• 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.

    Are the OEM XPS front tires really directional, on '25 S2S?

    I take a look at that picture of that tire, and it don't look like the same tread pattern that I see on my bike or the same pattern in post 16, looks different! Maybe I am looking at it wrong! Look at the pattern on the outside edges.

    Could this be the Starter Relay/Solenoid? Where is it located on a 2016 RT?

    You checked the connections on the battery are clean and tight, but did you check the other end of the cables? Make sure the frame connections clean and tight also! Have you had the battery LOAD tested? Just checking it with a meter will not tell you what it's doing under load, it may be falling...

    Does this Belt Tensioner Idler Stabilizer Roller look familiar? Are any parts (Rollers) interchangeable??

    I have the solution to the whole issue, take it off and you won't have to worry about it! That vibration dampener is there to take some of the vibration out of your ride! If you have ever taken a ride on an old Harley back in the day, then you know what VIBRATION really is, and we are getting...

    Am I being too cheap by Not changing the filters on a low milage oil change?

    I think he's going to tell you he goes by mileage not year! If you're using a GOOD oil, you can stretch it out, but if you're going to do a change, then do a change, with the filters! A full synthetic oil doesn't break down like the old stuff and the way we used to think is hard to break for us...

    Front wheel hop when braking - suspension arm bushes, or... ?? Any help?

    I have seen a bad tire put me almost into a death wobble at a certain speed. I was test riding a Spyder for a friend and got back to his place and asked him about it, he said yup, it does do it between 45-50 mph and then it goes away, so I just try not to hang at that speed very much! WOW...

    Ultimate Dealer GREED!

    I know when I was trying to sell a seat off my 2012 RT, the shipping was so high that I ended up giving it away to anyone who wanted to come and get it! They wanted more to ship than I was asking to sell it for! Then don't try to ship out of the states!!! o_O

    Do you get wet riding in the rain?

    I find it's the rain that laps over the top of the windshield and hit's you in the face, or at least for me anyway no matter how high I have the thing set!! And I have another vote for rain gear!! :cool:

    Fully Automatic Spyder!

    I don't know guy's that's really not that bad for what you get. Guys spend more than that to juice up their fuel maps to get more performance and yes there are folks on here with problems with their hands and arms that would benefit in having one, heck I would love to try one!!!

    I've been charged extra (over MSRP) for Panels - dealer says none are included! Is this correct?

    I guess the OP has fallen off the face of the world or got over the sticker shock of the color panels! 🙃 We will never know what the extra charge was for.

    Front wheel hop when braking - suspension arm bushes, or... ?? Any help?

    Was the road you ran first smooth or wash board? How are your front shocks when you push down on them? The reason I ask is that I find with these machines, you feel a lot of things in the road, different road surfaces, bumps and what not, so if your shocks are getting worn out and the damping is...

    Fully Automatic Spyder!

    That was interesting!! Sometimes Shawn surprises me when he goes off on people that don't hold the BRP line and use their parts but then likes things like that! I like his videos but wish he got into the nuts and bolts of his repairs more so you could see how he works threw some of his repairs...

    I understand that, but he was not very clear on what he was paying for! Extra covers or the stock covers!

    Anyone else had to Insure their Spyder as a 2-wheel motorcycle? Any success changing its designation to a 3-Wheeler?

    I could not think of a better machine to take the bike test on, if she wants to drive it have her go for it!!!

    I've been charged extra (over MSRP) for Panels - dealer says none are included! Is this correct?

    Got to ask, did your bike come with panels and you wanted different colors than you had, or are you saying they charged you for the panels you got?

    Anyone else had an Oil Leakage Issue like this? - UPDATE

    My thoughts also, if they didn't hit that spot with a bur grinder or coarse paper and CLEAN that spot it will not stick! I have used JB weld on things I didn't want to weld in the past, and it's ALWAYS my last resort to use it. Welding's always my first choice on things like this, but even then...

    Anyone else's Multi function switch not working like this?

    Thank you for getting back to us with the Gremlin in your hand!!

    Can anyone help identify this part?

    What were you unscrewing when it fell out? If I had my 2012, I would take the cover off and tell you where it goes, maybe. BRP doesn't like changing things up much, so I'd be willing to bet it would have the same bracket! If it is that bracket, and I think it is, then it may be attached to that...
