• 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.

    Brake Free Update

    From what I can see I like the additional "high" brake light - however I do not care for the "pulsing" of the light . I find it very distracting. Very nice concept.

    windshield

    I tried the Madstad on my "17 Base model F3. It had a light tint - wider and taller than standard. I found that at highway speeds it was not as stable as I thought it should be. Also it allowed a lot of wind to hit me around my knees and lap . I have tried a modified RT windshield and also one...

    Belt tensioner Roller failed, ruined my belt.

    I have never understood the need to apply pressure to the idler pulley. I set mine to barely clear the belt when not on bike. I have close to 20 thousand miles on my BRP idler and have no complaints - so far. I have modified some parts but still use the single bearing roller. To me it is...

    What's the deal with closing the F3 Gas cap!?

    Mine did not come from a perfect world - when new and not lubed I fought it many times. Lube it (I use waterproof plumbers grease) and turn the key as Ann suggests - absolutely no problems since !

    storage

    I am going to put my F3 on blocks this winter to give the suspension " a rest " Used to do this after each night of racing with a late model car I helped on. Makes sense to me.

    F3 BajaRon sway bar vs SpiderExtras Performance sway bar

    I have a "17 F3 base model. Changed the sway bar for one from an Rt. Made a nice difference - however I have been really curious about the next upgrade. Finally decided to get one from Spider Extras - yes money is a factor. I can't comment on Baja Ron's bar but the one I purchased is definitely...
