• 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.

    Random thought for the day

    Regarding the phone listening and then getting ads: a couple of years ago when my Dad was dying, I started getting ads for cremation services. Shameful in my opinion.

    There really are no alternatives to the Can Am reverse trikes

    I was also thinking that there might be patent issues involved. I would think the patents for VSS would be expiring soon. Then maybe we'll see some competing machines come into the market?

    Happy Birthday

    Today is my birthday! I'm just going to be hanging around the house today doing some spring yard work, do a couple errands, and then going out for a steak dinner tonight with my family. I might take the Spyder out for one of the errands.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    On a ride last week, one of my friends noticed that one of my rear brake lights was out. So I replace both light bulbs today.

    Do I have correct windshield hardware F3S? Any Ideas on what to do now?

    That is the same hardware as I had on mine. There was no additional cap. I think it's meant to breakaway if you had an accident and hit the windshield.

    When is the Price of gas going to stop rising?

    “Gas prices will increase until nobody needs gas anymore.”

    Yes it’s the age old tire question… What's currently the best replacement?

    I'm in Connecticut as well. I bring my Spider's wheels to Town Fair and they can mount them but not balance them. I balance them myself at home.

    Is the fuel gauge accurate on an F3?

    There is probably some variation bike to bike. But my experience is that the fuel gauge is somewhat conservative and seems to have more than a gallon or two left when it indicates empty.

    The 'Full Synthetic' Myth Exposed

    I didn't know this, but I'm glad to have been using Mobil 1 in my Spyder and my GMC Yukon all these years.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Here's what the plugs looked like at 57,000 miles. The central electrodes look great, there is some wear of the ground side electrodes. I wasn't having any issues but they were long past the recommended change interval. Based on previous spark plug discussions here, I think I made the right...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Replaced the spark plugs on my 2020 F3S. Fun job. Lot's of stuff to take apart to get to them. All back together with only 3 extra screws!

    Looking for new Comms - what do you use?

    I had the UClear Motion Infinity sets for snowmobiling and then put them on our Spyder helmets for the summer. They worked well but in time had problems with their flimsy connectors and the rubber parts eventually disintegrated. Most of my friends had Sena's so I purchased a set of Sena 50S...

    Innovv K6 install - Need some hints for K6 camera mounting. Anyone have any suggestions, or have used the Go Pro style mount?

    Try flipping the Innov mount rectangular metal block over. The hole for the pivot is not centered. If it's upside down you won't have the full range of motion. Ask me how I know this...
