• 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.

    Gearing differences between F3-L and F3-S ?

    I've got both. A 2015 F3-S and a 2017 F3-L. They are geared differently. In 6th gear @60mph the S is running at ~3400 rpms. At the same speed, the L is turning ~3050. Seems to be about 1 gear difference between the two in the higher gears. Very noticeable when doing downshifts for curves...

    F3 issues

    Both shocks have the same part #s stamped on them....at least mine did. As far as I can tell, they are the same. You'll need the special tool (shock-spring compressor) if you only buy the spring and intend to use your OEM shock. You'll need it to remove the OEM spring from the OEM shock and...

    F3 issues

    Only the Spring is different.... After I bought my F3-S, I did the switch to the heavier duty rear suspension setup. After purchasing the shock/spring "kit", I found that only the spring is different. The shocks have the same part number stamped on them. Going this route (switching only the...

    BRP Warranty Warning

    This "gotcha" got me too.. I got this surprise yesterday in the mail too. During the recent purchase process of my 17 F3-L, I understood (from the dealer) that I would get the full 2-year warranty + the additional 1-year BEST coverage. The dealer talked to the BRP district rep (dealer reps...

    Rear Cargo Door Open

    A dab of silicon works too..... I had the same problem on my Ltd. I just put a small dab of black silicon on the tip of the little plastic post in the rear of the cover that contacts (pushes down on) the sensor switch.:thumbup: .

    F3 Limited vs. F3-T - is the Limited worth the premium?

    The LTD also has nicer (to me) chrome front wheels and an electronic rear suspension ("T" suspension is manual). The ride quality on my LTD is noticeably better than on my F3-S. Also, I can ride the LTD in the curves at higher speeds than the S. I've got a torsion bar to put on the S...
