• 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.

    Pairing Scala rider TeamSet Pro

    2018 RTL and older bluetooth Scala TeamSet Pro headset. Headset pairs with iPhone 6S, but I cannot get the headset to pair with the bike. Has anyone successfully paired an older Scala with BPR Connect?

    I should learn to stay out of Spyder dealers

    We stopped in Clearwater's Westcoast Powersports, just to look around. I should have known better. I now own this 2018 RT Ltd. My last Spyder was a 2010 RT (see avitar), and the changes are amazing. A different and wholly better bike.

    Extended Warranty in Florida

    When I bought my Spyder in 2010 I was told the Best Warranty was not available in Florida. Is this still true? I did purchase a third party warranty through my dealer that would reimburse me for the cost of repairs, and wonder if this is still the only option available to Florida residents...

    Bye Spyder

    After my Spyder left us stranded in central Mississippi and had to be shipped back to Tampa, I just couldn't trust is for long trips. So, yesterday I left the Spyder world and joined the Goldwing trike world. We owned an 02 GW, and this 2013 brings back a lot of fond memories. I hadn't riden a...

    FANTASTIC SERVICE AND SUPPORT WHILE STRANDED

    On my way to Spyderfest my bike died in Winona, MS. Had it towed to FRS Powersports on Whitten Road in Memphis, TN. Denny Spears immediately went to work on the bike. After hours of searching he determined that it was a major transmission problem, and he wouldn't be able to get to it for a...

    Bike just died!

    Got a motel for the night, went out to eat, riding back the throttle quit working. Engine ran fine, just doesn't rev. It seems like a throttle problem. My real problem is that I'm in Winona, MS and the closest dealer is in Memphis, 117 miles away. Anyone know of something I might try to get...

    Heads up for Florida riders heading for SpyderFest

    Just a heads-up. Bring warm clothes. It gets pretty chilly as you head north. We're in Atlanta for 2 days, and we find it cold. Left Valdosta this morning and it was in the high 40's and low 50's, and took a long time to warm up.

    BRP RT Intercom question

    We got so tired of fighting with the installed intercom that we bought the Scala bluetooth headsets and they are great. However, for our trip to Spyderfest I would like to be able to use the CB and installed intercom for group rides. Does anyone here use the installed CB and intercom, I'm...

    Scalarider question

    We use the TeamSet Pro and love it. But occasionally we here a beep, or maybe two beeps together. THe User Guide talks about blinking lights, but nothing about beeps. I assume this happens when the set reconnects, but thought I'd ask. Cheers, Mike

    Trip odometer

    While returning from a nice 250 mile ride today I noticed that trip odometer A was not working, at least not reliably. It would sit on a number for a long time, then suddenly change to a new reading, several numbers ahead of the previous one. Sorry, couldn't find an easier way to say that...

    Fl Keys bound

    While eating lunch with Mouthpiece and Cindy, Chris mentioned that he'd like to ride to Key West. Well, with the weather getting into the low 80's this week, Sis and I decided we'd do just that. Since we haven't ridden any distance in awhile, we started late this afternoon and made it to...

    No AM reception

    We seldom use the radio, but spend a lot of time chatting via the intercom. While riding alone today, I listened to FM for a little while, then switched to AM and tried to find my favorite local station. I used search, but the radio never locked onto a station, no AM at all. I was riding just...

    BRP Headset

    BRP is claiming that my GPS doesn't interface with my headset because I don't use the BRP headset; mine is J&M which works with everything, I thought. They asked me to hook up a BRP headset and see if it works, but my dealer doesn't carry them, and I doubt that another dealer would be willing...

    Heated Gear

    Does the RT have the ability to power an electric jacket and gloves. It would be great if someone made a controller that monitored the battery and would automatically reduce the power used, or turn itself off if the bike was not generating enough power. I am afraid of running down the battery...

    Spyder RS-S review

    Just received the September issue of Rider. The cover is a great shot of an RS-S, and there's a good review on page 48. Mike

    Who was that?

    We were driving north on 675 headed into Atlanta about 10 am this morning when we saw 4 Spyders headed south. The first bike as a black RT with a trailer, and a couple riding on it. The last bike was an RS. I'll bet is was part of the Florida crew. Hope everyone had a safe, trouble-free...

    Just my luck!

    First we decided that Sis wasn't ready to ride to Cherokee, and I decided to go alone. Today, HP decided that I really needed to be available and shouldn't take off to ride. So, we will hold down the fort here in Florida, while y'all enjoy a great trip. I pray everyone remains safe, and has...

    Ready to Ride!

    Had my 12K service done, Elka shocks installed, and I'm ready to ride. Leaving Wed or Thur for Maggie Valley. Unfortunately Sis has not healed enough to make the trip, so I'll be riding up alone. Hope to see y'all in NC... Mike

    Chrome coated plastic

    I noticed that the chrome coating on the words Can-Am has started to come off. Several of the letters are partially black. This is also happening to a friends bike which he bought a week before I did. The bikes are one year old this month. Is this common? :dontknow: Mike
