• 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.

    GEICO - anyone had F3 Body Shop Repairs done Following Collision?

    Anyone have experience with GEICO following a collision? I have had experience with them following an auto accident and it is seamless - you can use their body shops and no money changes hands. However, I was rear ended on my 2020 F3 Limited while waiting at a stop light yesterday - dude in a...

    USB In Glove Box Not Charging - 2020 F3 Limited

    Oh!!! And I forgot to mention that every cable I have tried works in either my vehicle and/or in my house. My Spyder just does not seem to approve. I am so confuuuuuuuused!!!!

    USB In Glove Box Not Charging - 2020 F3 Limited

    Understood, Flamewinger - I have tried different cables, different phones, cleaned the ports (and did you miss that I also mentioned the "hokey pokey"?) - all to no avail. Yes, I am reading 5.0-5.2, as well - yet I am either getting the "USB MALFUNCTION" error or no USB indicator on the dash -...

    USB In Glove Box Not Charging - 2020 F3 Limited

    Thanks for the suggestion, Woodaddict - I did that in the past on my 2015 F3-S. However, when a piece of equipment that used to be considered an upgrade is now provided as a standard piece of equipment on an upgraded unit you've paid a premium price for...is it too much to expect it to work...

    USB In Glove Box Not Charging - 2020 F3 Limited

    I am re-posting this in the hopes someone has come up with a solution.... I've had my 2020 F3 Limited since he was "born". Just about since day one, the USB in the glove box will only charge intermittently. The USB symbol may appear on the dash for the first 5 minutes of ryding, but then "USB...

    Looks aren't everything , or are they ?

    Hey Motogordo - you are in my neck of the woods! I had traded my 2015 F3-S for the 2020 RT Limited - found myself not being able to sleep and emailing the dealer at 2am for my old ryde back. I tried to love the RT - warm tushy....heated grips that actually get warm (compared to the F3 grips...

    Anyone resolved the Whining noise in 2020 RT's? - DONE!

    I hear a lot of folks talking about this front sprocket. How do I locate it to see if I have the new, noise free, white one? I bet I don't, as I get the same whine at 49mph and goes away at 52mph.:gaah:

    New 2020 F3 Ltd - Does the rear panel from a RT fit?

    Nope - apparently BRP gave us F3 owners the same nifty removable top case as the redesigned RT, but without the ability to finish it. No top panel, no other Linq options. It was a teaser, for sure. When I called BRP to ask them about it - they kept referring me back to my dealer. When I came...

    Lamonster Highway Bracket - F3 Limited

    Thanks guys - but again - I am only 5'2. Even in position B (2), my feet to not hang off of the front of the boards to rest my foot on something. And if I have to reach to the front AND to the outside...well... that is going to be about as comfortable as I was on my 2020 RT before I traded out...

    Lamonster Highway Bracket - F3 Limited

    Has anyone mounted Lamonster's highway brackets on your floorboards with the pegs facing toward the spyder instead of away from it? Is it possible? I am vertically challenged and stretching my legs that far away from the machine is just not gonna work for me.

    Whale, hail!

    While BRP put forth a valiant effort to make the RT for F3-like in the re-design, they did miss the mark in the ergonomics (in my opinion). I had traded in my F3-S for the 2020 RT - and promptly traded that in 6 weeks later for an F3 Limited. While the RT may look cooler, you are still sitting...

    First Post - How many miles is TOO many?

    Hey VegasDan - what a great dad you are!!! Being just 5'2" myself, I would strongly suggest she take the BRP Rider Education Course. She will not only get her license, but be able to ride every brand new Ryker and Spyder model that is on the market. I was most comfortable on the Ryker in my...

    Which of these 2 windshield heights for my 2020 Spyder F3?

    Johnnie - go to Lamont's website - http://www.lamonstergarage.com/ . He has several heights of Freedom Shield's F3 windscreens in stock, with several different tint options - and far less costly than OEM (leaving you with much needed cash to do other mods). I've had two Freedom screens and...
