• 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 notice the lines on the '11 RT-S appear sleeker. Also like the black accent under the front turn signals on the new white. I wonder if the new headlights on the '11 can be purchased now for the current RT-S's. would sure be an improvement to their current headlight setup. Thanks for posting Lamont. I think it's a beautiful new lineup.

Might be able to order the white panels or just have yours painted for less than the loss you'll take on yours.
 
My guess is they changed the springs and valving on the shocks. It will swap out with the 2010 and I'm sure they will be cheaper than any of the aftermarket shocks. I still love my Elka's but I do have a set of the new BRP shocks heading my way to test.

The re-calibrated shocks sound like a real winner. I was very impressed with the current RT Shocks on the RS. Amazing difference. Now I'm glad I waited (always late you know).

Sometimes procrastination pays off! :yes:

I'm definitley getting a set of the new RT shocks for my RS. I know I'm going to love them!

I'd actually like to swap my silver SM5 for the burnt orange model. That looks AWESOME! It's going to be a Rock Star syndrome revival!

Good luck stopping for gas and getting out in less than 20 minutes on one of these new rides.

I know BRP didn't give us everything we wanted. They are saving a few tricks up their sleeve I'm sure. But they did do some very good things and addressed some issues that will make a real difference. It isn't all bling.

Thanks BRP!
 
Suspension

Thanks Lamont for the info. Looks like BRP have realized that the front suspension needed something done. I have my Elkas and they work, not 100% for me but a vast improvement over stock. I hope to hear your input on those 2011 shocks. Someone mentioned Gas Shocks. Himmm, now that sound better but BRP has a bottom line I'm sure. No change in the engine dept. Higher displacement, lower reving, multi cylinder?? Not Yet !!!:sour:
 
Here is an idea.... Maybe BRP could show up at the BBQ with one of these prototypes! AWESOME!

I'd say there would be 1 or 2 (or 250) that would be interested.
 
Dang...... no more fast RS's.... the yellow is gone.. and I guess the silver is also..

Just have to keep my yellow to keep up with Doc's Silver.

However, of all the new colors,, that Pearl white looks good.

Sorry Forrest. This is gonna be the closest thing you will find to a yellow Spyder. The Banana Spyder.....soon to be extinct too.:roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:

I really liked the white RS, and it looks great on the RT. As dirty as my blue RT was last week, I think the white would drive me crazy.

Outside of silver, white is the easiest color to keep (looking) clean. Unless of course you drive on muddy dirt roads.
 
Color me this...

I love the new colors...wonder if they will offer a body panel kit for 2011?
 
Great looking colors. I really like the new RS colors with the black accents. I had a silver 08 SM5 and now have a silver 2010 RT SM5 Audio & conv. I like the silver but the new platnum is nice!!! The new front shock calibration is not all bad either. Thanks Lamont for the preview.
 
Cool!

I think the orange is cool! Just like cars etc. as time goes by everything is always improved. Thanks for letting us see the new pics. :D
