• 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.

RT Vibration Damper Installation

Nice...!!

This should make it easy for all...:bowdown:'s and the panel removal s a big help...:thumbup:
 
RT Vibration Damper?

Thanks for your detailed video. Is this Damper something I should be adding to my 2016 Spyder RT Limited? What difference is it going to make?
 
I'd have to say, this tensioner (for want of a better term) got rid of vibrations I didn't know were there. My RT now goes down the road, and rides more like a car instead of a motorcycle.

I have a 2017RT-S and a 2018 RT limited.
The 2107 has 3100 miles on it, and the 2018 has 1000 miles on it, and they both have the dreaded belt vibration problem at about the same speed.
If I install your vibration remover, do I lower the belt tension down too? and to what?

I talked to the dealer where I purchased my spyders and the service manager told me that they only installed one of the BRP vibration removers in the past.
This dealer will sell 50-60 spyders a year, how is it I am the only person with this problem?

Sorry I didn't see this before now. The belt harmonics are kind of strange on the RT. Our 14 RT didn't start vibrating until about 5k miles were put on it. So, it is possible that some people don't ryde enough to experience it. Also, since it comes on gradually, and is of a different nature for each Spyder, it doesn't bother some people.
My suggestion would be to purchase one and install it on whichever RT that is worse and see how much an improvement it made. Then you can decide whether to fix the other one.
