• 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.

What could cause this Squeal on starting out in first gear?

My dealer swapped out the Chinese battery for a good Yuasa battery earlier this year, so I don't think the battery has anything to do with the noise. Amsoil going in on Wednesday, so we'll see if that makes a difference.
Did the change to Amsoil make a difference? I've got a '23 RTL with 20K miles and have been hearing similar noises for a while and considering trying the Amsoil.
Also, did you use the 5w-40 or 10w-10?

My 2019 Spyder F3 had a squeal around 2500 rpm. Dealer adjusted belt to no avail, but then changed the pulley and resolved the issue. My newly acquired 2022 F3 had some squeal about same rpm. Dealer again adjusted belt to no avail. I took a video of the tach, with the squeal audible, and sent it to dealer. Dealer sent it to BRP about 3 weeks ago, and I have no heard back yet. First oil change at dealer, so they used BRP oil.
