• 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.

    2016 Spyder F3-T - is this a Battery showing signs of age/decay? Or is it not charging? If so, why?

    I use these on every vehicle and piece of equipment I own. https://www.northerntool.com/products/batteryminder-battery-charger-trickle-charger-desulfator-12-volt-1-5-amp-model-1500-31654 I probably have 15 or 20 of them. I routinely get 10+ years out of a good quality AGM battery, and usually...

    Latest BRP Safety Bulletins for Shaft Replacement (2019-12) and Shaft & Sprocket Replacement (2019-13) Recalls - Jan 2025

    How the heck does a clutch plate get "bent" in an assembled clutch? Sounds like they had the clutch apart, got a plate jammed up in the basket, and just cranked down the pressure plate bolts anyway.

    Deer collision - safer on a Spyder? Thoughts? Or first-hand accounts?

    That's some incredible footage. Glad you and your Spyder are okay.

    Deer collision - safer on a Spyder? Thoughts? Or first-hand accounts?

    I suspect there's a slight safety advantage over a bike, though a bike's maneuverability may help to avoid some strikes in the first place.

    Do you think there's an F3 update coming for 2026?

    They call my 2015 CanAm Red. Looks more like orange to me.

    Sliding off floor lift (GAH!) - What do you do to keep your Spyder from sliding off the jack?

    I usually use my 2-post automotive lift to work under the Spyder. However, for a quick job I find a low-profile floor jack can be rolled under the central frame from the left rear, positioning the rubber pad under the center frame at the front. I then lift the front and if necessary, put...

    Random thought for the day

    I have some stuff from Hitachi, Ryobi, and others, but lately I've been buying Hercules from Harbor freight. So far, the quality seems very good, the batteries are all compatible, and the prices are decent.

    Has anyone removed/modified the Airbox on an F3 to improve intake airflow? Ideas?

    Thanks, Just thinking of the small filter area, as well as making servicing much easier in the future. I'll probably install a K&N filter at the least, and I may see if I can fabricate a duct to direct fresh air from outside the bodywork to the inlet. I does seem to suffer from a bit of heat...

    Has anyone removed/modified the Airbox on an F3 to improve intake airflow? Ideas?

    I did a search, but didn't see anything similar. Has anyone removed the huge airbox on the F3S and installed a duct and conical filter to increase filter area and get cooler air into the throttle body? I notice my IAT often runs 10 degrees hotter than ambient air, and getting that huge bulky...
