• 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.

    Belt Tension

    I recently purchased a new 2017 f3 Limited and will be installing Doc Humphries Belt tensioner this weekend. I have read several times that the belt tension should be set at 140 - 145. Is this applicable to all Spyders ? Did BRP come out with an update to use this setting ? thanks johnv

    vibration at speed

    I have a 2017 F3 Limited and notice all is well up to 70 mph, but when I am in the 75 to 80 range and back off the throttle I get a pronounced vibration. Does this sound like an issue that would be resolved with a belt tensioner and if so what is the recommended one to buy ? thanks johnv
