• 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.

    Are your CB transmissions clear??

    CB transmission I have posted several times the improvement found by myself, my dealer and BRP. First set the squelch and mic vol very low and the CB on local not distance for group riding. The dealer found that all of my CB related grounds were very loose, one only finger tight. Bad dealer set...

On our 2011 Limited all of the grounding straps were loose. One was only finger tight. The staps that were loose where...

    Can anyone recommend a Central FL - Orlando area dealer?

    Barney's has our vote We bought from Kissemee but had numerous service problems. When we bought the bike they over filled the oil and we had a heck of a time just riding it home. Called them and brought it back and they sort of gave us a hard time about the oil level. The too high oil level...

    BRP Canada contact needed

    Thanks for the information. I will give him a call. as to the problem--- lets just say the level of service quality is not what I expect from a million dollar dealer.
