• 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.

    Nerves??

    Ok I may not be really curious... Was trying to get some order in the garage and I stumble over the "gifts" I received from BRP last year when I bought the RT. In between a pin and a patch there was what I thought was a deck of cards as in playing cards... I opened it today and it was a stack of...

    RT Lacking Top End Power

    Speed Yes its slow.... never been able to get mine over 100 on the GPS, speedo was showing 107! A bigger engine will be welcomed: better mpg and more umph at a lower rpm!

    Ram Balls on the handlebars

    I am thinking of getting this kind of kit.. But what to attach on it?? My Zumo fits comfortably in the middle... I know that IPhones are not waterproof nor shock proof... A camera will not give a very nice angle of view there (and is there something more boring than endless films of roads? Only...

    Girl pays insurance company to defend her own killer in court

    Reminds me what happened to me... A Ducati kid missed a turn and smashed into me on my Norton... Story short: days of surgery for me, weeks of hospital, pain out of this world and a limp and a 1/2 functioning arm (i.e the RT now)... My lawyer took the short way and went for my under insured...

    Grip buddies

    Looks like the glue on my left grip buddy gave away with the heat and 3000 miles... The grip was turning around.... So I glued it back with Gorilla glue and tightened it with metal wire " a la cafe racer" of the 70'... If the glue hold I'll may take the wire off!!

    VALVE ADJUST, MILES

    I do not see the correlation between changing oil and the valves?? With the poor quality gas we have in the US I am sure the valve seats take a beating and valves are getting tight up there. Like with any performance engine (high rpm) I will get my valves checked around 15000/18000 miles and it...

    Sway Bars from Down Under

    I installed one on my RT -11 a month ago before going on vacation... 3500 miles after I think this is one the best change to do on a Spyder ( great bang for the $$$)! The RT feels more planted on the road, no more mushy feeling in the handlebars and the nanies seem to kick a lot later. It took...

    On a $28.000,00 bike??

    Seeing the windshield top moving right and left for 11000 miles, I was surprised it did not break before!! My shocks are stock on position 4 and I now have a larger sway bar which makes the ride firmer and faster in turns. The fender stay is still a mystery as I do not see any forces at work...

    On a $28.000,00 bike??

    Me thinks: a bad design on the windshield arm: just look how the entire thing is moving on bumpy roads! A dry weld on the fender stay?
