• 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.

    Seat Wear showing! Any comments about Seat Replacement and expected life?

    I noticed the left side of my seat (2017 F3-L) is starting to crack and rip on the edge. I keep my spyder covered overnight and during the winter. Is this normal wear to expect? I know there are seat discussions often here, and if I need to replace, I would like something that is close to plug...

    Will car ramps be okay to work under a Spyder

    Hi All: I am thinking of adding underneath lighting, and what I see is I need to get under the bike to install the light strips. Would car ramps be safe and provide sufficient room to install underneath lighting? Thanks in advance, Jim

    Are Can Am OEM Covers worth it vs After-Market Covers?

    Hi all. I have a 2017 F3-Limited and I need a new cover. I seem to get about 2 to 3 years out of the after-market covers that cost about $70 US dollars. I see Can Am sells a cover for $299 that looks like it fits snuggly. Since this is over triple the cost, is it worth it based on any...

    Review: Lamonster Back Rest for the F3-Limited

    I had this for one year now and I gave it plenty of time so I could provide honest feedback. Installation was simple and painless; Removing the backrest is simple, quick, and painless; I did not like the feel when I first installed it - I was always conscious of it; I now really like it and...

    Rear ended on the way to OC bike fest

    That really stinks, glad to hear you are okay. I was there in OC at bikefest looking for any Sypders in the lot, virtually none. Where did this happen at if I may ask? I am heading back to PA. tonight. The main strip last night was like a scene from mad max with all the bikes zipping around.

    DESS - what does it do exactly

    I saw a couple of posts about DESS and did some searching to see exactly what it is and does. Is it a security control on the Spyder that links the key with starter? I saw a few posts of people saying a failure causes the bike to be disabled. Is this common? I see people who disabled DESS...

    Anyone running or tried BUDS on MacBook (Pro)?

    Just as a warning - if you have a newer MAC with an M1/M2 chip Windows will not run as a guest operating system - parallels/vm fusion. I am not surer about dual-boat, but I would expect it will not work. Older MAC used an Intel chip - the M series use AMD, different instruction set. Jim

    Front Sprocket Correction at Dealership

    I have the utmost confidence in these guys, they fixed a couple of things another dealer could not. The first replacement was last year prior to the announced recall - several weeks before (red dust and ready to fail). It was replaced with the old faulty model - for yearly service since this...

    Front Sprocket Correction at Dealership

    I do not remember reading this, so if this was discussed prior I apologize for the duplication. My spyder went in for its yearly service - last year I had the sprocket replaced just prior to the recall. The dealer told me the replacement doen last year would be redone and replaced this...
