• 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.

    2020 RT Belt Tensioner

    I don't have vibration issues on my 2020 RTL. I didn't have vibration issues on my 2013 RTL. A belt drive is going to vibrate, its the nature of the system. With that said, it's a choice of the owner. I figure BRP has engineers that know what characteristics the belt drive has and vibration...

    Speaker Issue - distortion at Hwy speeds. Any suggestions?

    I totally agree! Why "share" your music with the public? Especially at low speed or at a stop light, some motorcycle riders blast their music, just like some cars, which can be obnoxious.

    One hot phone

    You're correct, engine heat dissipates from the glove box. After a ride, I pull out the compartment to help cool.

    2020 RT 2" Risers

    F3 clamp all the way! That's what I used, works without any further modifications, wiring harness is long enough!

    2020 RTL Demo Ride

    Hello, I purchased a 2020 RTL in Petrol Blue, I traded my 2013 RTL, and have NO regrets! The new RTL is vastly improved, this is my first 1330, I had the 998 twin in my 2013. The new Spyder is so much smoother, I say go for it!

    Gave up on BRP connect

    I feel your pain, 2020 Spyder RTL. I just had the same issue. Genius maps is actually a dunce in the gps/navigation area. Sygic is better, but the connectivity issues with my Cardo Freecom 2 unit and BRP Connect causes failure to connect BRP consistently. I had to disconnect iPhone and...

    2020 rt limited wants to downshift from 4th to 3rd

    Brp came through!!! Bluetooth stuff works now!!!

    That's great! It's good to hear BRP getting kudos for once! It sounds like the firmware update brings your BRP Connect up to 2020, which is great. BRP connect can be temperamental, but I have found that first connecting my iPhone to my Cardo freecom headset, then connecting to BRP connect...

    Time to hang it up

    Hi Mike, thanks for the information, very helpful! I just traded my 2013 Spyder RTL for a 2020 RTL, but I still look at potential issues. Your advice is very good; if I were the gentleman with the DESS issues, I would have been looking to trade in my Spyder the first time it stranded me...

    Gave up on BRP connect

    Hi, thanks for the insight, I forgot about the mode of operation, I use Genius maps for that reason, and Google/Apple maps can also download a route to your smartphone. Thanks! :agree:

    Gave up on BRP connect

    The 2020 BRP connect is glitchy, but I have to say I haven't had as many problems as some here with earlier models. I bought Genius maps, which works well, but I can also run Apple or Google maps without Connect. I have Sygic, but haven't tried it. One reason I read for BRP not featuring...

    Short reach HB 2020 rt limited

    I put on Rox risers and an F3 handlebar clamp, which eliminates the need to snip or cut anything. Original wire harness is more than adequate, nothing else needed.

    New 2020 RTL GPS Issue

    I simply bypassed buying a GPS and I use Genius maps, I paid for the app and software, it works offline with your smartphone, and it even works on my F150 with Synch.

    To all you 2020 RT and RT Limited owners.

    Same here, nice of BRP to cover my new Spyder for free!

    2020 Spyder RT Limited Bluetooth Helmet Questions

    Update: Returned the Sena units, and purchased Cardo freecom 2+ Duo. Better sound, an app that works, and better ergonomics in my opinion. ��
