• 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.

    Old Problem...new question

    With apologies to the old timers here who are sick of basic questions, I need to know the following: Can you post an iPhone video to the site and, if so, how do you go about it? Are there step-by-step instructions anywhere? Thanks! :dontknow:

    BRP's Saddlebag Priority System?

    I ordered my cross-country bags on Nov 25th, 2014. They still aren't in. However, while in Phoenix, I stopped by a local dealer and they had 2 sets in inventory!!! WTF? So, I had them install the bags so I could use them on the trip back to Indiana (I had fastened a couple of backpacks to...

    F3 Vibration "Work-Around"

    This is one of two threads I'll be writing related to my recent trip from Indiana to Arizona and back (3,565 miles) on my F3S. This thread relates to how I dealt with the 4K rpm vibrations. For those who don't know it yet, the F3 can turn into a vibrator anywhere between 60-80 mph in 5th or...

    Cross Country Saddlebag delay

    Pauly I'm sincerely happy for you getting your bags...happy for everyone who has, but you didn't need to tell me you ordered them at the end of Feb and picked them up Saturday........that is way too long for your to have had to wait, but I ordered mine in November '14 and picked up tie-downs for...

    Cross Country Saddlebag delay

    Took your advice Got some tie-downs today and reconfigured the load. I've never had a bungie break in over 50 years of riding, but I don't want the 51st year to be the 'gotcha'. Thanks again for the advice.

    For those of you considering driver floorboards...

    A little experimenting with your foot (as I'm sure most of us have discovered) makes buying the $500 floorboards unnecessary. If you just leave the front of your foot on the peg and pivot your ankle, you can rest your heel on the peg support bar and have a level, flat support. Wouldn't want...

    Cross Country Saddlebag delay

    Profoundly disappointed! I'll be leaving for Arizona (4,000 mile round trip) on Weds without saddlebags. All attempts at finding "throw-over" bags as substitutes were not successful. I have compromised by getting two 20-liter backpacks and I'm using bungie cords to attach them to the grab...

    FINALLY! Received the last of my accessories, the saddlebags...only took 3 months!

    Good to hear!!! You're the 2nd person to post having saddlebags. Gives me faith in the future. Mine were ordered in November 2014! Not a hint that they are on the way other than you guys posting here. Maybe soon :pray: I'm going on a cross-country trip in 16 days...hope I have my...

    F3/F3S - Short Cover

    Spyder Sisters Now, this is in no way a "cover" for the F3, but it should work great for over nights at the motel, etc. Just ordered a "sun shade seat cover" from spydersisters.com They say, "one size fits all spiders".) Since the F3 is close enough in size to the RS and ST, I imagine it'll...

    Windscreen issues

    re: Madstad Mine is being delivered tomorrow. I'll have it on Friday. Will post pics this weekend. "Fugly" (see above) is in the eye of the beholder (the Blue Ridge brackets are not exactly works of art) and Madstad would not have the large following they have if their product didn't work...

    F3S handling vs RT LTD SE5

    20 PSI? Your tire pressure caught my attention. When I had a 2012 RT, I never put more than 17 PSI in the front (run my F3 right at 15 PSI). Your handling problems may be partially attributed to this...factory recommends 15 PSI. I'm just saying.....:dontknow:

    Spyder F3/F3S - BlueRidge Windscreen pic

    Blue Ridge Critique I'm generally pretty positive about all things Spyder, but not the Blue Ridge and for a very specific reason: it blasts wind at you from the neck up...and I mean to the extent that on a long distance ride, this could be VERY tiring. (I have about 1,100 miles on it now.)...

    F3-S Suede Seat Cleaning and Care

    Okay - I'm going with "dappled" Best seat I've ever been on (had over a dozen m/c over the years) so if it is "dappled," so be it. It's not ugly, just "different." :sour: Anyway, I've got bigger issues: "Where the @%#$&:banghead:* are my saddlebags!"

    F3-S Suede Seat Cleaning and Care

    Where in the Owner's Manual? Couldn't find any reference to cleaning the seat in the manual. Anybody know where this might be? I also have the "blotches" on the seat...not seriously ugly but not what they should be.

    Saddlebag back orders

    Someone Actually Received the Cross-Country Bags? This is exciting news if I'm reading the thread correctly, but the latest thing my dealer can tell me is that the BRP website says "No Shipping Date Available" or something like that. BTW, I not only ordered the bags but I actually paid for...

    Madstad

    Also ordered mine yesterday Hopefully will have it next week. Will post a review comparing it to the Blue Ridge after I get some miles on the Madstad (have had the Blue Ridge for 800 miles now.) If all of what they say about the Madstad is true, this will be a major improvement. I have a...
