• 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.

    Wilber shocks

    They make shocks for our F3's now so I wanted to know about their quality. i know most here like Elkas but there are mixed feelings about them, some say their customer service is hit or miss and the quality is too. I don't have a personal opinion because I have never used either brand. Just...

    When I can't trust my dealer . . .

    Yes, it is an air bag that is adjustable with a coil and shock, it is not an air shock. it sure can be confusing. I asked the dealer if he could fit it to the 2015 F3S and he said no way, your better off with a high quality shock and a coil that is made for your weight. So that is what I was...

    2015 F3S SE6 TOURING Spyder mods

    I agree but Did you add in the cost of your mounting bracket N140? If you did than, yes I agree that is a heck of an over charge. I got the Shad bags and brackets from ImotorSports and save some off retail, but someone else posted a better deal they received, I guess the moral of the story is...

    Miles to replace >>F3<< Rear tire?

    Just shy of 12,000 miles Replaced mine last month, just shy of 12k miles, was worn out in the center not to much on the sides. Checked the pressure normally and it was spot on so not sure why the middle worn out so much faster. Hope the new tire wares better.

    F3 Vibration

    Wow, never thought much about buying a first generation bike or car or boat for that matter. I bought it after a test ride because it didn't hurt my back as much as riding my Harley or my v-star 1300 did. That was my only thought, ride the F3 or stop riding all together. With that in mind, it...

    2015 F-3 Spyder Hard Saddle Bags

    The Shad bags are now available through BRP dealers, the brackets are already made to fit the F3 so no extra work is needed. I like mine aand they are 1/2 the price of the original F3 bags and 1/3 the price of Corbin. Hope you enjoy which ever bags you chose.

    Corbin: $2000 for defected saddlebags- Not Fair treatment

    This post has been up for a while, I am really surprised that people are sending their hard earn money to Corbin...
