• 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.

    "Mechanically-Challenged" Guy Needs Help with Removing License Plate from Spyder

    Thanks for the replies, guys. So, I see that the consensus is that there's a nut behind the plate. I was afraid of that. It means reaching up into the rear wheel well all while dealing with the curve of the rear wheel. If so, great design, BRP! (sarcasm). Why couldn't they just make easy...

    Does iMotorsports Still Exist?

    When I try to reach www.imotorsports.com, i get to a screen which only lists "Related Searches" sponsored by other websites I'm not familiar with. I wanted to get a value on my 2016 F3T, because I'm considering selling it, and was hoping that iMotorsports still offered that. Thanks! Bert

    Tire Pressure Monitoring System?

    Anyone using a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) on their Spyder/Ryker that they are happy with? If so, could you provide a link to the item? Thanks!

    Thinking of Switching to a Ryker

    Well, as you can see, this is becoming a "try floorboards on the F3-T " vs "Test Drive the Ryker" dilemma! Good idea to test drive a Ryker but I don't know any dealer around here that would let me test on out for an hour! The standard seems to be about 15 minutes. Surprised to hear of your...

    Thinking of Switching to a Ryker

    Rick, I just re-read this post. I see you've tried both boards and pegs, so you speak from experience. Do pegs really "make your legs spread out further" than boards? Maybe I'm dense, but I haven't been able to wrap my head around how that's possible. In fact I don't understand how boards vs...

    Thinking of Switching to a Ryker

    Rick, Those are exactly the floorboards that I was considering trying, if not switching to a Ryker. (I guess that Great Minds Think Alike! :ohyea: ) But I'm not sure they are worth trying. - Would they really address my problem? (see below.) Thanks for your thoughts, SkiZo. But it's not...

    Thinking of Switching to a Ryker

    After almost 5 years of ryding in discomfort on my F3-T, I'm considering switching to a Ryker. I've been uncomfortable on my F3-T because I have low back issues and tight hips and the geometry of the F3-T is just too wide a sitting stance for me. I've tried all sorts of things like different...

    More F3-T Floorboards Questions .....

    Thanks for your thoughts, Pete. While it looks like Lamonster's boards would not require reverting back to the original brake linkage, the size of the floorboards themselves seems a bit short to me. It looks like Pierre's can accommodate more flexibility in foot positioning. I'd be curious...

    More F3-T Floorboards Questions .....

    We've exchanged e-mails. I'm just looking for other's actual experiences. Although Pierre has kindly offered to provide me with a Brake Rod, I have concerns about installing it - especially not having the capability of putting the Spyder on a lift. Thanks.

    More F3-T Floorboards Questions .....

    After 3 years of trying various things to alleviate some of the comfort issues I still have with my F-3T, I'm considering trying floorboards. In this thread, the consensus recommendation for floorboards on an F-3T is the "Ultimate" floorboards. After the positive words, I'm now considering...
