• 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.

Can anyone tell me, when replacing handle bars to short r
Reach hb, do you have to replace the wiring harness to reach the new position?
Thank you in advance
 
I think you have to release some tie-wraps, but there is adequate wiring. I wound up putting on the Heli-Bars, and there is plenty of wire for them.

I posted a thread about installing rox risers on my 2020 RTL with a picture showing the zip tie that must be cut. Basically remove the right speaker grill and find the wiring harness where it comes up in front of the steering column. Kind of a pita to get to but I was able to get a diagonal cutting pliers on it and snip it.
 
I put on Rox risers and an F3 handlebar clamp, which eliminates the need to snip or cut anything. Original wire harness is more than adequate, nothing else needed.
 
The short reach bars may be a little too close for you on the RT. I put a pair of stock F3 bars on mine and they might still be a little close. What I need is a set of long reach bars.

If the stock bars were too far then the long reach bars will be even farther.

The stock bars from the F3 (on the RT) may be too close. The long reach bars are farther away from you, no? At least that's the way I understand how BRP labels them and you can't tell from the diagram in their catalog.
 
Look at the Helibars. I installed them on my 2020Rt and love them! They are easy to install. The wiring harness will reach if remove a wire guide and some tie wraps.

You may be right, I can’t say that I have ever seen a set of long reach bars.
