• 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.

    2017 F3S Swaybar install?

    I rented a couple of loading ramps and put them on the back of my Bronco. Then I just drove the spyder up the ramps until it was high enough. I had everything loosened up so it wasn't up for long. Did the switch, hand tightened everything then drove it back off. Easy peasy!

    1st 600 miles service

    The trike was just beginning to get broke in at 600-1000 miles. I wouldn't even think that there would be any stretching of the drive belt. You got robbed!nojoke

    oil change and dipstick shows full-cold?

    Mine is at the same level as yours. I wouldn't think that the time idling the engine would be so important but your case proves that it is. Thanks.

    GLAD I DIDN'T RIDE TO WORK YESTERDAY

    There was a possible tornado in our area. They're still checking out the damage.

    oil change and dipstick shows full-cold?

    When I did my change last fall I put in 5 quarts. That's what the owners manual has and that's the recommendation on this forum. I ran it until the fans ran twice and checked the oil. It was just below max and I left it that way. Six months later at my 3k checkup the dealer said it was low...

    Harbor Freight motorcycle lifts

    I had the motorcycle lift from HF. I used it to lift a Sportster and a Softail and found that it was very unstable. I sold it and would never use it for a spyder. JMHO

    Silly question about inspections

    :agree: I just had my spyder in for inspection and asked the tech at the dealer if they would mount and balance car tires. He said that he doesn't recommend car tires because they are not the same size as the Kenda tires used by BRP. He also said that by putting car tires on would possibly...

    RTS 3000 mile checkup and State inpection...

    I found the answer in #2 posting of this thread: http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?97556-RT-vibration-issue&highlight=newtons Seems that the owner's manual and service manual for my spyder are in error then. I had forgotten that there was a post with revised belt tension values.

    RTS 3000 mile checkup and State inpection...

    I'm not sure if they check the axle torque for the 3k checkup. They told me the belt tension is at 750n. I'm just wondering if it's the correct amount.

    RTS 3000 mile checkup and State inpection...

    I'm not sure what they did to get a low reading but I had just taken the bike to them in the late morning. It's possible that it did cool down enough but I would hope they would know enough to warm it up good. They said they were just finishing up at about 3:30 so maybe it did cool down before...

    RTS 3000 mile checkup and State inpection...

    I just had my spyder in for state inspection and since the mileage was at 2800 I had the 3k checkup done too. I had changed the oil last fall because the weather wouldn't cooperate for me to get it to the dealer. I did the oil change with 5 quarts of oil I got from the dealer and BajaRon's...
