• 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.

    Comfort Backrest Bracket

    I was searching the site for info on the subject of the BRP backrest and bracket. Currently I have the stock seat with the BRP backrest and bracket. I am thinking about changing to the comfort seat. While I am not particularly uncomfortable, I would appreciate a bit more legroom and to be back a...

    First Major Farkle

    Backrest Robmorg, my only "visible" Farkle to date is the rider backrest. It was on order when I took my pics so it doesn't show. I'll make sure the next one is visible. Lol. But to be honest, other than a few minor things, I am very happy so far with the stock setup. Stock seat is...

    First Major Farkle

    Today I received my BajaRon sway bar and Lamonster links in the mail. Three days after ordering them. Great service from ShopSpyderLovers.com. Got them installed in about three hours give or take. Had to borrow a floor jack from a neighbor to get the front of the Spyder to the requisite...

    Planning a ride through Central and Northern CA - ideas wanted

    Sierra Nevada's I was born and raised in the L.A. area. If you are heading up to central and northern CA, then I think you ought to look at hitting the Sierra Nevada mountains. Consider highway 395 up the eastern side of the Sierras to Lake Tahoe. Lots of beautiful scenery. You can cut over...

    1330, The Great Oil Debate!

    Just Curious I have seen several posters that state they change their filter every other oil change. When I was growing up and learning maintenance on cars, my dad taught me to ALWAYS change the filter when you change the oil. I'm curious as to why some of you do not. Surely the cost of a...

    Serious Question about Summer Riding

    Modular I bought a modular helmet a while back. Gives me full face protection while riding and the ease of opening it at lights or wherever for a quick drink.

    2011 RT Limited electronic parking brake will not release.

    Excellent This is why this is such a great forum. The guy posts a problem he is having and within an hour and a half he gets good advice and solves his problem. Sweet.

    TRIP IT

    Personally, I have always used Microsoft Streets and Trips. Easy to plan out a road trip and easy to load into my GPS. Been using it since 2010.

    Bought the Demo Model

    Not much room Rob, I had my girlfriend sit on the RT with the stock seat and then figured two inches less for the passenger. When you add the backrest, it looked like the passenger would be pretty squeezed. I want her to be comfortable as well. If anyone has experience with a passenger and...

    Bought the Demo Model

    Farkles Not sure about the Farkles yet. I have the driver backrest on order and it should be here next week. I've got my iPod working so that's good. Beyond that I will wait awhile until I get used to her and how she handles. My first item will likely be a cover of some sort. And a GPS...

    Bought the Demo Model

    Not this year MurphyBrown, thanks for the kind words and $0.02 worth (even tho I didn't ask :)). I heartily agree about the forum and choosing those I want to read and comment on and those I don't. I won't make Spyderfest this year. Other plans in the works. Although I do plan on taking...

    Bought the Demo Model

    In an earlier post I was wondering about buying a 2014 RT-S demo with a little over 300 miles on it (322 actually). The price was way less than a 2015 equivalent. After some back and forth with my dealer I finally pulled the trigger. They had to go up to Phoenix to pick her up and I took...

    Demo Model 2014

    Thanks Folks First off, thanks for all the sage advice. I too thought of it as a no brainer but wanted to hear from some experienced owners first. On the subject of warranty, it looks like BRP has a promotion going right now where all new 2012, 2013, 2014 & 2015 models get the two year...

    Demo Model 2014

    Folks, I have the chance to pick up a 2014 RTS SE6 for a deeply discounted price. The only "issue" is that it has 380 miles on it from demo rides. My question to you? Is it worth it? I know a lot depends on the price. I can get a 2015 for about $4K more for the same model. I only demo'd an...

    Transition from Two Wheeler to a Spyder

    Thanks Thanks everyone for your thoughts, experiences and input. I rode many years ago and had a Kawasaki ZL1000 but had to sell. Then got married, had kids, etc. finally bought a house in 2007 and felt justified in getting a bike. Started after 15 years on a Kawasaki 900. Three years...

    Transition from Two Wheeler to a Spyder

    I posted earlier about taking my first Spyder test ride. And the fact I want to test ride a 1330 to compare to the ST I rode last week. I have been thinking a lot about it and am curious about those of you who transitioned from a two wheeler to the Spyder. And why. For my part, I was in an...

    First Ever Spyder Ride

    Thats a great idea OMZ. I'll see if I can get my girlfriend to go on a test ride. We have a second dealer here in Tucson that may have an RT I can test ride instead of the F3. That way I can get a feel for how the RT handles and she can see how comfortable she is on it.
