• 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.

    Air pump problems

    Recheck with engine running, foot on brake, place it in gear, park brake off….no warnings on dash…..wait 30 seconds. Also check that actuator arm is attached to height sensor and rear suspension arm.

    18 F3L Shifting input

    Yes, normal. The transmission uses straight cut gears, so…..I believe you’re feeling the Engine/ Transmission adjusting to accomplish shifts “smoothly “. Input shaft and output shafts turning at different RPM’s ……ECM and TCM make very quick adjustments to accomplish a shift. I was startled too...

    Front Wheel Alignment

    Assuming the handlebars are deadnuts center…..the Spyder is crabbing down the road…….toe in needs to be 1” to 11/4 in toe in @75 inches front to rear of front wheel center.

    2017 F3L DTC P2135 + Limp Home Mode - any ideas on cause?

    By chance, did the Dealership give you the definition of P2135……I couldn’t find the code listed in a 2019 or 20 shop manual? It’s a powertrain code……ECM or TCM. A generic search shows the code as a throttle input code TAS sensor, (Throttle Actuator Sensor),possible the throttle input sensors...

    Monster Fuel Injection Stage 2 Warning

    I had them show up in the stock OEM ECU setup…….no dash lights…….just cleared them and thought of them as erroneous. I believe they may be generated by initial key on self test of all the modules communicating……maybe generated by key on, key off cycling…….not doing a complete boot up. I had...

    Monster Fuel Injection Stage 2 Warning

    Did you have any fault/ limp home indicator warning lights on dash? I too have the Monster Fuel Injection stage 1. I also have Buds and have seen the error codes displayed when I checked.

    TricLED Sequential LED Turn Signals & Running Lights - Anyone else having issues??

    I’ve performed it both ways…..initial installation with front tires removed and replacement led with fender off. I thought the fender removal was easier for me while working on the ground. The challenge is tucking the wire loom away from tire so as not rub on it. Don’t forget the dielectric...

    I just had to replace my right amber fender due to 3 LED's out… TricLED was kind enough to send a replacement lamp for $15. Only 1.5 years old & 8000 miles.

    New Spyders shipped missing components.

    Just watched The Smoaks on you tube….he goes into brief detail of BRP shipping Spyders to dealers missing “components “which will be shipped to dealers at a later date. I would imagine that’s the reason for delayed shipments………..be sure to thoroughly checking your new ride. Just saying……….
