• 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.

Brp response to steering issue

I contacted BRP[Carlo] by e-mail on Monday 8-23 in the am concerning my issue with steering lockup on my Spyder. I was surprised to get a personel call from Carlo in the early pm of the same day concerning my issue. He indicated that BRP was aware of this issue on other Spyders, wanted to be sure I had left the Spyder with the dealer for corrective action, and said they would follow up with the dealer and their service department to get the problem fixed.

While the proof will be in the correction of the problem, I was pleased to see that BRP customer service was this responsive. I will keep you informed of the progress.
Thanks

Thanks for the post, and I hope they get the issue fixed for you quickly.
 
update

BRP has authorized a dps replacement and the unit is on order. The dealer tells me it is expected to be at their shop either Friday or Monday and that it will take over 1/2 day to install. I should be back riding by next week.:2thumbs:

Good luck-- please let us know how it goes!

I'm taking mine in tomorrow for some work, including a DPS problem. My guess is it will need replacement. Dropping the Spyder (stripped it down nekkid) tomorrow--- told them they can have it for 1 week and 1 week only. Told them if it needs a new DPS, they better be on the ball and GET ONE because I'm picking the Spyder up next Friday.

I picked up my Spyder today 8-28 and the steering unit has been replaced and it handled like a charm on my ride home. Total time down was one week. Great job by BRP and my dealer.:clap:

That is extremely good to hear. Here is an "At-a-boy" that BRP deserves. Like Capt. John said, one "ah-crap" beats 50 "at-a-boys". Nice job BRP! :thumbup: And the dealer delivered too. I would like to think that this is the new trend. better response from BRP, quicker resolution and effective execution from the dealer network. :congrats: Glad you are back on the road!
