the warmer temps (90's)arrive, then it will be all that I have wanted it to be. One thought that did come to mind during my road trip yesterday though was...

    2013 Can-Am Spyder RT Safety Recall - Elevated Temperature in Engine Compartment

    I agree with Bob on this one. I am confident that BRP have come up with a viable solution and am patiently waiting for the fix to be applied to my bike. I am anticipating that wont take place until early June. Let's face it the parts have to be produced and shipped to the dealers in the...

    Dose of reality

    I have a 2013RT and have no issue keeping it once the BRP recall fix is done. My hope is that the fix works. I don't expect there to be NO heat emanating from beneath the bike (afterall there is an engine under that Tupperware), but my hope is that the current heat is greatly reduced and the...

    HOLY COW! If you have Tri-Axis handlebars check this from time to time!

    I'm guilty ... I agree with you bob, I for one am guilty of not performing a pre ride inspection other than check oil, tire pressure, visual inspection on lights belt & indicators before riding.
