• 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.

    Time to replace this tire?

    I just replaced my OEM tires with the new Vredestein Quatrac's. My front and rear tires looked a lot like yours but I went ahead and replaced all 3. There was an amazing difference in the ride and handling. Wish I would have done it a lot earlier. I'm sure any of the recommended tires on...

    Idler pulley has wear marks at 300 miles - it's coming off!

    Taking into account all the suggested tensions from others, the service manual (168 lb. plus/minus 33 lb.) and the paperwork Ron sent with the Krikit II, I set mine around 175 lb. Cheers Bill

    Idler pulley has wear marks at 300 miles - it's coming off!

    This isn't about wear marks, but don't discount the tensioner as I did. When I purchased my F3-T 3 years ago I had no intention of ever putting a belt tensioner on it. The ride was smooth with no vibrations at any speed. Fast forward to a month and a half ago. I took my Spyder to have new...

    F3 Floorboards - pros and cons of what you’ve installed? Pics?

    The The Ultimate F3 Floorboard from CanAmSpyderAccessories.com. There a bit pricy but the ability to shift your foot position front to back (or even stand up) make them well worth the money. They are easy to install and look good. Best upgrade I've done the my F3-T so far...

    Vibration when Accelerating

    Thanks Ron, I had an hour ride from the dealer and I did check the alignment on the rear sprocket when I got home, it was fine. I also checked it after a 600 mile trip to Charleston, SC and back. I think they just tightened it up to specs. I'll look into getting a belt tension gauge and...

    2020 F3L hard shifting

    Couldn't agree more. Switched to Amsoil at 3000 miles and there was a noticeable difference in ease of shifting. Not saying the other oils won't do as well, just that I know Amsoil helped. Cheers Bill

    Vibration when Accelerating

    Happy Saturday, I recently had all 3 tires changed. On the receipt the dealer indicated that they had adjusted my drive belt (Not my request. Service write said they always do on rear tire changes). Now, I am getting a vibration when accelerating between 60 mph and 65 mph. The rest of the...

    Brp go

    I agree, BRP Connect and BRP Go are both rated badly in the app store, and in my experience, don't work well on my Spyder, but if you care to look at the website the dpetrick posted you will note that BRP is indeed combining the two app into one, it's just not out yet. There is a big "Coming...

    Vredestein Quatrac - First Impressions

    Good evening, Several weeks ago I purchased a set of Vredestein Quatrac tires (2 fronts and a rear) for my 2018 F3-T. Due to a beach vacation, finding a dealer that would install them without charging an arm and a leg, and work I wasn't able to get them installed until today. The dealer I...
