• 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.

    My F3S tire is showing wear after only 2000 miles.

    My dealer will mount car tires, provided you purchase them independently

    Review: Elka Stage 2's on 2015 F3 S

    I installed BajaRon/JRi shocks in just the front. The setup was simple and the ride and handling is suburb.

    Time for a Trip to the PA Grand Canyon

    Saturday we rode from the Black Forest to Bloomsburg, PA. I got to meet a fellow Spyder Lover who purchased the Ryker Shocks I had listed for sale. We visited Bill's Old Bike Barn, which is great. While there are certainly old motorcycles, there are lots of other cool old things too. Carousel...

    Time for a Trip to the PA Grand Canyon

    Thursday's loop was wonderful twisty roads. We picked up Wykoff Run Rd in Wayside off of Rt 120 and ran to Quehanna Highway and on to Rt 879. Thirty miles of twisty mountain roads thru the Sproul State Forest and minimal traffic. This will be on the list of rides worth repeating. The photos...

    Time for a Trip to the PA Grand Canyon

    Hubby, on a 2023 Triumph Tiger GT Pro, and I on my 2017 F3-T are heading for the PA Grand Canyon area for a week. We've done this twice before on different bikes, but always find new places to explore and places to eat. Our tentative itinerary this year is: Day 1: Ride from home (Erie County...

    Has anyone gone from a Ryker to a Spyder then back to a Ryker?

    I took your first two steps, Ryker 900 to F3-T, and I'm happy with that arrangement, for now. While I do run around locally with it, there are times I miss the spunky Little Ryker. I've said to my husband, more than once, if we had the space (we don't), I'd have both. So no, you're not crazy.

    Can a Spyder replace a motorcycle?

    If you are in a State that offers a Three-wheel Safety Course, take it. Our State offers it for free and provides a Ryker to take it on. I already had my motorcycle endorsement, but took the class after giving up 2 wheels for health/safety reasons. That class allowed me to experience 3 wheels...

    Comparing how we ride our Spyders - what does your trip meter say??

    Nope. I ride "short" (60-100 miles) most dry days during the riding season, with longer multi-day trips interspersed throughout. Trip A is always the mileage on the current tank of fuel and Trip B is always the miles since the last oil change. Your data is interesting, and I do keep track...

    Anybody see a measurable change in fuel mileage with larger diameter rear tire?

    I've been running Vredestein Quatrac 205/60R15 in the rear and 165/60R15 in the front for about 5000 miles this summer. I ride in the "ECO" setting, which has plenty of zoom for riding with my Hubby on a Triumph Tiger 900 GT Pro. I average between 39-40 mpg. Since I replaced the tires prior to...

    Is anyone else Running out of fuel like this?

    The gas gauges are notoriously inaccurate. I reset my trip odometer "A" each time I fill up and use that to decide when I need fuel. I know my range is around 230-240 miles, depending on the type of riding I'm doing. I've never run it out of gas, but I think I was very close at the 240 mark.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Yep. It turns out it is only about 50 miles from home. I had no idea! So, a quick 100 mile ride in perfect 75 F degree sunshine.
