• 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.

    Not the first police spyder, but probably the best looking one.

    Eco Mode/shift coaching

    My shift indicator doesn't seem to work very well. Sometimes the indicator comes on at 2000 rpms, then it will be 3500 rpms, then 3000, etc. About half the time it will never even come on, regardless of how high you take the rpms. It is sporadic, unpredictable, and has no rhyme or reason to...

    RT-S and RT-622 wheels - need advice

    I didn't realize when I bought my RT-S and "matching" RT-622 that the wheels wouldn't match. My bad, but now I'm trying to decide what to do. Apparently BRP doesn't have trailer wheels to match the wheels on an RT-S. The trailer wheels only come in chrome or aluminum. I talked to a local...

    Question about the new 2014 RT

    I was planning to wait and see what problems developed on the 2014's and probably buy a 2015 model.... BUT .... local dealer has a cognac 2014 RT limited and matching trailer coming in this week AND the wife gave me the green light to buy it. She also told me to keep my RSS. I know, something...

    Fog Lights

    Can anyone confirm for me that the BRP fog lights for a 2012 RSS are different from a 2013? I bought a set for my 2012 at the dealer today. I asked them if the kit was for a 2012 or a 2013 and they told me the fog lights were the same for all RS's. They even checked the part number and told...

    Rivco Floorboards

    May not be the right place for it, but I wanted to share my experience with Rivco. I put the floorboard on my RSS about 3 months ago. I really like them. The other day when my wife was getting on the Spyder I noticed that she stepped on the floorboard and as she twisted her foot to get on the...

    Need help finding part

    I pulled the rear wheel to change the bearings. I was able to change two with no problems, but the last one has a nut that requires a special tool (socket spanner p/n 529 036 113). I can't find it on the BRP parts site and searches turn up nothing. Anyone know how I can order this special...

    RS fender brackets

    Like many others have experienced, the rear fender brackets are cracked on my 2012 RSS. It is covered under warranty, but I wanted them replaced with the 2013 brackets that are reinforced to prevent the cracking. That would require a new fender so the dealer said BRP wouldn't do it under...

    Huntsville area ryders

    I'm in Huntsville all week for training. I hate sitting around the hotel so I rode my RSS down and plan to do some afternoon/evening rides to pass the time. Any good roads or places to visit while I'm in town? Thanks!

    selling stuff at Spyderfest

    I have seen several people selling stuff and willing to bring it to spyderfest. Next year we should plan a specific time and place during spyderfest for everyone to bring the stuff they want to sell or trade. Could be like a mini flea market for farkles. Would that be a conflict or would we...

    Parking brake

    Changed my rear brake pads about 3000 miles back. I have adjusted the parking brake a few times and now there is no more adjustment left. I checked the front of the cable at the foot lever and it doesn't appear to be adjustable. The rear of the cable has no more thread for adjusting and there...

    Twisted Sisters

    I rode the three sisters today for the first time. It was a great ride! Love the Hill country of Texas. Left the house 7:00 a.m. and didn't get home until 9:30 p.m. 646 miles total. Some interesting signs up on one of the sisters.

    Gas smell is back

    I thought the new gas cap had solved my fuel odor issue. I only experienced the odor once or twice after installing the new gas cap and then it just stopped. I even did a 300 mile ride last weekend and had no gas smell. It has been odor free for well over a month. But today the temperature...

    GPS and bluetooth

    I am trying to find an inexpensive GPS that will bluetooth with my Sena SMH-10. Yes, I have searched and read through the forums, but I haven't found what I'm looking for. There are several units under $200 that are bluetooth, but appear they will only connect to a phone for wireless calls...

    Shout out for BajaRon

    Just wanted to give BajaRon a well deserved endorsement. I've had very little interest in the all the anti-swaybar buzz I've been reading. I felt like my RSS could handle curves way faster than I was willing to take them. However, while I was ordering some brake pads from BajaRon, I decided...

    Question about Hindle exhaust

    I am wanting to put a Hindle on my RSS. I have read through thread after thread but I am still a bit concerned about doing it. I have read a lot of post that indicate you don't need a JUice box or power commander as long as you don't change the air filter. But it seems the people changing...

    Spark plugs

    Stupid question. Just changed my spark plugs and the ones I pulled out had white paste on the threads. What is it (dielectric grease maybe?).... Do I need to do this to the new PLUGS? Never seen plugs with this stuff on them before.

    Ride to Spyderfest

    Seen several people from Texas who are going to Spyderfest. It would be nice to get a group together for the ride up. I am planning to leave Fort Worth the morning of the 23rd, but I am flexible if anyone wants to meet up along the way.

    ISCI handbrake and Bumpskid

    Spent the day installing my christmas mods, an ISCI handbrake and a Spyderpops Bumpskid for my RSS. Neither went very smoothly. Bought the handbrake used and it didn't come with the bolts or clevis pin. Had to run around town but managed to find the stuff I needed to make it work. The...
