• 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.

    Headlight "hazing" pre 2019 RT models

    A question out of curiosity regarding light covers on the pre 2019 RT models. In Australia our low and high beam headlights are in different positions as shown in the picture below: I am on my 4th set of plastic lenses for the low beams, and I use the standard HB3/9005 bulbs. The...

    Insurance renewal rescinded (Australia)

    Today, I was informed by my insurer - Australia’s largest - that they will not be renewing the insurance policy for my '17 RTL. As mentioned in a separate discussion, I spoke with a friend who is a lawyer at another major insurer. She mentioned that concerns such as parts availability, the...

    Anyone removed the rear Top box/pannier assembly (Aust up to 2018 RT models) is the t/light plug the same as the trailer plug?

    If you have, do you happen to know if the plug you disconnect that supplies power to the tail lights etc is the same plug where BRP has us insert the trailer module? Background When I bought the towbar in 2019 it came with the BRP Relay. To install I needed to separate a plug under the seat...

    After some Guidance on how to route wiring in my example?

    A few years ago, I added a set of driving lights to my RTL, then later a trailer bypass relay and some cameras. Overall, the setup works great, but there are two issues I haven’t been able to fully solve: The messy “rats nest” where all the project wiring converges at the ground/fuse...

    FS: RT 622 Trailer Lights - 1 x Red and 2 x Orange LED Clearance lights (Australia Only)

    I have 1 x Red and 2 x Orange BRP Genuine RT 622 trailer LED clearance lights. I decided to replace them all when a red light failed. I have cut the connectors off to re-use, so the lights are missing 5mm of cable. Make a reasonable offer - will ship to your location DM me if interested.

    Looking for ideas - where to mount a Bypass relay for trailer supply other than where BRP would have us put it??

    A recent 4000KM trip had a few 39/40 deg C days, and they seem to have cooked my bypass relay for the trailer supply. It progressively got worse, intermittently losing functionality in odd ways, and eventually some functions ceased to work altogether, so I am looking for a cooler but dry spot...

    Grease all over the back of my RTL, and I'm thinking, "Where from... ??"

    My wife and I are on a 2 week trip and while at a pit stop yesterday, I noticed grease splattered on the rear of the top box, rear guard, and trailer. It seems to be a fair qty and I think its too much to be from something having failed on the RTL. The only places I can think of are the Swing...

    Does anyone have the dimensions for the Strut bush - 2017 RT Top Box?

    While trying to improve the water sealing of my top box, I dropped the top bush for the strut into that cavity under the seat where all things disappear. Does anyone have the dimensions?

    Anyone come across a Source for an Aftermarket Indicator BAU15S Socket to suit 2012-2019 RT's and RT622 Trailers?

    I have a troublesome Right indicator socket that intermittently stops working on my 2011 RT 622 trailer. There are several off the shelf items available, but something in me says BRP would not make it that simple to just use a standard BAU15S Socket. I am also assuming I have to buy a half...

    Questioning wearing Ear Plugs while riding

    I just saw a post on Reddit of a guy being hit on an MC from behind while slowing for traffic lights and it reminded me of my intention to post this. A few weeks ago I was away for a weeks holiday with my wife on the coast. An event happened that has me questioning the types of ear plugs I...

    Damaged my RT-622 Trailer Coupling Lock - need info/advice?

    Following an act of laziness on my part the other night, I managed to damage the key lock and had to drill it out. Does anyone know: What specs (Diameter, Length, Offset position - where the two halves meet) Where I can get one (I havent looked at BRP - I asume it will cost the same as a small...

    Need to tap into Reversing Light in '17 RTL Wiring - ideas where?

    I need to tap into the reversing light circuit for my trailer Bypass relay and tried to locate the reversing light circuit in the schematic. I can locate the reverse button but nothing else (Position N8 on the schematic). Am I having a boy look or is it genuinely not included in the schematic?

    Paintless Dent Removal - does it need a special glue? Or what?

    I purchased a Paintless Dent Removal kit and already own a Hot Glue gun. I had no success with the process - it seems the "tip" dislodges from the panel without pulling the dent out (1/2" hailstone dent). I am using an ordinary hot glue gun, is there a specific type of glue stick required for...

    I'm now on the 2nd Vers 2 front sprocket

    Went to the dealership this week to have a wheel alignment and an inspection for an insurance claim. Came back to the bad news that the wheel alignment wasn't done because my Version 2 (or is it 3) of the front sprocket needed replacing and was done under warranty on my '17 RTL. This now makes...

    Thank you mother nature for the reminder

    Yesterday I rode home from Grafton NSW and just wanted to extend my thanks to Mother Nature. The trip is about 650km ahead, and around 7 hrs ride time not including fuel stops for the '17RTL and myself. I was thinking of linking up with some mates further down the east coast at "bike night"...

    Can the bulb socket be replaced in tail light assembly RT models?

    My 622 trailer has the same tail light assembly as my '17 RTL and the R indicator socket has lost its spring tension when holding the bulb, resulting in it not working from time to time. Is it possible to replace the socket without having to replace half of the trailer :) ? I imagine the cost...
