• 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.

Bret BRP messed up my Spyder!!

My only point was Kurt told Lamont (my interpretation of Lamonts post) the higher bar reading had nothing to do with what he did to Roger's Spyder, when infact it did. And he should have known it being a head tech. I'm sure he was one of the first techs to get this memo regarding it and failed to read it.

Because if he did read it he would have told Lamont to tell Roger, that it does change the heat bar indicator and that would have been the end of the story. But that is not how it played out. Do you understand my point now my friend ??? :thumbup:

But I still belive Roger about the cluster change creating more heat on his Spyder. You and I both know that the owner knows how there own personal Spyder feels and sounds better than any tech ever could. And if somthing didn't feel right we would know it right away.

By the way, how was Fenway Park ??? I hope you did not go there and see a Red Sox game concidering I'm a Yankee's fan ??? Then we'd be fightin !!!:roflblack::roflblack:

It was my thought that the release came out after the 'Roger' incident -- and perhaps due to that incident......:dontknow:

He very well may be having a heat problem-- but it isn't due to the cluster update.

And yes-- I saw the Red Sox play at Fenway----- :D

Your interpretation is wrong.
The memo came out the day I posted it here, Kurt did not know about it nor did anyone else other than the guys who made the change. When I posted my temp reading and confirmed that the scale did change and the temp did not it was soon released that this was in fact the case.

OK, I stand corrected with my interpretation !!! Why would BRP not inform customers or there techs that with the odometer fix comes additional changes everyone should be aware of ??? Did they not think people would notice ??? I hope BRP learns from this and informs us from now on with any additional changes.

They did, that's what I posted and was sent to all the dealers to tell their customers.

I'm not sure why you keep your Spyder with all the bad mouthing you do about BRP and the Spyder. I just don't get it :dontknow: if I hated a company and product as much as you do I wouldn't own any of their product and I would get rid of what I had. nojoke

Do you really think the average Spyder owner pays much attention to the temp gauge? We live in a turn-key society where most don't want to pay attention to anything mechanical. People don't generally check the temp on their car or even the oil for that matter -- they just put the key in and drive it--- and I think many (if not most) Spyder owners are pretty much like that. Not saying that you, I or Roger are like that -- just that many are.

I don't see it as a big issue at all -- and the programmers probably thought it would go unnoticed..... and I have to admit that I didn't really notice it until the 'Roger' incident.

I had mine updated on the road on the way to TN this year-- and just didn't notice it-- but once I got home and read about Roger-- I did remember noticing that I was running like 4 bars one night when it was 73 degrees out-- which I thought was a big odd -- but didn't alarm me.

Now that we all know what the deal is--- it's time to put the issue to rest.....

I never once said I hated my Spyder. I post all the time how much I enjoy riding the Spyder. But I am honest enough to also say what the downfalls are.
I know you have a close ties with BRP and I'm sure any postings from people (and lately it's everyday) which include BRP shortcomings gets you upset and I'm sorry for that.
