• 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.

Is there any good vids to sort out the 2018 connect. I just bought a set of freecom 2s ,have not even opened the box .If i would have known all this teck crap would be ( for me )such a pain were i sit i would not have bought this bike.I am just about to the point of taking it to the dealer ,here you sort it out.
 
After turning the ignition on you’ll eventually see the radio where you can push the joystick left/right (holding it left or right) to tune into stations.

Punch the joystick IN and you’ll see “Stats” now you can move the joystick up, down, left &right to navigate to the different things.

Pushing down own a few times you see a gear symbol push the joystick in to select.

Now or you can select and set up the Bluetooth headsets and pair the smartphone. Pair the phone first. It might take several tries. Once paired, turn off the Bluetooth on the phone so it doesn’t interfere when pairing the headsets. Navigate back to settings and set up the headsets. Might take several tries. Then push in to return to previous menu.

The smartphone one needs to have BRP Connect open when you plug it into the bike.

I can can make videos if needed.
 
Thank you for the vid ,clears up some things . I do not like that i can not listen to the expensive radio and aux on Bluetooth . It makes the built in radio a useless brick as you can not hear it while on the road or through Bluetooth . I guess the radio is used while cleaning the bike .:mad:

My F3L is almost same. The average l/100 is always 0.0. No matter what I have tried.

I suspect you need the updated version 12.2 that your dealer can install. Fixed that problem on my 18 RTLtd. You can check your version by going to settings then down to the bottom where it says "About". If your version number is below 12.2, get it updated and that problem will be resolved (as well as other problems).
