• 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.

    A little warm today

    Hot foot I had a 2010 RT and had no heat issues at all. Just traded for a 2012 RSS and man it is hot on my right foot. I had a 2009 Kawasaki concours 14 and the heat issue from that bike was a big problem to a lot of people but never bothered me so I don't feel that I am very sensitive but the...

    I was there about 2 weeks ago and they had about 20 units on the floor and what looked like 70 or 80 in crates out back. Just about every color and model was on display.

    Louis Powersports

    I have bought 2 spyders from them and have been happy with them. I spent a day there a couple of weeks ago while they installed some options on the new RSS I bought and they had 95 spyders in stock with about 20 on the floor and many many crates out back. They seemed cheaper than most other...

    Contacting Carlo or someone at BRP

    Contacting Carlo Thanks to everyone for the advice. This website and the people on it are wonderful. I have been very happy with my dealer in trying to fix my problems. I think they really want to help me. It seems that these machines are difficult to deal with in some cases. I also agree when...

    Does anyone have an email or phone number different than the one on BRP's website. I have a 2010 RT that has never worked. It has been in the shop 97 days in the first year of ownership and I have had it to two dealers and no one can seem to fix it. It has the infamous limp mode problem and I...

    NEW Full RT cover rated in Catolog for Trailering

    Cover for Trailering I put one on for the first time heading to Spyderfest last year. I spent a lot of time and had it on properly and withing 50 miles it had torn apart at the seams on both sides. It looked like the sewing at the seams had just come apart. Then after it did the thin fabric...

    dave01 question....

    Hate to Leave the Spyder Culture Sorry to hear about your problems but I also feel your pain. I just hate having to admit that my Spyder does not seem like it will ever be functional.

    Limp home mode

    Limp Mode Good Luck Brother! I have the same problem. It did not start until I had 1100 miles on it and the first time no problem showed up. Now they are saying I am riding the brake which is bogus. I watch my brake foot more than the road. I wish you better luck than me, but I dont think...

    The Spyder Blues I too am frustrated with my Spyder. I have owned about 30 motorcycles, 15 boats, and 35 cars and trucks as well as many 4 wheelers, golf carts, riding lawn mowers and dozens of small engine machines and my RT is the most frustrating machine I have ever owned. Its not the...

    elka shock pictures and FRUSTRATION

    elka shocks I talked to a really nice and helpful guy at Elka today and he had me text him pictures and says they are upside down. No one asked me prior to shipping whether RT or RS or about weight or guards so I dont know if I have the right ones or not. How could I tell. I can see how the...

    elka shocks No one called me or asked me anything about the shocks or wt. they told me at Cowtown during spyderfest I would get guards but did not.

    elka shocks I bought elka shocks when at Spyderfest and still have not gotten them delivered. I called Cowtown a few weeks ago and was supposed to get them a couple of weeks ago. I guess they are so popular it is hard to get them.
