• 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.

What battery should I get for a 2021 F3 Ltd?

Spyder Battery

:chat:...You can get a good battery for your Spyder at NAPA or Batteries Plus. If You want an OEM type check out online battery dealers.

Your Spyder and your money.

Good Luck on Your Mission.

Stay Healthy. ....:thumbup:
 
There is no reason why a battery should fail if only a year old. Has the battery been on a tender when not in use? If not you should invest in one. I have a 2017 that I keep on a tender when not riding and the battery was still good when I changed it out this summer. I only changed mine because it was 5 years old and not because I was having any problems. Better safe than sorry.

:agree: Must be something causing this or a Bad Battery from the Get Go.....Bill
 
Won’t take a charge dead?:dontknow:Only Year old not directly warranty item acceptable but dealer may find way **may** aside from you just leaving lights on constantly, or something like that batter would drain but not DIE:popcorn: replacement OEM YUASA Or Motobatt from LaMonster hopefully either lil easier to find in stock.

I just changed out a friends' battery in her 2022 F3L that she bought new back in July. I thought she was crazy telling me it kept going dead. I was amazed to find that instead of a Yuasa battery, her Spyder came with a Haijiu brand battery. So it either came from the factory like this, or the dealer swapped out a Yuasa. She now has the Motobatt from Lamonster.

I did see a post “somewhere”, from a reliable source, that said that BRP were having trouble sourcing Yuasa batteries and were using Haiju (or some similar name) as a substitute, Jetfixer. Mind you, my Yuasa battery failed within 12 months on my new ‘16 F3-L anyway;) You just never know.

Just last week I paid $129 for a battery for my 2015 F3 at Battery Source. It's the second time I replaced the battery in 6 years. I am guilty of not using a battery charger when not in use, but it's plugged in now. Gonna use it more often. Now about that front pulley......
 
Just came across another Haijiu battery in a 2022 F3 yesterday. I guess Yuasa still has some supply issues.
 
Update

Bike is 1 year old and the battery is dead what battery do you recommend?

After replacing the battery and having the same problem I towed my bike to the dealer and they told me Can Am shut my bike down because there was an update due on the computer that I had not brought it in for. No warning or anything just shut down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WTH?????

So Can-Am remotely shut your bike down? RUN from this dealer. He would make a BIG Christmas turkey proud he's so full of it. BS, BS, BS etc.

And just how would they do that?

For a Tesla I could believe the "shut it down" story but for a Spyder, not bloody likely.
