    My new F3-S has the Yuasa. It sat at the dealer for a year before I bought it. At the first sign of an issue, I will get a LIFEPO 4. Lithium battery, if possible. If not, then just a regular Lithium...

    "Do not live in your fears".

    Mike Tomlin, the Steeler coach, often uses that quote. What the heck is wrong with a new 2024? From the beginning there have been people swearing at things about the...

    I never touch that kill switch on only of my bikes. Why? With my luck it would just be like your horrible experience.

    When the bike does not start now, that is the first thing I look for....

    RA crippled me after riding motorcycles since 1956. Had the same questions and I found my answer. Two years ago, I bought a Ryker Sport and added the three-piece luggage and the Ultimate seat. The F4...

    Had 65 years of manaul transmission driving, car, truck and motorcycles. The new F3-S was a grasp to keep on the road into my 80's without falling over, especially two-up. Immediately I did manual...

    Good to know all this.

    Had mine all apart for over a week. Parts I ordered still not in and Daytona calls so I put it back together. Took a full day to assemble what I had apart. Ride today on...

    Good luck with the sale. My experience, trying to sell a 1980 Moto Guzzi I bought new that now has 11K miles on it and an '07 FatBoy with 71K, is awful. Darn near can't give them away with ads...

    Well guess what...I did it and did NOT remove the windshield.

    At the front point, detach the windshield mount and tilt the windshield back. Then take out the very front trim piece...
  12. Can I do an F3-S Headlight Bulb Change with F4 windshield attached? Ideas?

    Is it possible with an F4 windshield attached?

    Forget SlingMods video. That nose piece does not slip off when the bottom screw is taken out. There are side screws on my 2022 F3-S. If I could get...

    The M2 shock from Marcus has NOT arrived yet. The problem is the factory garbage for a solo ride on a bike sold with two seats for two-up riding. My Ryker was way better.

    I told Marcus our exact...

    Finally got the headlight bulbs. Will put them in tomorrow. No fog lights to put in. Slingmods screwed up the fog lights, sending me a pair that were opened, maybe used and had parts missing. Jumping...
  15. Any source for the (discontinued?) Can Am Two-up Shock?

    It is part # 219400734. From my searching I am guessing it was discontinued. Why do I want one?

    Saw that. The lights I used on my Ryker were only 6,000 lumens. They worked when I went out to test one evening. Never rode at night. Really never want to. 16,000 lumens seemed to me like a lot.

    OK... Based on this and the other comment about the base being plastic, I just ordered two of these.

    Do have the LED fog lights coming from Slingmods. As for headlights, that "hyperflash" issue is for turn signal lighting...I think. The LED headlights from Slingmods and Lamonster are viable...
  19. Anybody tried Cheap H4 LED Bulbs in a new Spyder???

    Traded my Ryker on a new F3-S Spyder. On the Ryker I bought a cheap (Ebay) set of H4 LED headlight bulbs. Put them in and they worked perfectly. Fog lights coming to replace the plugs up front. Since...

    Just traded my Ryker for a new F3-S model in the yellow/green color. Dealer was fair on both trade-in and new bike price. Ordered three-piece luggage and windshield. Will ride when I get it all...

    That comment about the turn signal not always trying off woke up a "ghost" in me. Before I left on the mountain trip I started to have turn signal issues. Just turned it off and forgot about it. Just...

    This was me on my Harley in 1956. Got a ticket in 1958, turned 16 in '59 and then took my test on it.

    Might try just putting something over the magnet.
    Not saying it will work, but easier than taking things apart.


    Maybe. Not sure what might block a magnet from working and how it would stay...

    That's easy. Only thing is if I take that apart my gut feeling is there is a spring that will "unspring" and cause me hell. If not, then there may be a way to get inside that ring and knock that...

    I don't do cities and parking garages are in cities. Possibly a good idea.

    $200 later and the dealer did create the left turn issue. With the left footage down the stability control engages, a...

    This is me and the wife on the "Dragon" last week. After 7 months of riding the 2022 Ryker Sport we were excited for our month-long vacation out of Maggie Valley, NC. I ONLY ride two-up....

    Would think so. Mine is still under warranty until September. If a problem I sure would expect it to be covered.
