• 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.

    Has anyone come up with a Device to hold RT lid open?

    Has anyone come up with a device that secures the lid on the back case of an RT in the open or up position. My wife gets her head banged every time she opens the lid to find something.

    Can I play music from a usb drive on a 2021?

    I just have to chime in to say that BRP Go saved the day for us. Been trying to get my wife’s playlist to play on her 2020 RTL from her new iPhone SE, while maintaining GPS connection. Loading BRP GO seemed to make everything work with ease. Thanks, BRP.

    Help Needed interfacing GPS & iWatch7 with 2020 RTL sound system?

    Okay, the problem is solved. My daughter uploaded the latest version of BRP connect to the new iPhone. Then made sure the Spyder controls were set for Bluetooth output to speakers (not to helmet) and both music and GPS run through the Spyder speakers with no problem. Remember this is a 2020 RTL.

    Help Needed interfacing GPS & iWatch7 with 2020 RTL sound system?

    Is anyone using a regular iPhoneSE tied to an iWatch7? Need some help on interfacing these with a '20 SpyderRTL sound system. Have installed BRP connect to the iPhone with latest upgrade. Is it just plug and play to access the GPS?

    How do I get that Map in the Signature Block???

    Ours is a bit different because we’ve roamed farther afield than most. Had to combine two countries and do some photoshopping.

    Need to get over Fear of Leaving my Spyder in Hotel Parking Lots Unattended O/night

    From the looks of the replies, your worries are unfounded. If you look through the list of motorcycles shown in our signature you will see how many rides we have parked at various motels and hotels in almost every state and province. In 47 years of touring we have yet to encounter a problem...

    Review: New trailer for the RT

    When we drove our 2012 RT’s both Penny and I had Can Am RT-622 trailers hooked up. Since she has owned her 2020 RTL storage has not been a problem but a couple of recent shopping trips had her suggesting how handy it would be to have a trailer again. The dealer price on a Can Am trailer is...

    Trailer connection - any adaptors Can-Am to std 4-wire?

    We just purchased a trailer to pull behind my wife’s 2020 RT Limited. It is made by US Trailer in Greenville, SC. and based on the specs should not be hard on the Spyder. For many years we towed the Can Am RT -622 trailers with our 2012 Spyders that required a special wiring for the 622. We will...

    We all have some unusual road names out there, What's yours

    When my wife stated riding back in 1974, female riders were very rare. So she had her bike painted bright pink. The only means we had to communicate back then were CB radios. Her CB handle was ‘Pink Butterfly’.

    USER NAMES/HANDLES - What does yours mean? Where did it come from?

    My wife and I both rode Spyder back in 2010 so when we joined we just adopted the name 'DoubleTrouble'... in 2016 Penny contracted cancer and was given just six months to live so she gave up riding and we sold her SpyderRTL. Shortly thereafter, I was having no fun riding alone so I sold mine as...

    Wife wants a Spyder, need some advice on any auto trans problems?

    My wife currently rides a 2020 RTL that has the 1330 powerplant, but before that she put many miles on her 2010 and then her 2012 RT’s. The 2010 had a severe heat problem that we never solved, so after she got tired of cooking she moved to a 2012 RT limited. The 2012 served her well for 30,000...
