• 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.

I know but three dealers of told me the Vin number we took it in on trade because I work at an RV dealership and I payed less Than book Wholesale for it so I'm not complaining but I understand what you're saying
 
Was just wondering if there is any modifications to get a little bit a rumble out of it not looking for a horse power just a slight increase in sound so the deer and the people can hear you little better, for example when I Have My Rd., King classic I put a slave to slip on mufflers just increase a little bit of noise not a lot
 
These bikes will never sound like a Harley... :shocked:
If you kick around with the search feature, and look for exhaust videos; you can get a pretty good idea of how they'll sound. :thumbup:

The HMF exhaust I used sounds pretty good if you just want a little extra sound. It does not require any mapping just simply replace and let idle for 10-15 minutes.

Well, they can be made to somewhat sound like a harley. They tend to sound sort of like a Vrod with the right pipe.. But I know what you mean. In fact, some harley riders will not even consider the Vrod a harley, even though it is the only really fast one that they have.
 
Yeah I'm not worried about the Harley sound, I know they are nothing alike I just want a little more noise so the deer and other people can hear you :shocked:
 
NICE!! Those front fenders are different also but I like the white on black.[emoji106]
I thought the same thing when I saw it. Those look like earlier fenders to me. Our 14 has the center rib going down them. That black front end seems like it should be white also, shouldn't it?

This is ours.

Here is a 14 Limited in white.

That is not a limited. Make sure the VIN on the frame matches the title/registration. Wouldnt be the first time a dealer has issued the wrong title. The base ST has the old style fenders. Something doesnt sound right if the dealer is telling you the VIN says its a limted. You better look a little deeper into it.

Yeah I understand Can-Am and three different dealers say it's a limited I'm with you guys but again the pittance I paid for it not worried for seven grand without a scratch on it I'm not going to complain it does have the cruise control the stereo and all that stuff, the only problem I have is I have to replace ignition switch
 
For $7k I wouldn't complain either! As far as the ignition, I think I'd take that to the dealer seeing there's some programming involved.
 
Another word of advice. Don't let them sell you the valve check service recommended at 14,000 miles. It will cost you $800 or so additional. The valve checks are mostly not needed. Dealers know this, and sometimes charge for doing the service even though they do not touch a wrench.

I did the service at 14K on one :ani29: and 28K on another. Neither needed any valve adjustments. I am not even considering it on my final two cylinder until at least 50K--if then.

The newer 1330's do not require periodic valve check maintenance. :yes:
I will have to disagree on the valve check. I just had mine done at 14,000 miles and 7 of the 8 valves were too tight. I know a few others that had the same situation. I guess it's up to you on if you want to roll the dice.
