• 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.

Rear fairing for top trunk removal on 2019 F3-L

Can anyone confirm if the rear fairing for earlier model F3 limited bikes work on the 2019 model? Reason I ask is looking on cheapcycleparts I see the part listed for older models but on 2019 I can't seem to find it. Beleive the part number I'm looking for is 708001788. Can anyone with a 2019 model confirm the older parts fit and work?
 
Rear fairing for a 2019 F3T is 708302912... Can Am part website in F3T section 09-Body and Accessories Cargo. 100L on the exploded view.

2018 does have a different part number, but the 2018 is Steel Black and the 2019 is Deep Black....difference is likely, but not confirmed, just the color difference...

Just to make sure I'm clear before purchase, the f3T body part such as rear fairing will fit F3 limted
 
who has done this, i just took delivery of my 2020 F3 limited, and want to order cover, is there any clips or other parts needed.. thanks
 
I checked the CanAm parts page and don't see anything for the F3. They have covers and a rack for the RT but I doubt if it will fit our F3's with LinQ.
 
I am supposed to be picking up my new '21 F3 Ltg next week (hopefully)...and, it boggles me why BRP allows the top case to come off simpler than prior years...yet not offer a rear fairing / fender for the 20's. My dealer said he could order one, but only in black and could have it match the paint if I wanted. Looking at about $500 for a paint matched rear fender though...sigh. Why would I take off the top case and just have a bare spot looking like a missing lego piece...I don't want that...I bout this for long distance traveling, but apparantly didn't do my homework well. I would like to take off the top case for when I'm local. Personal choice.

I'd love to find out absolutely for sure about the rear fend and if the LINQ setup will surely work with the limited. Even though some brochures say the linq will...brp's store states only the RT.

I am and then not glad to be the only one confused and wanting the same thing...ugh.

Some say the LINQ will

i too am looking for an answer for the same thing,, i dont care if its black, i would just like the sportier look, as i dont take many long trips..
 
I need to expand on my original topic above. I ordered my F3 Ltd April 3 2021. I hope it is delivered tomorrow and double hope to pick it up next week after some custom work during the build process.

But, I only thought about the rear fairing / fender as of 2 days ago. My sales guy ordered me a fender (which is black). If work will allow a few free minutes during the day (I work a lot)...I will ask him if he'll share where he got it. I finalized the purchase agreement today and know the rear fender / fairing / panel cost me $250.

After I responded above, I took a few moments late last night to send BRP the following message via their site.

"Hi. Will you please verify if the LINQ system will work with the 2021 F3 Limited? I want to remove the top case when local, but I do not want a blank spot behind the seat as if missing a lego piece. Also, what about a rear fender or fairing to go where the top case goes when not in use? I have asked in many forums with only assumptions as answers. Someone did share a brochure where it says the Limited works with LINQ however your site store only shows it will work with RT. Please advise on my questions. I am picking up my 2021 F3 Limited hopefully next week."

And...I get the following response via email this afternoon.

"Thank you for taking the time to contact BRP. In response to your request, we suggest you contact your local BRP dealership."

No much help...ugh.

It's almost scary funny how I find out things about items I bought later...such as...when removing the top case, you no longer have an antenna for radio signals unless you relocate it or do something else...I never imagined I would have to figure that out prior.

keep us posted about the cover for after taking top case off,, as i want to do this.. part number and any clips or mounting hardware,, thankyou

as far as the antenna goes, i get many stations on all my radios where i live. i get one on the spyder, dealer said to stop over when im in the area and they will look at it, but from what ive found, its a problem on alot of spyders.. ive recorded a couple MP3 files that are 8 hrs. long from iheart radio, and i will play those via bluetooth thru my phone.. or MP3 player
 
Hey all...I have not forgotten...life has thrown some curve balls, so I have not been able to find more info on the rear fender / fairing. I will update this as soon as possible.
 
A bit off topic but maybe not too far.....I tried removing my top box (2020 F3L, LinQ) and the directions say: 1. Release the catch (what catch? I already released the inside lock) 2. Reach under the box and disconnect the cable (can't reach under, will only lift about 1/2"). It seems it should slide back after undoing the lock inside the trunk but I can't get anything other than the 1/2" lift and then it stops. I want it off to work on the antenna, not to leave it off.

Sorry about the post, I should have done a search!

@McRuss, I am going to try and remove my top case this week.

As far as the rear fender / fairing goes, it is still trapped on the Canadian border per my dealership. I will post that information about it when I get it...dealership will mail it to me instead of me having to go way back down there to get it.

And, I just got my bike back...love and hate it. Dealer cannot get the :cus: vibrations out of the front end. I know it's not the belt. I had PPA's put on the bike when they were building it. The tires been aligned 3 times with 2 different sets of new tires. I was told they laser aligned it as well.

I am so disappointed for a high dollar bike that vibrates beginning at 50mph and gets worse the faster it goes. My former 2014 ST-S I traded in rode smoother...and one of their stock F3 Limited's rode smoother...yet, the ones who rode mine at the dealership said the bike rode as expected...whatever.

So, I'm looking for a Road Force balancer I've been reading about...about 10 or so in my town...BUT, none have the parts to work with these 15" spyder wheels.

I'm down for any suggestions anyone has...desperate actually.

I know you may not like my suggestion but I would try putting car tires on the front and see if that cures your vibration. As most on here know that the Kendra's are crap tire.
 
Take it to pit bull or Lamonsters garage. They can confirm the alignment, or fix it. Lots of people like centramatic balancers. Lamont sells those. It should ride as smooth or smoother than your old one. Pit bull is a dealer, and can do it under warranty.
