• 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.

    Stickers or Wraps to cover Existing Paint - any Custom or Templates?? Other ideas?

    Having owned my 2024 F3S now for almost a year, I am discovering that particular areas are not holding up well when it comes to scratching, paint deterioration, etc. Does there exist a website that offers what are essentially coverings or stickers that will allow one to cover an area? For...

    Multiple Faults and VSS Message when trying to start - any ideas?

    Latest update! Today (Dec 3rd), as I prepared my 2024 F3S for pickup by the tow truck driver, the parking brake failed, which is another sign that the battery is kaput! This is what I'm told sans experience. The start message also played on a loop, which was amusing ONLY because I was/am...

    AndyF3S - I will check into that. Thanks for the tip!

    Multiple Faults and VSS Message when trying to start - any ideas?

    AndysF3S - I believe you're correct, and so does the service department at the dealership where I bought it. They suggested that if I continue using the battery tender to leave it attached for greater than 4 hours to 8 hours and then try it again, but they believe I need a new battery. Snowbelt...

    Multiple Faults and VSS Message when trying to start - any ideas?

    Latest update, written only a few hours after my original post. I called the shop about the above problem. They said, 100% it's a battery issue. They suggested I charge the battery. Once the battery is fully charged, the messages should go away, and faults cleared. They also said this is a...

    Multiple Faults and VSS Message when trying to start - any ideas?

    Concerning my 2024 Can-Am Spyder F3S, I geared up to take a ride this weekend on one of our first decently cool days here on the Gulfcoast of Florida. Turned the key, cleared the message screen, and nothing. Instead of a start, I got nothing, as if I had a dead battery. A dead battery? How? I...

    F3-T Stuck in First Gear (Ostensibly) and Won't Start?

    Lastest and maybe the last word on this thread about my wife's 2024 F3-T... The dealer fixed the "wrong key" warning and her being unable to start her Spyder. The key simply needed reprogramming. The service dept., tells me this happens often and has nothing to do with anything being attached to...

    F3-T Stuck in First Gear (Ostensibly) and Won't Start?

    The lastest news is just after the dealer fixed the key issue, they're getting a transmission fault error code they don't know how to clear. They're waiting on BRP to get back to them. It's been a whole week, so far, waiting for this issue to be resolved. It's a real shame. It took my wife a lot...

    F3-T Stuck in First Gear (Ostensibly) and Won't Start?

    Finally heard back from the dealer about my wife's 2024 Spyder F3-T. The key in question only needed reprogramming has worked on the last dozen starts. For now on, we'll carry both keys on us just in case as it apparently "can" happen often.

    F3-T Stuck in First Gear (Ostensibly) and Won't Start?

    An interesting thing occurred to me and my wife over the weekend that prompted me to post it here, hoping that maybe it might help someone else. For those that prefer short posts, my wife's new F3-T would not start after only owning it 2 weeks. The gear indicator read 1 instead of N, yet the...

    Apple Car Play download initially failed! NOW Finally available....

    After my initial question regarding Apple CarPlay having not been installed on my new 2024 Spyder F3-S back in late March, I did speak to a representative at my dealership and today received a letter from BRP. Firstly, the representative at my local dealer where I purchased the Spyder was - to...

    Advice on mobile phone placement, what would work?

    Hello my sage advisors! My daily rider is a 2024 Can-Am Spyder F3 S ("Lucille") and currently I am using a SP Connect system to hold my iPhone Pro Max 13 (strongly considering getting an Android). I had to use a combo of two mouting kits to get it to a). fit the thicker Can-Am handlebar and b)...

    Is there a Bigger or rather, longer seat for 2024 F3-S?

    Pete, Thanks for the caveat. I had a suspicion they would require me to send my seat to them for alterations. I sure don't wanna do that. I'd rather source a new seat, and keep the OEM for resale or if I trade her in for a newer model. Any idea on cost for Daylong? Are we talking like $1k and...

    Is there a Bigger or rather, longer seat for 2024 F3-S?

    Would it be a trouble to ask you to post a pic of the Corbin seat base? Sounds like an interesting idea. Thanks! - Declan

    Is there a Bigger or rather, longer seat for 2024 F3-S?

    Hey Bill, Thank you kindly for that recommendation. I've seen the Ultimate Seats site before. I'm actually okay with a 1 seat solution if that's what it takes. I'm a big guy, only 6'-0", and losing weight, but for now, gosh it would be nice to ride without the butt pain. Thanks again though...
