    I totally agree with Jesster. Some places we frequent have a designated area for bikes so we park there, if enough room. I normally use a little common sense and park where its best for me and other...

    Like many others, we usually leave the helmets on the seats or handle bars. Never had a problem in 50+ years of riding. However, with that said, sometimes, depending on where we are, I'll use a thin...

    I agree with BajaRon. From the first time I saw an F3 I was in love. Low-slung, feet-forward, basically it just looks cool. Recently I sat on an RT in the showroom and loved the comfort, but I rode...

    Add me to the growing list. For me it was switching from my summer half helmet to my cool weather 3/4 helmet. Half helmet has a visor attached, 3/4 helmet has a 3 snap face shield. Just like all of...

    That's what I'm running on my '15 F3T. I go with 20 lbs PSI. I could be wrong but it seems to me the ride is a little stiffer than the original tire but its not a big deal. I haven't noticed a...

    Yeah, you can do that. I'm also 6'2", position #5, and I have room to do just that (not with the highway pegs, obviously, although I can rest my feet on top of them if I choose to).

    I had highway pegs on my 2-wheeler and loved them, so when I purchased the Spyder I thought it would be a good idea. Not so much. My Spyder came with pegs, so when I swapped out for the Ultimate FB's...

    I know I'm late to the game here. I also installed the Ultimate FB's and love them. I'll mention one advantage to them I haven't read yet. When I'm riding for an extended time I can actually stand up...

    Hello Again Pete: Actually I keep my phone with me but the app stays "on" and continues to show my air pressure, even when the reading is 2 days old! Maybe I'm doing something wrong but it seems my...

    I pretty much agree with all the posts. I bought the FOBO strictly for peace of mind, but I rarely have to add air. To be honest, its also a cool thing to show off to friends.

    I did find I had to...

    I went directly to the BRP Can Am site and downloaded one to my computer for free. There's also a lot of other info on this site.

    Wow, I didn't realize there was such a difference of opinion on this! In 50 yrs of riding 2 wheels I used the kill switch 3 times. When I bought our Spyder, at the urging of a Can Am friend, I took...

    Welcome James; you've written the story of many Can Am riders. After 50 yrs on 2 wheels last year the legs and the wife convinced me it was time for 3 wheels. By talking with other riders at gas...

    I had the same situation when I bought my Spyder. For me the second key ran just over $200, and the procedure was the same. Our closest dealer is 20 miles away, so: buy the blank key (40 mi), take it...

    My Can Am dealer said they wouldn't work on my F3 so I never pursued the subject.

    Last year I took advice from another forum thread and purchased some after-market end-bar mirrors from Amazon...

    And don't forget, the stated width of the trailer often doesn't factor in the wheel wells creating a bottleneck in the middle of the trailer. You may be able to back onto the trailer but then most of...

    I agree with Peteoz, I'm pretty sure there's a difference in the mounts for boards and pegs, make sure whatever you buy will fit your F3. BTW, that's a very good price for boards Haze.

    I bit the...

    Bought the Spyder last spring. One of my Spyder friends told me about how much "power" it has, so after a couple short rides, at a back road stop sign, I decided to see if he was right. My V-star...

    Many, many thanks to all my new Ryder friends in this forum. Yesterday, in PA, it was mid-50's and sun, so I broke baby out of her covers, pulled the tender, and we made an ice cream run. Before hand...

    I bought the bike last spring. State inspection for PA was in the fall and it took a new tire so I read the forums and decided on a General Altimax 43 (my garage did the work) at 20 psi.. I could...

    Thanks Pete. I found another forum thread with some info on this, I plan to check my bike out soon. In the other thread some folks say the bladder loses air every few days, some say no problem at...

    I checked YouTube for instructions with no luck. Is there access under either seat? Also, what's a "good" pressure for 2 up?

    We have a 2016 F3. I followed the advice of the forum and replaced the rear with a General Altimax at 20 psi. Riding 1-up no problems but riding 2-up (we're not skinny kids) the bike tends to bottom...

    Us too. I rode 2-wheels for over 50 years. Last year I realized 3 things were affecting my rides: hips, knees, and wife. She pretty much stopped riding with me and I understand why. So the decision...
