• 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.

    Anyone tried Carpuride W702 S Pro?

    I used a Garmin Zumo XT when I first got my 2024 Spyder RT Sea2Sky. It worked fine using the USB port for power in the glove box. Now that CAN-AM got Apple CarPlay to work I've been using it with my Apple iPhone, which requires the use for the USB port in the glove box.

    Random thought for the day

    I did find a Midgard Serpent knot online that is similar, but that knot appears to be one continuous line? The Celtic Knot I added is also sometimes called a Trinity Knot, and there are actually two separate pieces to the knot. The three pointed lobes are all part of one continuous line. And...

    As jcthorne mentioned above, in the FAQ section one of the questions is: BRP GO! go was replaced by Apple CarPlay for the 10.25" displays on the 3-wheelers. The BRP GO! information is here: https://can-am.brp.com/on-road/us/en/discover-can-am/connectivity/brp-go.html

    So eventually they will have to go to court and pay some fines, might even have to pay restitution... Oh, and the cost of repairing their vehicles, of course. 🤣
