• 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.

    "USB MALFUNCTION" connecting iphone to 2020 RTS

    Definitely cables - I've had to replace a USB cable used on my RTL that was causing BRP connect to lose it occasionally. Especially - if your phone's connection is the older "micro-usb" and not "usb-c" - check that cable. The connector gets ratty quicker than you think.

    I Hate To Be Negitive B-U-T

    I believe in the connection between a luxury vehicle and the number of problems reported. The spyders are on the pricey side and of course they don't sell as well as a standard motorcycle. As mentioned above - I think Can-Am is putting out a fine product built and doing it paying first-world wages.

    I Hate To Be Negitive B-U-T

    American quality has been dropping since corporate America decided to go for "rape-me" level profits. That's why so many things are foreign made - because corporate America doesn't pay it's workers enough to afford an American-built product of the same level of quality as foreign made.

    Rebates on 2020 spyders

    Spring time is when left-over models get the really big rebates. I bought a 2018 in 2019 and got that big $6000 dollar rebate.

    Custom Paint job

    Has anyone attempted automotive "wrap". That would be interesting, and if it sucked or got torn off, peel it off back to stock. I wonder too about textured surfaces - you need to use some kind of a primer with the right adhesion characteristic for the plastic. Of course, you'd lose the...

    Garmin Observation

    The backing behind the LCD displays are semi-reflective in these types of units. Basically, sunlight behaves like a backlight making it easier to see the display. Perfect for marine applications.

    whats the best time of year to sell?

    Price definitely has a functional relationship in moving vehicles to sale - but I'm going to go out on a limb and unscientifically say that spring is the "bestest" time to sell. That's the time everybody get's the 'itch' to ride after a winter of hibernation. It might allow you to catch a 5%...

    BRP Connect - what are the approved apps?

    I'm satisfied with Genius Maps. It works fairly well. There are some minor things here and there, but most of it is related to the fact that it has to run on the right side Spyder display, and has only the joy-button for input - which is a challenge for *any* app, to be honest. Within those...

    BRP Connect glitchiness fixed for us

    Got me one of those long, braided cables they sell at the truck stops. Gives plenty of room to move the phone around in the frunk, and I prefer to put the phone in the fronk's front net pocket instead of the rear on in order to keep the phone cooler.

    If history is any guide, unless there's mechanical changes, the only difference between model years is paint, and sometimes not even that.

    Anyone used Pedal Commander on RTL

    Look like what it is doing is simply intercepting the pedal position and replacing it with a non-linear response. It's gonna change the throttle positional response that you feel, but it can't give you any more performance (hp, torque)...

    BPR Connect / AccuWeather Help

    One thing to check for whenever any app seems to not load/misbehave: The app may be 'asking' for new permisssions. I've noticed that this (the permissions dialog) will show up on the phone - but not on the spyder's display. Once you click the ok in the permissions dialog (on the actual phone...

    I have a pleasant problem

    I bought an RT Limited for touring and sold my '01 Goldwing. It's just a totally easier affair 2-up touring with the RT: easier getting on and off, more storage, easier on my knees. The Goldwing is a heavy beast and I was reaching my limits in 2-up riding. I've kept my old Roadstar, it's set up...

    What to use to repair minor "scuffing" on the tupperware?

    I've had some good results getting a finish decontaminated with a clay bar. Certainly, the whole process goes faster than polishing compound. I'm still leaning toward the polishing compound being more thorough though. I wonder if there's a certain type of clay they use for autos, and can I get...

    What to use to repair minor "scuffing" on the tupperware?

    Use a polishing compound at first. Turtle wax polishing compound works well. Use a rubbing compound if it's really bad - but by hand. A rubbing compound is more abrasive. Be sure to put on some fresh wax when done.
