• 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.

    Is this Krikit Belt Tension still too tight?

    Also found some information that the pulley is matched to the ECM and if you try to change the gearing by swapping belt and pulleys, you confuse the ECM and nothing works right. ECM could possibly be changed for the different gearing, but that is not for certain.

    Is this Krikit Belt Tension still too tight?

    They are not all the same. Beginning in 2019 the F3-S came standard with the 79 tooth rear pulley. The F3-S Special Series came with the 89 tooth rear pulley. On other models the North American model had the 89 tooth while the models for sale in most other regions had the 79 tooth. Too many...

    Is this Krikit Belt Tension still too tight?

    Looked up several of the models belt numbers and found this. The 2025 F3-S belt part number is 705502157 The RT S2S Special Edition belt part number is 705501304 The Red Rock Canyon belt part number is 705501304 - same as the RT S2S Went back and looked up the F3 Limited to see if the F3's...

    Is this Krikit Belt Tension still too tight?

    I still don't see anything here like what the guy who did a U-Tube Video was talking about. Most all the belt settings here fall into the F3 range that is listed in the manual. The guy who did the video was talking about using the harmonic tester to determine the belt tension and he said there...

    Just found these RPM levels for the 1330

    All that could be true, but you have to run whatever speed the road conditions allow. I have about a mile and a half of dirt road to get to the highway from my house. I never shift up from 4th gear on the dirt road. It is not a real bad road. It has had crushed limerock dumped on it over the...

    Just found these RPM levels for the 1330

    I would surprised if the fuel economy was better in a lower gear. When I lived on the island of Taiwan the speed limit was 60 klicks outside of town and 35 klicks in town. There wasn't much road outside of town. Had to keep dropping it to 35 klicks passing through all the small towns and...

    Just found these RPM levels for the 1330

    All this higher RPMs lower gears must be rough on the miles per gallon, but most of us did not buy a Spyder or Ryker for the fuel economy. I get into 6th gear on the 55 MPH secondary roads. Most time run 60 on them. You can usually get away with 5 over the limit, except in school zones. Will...

    iPod plug in trunk missing retaining nut - any ideas on where to find one?

    I'm sure that if the last post was in January, then it must be fixed by now. Just for future reference, JB Weld will fix anything! It does adhere to hard plastics, but not soft or flexible plastic/rubber. Best two part epoxy I have ever used. It can be drilled, threaded, ground down, and most...

    Is anyone going to Daytona BikeTuFest?

    It is supposed to be in Daytona, but traffic all the way from Jacksonville to Cocoa Beach will be moving 15 MPH and stacked a mile deep at every stop light and super slab access. Motel and Hotels will be double and triple for the week. Thousands of bikers riding a brand new Harleys with 200...

    No bright headlights, dims work fine - any ideas?

    Switch maybe or broken wire on the bright side of the switch wiring. If brights don't get switched on it affects both lights.

    Is this Krikit Belt Tension still too tight?

    I rode Harleys and worked on them for over 30 years. Built several of them from the ground up from older Carbed models (1990s to 2001s). Belt tension on Harley belts measured with a tool to depress the belt between the pulleys with 10 pounds of force and then measure the belt deflection. Still...

    Just found these RPM levels for the 1330

    Can't do that... at 4,000 RPMs in 5th and 6th, I would get a lot of speeding tickets. Most of the secondary roads are marked for too low of a speed limit for Sammy Hagar to drive on.

    Just wanted to share the unbridled joy and ease of riding the Spyder!

    I came off 30 years riding a Harley trike. No problem adapting to the steering and cornering of the Spyder, but it took me 1,000 miles to stop looking for the clutch and front brake levers. Really the lever habit went back to about 1960. Took that long to remember to put it in 5th gear when I...
