    Since I commute on my Spyder and often spend a portion of my commute in stop and go traffic, I wear a vest once temps get 80F and above. It's a trade-off between comfort and protection in my case. In...

    While I don't trailer my Spyder, I bought a Geza Gear cover for my F3 Limited. I've bought their covers for all of my bikes over the past 20 years or so and I've been happy with them. They are pricey...

    I keep a shop towel in my F3 Limited's "glovebox" specifically for gas pumps in case they don't have paper towels. I always wrap the nozzle in something as I remove it to keep from splashing residual...

    I bought similar ones off Amazon to complement my Big Blue lift. I haven’t used them yet though, they’re still in the box.

    I use the a generic key ring attached to the OEM plastic sheath. I don’t like having a key ring attached to the key itself while riding because I don’t like the added weight pulling on the key over...

    IMHO volume and quality is subjective and up to each individual. Regarding volume, I've found setting fade to 50% or more to the front makes a noticeable difference, not to mention setting the auto...

    I used to use my iPhone on my previous 2-wheeled motorcycles but on the Can-Am I was looking for a cleaner option. I didn’t want to go with a phone mount on bars or anything so I decided to use the...

    Also using a Zumo XT with power wired via the accessory line. As others have said, if you have an XT, I feel it’s hard to justify an upgrade to the XT2 but if you don’t have a Garmin at all then the...

    Bi-weekly bump. Mileage has increased to a little over 5000 miles. Again, mileage will increase a bit over time since I still use this for occasional commuting.

    If an electric Spyder was available when I bought my F3 Limited I would have bought it instead…probably. Just before switching to 3 wheels, one of my bikes was an Energica Ribelle. Awesome ride. I...

    I’m about 90% sure the F3-S doesn’t come with heated grips standard although I’m sure the dealer can install the factory version. That being said, a set of aftermarket heated grips might be better...

    At my wife’s request I took off the BRP armrests I installed shortly after buying my trike and put the original grab rails back on. At least she’ll get the heated rails back now that the weather’s...

    I thought the older 998cc engines did require periodic valve adjustments and only the newer 1330cc motors use hydraulic valve adjusters. I could very well be wrong though...just what I thought I...

    Like others have said, at your current budget you're probably looking at a used Ryker instead of a Spyder. I just made the switch myself a little over a month ago. I came from an R1200RT-LC and...
