Stupid question of the day, maybe month but here goes...

Ok, I already know the answer is going to be no, but I thought I would give you all a laugh at my expense.


Is is the spyder ODBII compliant,:roflblack: I know that's an automotive spec and I know they have there own buds system.

let me explain, I'm not a tool head but I like my gadgets, not interested in service codes or resetting anything. If I have an issue with my spyder, I do my research here then off to the dealer.

On my cars I have Bluetooth ODBII readers that dump out information to my phone or my Garmin GPS (not 665) it gives out echo readings and other stuff about the engine.

Not that I have any great need for this information it's just because you can, thought it would be cool if you could do the same thing.

ok you can stop laughing now...

I still want my SpyderDoo so I can go seamlessly from road to water to road again, just because it would be cool and it would satisfy the Bond that's in me.

SO the SPyderDoo would the ski's come out of the frunk and down from the rear. That would be cool. :doorag:

It's actually a pretty darn good question! :2thumbs:
But no; they aren't!
The BUDS system is functionally different from an OBDII system.

the buds report is amazing. when they sent the report to BRP on my bike i took a copy, i have absolutely no clue what the report said but when i got a call from steve from BRP he told me things that i never knew could be on the report, such as shifting rpm and cruising speed and rpm temperatures ,hours and so on. so the answer is no

 

[finless]

There was a guy here that was trying to decode BUDs using ODBII. It is a can-buss but with BRP propritary protocol. He made "some" progress but then stopped trying.
I am sure with some searching you can find that post.

see now that would be cool, if they sold a cut down buds system that just did this report. Like you I have no clue to what it all means but it would make some great bed time reading and a great gift for those that have everything.

I assume "they" is the dealer? Do dealers not have the ability to analyze BUDS data or was this something unusual that needed factory support?

Bob, I still like the Female "Q" better, although I am not suggesting that you use her as your Avatar. There was one episode where the she "Q" took the guy "Q" to task big time. But then again, I always thought "Q" looked more regal as a judge than any other character he became.

John DeLancie made that characer his very own... :2thumbs: :clap:
Q was the "Bad-Guy", who wasn't really all that bad...
...and definitely had STYLE!
