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.

Glad to hear she is okay physically but probably really bummed mentally. I know I would be.

Ann...First things first...I'm glad you're ok...Beyond that I'd be extremely ticked off...BRP already had one of thier machines flame up at a demo, now yours...reminds me of the problem with the 08-09 GS's and I thought they had that rectified. You're one of our ambassadores in my eyes and I hope this doesn't discourage you...Keep the faith..I'm behind you as well as many others from Spyderlovers...Let me know if you need any kind of help while you're on the road...Larry & Cindi..

A few have... except for the explosion.
Her sig shows it as a 2013 RT-S SM5. I sure hope this isn't an intrinsic problem with the 2013s. :lecturef_smilie: The one that burned up earlier in the year at the demo event makes two 2013s this has happened to that we know about. :yikes:
With all the problems Ann has had with her 2013, this might be a blessing in disguise.

Ann I am so glad you are physically okay ! I hope you are mentally as well !
All I know if this would have been my bike I wouldn't be able to get off fast enough into my wheelchair to not get burned I'm afraid .. It makes me worry that BRP is being so slow to rectify heat issues on 2013s.

I'm glad you are uninjured. When things cool down (pun intended) please tell us what happened . . . what was your first indication of a problem, and how long before the Spyder was engulfed in flame? Your comments may save someone else injury, should this turn out to be the leading edge of an issue with the 2013.

Thank you all for your concern. I'm shook up but okay. On my way home and now I'm getting low battery indications on my phone so you will have to wait until later for all of the fiery details
