• 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.

Time For Sparkplug Change

At 36,000 a bit past due, but finally had time to do this. Since I will be gone for the rest of November I also did the oil and filter change and will add fuel stabilizer for winter.

A lot of fun (not), but glad it's done.

Well done....

Knew it was a pain now I see.... But then the twin had that problem with the front plug. I eliminated the Airbox and problem solved. Well your all set for a while longer...:yes:

Not sure if this is any harder then that on the RT as you have to remove a lot for that also, but as you said I am good for awhile now.:2thumbs:
 
When it came time for new plugs, I found it was easier to let BRP replace the whole engine assembly......
 
Yikes...!!!

I know the iridium plugs are good for better than 50,000 miles but thought the engine was good for a bit more....:roflblack::roflblack:

I just had mine done on the 2015 RTL 1330 at 33,000 miles. Dealer said plugs still looked very good, so I wonder how many miles you could acutely get out of them, maybe 50,000?
 
YUP

YUP, BEEN THERE, DONE THAT.... NOT FUN.... :yikes: :banghead: :gaah: :shemademe_smilie::dg2:
but i am happy i did it... at age 70, it took me two 5 hour days to complete the task.... and with 44,480 miles of smiles on the original plugs, i found them to be in excellent condition... enough to last well over 100,000 miles i believe (see pic #4)...
note: i STRONGLY recommend that you change your fuel filter at the same time (pic #5)... :thumbup:
