• 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.

    Need to remove stripped nut on passenger handrail (F3-Limited) - any ideas?

    Update: Thanks all for the suggestions - I was able to get the (hex) screw out. I took it to the garage where my cars go, figuring the mechanic must deal with this routinely, and yes, he does. He hammered something into it and then used a socket to get it out - 10 minutes tops. The other thing...

    Need to remove stripped nut on passenger handrail (F3-Limited) - any ideas?

    I am installing passenger arm rests on my 2017 F3 Limited, the final nut of the right side back is stripped. It was stripped before I did anything. All other nuts came off without issue. I do not have access to any fancy tools - how do I remove the stripped bolt? Thanks in advance, Jim

    After Guidance/opinions on Passenger Arm Rests for F3-Limited?

    I am looking to add passenger arm rests for my 2017 F3 Limited; this will help both me and any passenger feel more comfortable going around corners where they might otherwise feel they will fly off. I do not ride two-up often, but I would like to start doing it more often. I see Lamonster has...

    Seat Wear showing! Any comments about Seat Replacement and expected life?

    I noticed the left side of my seat (2017 F3-L) is starting to crack and rip on the edge. I keep my spyder covered overnight and during the winter. Is this normal wear to expect? I know there are seat discussions often here, and if I need to replace, I would like something that is close to plug...

    Hi All: I am thinking of adding underneath lighting, and what I see is I need to get under the bike to install the light strips. Would car ramps be safe and provide sufficient room to install underneath lighting? Thanks in advance, Jim

    Are Can Am OEM Covers worth it vs After-Market Covers?

    Hi all. I have a 2017 F3-Limited and I need a new cover. I seem to get about 2 to 3 years out of the after-market covers that cost about $70 US dollars. I see Can Am sells a cover for $299 that looks like it fits snuggly. Since this is over triple the cost, is it worth it based on any...

    Rear ended on the way to OC bike fest

    That really stinks, glad to hear you are okay. I was there in OC at bikefest looking for any Sypders in the lot, virtually none. Where did this happen at if I may ask? I am heading back to PA. tonight. The main strip last night was like a scene from mad max with all the bikes zipping around.
