• 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.

Any options for giving passenger a backrest and armrests?

Hi folks!
Getting a 2020 Spyder RT on Wednesday, first time back on wheels in about 30 years. It's the base model so doesn't have the back and armrests for the passenger. Do I have any options to get an OEM or aftermarket parts? I'm also missing the rear luggage case, which I assume I can order from BRP.
Thanks in advance!
 
As stated, parts are available.

On the arm rests, they are an accessory item that is available in both OEM and aftermarket.

IMHO the OEM looks better but if you have a plus size wife, they may not work out for her as they will not swing all the way out to give access for easy mounting and dismounting. For this reason, I do not have them, and my wife is happy without them.

Adding the OEM trunk will get expensive really quick. I have saw a couple of used ones online, but they are around the 1000.00 - 1500.00 range. Someone on here did install an aftermarket one with a backrest but I can't recall his name.
 
I bought the rear rack and bolted a Shad Base Plate to the rack. I cut a hole in the plate to access the LinQ knob.
Total cost for rack & topcase was under $700.

I got the rack and the back rest on mine works great when she wants to ride and quick change when she doesn't
