• 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.

    Storage locks not catching

    Something very simple and easy to check (especially the frunk) is the runner gasket that goes around the opening. If that get popped up, the lid will have a hard time to latch.

    Belt tensioner Roller failed, ruined my belt.

    I would not even trust it for the 9,300 miles between oil changes!!

    Belt tensioner Roller failed, ruined my belt.

    Big shout-out to AY4B for bringing this to our attention. Checked my RR tensioner and found roller detached from one bearing and coming apart on one side. Would soon have caused belt damage for sure. Removed it yesterday and will throw it away - not worth the worry of a roller on my belt. 18...

    F3 slight braking on it's own

    Just a thought - you might check parking brake cable at rear wheel to make sure it is not adjusted too tightly. Very easy to check.

    Manual Gear Selector

    BIGMO My 2018 RTL is acting exactly like yours. Will not shift into neutral and refuses to go into reverse. Forward gears are fine. Getting worse all the time. Anxious to hear what your dealer has to say. Can't take mine to dealer now because of upcoming trip (not on spyder).

    Dealership Shout-Out

    Not too far from Gainesville is West Coast Powersports in Clearwater. Their staff is first rate and Jason is the best tech around (IMO). Very knowledgeable. competent and caring. Very personable also. I highly recommend this dealership. I have purchased 3 Spyder RT's from them.

    BRP Connect and Genius Maps on 2018 RT Limited

    To answer both your questions - you can program destination both ways, but much easier to do it on phone before connecting. Second, mine came with a card in instruction packet where i could sent it in for a rebate of the purchases connected to Genius Maps. Hope this helps you out.

    Android with BRP Connect -- Overheating

    I have the same problem using the same phone and Genius Maps. Plus it seems to drain battery instead of charging it. I'm giving BRP Connect very low marks. It doesn't seem to work very well and is quite difficult to navigate through. I hope someone can shed light on our difficulties.

    vibration at speed

    This sounds very much like drive belt vibration. I recommend the belt vibration dampener sold by Doc Humphreys at Roadster Renovations (A sponsor on home page). Works great for me.

    2018 Dash Software Update

    My phone is Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge and the 30K can be paired to only one unit, so I pair only to the Spyder and make any changes to the 30k by connecting to my computer. There is not much to control on the 30K once you have it configured the way you want, so pairing to phone is unnecessary IMHO.

    BRP BELT TENSIONER

    This vibration seems to occur in most cases between 70 and 75 mph. If your belt doesn't vibrate around those speeds, then you have no need for this damper. Be happy and enjoy.

    2018 RT L dash and connect

    I suspect you need the updated version 12.2 that your dealer can install. Fixed that problem on my 18 RTLtd. You can check your version by going to settings then down to the bottom where it says "About". If your version number is below 12.2, get it updated and that problem will be resolved...

    2018 Dash Software Update

    Genius maps has a volume control in the App. On your phone, open genius maps and on the map screen you will see icons on bottom of page. One icon is a speaker. Hit that and volume control will appear. Strange thing is all comments I've seen here seem to say volume is too weak. Maybe this...

    2018 Dash Software Update

    Had the 12.2 update done at dealer yesterday and notice the improvements already. I will try Genius Maps next time out. My phone and both Sena 30K units pair up perfectly every time. Music stored in my phone plays great and sounds great in headsets. One thing to keep in mind is if your phone...

    I should learn to stay out of Spyder dealers

    That is a great look with the blacked out lights. I was thee yesterday for service, maybe we crossed path. If you need help with the new BRP connect system, Jason (their service tech) will be able to help you since he has worked with me quite a bit on mine. There is a learning curve to deal...

    Another question about the 2018 dashboard, anyone knows how to access the tripmeter

    When in the stats screen, just joystick left and it will move to one trip meter and joystick left again to the second trip meter. You can then hold joystick down and it will reset trip meter to 0. QUOTE=ottawa-rider;1354305]As anyone with a 2018 figured out how to access the tripmeter panel...

    BRP Driver Backrest

    Removing my BRP Driver Backrest from 2014 RT Ltd to put on new RT Ltd. It was installed by someone else and I don't know if those nuts under the seat are captive to the seat or are they installed when original installation is performed. I'm referring to the 4 nuts that hold the bracket which...
