Heck... I'd be happy with a 3 banger...

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.
New Spyder next year.

The guy I was talking to was not familiar with Spyders. He said from his observations the Spyders were real "squirrelly" at high speeds in turns. I explained "Granny" to him and he said these Spyder's definitely did not have "Granny" or anything else like that on the Spyders they were testing.:doorag:

You're not going to get anything out of Lamont by simply pulling out his fingernails. But put a big mean dog in the room and he might tell you whatever you want to know!!

I touched a BRP product in January 2008 and I'd be very happy to touch another one... If there were enough of a change to warrant the contact. Touch first, worry later....
Besides, I've found there are enough people out there worrying about stuff that I don't have to!

What is your logic for wanting a 4 or a 6?

I would like to see the new model come out with less electronics,manual throttle control then most of us could work on them, and not have to worry about some local-yocal dealer who doesn't give a "Rat's Ass" about us!! 6 speed tranny or alternate rearwheel pulley, 2"more ground clearance,

Ain't this version of the "Silly-Season" fun? :roflblack: I guess that we'll all know more for sure in a bit over 2 1/2 months.

opcorn:Ain't gona happin !! Electronics slow us down along with soft suspensions!! Legalities, you know like signing that you know you are driving a bike with three wheels and only one brake! BRP don't want to be sued!!

More HP. More Torque. Speed and Power.....:doorag:
I would like a Harley type motor. So we can have the really load rumble sound, and leak oil all over the place.
On a serous note, I would like cruise control on the RS like the RT has. Also the ability to install on earlier years too. This way I would not have to buy a new RS.

Might be hard as the current RS throttle is a cable where the rt is electronic (fly by wire). Cruise could be added but it's a more complicated addition than with electronic throttles.

This is all your saying Lamont...I say we slip a bit of laughing gas into Lamont's shop and get someone who is qualified to ask certain questions...
Question one...do you have a pet raccoon....Lamont ....yes I do
Question two...do you have a tattoo....Lamont...yes I do
Question three...is BRP putting the Apralia motor in the Spyder....Lamont...Maybe I don't know
Question four...Why is your voice so funny...Lamont...because I think you used Helium instead of Laughing gas:roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:
that's why I said get someone who is qualified

You really expect BRP to build something so you don't have to buy the new version to get the new stuff? :roflblack:

Would they be better served with tweeking the existing 990 engine, i.e. different heads, turbo, or displacement increase? I like the sound of an inline engine, but I just do not see that happening.

Bob called it right when he named this "Silly Season". We seem to go through this exercise every year, with the same wishes and speculation. I don't see these dreams coming true...at least not for a while. The Spyders are still selling well, especially the RTs, so why reinvent something while it is still surging? The RS is a bit longer in tooth, but I see another model rather than a wholesale makeover of any kind. Of course my crystal ball works just about as well as the one the gypsy down at the carnival has, so take anything I say for the nickel it is worth.
