• 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.

    How Do You Ride?

    I try to match traffic. I prefer smaller roads but sometimes the highways are the only way to get somewhere in a reasonable amount of time so I take them. For instance I’m riding from Kentucky to Virginia to visit family. I’ll be on the highway pretty much the whole way.

    HD Trike Lawsuit

    I considered an HD trike but talking to folks who had one steered me away from it. They said it felt really tippy in curves. I grew up with a Honda 200X ATC (3-wheeler) and I rolled that thing over on its side all the time. Granted I was 14 and flying through fields and riding a little crazy...

    Has Anyone else removed their F3T's windshield?

    I like the simpler cockpit of the F3S but I wanted larger saddlebags than the S model offered. I also needed a bike that could tow a trailer. I didn’t see trailer hitch options for the S model. I’m planning a few long distance trips and need cargo space as well as a trailer to carry my...

    That room / place is beautiful! I’d love a cabin type house.

    Has Anyone else removed their F3T's windshield?

    I hate windshields on bikes. My used Honda VTX1800 came with one. I took it off after a week. I took my F3T’s windshield off after three rides. I wanted to give it a chance but no it’s not for me. If it weren’t for the mirrors and gauges I would try to remove the fairing. (My belly and the Ryker...

    What Hobbies do you have other than the Spyder?

    In no particular order… Riding my Spyder Target shooting (handguns and bolt action rifles) Making electronic music (I’m horrible but it’s really fun) Learning piano / synth (Yamaha PSR-EW410) Reading science fiction, horror, “literature” (always sounds pretentious to me), short stories, essays...

    Opinions wanted - How I and the Dealer handled a service issue - long read warning

    It sounds like it’s a brand new bike. Anything wrong should be covered. If it wasn’t rubbing the dealer might not see it as urgently as you did. But they should have just fixed it under setup/warranty/whatever as it’s a brand-new bike. I can see the dealer being a little salty about it since...

    Passed my Washington State 3 wheel license test

    Congrats! I got my license by taking the motorcycle safety course back in 2011 on two wheels as that’s what I was riding back then. I’ve just kept the endorsement over the years even moving state to state. New Jersey did make me take the written test when I moved there. Pennsylvania and...

    What do you think of the 'New for 2025 - Spyder Canyon'?

    I think I'd pass on the Canyon. It's only one wheel drive; has low ground clearance; fenders too close to the tire so mud will cake and bind; a belt drive that will eat sticks and break; and it weighs over 1000 lbs. Pushing that out of a mud puddle will be horrible. It should have three-wheel...

    Will F3 Limited Floorboards fit on an F3T?

    Awesome. Again, thank you! I’ll post a follow up with the part numbers in case anyone else wants to do this.

    Will F3 Limited Floorboards fit on an F3T?

    Quick follow up: Did you just swap the peg/floorboard part itself or did you swap the entire assembly, mounting bracket and all?

    Tell Me Something Good About Your Spyder Ownership Experience

    My Spyder got me back on the road. I had a few motorcycles years ago, but had to sell because finances. Years later arthritis hit me hard causing me to use a wheelchair most of the time. As time went on I missed being out in the wind. Every time I heard others riding past the house I’d get...
