• 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.

    Two weeks to flatten the curve

    I wonder how many of us baby boomers would be around to ride our Spyders if the polio pandemic of the 1950's had been as politicized as the covid pandemic has? I also wonder what this short video has to do with the stated goals of this website. Just askin for a friend.

    Noticed any (other?) improvements after the Front Sprocket Recall?

    I had my pulley replaced on my 2015 F3S on 2-17-23. The tech said that my old pulley was not showing any wear. With the new pulley I have noticed a significant reduction in noise when accelerating from 20 through 50 mph. Prior to the replacement the roar in that speed range was very...

    How many miles do you have on a recall pulley/sprocket?

    2015 f3s with 16,000 miles and no red dust. I do inspect the pulley on a very regular basis.

    Help ID this part, please:

    I have seen brackets similar to these used on atv's for mounting additional lights. Just a thought.

    Review: Two Wheels of Suches, Georgia

    I just got back from a weekend at Two Wheels of Suches, GA. Perfect weather and great twisty roads. I want to give Two Wheels of Suches a great shout out! The campground is clean and well cared for. I stayed in a cabin which was clean with sheets, pillow cases and towels provided. The...

    Whites Cycle and Marine Chattanooga, TN I bought my 2015 F3 from them and have been very pleased with the service so far. They have a tech who I believe is certified and he seems very knowledgeable about Spyders. I am confident that Whites will take good care of my needs.

    2015 F3S Check Engine Fault

    I had gone on a great 150 mile ride in and around the Cherokee National Forest. I made a quick stop at the grocery about 2 miles from home and when I pulled into a parking space I found that I was unable to engage the parking brake. Since I was parked on a slight incline I decided to shift...

    OUR NAMES

    Oldrunner48. Pretty straight forward. I was an avid runner until my knees gave out, and I was born in 1948.

    Belt tensioner.

    Vibration almost nonexistant! My 2015 F3 is an awesome ride, but the vibration above 62mph was very disturbing and distracting. The vibration was most noticeable when feathering the throttle anywhere above 62mph. It was most annoying at 70mph and above. In fact I was hesitant to ride above...

    F3 and Knees

    Go for the F3! I thought I would add a little more insight on my move to an F3. In MHO the F3 is a whole different ride. Where my ST-S was fun to ride around town and to the store, the F3 is an absolute hoot. Handling is much more precise, adding a whole new level of excitement in the...

    F3 and Knees

    My knees hurt as well. I have bad knees as well. A half hour on my ST and I needed to stop and walk around to relieve some of the pain. I traded my ST-S for a 2015 F3 in March and can say with certainty that my knee pain is all but gone. The riding position on the F3 is perfect for my old 67...
