• 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.

    2010 RTS

    I have over 70,000 miles on my 2010 rt. The only major issue is a clutch replacement at 65,000 miles. I think some of the early problems were with dealers not yet knowing how to deal with them. I agree on making front suspension changes Elka shocks and Baja Ron sway bar make a great improvement...

    Elka shocks

    I have over 40,000 miles on mine and no leaks or problems. John looked at them during the last Spyderfest and suggested not doing anything yet. The annual rebuilding is aimed at off road tag racing, which I think has been their primary market.

    V Twin Valve settings

    I have had mine chcked last at 48,000 miles no adjustment needed thus far. I now have 67,000 and may have them checked this summer. For all I have spent on checking a valve job may have been cheaper.

    Reliability

    Yes my Spyder seems to require lots of maintenance but I have driven lots of miles and it has never broken down. Plus I have had lots of fun, met great people and seen some new places. Ride, be safe and have fun; if the Spyder causes you more worry and than fun sell it and move on.;)

    It is great to see BRP have a good year. This means that they are likely to continue to make, support and develop the products we love. Like many others in this industry BRP has had some very hard years. Instead of cutting back, BRP continued to innovate and introduce new products.;)
