• 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.

    Brand new Spyder owner

    Well we did it! After many questions and answers from the good folks here my wife and I decided to take the Can Am class last weekend. It was AWESOME! Today, after much negotiation, we are the proud owners of a brand new 2018 F3S!! So the adventure begins.....

    Question about "u fit" system

    I wonder where the F3s in the class are set up? Do they all come set in the same place from the factory? We just took the Can-Am rider education class over the weekend and LOVED the way the F3 in the class rode. I can't see them altering the way the the bike came from the factory just for the...

    Question about "u fit" system

    Thanks for the info so far folks. Are the rods included in the price of the bike? I would think the dealer would get the necessary rods to set up the bike and not charge extra since it's a brand new purchase?

    Question about "u fit" system

    Hi folks, Going shopping for a new F3 and had a question about the "u fit" system. The left side peg looks easy enough to move but, if I'm correct when the right side peg/pedal is moved the brake rod will have to be changed to a different length? Are these different lengths of rod included with...

    Rider education class complete, now its time to buy (used)

    Thanks for the info so far folks. It was the driving position on the RT that made the decision, not the passenger's seat. Most of the time we would be switching out (one week for me and one week for my wife) and on the weekends we'd be riding two-up. The driving position on the F3 was just SOOOO...

    Rider education class complete, now its time to buy (used)

    Hi all, So a while ago I posted about our desire to switch to three wheels. We took the Can-Am rider course this weekend and it was awesome! The wife and I both passed and learned a bunch, now we're excited to take the next step and go shopping. Before the course we were sure we wanted the RT...

    Rider Education

    When is your class? I'm fortunate in that there's only 3 people signed up so far for ours. I'm really hoping to get some experience on both the "F" and "RT" series if they're there, looking to purchase a used one soon and the experience we get in the class will make or break the decision.

    That's great! My wife and I are signed up early September down here in Georgia. Let us know how it goes!

    How to start the journey

    Thanks again everyone! Looks like the plan is going to be to take the course in a couple of weeks and get the first on-Spyder experience and evaluate things from there. Really no way to even test drive one before then (for me anyway). We'll see what happens after that.

    How to start the journey

    Thanks again folks for the info so far. What I'm learning is the large difference is seating position between the F and RT models, is this correct? Is there a comparison chart somewhere that breaks all this down by year and feature? Had a lengthy discussion with the wife last night and I'm...

    How to start the journey

    You're absolutely right, the two wheelers were an expensive mistake (although a great deal was had by getting two at once, and even better for paying cash). It will take patience to unload and I'm sure I'll end up taking a loss.

    How to start the journey

    Interesting about the September time-frame. Our class is September 8-9 so we wouldn't be shopping till then. Where did you hear about the cheaper version? My wife is a very special woman, she really doesn't want to ride alone and would rather get rid of her two-wheeler and share the Spyder...

    How to start the journey

    Thanks for all the replies so far folks. Not knowing a whole lot about these I'm sure I'll have lots of questions along the way. I'm assuming all Spyders are designed for two riders, its just a matter of comfort. Is this correct? Finances are going to dictate us looking to keep the purchase...

    How to start the journey

    Thanks for the replies so far folks. Is there any reason the newer engine is preferred over the old? Does the old have reliability concerns? Financially speaking it will probably come down to an older model is the reason I'm asking.

    How to start the journey

    Good morning all, First post on the forum and I'm looking for some advice on how to begin my journey into the world of the Spyder. A little background to start, my wife has always ridden motorcycles and, after getting rid of hers prior to our meeting 7 years ago, she's decided she wants to ride...
