• 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.

    AC joint separation - have you ridden the Spyder with one?

    Last month a car pulled in front of my '76 RD400c from a hidden drive and I went over its hood into a ditch. Separated my left shoulder AC joint. Have started PT and yesterday rode the Spyder around the neighborhood a bit to check the ability. No pain at all from riding, just donning and...

    How do you guys with multiple bikes handle Riding other bikes?

    Great riding weather is here and the rest of my stable comes out - a '78 GL1000, a '76 RD400, and a '72 Triumph Trident that I just finished rescuing. It's hard enough for this old brain to re-program for changing from the '21 RTL to the Japanese bikes, but changing to the British...

    Whoa Nellie! Large oil patches on roads left by cars!

    On my way in to bike night yesterday evening, I was following four cars on a two-lane, when all of the sudden out from under the car in front of me appeared a large fresh puddle of oil. They had all straddled it, but the rear wheel of the RTL went right through it, and WOW! what a dance she did...

    How many S2S owners have travelled the S2S Hwy?

    Just curious - how many S2S owners have traveled the Sea to Sky Highway (or have plans to)? Seems it would be a good destination ride for those owners.

    Did my own 3000 mile oil change - not a big deal

    Today, I did the first oil change on our 2021 RTL @ 2999.7 miles (close enough?) I used BajaRon HiFlo filter and seal kit and Rotella T6 5W40 oil. After warming it up, I used Harbor Freight plastic 6" ramps to run the front wheels up on and a 2x4 under the rear shock mount to jack it up level...

    A sub forum where each member could start a thread to use for their maintenance log would be nice.

    HowTo: Installing Utopia and other seat brackets on 2020+ RTL

    Apparently, some folks have been having problems with this. It really is easy (if you know the tricks, like everything). So, I did a video showing the tricks that I know. https://youtu.be/Vt46_D_inzA

    2020/21 Heated Comfort Seat Driver's Backrest - is there one?

    Does anyone make a driver's backrest or the 2020/21 heated comfort seat besides BRP? All that I see say "stock seat only". Does the heated comfort seat qualify?

    2020-21 RTL pass arm rests - any a/mkt or mods to swing them open?

    Is anyone developing an aftermarket set yet? Or, has anyone looked into a modification that permits them to swing open wider for mounting? The BRP video shows a 120 lb 20-something popping into the seat happily. Doesn't look like real women (or men) will be able to do the same. Does BRP realize...

    Need a Stiff hitch for a Uni-go - recommend any?

    We have a 2021 RT Limited on order. We want to pull our Uni-go behind it because of the convenience of just rolling it into your hotel/motel room (Yes, even using elevators) for ease of unpacking and security. They already make an adapter that mounts to the hitch ball hole. That ball plate...

    Well, I have a price

    New 2021 RT Limited Dark in Chalk Metallic with Heated Comfort Seat. From iMotorsports (Mike). Beats anything that I have found around here. Now to get the boss to approve. Anyone need a 2006 GL1800 Premium Audion with Full Monty Traxxion and 125k miles or a great 1979 GL1000 with 80k miles...
