    I have that exact windscreen (F4 Customs 21") on my 2016 F3L and it's far superior to the original. No extenders at the side, but I did get one with the Goldwing vent.
  2. Just replaced my Original Yuasa Battery with another after 7 years!

    I just replaced my original Yuasa battery with another Yuasa after 7 years with no leakage at all. I'm happy to use the same type of battery, 7 years is OK in my book. I looked into Lithium batteries...

    After this discussion I'm thinking of getting a FOBO with 4 sensors and putting one on the rear airbag of my F3L in addition to the 3 wheels. Only problem I can see is they have a pressure limit of...

    Well, in my case it runs my iPod OK. A typical USB interface should be able to supply 500mA or 0.5 amp. It should be capable of running a typical dashcam with no problems.

    As far as I can see on...

    Just guessing here, but shouldn't the new axle be supplied as part of the CanAm trailer hitch kit? After all, you're paying enough for it.

    Earlier models have to adjust air pressure manually. Later ones are automatic. Mine is a 2016 F3L and has to be adjusted by hand.

    I believe there is an accessory kit to make it automatic but...

    The obvious answer (to me at least) is get your passenger to try it out first before purchasing.

    I used to get this annoying whining sound coming from the rear, then I left the wife at home. All good now. Until I get home then it starts again...

    Ditto. I got these exact ones but fitted the left one on the right, right one on the left, and upside down to boot. Got an extra couple of inches of height that way.

    Is this dealer authorised to do the recall? Or any repairs on Spyders? Maybe Canam won't supply parts to this particular dealer because they don't pay bills? Who knows.

    When I replaced my topbox light (so that it actually produced light) back in 2017, it cost about AU$160 from memory. Not sure why they sell it in Oz with that stupid black dummy light assembly, but...

    "Is there any safe way to increase the payload or is it better to move up to the RT Limited? "

    I've found over the years that it's best to not read the manual at all. That way you will have...

    I find that when disconnecting the air hose from that valve I lose enough air to drop the rear end an inch or so. The airbag is so small that it doesn't take much to lose what pressure you've just...

    When I looked into this question of an adjustable brake linkage, my idea was first cutting the linkage in half, tapping one piece right hand thread, tap the other left hand thread, then use a...

    I have had the vented F4 21" windscreen for some years now. Perfect fit, miles better than the original screen and still clear as glass.

    A touch pricey, but then again, what spare part for the...

    Please note that the keys themselves are not programmable - they come with a fixed ID. The spyder is programmed to recognise the keys, not the other way around.

    I mount mine on a RAM mount, middle of handlebars. Very solid there, and can easily be adjusted out of the way of the instruments.

    My 2016 F3L didn't come with the topbox/topcase as standard so I had it fitted as an extra. As a result I still have that cover tucked away in case I ever restore it to original. Possibly someone a...

    Well, let's just say that if there were six positions for the brake pedal, I'd use #6.

    Considering this is a pre existing problem that occurred many times during the warranty period, it should still be covered. I'd have a serious chat with the dealer about this...

    I have an iPod Nano connected via USB to the system. Works like a charm and appears on the display too, audio feeds in through USB. I have several thousand or so tracks in one playlist so it seems to...

    There is supposed to be a plastic pin in that hole, similar to all the other plastic pins holding the F3L together but slightly smaller pin diameter and a wider head. I found out when I took my cover...

    Yep. I wired in some small amber LED lights next to the mirror along with a piezo beeper, connected to the wiring behind the mirror with a few small connectors so I can remove easily if needed. Same...

    You're right, the shims are not essential for the brakes to work, but without them the brakes may squeal like a stuck pig. They are not called 'anti squeal shims' for nothing.

    As far as I'm aware. the 'F3' is the base model of the F3 series, followed by the F3S, F3T, and last of all the F3Limited. Nothing wrong with the base model, just misses out on a few doodads that...

    I had this trouble on my 2016 F3L every week or so. The dealer "replaced a module" which seemed to fix it for a while, then it came back every 6 months or so. Currently OK but if it shows up again I...

    I ride a stock unmodified 2016 F3L and have since new and I think the main advantage the F3 series has over the RT series is... the foot position. On the F3 series, it is adjustable to suit your...
