• 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.

    Any video of 1330 with Delkevic Carbon Pipe at Revs?

    I had one of these Delkevic carbon pipes on an L-twin Suzuki and it sounded wonderful. Just want to listen to one on the highway. I found a clip of one idling on Lamonster's site but wanted to hear one at higher rpms. Thanks.

    Tank pads - Does anybody have them?

    I'm trying to source some tank pads for my 2020 RTL. Does anybody have them on their RT and if so, where did you get them. These would have the appearance of the tank pads (for your knees) of the 60s and 70s scrambler bikes.

    I don't like my driver's backrest - any better options?

    I have a 2020 RTL. On about a 200-mile jaunt, I found that the driver's backrest sits up too high. This is the stock BRP backrest. I would like to replace it with a lower flat backrest that gives me lumbar support low on my back. Any suggestions from everyone would be appreciated. Thanks.

    I just stumbled across the fact that Lamonster Garage has the exhaust that I have been looking for. It is a Delkevic in carbon and you can buy it with or without the cat delete pipe. Who has this on their bike? Any comments would be great.

    Any comments or suggestions on B.E.S.T. ?

    Been thinking about going with the BEST extended warranty mostly because of all the electronics on my new to me 2020 RTL. I've read that the major components on Spyders hold up pretty well.
