• 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.

    Gustafsson Windshield for my F3

    Hello Ricz, You purchased longer screws to complete the installation? My concern was that the stock screws might be too short if the windshield is any thicker than the stock shield. It would seem that if this is the case, then the vendor would supply them or at least provide a source for them...

    Gustafsson Windshield for my F3

    I think that is the answer I was looking for in part; You have supplied a solid endorsement of the 7jurock screen and a good reason to purchase one.... good pricing and experience. Many thanks for sharing this with me. I will probably order one tomorrow but am still puzzled by the price...

    Gustafsson Windshield for my F3

    It's hard not to think about the 7Jurock for half the price of the Gustafsson. I wonder what the additional money buys you? Is it a question of quality, customer service, fitment or what? Has anyone out there ever ordered and installed one of these for their F3?

    Gustafsson Windshield for my F3

    What is the "flip"? I see no reference to that on the order form.

    Gustafsson Windshield for my F3

    I currently have a Blue Ridge windscreen on my 2017 F3 and have been looking for an alternative. The current standard windscreen allows exposure of my full helmet to the wind blast creating lots of noise and making use of an in helmet microphone impossible. Now that Gustafsson Plastics is...

    F3 Engine Check Light with display "Check DPS"

    The dealer did replace the DPS unit under warranty. The service manager said that there were a couple of iterations of the unit and the 2017 and early 2018 models seemed to be having this problem. When I was picking up the trike, I was told another one had come in with the same problem. Much...

    F3 Engine Check Light with display "Check DPS"

    Your Problem Sounds Worse Than Mine. ​When I reset (shut down) the problem goes away. It is sporadic and I never know when it will occur. On my last trip, I was on the interstate for a number of miles with no problem, but on the return trip, also with a few miles on the interstate, it showed...

    F3 Engine Check Light with display "Check DPS"

    Got the "Check DPS" message again. It has been something over 2k miles since I originally reported this problem and it seemed to have gone away. However, on a recent ride I received a check engine light and the "Check DPS" message again. It was a fairly cool day, about 60 degrees, but the...

    F3 tool kit and more?

    Is this overkill on tools and spares? ​I'm flabbergasted!

    F3 Engine Check Light with display "Check DPS"

    Problem has not occurred again. I did not have the symptom of losing the power steering. All I saw was the DPS error message. The dealer was unable to retrieve the code that should have been stored on the computer but admitted they were having trouble with the laptop that they were plugging...

    F3 tool kit and more?

    I have had my Spyder for nearly a year now and it has been great. I have never had to do anything to it and am anticipating the first service, oil change and whatever. I was wondering what tools people carry on their machines for roadside type repairs. Currently, I carry a tire pump from...

    Owner Service

    If an owner does his/her own maintenance, will it invalidate the BRP warranty?

    Helmet Holders

    I was disappointed when I discovered that my new F3's Frunk was not large enough to hold my Arai full coverage helmet. My solution was to buy an inexpensive helmet lock and install it on the rear tubular frame. This may not be a panacea for everyone, and I have heard all the stories about the...

    Coolant in new bikes

    You are correct. Harley-Davidson is a major offender with H-D only oil that is tested and approved for their own engines. The gullible public will often buy in to such ludicrous claims. Not that there is anything wrong with branded products, but I think that this is more about making money than...

    Getting to F3 Spyder Battery

    The bat-looking plastic cover removed easily with a gentle prod using a large flat blade screwdriver.... popped right off. I sprung for a push pin pliers at NAPA which was delivered same day from their distribution center. Advance Auto, Auto Zone and Home Depot all had to order, Home Depot...
