• 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.

    Spyder F3 brake pedal is too high - any ideas/recommendations? Anyone tried SE Performance Adjustable Brake Pedal Rod?

    Hi Howie. Yes, I can confirm that the SlingMods adjustable brake rod will lower the brake arm from the lowest position -- i.e. the height of the brake pedal will be lower than it was with the Position 1 brake rod. No concerns with quality, either. The instructions are quite good, and if...

    Have you experienced any Road rage incidents?

    As a young guy, I'd occasionally commute into Boston on a bicycle, in rush hour (Motocross mentality was helpful - while, of course, being aware of the difference in "bargaining power" between me and everyone else around me.) One day, someone made a point of trying to squeeze me into the...

    Have you experienced any Road rage incidents?

    This, for sure. I assume I'm invisible as soon as I leave the driveway....

    A different take on HD logo on stuff!

    I always wanted to get my hands on one of these, a Harley Davidson Black Widow, manufactured in Italy by Aermacchi.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Finished installing my Lamonster bar riser and GPS mount set-up, to which I attached a Pedal Commander from Slingmods. I also installed wide convex mirror add-ons from Slingmods. I only had time for a very short shakedown run before darkness fell. But my initial impressions are positive. 😛 -

    Apple Carplay - the good, the bad, and the really ugly

    I can't wait until computers work like toasters.

    Thought the wife was going to kill me - I bought a new Ryker

    Ha! Going by the title of your thread I was preparing to offer commiseration, or congratulations, or both. Maybe next Friday you should follow up with a full-size one. You know, now that you've gotten her used to the idea...

    After input on Handlebar risers... Anyone?

    This is what I was after, too. As you probably know, the Lamonster riser is supposed to raise the bars up 2 inches and back 1 3/4 inches. In my case (and yours, it sounds like) I was more interested in the "back" than the "up," so I used a Dremel tool to modify the guide hole in the...

    After input on Handlebar risers... Anyone?

    No blocking of mirrors for me, on F3-S. But there are quite a few factors (your model of Spyder and mirror setup, your height, the reach of your bars, your arm length, your handlebar tilt adjustment, etc.). So it's all going to depend. But I can say that for me, the mirrors have been nowhere...

    PLEASE UPLOAD, ATTACH, AND INSERT ALL PICTURES/IMAGES AS THUMBNAILS!

    I had the same issue as @Dansy yesterday - on both iPad and my Chromebook / Chrome browser. In Chrome I was finally able to "manually" resize the image (pixel height & pixel width) so that it was small enough to load, but I never saw the Insert Thumbnail option. Maybe the forum platform is...

    Random thought for the day

    Where we’ll all end up here someday. (Maybe not 'here' exactly.)

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Installed the Mono Seat Cowl on my 2024 F3-S: There was conflicting information (numerous different part numbers), so it was unclear if this would really fit on a '24, but I took a chance, figuring I could make it work one way or another. Not too bad in the end, and easy enough to swap to...

    Dealer says Car tires damage fenders - does this make sense???

    I read recently that Miguel de Cervantes, the author of Don Quixote, was a Spyder rider. Food for thought.... ;)

    How Long did BRP take to contact you after your Spyder purchase, if at all??

    I bought a 2024 from iMotorsports on Dec 3, 2024 (got the deal done in the very last hour of a Can-Am promotion period!) The bike was delivered the evening of Dec 17, and I got my official "Congratulations" and welcome email from BRP on Jan 9, 2025. So I guess I'm one of the special ones. :p
