• 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.

    How much work is involved in replacing the brake switch?

    Is it sticking on? Can you shut it off by applying up pressure with your toe? If so, have you tried putting a tighter return spring on the arm?

    What's the correct name/part # for these F3-S Mirror In-fill Panels?

    Hey that's all that matters is you like it, if someone else don't, tell them to take a hike!! (y)

    F3 Base - Rear shock bottoms out (stationary) with my passenger onboard. I'm shock illiterate, what do I need in a shock?

    Well, first thing is your bike should not be bottoming out! If it is there's a good chance your air bag needs air, it may have a leak somewhere. It may be as simple as finding and fixing your leak! No where on your post or your avatar do you tell us what year of a F3 your riding, so maybe some...

    On a Trail Rating System, I believe a Canyon Redrock can travel Level 2 Routes

    I can't wait to see how the belt drives are going to hold up to this environment!! Go for it and carry a sat phone!!

    I bit the bullet and upgraded my 2023 Spyder RTL front suspension... Color me happy!

    One word of advice, and I see this a lot in snowmobiling. Just because you feel more comfortable behind the wheel with all these new add on's, don't think that you're some autocross champion at a race! Ride your ride, but don't take it to the point where you are risking someone else in this...

    Water depth for fording a river for Can Am Spyder Canyon

    Well, no matter what they say, common sense has to be in there somewhere! If you have big rocks and boulders under there it's not a four-wheel drive! If it a hard gravel bottom and not going over your tires you may be OK, but it's your ride and remember your life jacket!! 🙃

    Anyone know what is in the Air Damper "Kit"?

    Absolutely, until you put the soap and water to it, I would not pull the trigger yet!! It could be anything line, fitting, or bag that would be the worst case out of all of the things, but until the test you don't know! If it's line or fittings you can get that stuff at any auto supply that has...

    Educate me on the reliability of the Rykers

    If it's built by man, it will fail and break down sooner or later! It comes with a warranty and hopefully the design failures will rear their ugly heads before it runs out! You said you are a DYI type of person and trust me you are not going to find anything in the world that will last forever...

    Anyone know what is in the Air Damper "Kit"?

    Like Snowbelt said, and I am going to come right out and ask. Where is your leak? Did you put the soap to it to find the problem?

    Symbols wore off my paddle shifters - any way to fix?

    Well, if you REALLY want to replace the symbols on the paddle shifter, I suggest taking a Dremel tool and engraving your + & - on the paddle, then take some paint and put some in the groove you made, then wipe the extra off the paddle! When it wears out again all you have to do is prep the site...

    Any problem transporting a Spyder RT (2015) on Flatbed without wheel chocks.

    All you can do is insure your stuff and hope it doesn't happen to you! You can lock stuff up to the gills; if they want it, they will take it!! It's too bad people buy stolen stuff, if there wasn't a market then they wouldn't be out there stealing stuff. Locks cut easy with a cut off wheel...

    Has anyone used front wheel 'roll into' chocks on your trailer?

    I think it's the easiest way to load and secure your bike! I built my own chocks for my trailer.

    2013 RT-S Blade Nut Came Off the Fan Motor!

    Sounds like you dodged a bullet! Isn't that air box delete just the best thing? It gives you SOOOO much more room under the hood of your bike! It took me a little time to get use to the extra intake noise. Happy trails!!

    2015 F3S Oil Pump Failure, replaced, engine still ticking - any ideas on what component/s might have been damaged?

    I had a Yamaha four-wheeler burn a cam shaft one time. The shop just opened the engine up, threw in a new cam, and shot it out the door! I took it home and was working in the dooryard picking up grass and leaves, didn't go more than a mile total, back and forth in the yard, not ripping it, just...

    One year on the oil & filters, but only 900 miles - is it OK to change just the oil?

    Like I said!!! Ride more worry less!! Stop over thinking things and do whatever makes you sleep at night. I would and do go more than the SUGGESTED 3500 miles on my 998, because I do use what I call a good synthetic oil! Why throw it out if it's good? That's just a waste of money and product...
