• 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.

Big deal coming?

The e-mail I got from BRP this AM appears to be more of the same.

One good thing...it looks like they are going to offer an additional year warranty on pre-orders.

Order now to get your 23 Spyder.

From the questions section.

Does this guarantee you will get one? NO, you are in the queue.

Don't know what to say further...so...I won't. :bowdown:
 
This is what they did with the '22 pre-orders. I got 3 years warranty on mine with my pre-order last year.

How generous...FWIW, when we purchased our 2014 RTS, the promotion was 2 years warranty plus 2 additional years warranty at no charge. No preorders, just walk in and buy it. Guess times have changed.

Realistically though, being a part time use toy, BRP should be giving a 4 year warranty on all new Spyder sales. They are pretty much sorted out for most stuff.

That was the same deal I got on my 2014 RTS. Only time I have had a BEST Warranty. Never had to use it. Drove the 2014 until 2020 and traded it in.
 
The latest release likely will explain that all new Spyders will be delivered with a spare replacement front sprocket and retaining bolt...
 
My dealer has 20 percent off XPS snowmobile oil but it is a pre order for Black Friday. Need to order and pay by November 12th and pick up Black Friday. Snowmobile oil is not cheap, so you take any deal you can. Not sure if that is through BRP or the dealer, but its usually on sale only on Black Friday based on previous 5-7 years. So my guess accessories only. Might not even apply to spyders but BRP products in general. Ratchet straps, shirts, helmets, gear etc. in stock and on site.
 
... Free to all!




Close. Actually, you buy the Spyder of your choice and BRP sends you the parts as they come available, right to your door!. You assemble as they arrive and you have the time. BRP took the idea from a guy who did the same thing with a Cadillac some years back. Here's his song!

Anybody ever notice the continuity errors made by songwriters?

... first I got me an ENGINE and a trunk ... then I got me a TRANSMISSION and all the chrome ...

(later...)

... the TRANS-A-MISSION was a '53 ... and the MOTOR turned out to be a '73 ...

HUH? :dontknow:
 
Hmm, keep my 2015 that has been trouble free and has the same engine and driveline as the newer models and ignore the BS.

I am also keeping my 2014, it has been trouble free except having the DESS Issue twice (both times it has been covered under warranty).

:2thumbs: .... another good reason to keep it .... Your front Sprocket isn't defective, and should last the life of the bike ..... JMHO ..... Mike :thumbup:

If, and I mean "IF," I were to ever buy another spyder I'd find a low mileage 14 RTS rather than chance a brand new model with the possibility of multiple unknown issues. Confidence and reliability supersede all else. The spyder tech at the dealership replaced my DESS w/o me knowing it because he knew the unit was faulty. He did it when he reprogrammed my keys.

2dogs,

I agree with you.
