• 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.

Is This Normal Hissing?

I know that the rear compressor on the RT-S is supposed to make some adjustments while riding, but do y'all hear it PSSTing a LOT?

Just want to know if I have a problemn.

Mine did a lot, at first, too. Never does it anymore. I think I am the one with a problem...LOL. Guess my wife telling me that all these years finally sunk in. :roflblack: Seriously, when I told BRP it didn't seem to hiss anymore, they seemed concerned, so I'd say the hissing is normal.

Yes mine does. But it is funny to watch a new rider in the group have a panicked look on their face when they first hear it and think they have a tire leak.:doorag:
 
We had never heard ours, but weren't too worried because both of us wear hearing aids. Turns out, while we had it in the shop for an oil change (and to check out the rear shock) they found out that our air system didn't work. I just talked to them on the phone to see if I could pick up the Spyder. They have replaced the rear shock but said that BRP would announce an update for the air system on Tuesday. So, hopefully, we will be able to get it back sometime late next week. The service guy said they would be replacing some of the fittings, etc. He didn't know for sure what all they were doing. It appears this might be a developing problem. I'm hoping that the cure might help the handling.
