• 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.

My 2017 BMW R1200RT Premium has the following ride modes and suspension settings:
Electronic Ride modes:
  • Rain
  • Road
  • Dyna (Dynamic)

Electronic Pre-load:
  • 1 up
  • 1 up with luggage
  • 2 up

Rebound:
  • Soft
  • Normal
  • Hard

My 2020 Spyder RT-S has the following Ride Modes & Suspension settings: 1- Can Am factory settings.

So, I just installed a Pedalbox from BAJARON, and I now have several Ride Modes to choose from:
  • City, with 4 levels
  • Sport, with 4 levels
  • Sport+, with 4 levels
Any of the above can be selected "on the fly" if you desire, and I rode the same 5 mile loop, testing all of the settings, finding that the Sport mode, level 4 suits my fancy for most riding. While it only affects throttle response, the effect is (to me) pretty magical, wringing out the inherit power of the 1330 engine with smaller throttle twist....it's like having the BMW RT's Dynamic mode on a Spyder, and I can turn off the Pedalbox and revert to a more-sedate ride at any time if desired. I was skeptical, but really like having the various settings to suit my fancy on a given day.
