• 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. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

F3 Fender Swap

I don't like the fenders that came on my new F3, and I saw that Len at Pitbull has a demo bike with swapped fenders, so I'm swapping them, too.
If you've considered doing this with yours, the photo shows on the right the stock black fender, and on the left, the new body-matching white fender.
Also, although you can't tell from the photo, on the right is the stock yellow-tint incandescent fender tip bulb (Really? Incandescent in 2015 on a $20k+ bike?)
vs. the whiter, brighter, lasts-longer, easy-to-swap LED from Reggy at TricLED. (And that's Willow sneaking into the photo...I won't be swapping her for anything)

Like the white best. Others ?
 
Agreed . . . .

. . . They should be LED. They are on the F3-S, but all the other lights are incandescent.

Sadly, your garage is cleaner than my house. No wonder my F3 prefers it's BikeBarn. :roflblack:

Bob, it's a 1972 Suzuki RV90J Rover. It's my baby, and I'm going to be buried with it.
Tom, don't feel bad, I have a sickness. When I work on bikes I wear a white lab coat and surgeon's gloves.
My customer's bikes usually leave my workshop cleaner than when they arrived. Sheldon Cooper's disease.
 
looks great

Thank you I may need your help down the road and how fun is your bike?

Thank you
 
We did the white fenders on my wife's F3 (just had them painted). We also prefer the simpler fender on the non-S version. Consider painting the silver scoops black, too. Without the "Can-Am" enblem, the black fits the bike better than the silver.
