• 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.

    Can-Am Spyder RT Front Cargo Remote Electronic Unlock

    RT's I saw that Frunk opener and checked with TricLed and this is the response I got: "Hi Chico, the trunk release is not for RT model. So it won't be the same. It's made for RS GS models only. Sincerely, - Cindy / TricLED 614.596.5515 " To me, she is saying it's not for the RT models????

    CAN THE GARMIN 660

    Yes it can. I found, by accident, how to get into the screen that lets you set up several options. I have mine set for trips that show the mileage left to destination and time of arrival..... There are several things you can change. I found the screen by touching the "MPH" display on the lower...

    Does Noisy Fuel Pump = Break Down??

    BRP - noisy fuel pump replacement How'd you get them to do that? Through a dealer? I sent in a complaint. Probably a waste of time, but I wanted to get paper work on file for future reference. I'm going to push this, because I agree, a "noisy fuel pump" is a DEFECTIVE fuel pump. Just...

    Does Noisy Fuel Pump = Break Down??

    That's the sound .... I have it on my bike and during my 3000 mile check up, "they" said there is nothing "they" can do until it fails. Sounds like a known issue and BRP should be doing a recall :yikes:

    Home Again...trailer update and misc comments.

    Glad you are home safe. It's always nice to make a successful, but safe trip...even though "murphy" constantly follows you along the way. My wife and are 1/3 through our 3500 round trip from Omaha to the east coast and back, and thus far we've dealt with a trailer flat tire - 5+ hours of...

    Oil Levels/check

    I picked up a 2014 RT Limited at Spyder Fest, trading in my 2012 RTS. Getting ready for a 3000 mile trip to the east coast and back. Doing some maintenance checks on the bike and I noticed that the oil level "seems" to be low. Don't know about anyone else, but the dip stick is hard to read...

    2014 Limited trailer hitch

    2014 Limited trailer hitch

    I just got the newest trailer hitch installed and it came with the square 4 pin plug. Other than spending $150 bucks from BRP for their adapter, I'm thinking of replacing the square 4 plug with a standard flat 4 pin. For $500 bucks for the hitch, you'd think they offer some standard...

    2014's and ECO

    I've had my 2014 Limited for about a month and a half and have been experimenting with the ECO. Supposedly, this is the computer controlled system that advises when best to up shift to the next gear. I've noticed on a cold engine, "recommend" shifting out of 1st and 2nd gear happens at a RPM...

    Front wheel reflector replacement for 2014 RT/Limited

    Picked up my new 2014 Limited at SpyderFest....Awesome!!! I am looking to replace the front wheel back reflector with lights? What I've seen is the replacements for the 2012 RT, but not the new design of the 2014. Anyone come across replacements lights for this?

    Thanks for the tip. We were just going to take 90 straight down, but your route sounds more exciting and less stressful.

    Trip To PA

    Thanks - we won't do much in Philly, since we are originally from there. Moved out west (Omaha) in 1990. Our families are still in the Philly, Levittown, Valley Forge area, so we always stop by to see them when we come back. First time riding the Spyder for the whole trip though.;)
