• 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.

Good afternoon, hope everyone is riding, we've had our share of era in lately with more coming today. Are all or most of the screws on the Tupperware the same, I'm always worrying which one goes where. Thanks, Mike
 
from your i.d. photo

your i.d. photo is that 2012 or so r-t ? the screws are pretty much the same , there are a few different sizes (1) the under the seat screw that is part of the plastics , that one is a shorty , the ones in the main parts are pretty close in size , the ( 2nd ) is the lower plastic that covers the the area behind the foot rest , these are 2 different sizes in this area , ( I think the longer ones are in the rear section , and the others are upper area ) ---> WARNING WARNING ----< when you take these parts loose they are help in place with a clip type nut --- the clip is around the mating part that the plastic is nest too or covers , the just slip on , so when you take it apart and you see that this clip is loose , I would either zip tie it in place or take it off and put it with the corresponding screw that will be on the take off section of the Tupperware ... ( I do not know what guy at any shop would do this , but it would not be a surprise if there is actually a nut that will just spin in place as you try too take that one screw out , so if you can kind of keep an eye out as you go ... ) you can go too some of the b-r-p can-am sites that handle spyder parts and get an exploded view and a list of parts if you get lost ! easy peasy ! ( well not so easy , try not stepping on all the skins laying around as you go :yikes: ) :roflblack:

Thanks, 2014 RTLTD, JUST LEARNING HOW TO REMOVE AND INSTALL ALL PANELS
 
One of my tricks to keep screws organized, is to use a sheet of paper under a pill organizer. I write notes on the sheet of paper pointing to the appropriate cell reminding me of where the screw(s) came from. Or if all the screws are the same, I sometimes place them in the panel/component they held on. I'm pulling the whole trunk/saddlebag section off and will take pics of the system.
 
Here is a tip. The screws that go into painted plastic have washers, the others do not. There is a short screw on the water deflector and on the back of the top panel under the seat. The interior of the side saddlebags and the rear saddlebag are plastic screws and are Torx 25 or 20’s, can’t remember. The acoustic panel has a longer screw in it but it is a 30 Torx. The rest are pretty much the same -30 Torx - with or without washers.

We use a bin, one for each side of the bike, and all of the fasteners go in the bin. When the job is done the bins are empty.
