• 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.

Has anyone wondered if? Just putting it out there

I work at an auto dealership,and the manager had the manufacturer deny a warranty claim on a car that was under warranty...He was on a forum and had videos of him racing at the track..He was wanting us to warranty his transmission that went out...The thing is,if he would have come in and been reasonable from the start,nobody would have said anything..But,he came in demanding and got into it with the manager...The manager went to the forum,found him and printed it out...The difference here is,everybody here maintains their machine and doesn't abuse it..If you do abuse,don't brag about it here!

No abuse going on here! Just normal driving with my wife. I don't have a trailer and I don't overload the bike. Oh! No video of me at the track.
 
How can they tie the poster's user name to their real name (in most cases) and to a specific Spyder?

Very good point, I think people here are doing things to make their ride a little better w/ aftermarket parts to make the ride more comfortable, or a little quicker without pushing limits.

At least that is how it seems.
 
John,
Have you noticed any yellow & black helicopters circling your neighborhood? :yikes:

I think he should watch for black SUV's pulling a trailer of Seadoo's going by his house all the time! :roflblack:
Helicopters? That I doubt!

I had a physiatrist once tell me I was paranoid, well in didn't exactly say it, but I knew that's what he was thinking....


I know this post was some what tongue and cheek but I don't think BRP as the time to work out who's who on these boards. If they can work out who I really I'm they're welcome to blacklist me.

Without a doubt; :thumbup:
NEVER post anything that's going to give them the proof that your warranty SHOULDN'T be honored...
But this should be obvious! :banghead:

Yep and don't list any wild warranty altering add on's in your signiture. ;)
 
The only black list that i know of is, ''If'' the dealer gos and%%^$#@&*(((((((#@@!@
but that is the only one i know of...
 
Does anyone know if BRP is using this site to black ball anyone that mentions anything negative? I usually wouldn't think this way but you never know. Could they use it to deny repairs? Why would dealer need to call in order to get pre-clearance on what should be a warranty repair. Why even give a warranty if you might not cover a particular repair. How is this supposed to instill confidence?

First off...let me say...when your Spyder is brand new and has problems and every time you ride it another problem surfaces...you begin to go crazy.....I'm certifiable....

1.The dealer cannot repair a warranty item without permission from BRP
2. The dealers have a network that they use to ask other dealers and BRP how to repair something...if others are seeing the same problems etc...
3. Do you have a case #? If not you need to get one.
4. Please try to find a happy place until BRP sorts out all these problems....trust me I know this one will be difficult ...I have been to a very dark place...at the moment I'm OK....I do believe BRP really wants to make the 2013's right...but not sure how

hope this helps....cause all you want is your new 2013 Spyder to work right....everytime

i am some what of a devious person and i think you might be right, but if they were really doing it than my bike would blow up with me on it for the e mails i have sent them and what i have said on here, HEY!!!! come to think of it this might be the reason i didn't get the parts for my heat fix yet lol
You know that occasional screen flickering you get on your computer..........................................:yikes:

do you really feel BRP will find a fix where they won't have to put a lot of money into our bikes, i don't to me honest with you. i feel the only fix is to re work the whole cooling system that will not be cost effective to them. we now see on the 14's all of the changes they did to fix this problem. i am sure with a couple of fans located in the right places would work but do we have the power to do this. now in my last post http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?58881-kind-of-expencive the floorboards would block some of the heat, i think, but the expence is there and how many people can afford to do it.

Here are my mods and enhancements to my 2010 RT.
I can't imagine any of this impacting my warranty

Replaced the original XPS synthetic with Mazola. Spyder runs hotter but exhaust smells like fries and that's a good thing

I never changed the filters, I did wipe out the cover on the transmission cover once.

Removed the radiator and oil cooler.
Both weigh roughly what I've gained since I bought the Spyder so it's a zero sum thing

Changed the leaky stock shocks to two that I found in a dumpster behind the Sunoco station, they sorta fit

Was going to change the plugs to those iridium ones but I found a deal at Lowes on a couple of plugs I found in their leaf vac department.

Was going to have the laser alignment done but the service guy said I would have to replace the bent wheel first Picky Picky Picky

I did have SpyderPops put on the bottom shield, now when I jump the ditch iin the pastuer while rounding up the alpacas t doesn't make that cracking noise as much

YOU THE MAN
