• 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.

Who Out There Has Gotten The Replacement Sprocket?

loctite info

I wish that BRP would publish which type of loctite is being used, also other details such if an activator is being used (and which type).

I looked at the specs for both LOCTITE 603 and LOCTITE 609. Both show a cure time of at least 6 hours to achieve a 100% full strength on steel.

The gap between the two surfaces also make a difference for curing time.

Also the air temperature (in the shop and parts involved) can effect the cure time. Ideal temperature is above 40 degrees.

The cure time can be shortened by using Activator SF 7649 or Activator SF 7471.

So if a dealer is allowing the Spyder to be used in less than 6 hours they might be using an activator.
 
Haven't even gotten my new-to-me 2017 RTL from the previous owner yet but BRP was very quick to reply to my email confirming that the recall hadn't been done and then sending me their records and flagging the recall. They provided a list of nearby dealers and I was able to get it booked in for April 20.

The previous owner had it inspected last year by a service shop that specializes in BRP products and they said it was fine -- and its only got 25800km (16000mi) on it so it should hang together for me for a month -- especially if the cold weather hangs on.

YMMV
