• 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.

    Anyone Ever Consider a Scooter?

    I have a 2014 Honda Forza (300cc) which I traded in for my F3-Limited. It was good but not practical for long distance or highway riding, the wind from trucks was difficult at times. I also had a nasty fall which I am hoping the Spyder will prevent. I really liked it but it was not wanted for...

    Winter Gear Review

    I live in the Northeast and was able to test my Sedici Pants and Alpinestars winter gloves. It was 30 degrees and I rode for over an hour without getting cold or minding the colder weather. The pants were outstanding and I was very happy with the gloves. It was great to hit the streets today...

    I think I got the top box lid error figured out.

    I was having he same issue since the day I bought my 2017 F3 Limited. I raised the clip a bit and BINGO no more open error. It was so annoying, I like looking at the trip 1 odometer and that darn orange warning was always there. I am so excited - thanks! Jim

    Tire Pressure and warming up

    I read in my manual the recommended from tire pressure is 14 PSI cold, and back is 26 PSI cold. How long does it take a tire to warm up and how much does that increase the pressure? How often should you check you tire pressure? Thanks, Jim

    sway bar

    I test drove spyders with and without sway bars - there was a world of difference between the two. I bought my spyder with sway bar and it is awesome. It should be standard equipment in my opinion. I believe the dealer installed a 3rd party swahy bar and not one from BRP.

    I have a 2017 F3 Limited and noticed that cruise control does not work at lower speeds (30 to 40 MHP) although the manual says it should work at 25 MPH and above. Anyone else experience this? Thanks, Jim

    Safety Gear

    I notice that Spyder riders do not wear all the safety gear a motor cycle rider would wear. I see helmets, but jackets, gloves, etc. Do you guys all wear safety gear? Jim

    Fog Lights on F3-Limited

    I bought an F3-Limited today, picking it up on Thursday - really excited. Can anyone share their thoughts on foglights on the F3-Limited? One of the machines had them installed and I was wondering about the utility of them. Could be an add-on in the future. Thanks, Jim
