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.
Here's a look at the 2014 Can-Am Spyder lineup

:shocked: But... you put me on an RTS...
And we ordered a Limited!
I dig the picture! Thanks!! :thumbup:
Where'd you find a picture of me in shorts?? :yikes:
And that explains why you don't look happy - not enough chrome for you.

Bob,
She said that those other colors clashed with my legs; it's cognac, or bust!

OK I might as well finish the other colors so you can see.
Not a silver person myself.

Somebody needs to back away from the Photoshop... :joke:
BTW, I long ago settled matters. Unless/until we get a British Racing Green option, I'm 100% convinced that my next Spyder will be custom painted.
Ironically enough, despite my love of BRG, if I go ahead and custom paint a bike, it'll probably be something VERY different. I've had a super-secret paint plan for a while, hope I get the chance to implement it someday...

Sorry since I did it once for fun for Bob, I just went overboard. Bob seemed to like the pictures and maybe it helped him confirm his color choice.
Bob is such a "celeb" here that I just had to go hole hog

I dug it; but the prospective customers might want somebody that's a bit more photogenic on the bikes...

My dealer told me my 2011 trailer will work just fine with a 2014 RT.
big problems with the 3
From my experience and talking to the mechanics who worked on everything the atv, cycle and snowmobile biz, the 3 cylinder may have the normal 3 cylinder problems that to this day are prevalent. 3 cylinder anything typically have vibration/harmonic problems at a specific cruise speed or within a few miles of a specific mph, and many machines vibrate the heck out of your feet, which is where the vibration goes. One other problem, especially in snowmobiles and other machines is dealing with the center cylinder running hotter then the 2 outside cylinders, which in turn effects how the engine fuel air mixture is figured by the computer. Many 3 cylinders run lean and can burn up engines. Now I'm not saying the latter problem will exist, but it will be interesting to see. We're talking spark plug fouling issues.

As much as I love my RSS, I WISH Kawi or Suzuki would come up with a Sport oriented Reverse trike as competition so us Sport riders could get our fix.
BTW: No, the ST nor RT provide the same performance as the RSS.
What next year? An on board Dialysis device for those 70+ ?
In my opinion, BRP has again neglected their younger demo. Perhaps the "Younger/RSS" ideology is in violation of the Quebec Charter of Values and BRP has sided with the PQ?

Not a proper remark on the Dialysis, hopefully you will never need to have one of those machines and the horrors that comes with that disease.

:agree: emphatically! The Missus was on dialysis for six Months;:lecturef_smilie: I think that you really owe a bunch of folks in here apologies for that comment.
(I wasn't going to bring it up; but I got to thinking about it over the weekend, and then Joe set the hook...)
