• 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.

    Review: on the ropes

    Speaking of H-D's, Last week I was out for a ride on the Road King, and ran over something (I didn't see) in the road that flipped up and bent a frame cross member under the engine and punched a hole in the oil sump pan. Luckily I was able to pull over and get it stopped before much of the oil...

    Spyder RT 2013 Owners - did the Recalls fix the issues?

    Last year I bought a beautiful, like new, 2012 RT LTD with less than 4,000 original miles. after about 200 miles it started throwing the P0714 code, which is related to a lean condition. I took it to the shop and they replaced the battery, thinking it was due to low voltage. 200 or so miles...

    Radio Volume

    With my unit (I think it is called an Onyx) hardwired via AUX, the volume is very linier from stopped to 75 - 80 mph. Maybe you could try hardwiring your phone with a patch cord.

    Radio Volume

    I have a 2018 RT LTD. My XM Radio is paired with the audio system via the AUX connection. When I first installed it, the volume was quite weak. Two things I did that really increased the volume were: #1 setting the audio output level on the XM unit to high. #2 Setting the auto volume level on...

    2017 Spyder RT Parking Brake sticking

    Here's what I posted on another thread yesterday: My 2018 RT LTD did this at about 6500 miles, just as we were leaving on a an 800 mile trip. I disconnected the cable with the above mentioned 12mm wrenches, threw some small blocks of wood in the frunk for chocks, and proceeded with the trip...

    looking at getting a Spyder

    The sound system on my 2018 RT Ltd is great. I installed an XM satellite radio that I run through the AUX setting. With the current firmware update (I believe it is 20.8) and the ambient auto volume increase feature set, I can hear the audio fine at 75+ mph.

    Parking brake actuator failure/does BEST warranty cover?

    My 2018 RT LTD did this at about 6500 miles, just as we were leaving on a an 800 mile trip. I disconnected the cable with the above mentioned 12mm wrenches, threw some small blocks of wood in the frunk for chocks, and proceeded with the trip. About half way through the trip, it started working...

    Do still ride a motorcycle ??

    I've had over thirty 2 wheeled motorcycles in the 50+ years I've been riding. That includes several Goldwings that the wife and I put a lot of miles on. However, with advancing age (I'm now 70) I no longer feel confident 2-up on an 800+ pound bike with luggage, so last year I sold the GL1800 and...

    Throttle body failures - Anyone considered a class action?

    This is strictly Antidotal, but a friend of mine was experiencing erratic idle and some power loss on his 06 Suzuki DL650 at about 45,000 miles. He added 8 ounces of Sea Foam to a full tank of gas and sprayed Sea Foam into the intake at fast idle. He claims this made a huge difference in...

    Bought demo 2017 RT as new, BRP says warranty time used by dealer demo period?

    The warranty should start with date-in-service, which means the date it was first sold and registered. If the dealer registered the bike to the dealership, then that might be considered date-in-service. However, they should have demoed the bike with dealer tags, in which case the bike would have...

    Review: First Spyder road trip impressions

    MLTDWN, I'm wondering where in Az. you are. I'm in Payson and also have a 2018 RTL. Age here is 70 and have been riding 50+ years. Maybe we could meet sometime for a ride, the weather up here has been great the last couple weeks. Feel free to PM me.

    2018 F3 Limited Speaker Volume

    On the right side of the dash, using the small joystick, go to settings, then select info. You will have a number there, that's the version you have.

    2018 F3 Limited Speaker Volume

    Do you have v20.8 firmware installed? Also try setting the ambient auto volume increase. I have a 2018 RT Limited with the 6 speaker audio system. After setting the auto volume increase, I get plenty of audio at 70 mph with the volume set at about 3/4.

    music on a 2019 rt limited

    I have a 2018 RTL, and with the v20.8 firmware installed and the ambient auto volume increase setting, I have more volume on XM Radio at 65 - 75 mph than I need.

    Juuuust missed hitting a Deer! Great brakes on these things!

    Here in the mountains of N.E. Arizona our problem is elk. They are probably at least twice the size of a white tail. In town, they wander the streets and neighborhoods munching on grass and gardens. They seem to show little concern for people or vehicles. There are two major interstate highways...

    2019 F3 LTD speaker volume

    I have a 2018 RT Ltd. that I installed an XM radio on. I also could not get enough volume until I activated the ambient auto volume feature. I don't remember exactly how I did it, since it was quite awhile ago. But it made all the difference. Now I run the volume between half and three quarters...

    Intercoms

    Bscrive, I'm curious what model Cardo you had, and what you didn't like about them. I've had a pair of the Cardo Freedom 4's for a couple months now. There is a definite learning curve with them. At first I was disappointed with the 30 second timeout of the intercom during inactivity. However...
