• 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.

Don't really expect an answer, but WHY all the BuRP ads?

Fixed it here for you Eckhard. :thumbup:

Occasionally, some posters just forget that not all readers use the same devices, have the same default display colors/capabilities, or might have a different perception of color/color differentiation to their own; and then there's those who may have a real 'color blindness' issues too!! Because of this, big blocks of Red, Yellow, or Blue text seem to be the most problematic. :gaah:

If we can, we (the mods) will try to remedy any 'display' or 'reading' issues you may find in others posts (due to those mentioned or any other issues you may have) if you bring them to our attention (PM being the preferred option, but we can still work with posts like yours! ;) ) but sometimes (& particularly with display issues of pics or imported images that aren't 'attachments' or 'thumbnails') there's not much we can do! :rolleyes: . Glad I could help this time tho! :ohyea:

Didn't realize there was a shortage on the bikes , I got a new 2020 over a 2021 just under a month ago for a discount on the 2020 F3, I just wanted a base F3 to build off of. And he had plenty of 2021's on the lot.

What seems to be a shortage of is the 2up seat and the foot pegs for the F3. I ordered the driver backrest, passenger seat, and removable passenger backrest (sissy bar).

I received both of the backrests but the foot pegs and passenger seat are still on backorder and when I called the other day the parts guy there said he has 17 people currently waiting on them and they keep pushing the delivery date back, currently it is April 21st.

Why does BuRP flood the internet and TV with adds for Spyders when they can't supply existing demand? Three dealers in SW Florida have no 2021 models in stock and don't know when or if they'll get some. I bought the only 2021 RTL I could find within 150 miles of Ft. Myers Beach. Which leads to my second question:

Why does my 2021 RTL have THREE different buttons to control radio volume? Seems like one or two would be sufficient.

P.S. My avatar shows the 2019 I traded for the 2021 noted above.

Are you surprised you received answers?
It's marketing strategy trying to create an interest/demand. I see ads for things I can't get all the time. Recently, while watching March Madness there were ads for Marcos Pizza, Zaxbys and Jimmy John's amazing they're all restaurants, none in my area.

Did not see the commercials since I do not watch Basketball. Here we do have all those restaurants nearby. Never ate food from Marcos, gave a look and wrote it off as a Dominos clone. Zaxbys is ok, but unfortunately has low end help and the place is always kind of dirty. Jimmy Johns does a good job, clean and decent food, not bad, kind of an upscale more expensive Subway.

In short, your life will likely be just fine without eating from those places.

I don’t know what networks you’re watching. Up here in western Canada, we’re watching ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, as well as CBC and CTV, and I have not seen ANY ads for Spyders or Rykers. We do see the SEAdoo and the Snowmobile ads, but NOT VERY OFTEN, maybe two times during the season. As for other brands...HD is probably the most, but them only maybe once a month....and yes, I do watch a lot of TV.

I've never seen a Spyder ad on TV in this part of Maine.
