• 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.

    Anyone have experience with Ultra1 Plus 15W50 oil for their 1330? Opinions?

    Try DEF in diesel fuel. That happens more than you think, by accident someone momentarily HUA will put the fluid in the diesel tank.

    Anyone have experience with Ultra1 Plus 15W50 oil for their 1330? Opinions?

    My advice? If you have an SE6, stick with the proper weight. You've got an HCM that's designed for that particular viscosity, and you may encounter shifting or slipping issues if you change grades.

    Another overfilled ryker by the dealer.

    I think the dealer does it that way because checking oil on the F3 anyway, is time consuming. To do it right, you have to ride the trike about 10 miles, come back and let it idle for ten minutes, turn it off and then check the oil. Dealers don't like "wasting" time. And actually, replacing the...

    FYI - HCM Oil Filter Change

    After changing the HCM filter, do you need to do any special procedure in BUDS? I'm doing the 28k maintenance schedule. Thanks :f_spider: :f_spider: Ps: I just did what I should have done first... checked the Forum..BUDS not needed. :ohyea: On my F3-S the filter and its cover practically...

    Anyone replaced Spark Plugs on F3-S? Is it really a big job?

    Good to know, I know they came with factory platinum plugs, so I think I'll keep mine in until the next 28k service. I'm going to change the HCM filter though.

    Anyone replaced Spark Plugs on F3-S? Is it really a big job?

    Mine has 25k miles and I figure I'd do the 28k mile maintenance, which requires a plug change, even though they are platinum plugs which should last 50k or more.

    Anyone replaced Spark Plugs on F3-S? Is it really a big job?

    Has anyone replaced the spark plugs on their 2017 or similar F3-S? Is it really a big job based on what I've read, that the console and air intake assembly have to come off? It looks like a bear... :spyder: Terry :f_spider: :f_spider:

    Are warped discs a common problem with Spyder Front Brakes?

    Your Spyder is exactly like mine except, did you paint the front wheels with yellow? Mine are all black. Terry

    Some serious damage there, I'm almost surprised it wasn't totaled. Terry

    What General Maintenance is needed at 30k miles - 2017 F3Ltd?

    What is the canister pre-filter? What canister, and where is it?

    Are warped discs a common problem with Spyder Front Brakes?

    I'm glad you recommended the EBC disks and pads, because that's what I just replaced the OEM parts with. You can get Chinese replacement disks for half the cost... but you'll get what you pay for. Just curious, what happened when you were rear-ended? Did the trike suffer a lot of damage? Terry

    New F3S Owner - is it normal for the gearshifts to be this loud?

    They do make a clunking sound when shifting, and also when putting them into either forward or reverse. You'll get used to it.

    Are warped discs a common problem with Spyder Front Brakes?

    Just replaced the front discs and pads on my 2017 F3-S. It has 25k miles, and the old brakes were shuddering when stopping. Apparently, the discs were warped. Anyway, is this a common problem with Spyders? :spyder: :spyder:

    New 2023 F3-S solo, but has foot pegs - what options to make it 2-up?

    Just like mine when I bought it in 2018. I have the original tail piece.

    Is removing 1330 Water pump simple? How to drain/bleed coolant?

    That's what I did when draining my coolant to change it. I removed the basket to get to the hose t-fitting and separated the hoses..it drains easily and I did not have to bleed the system. Just fill it up, start the engine to operating temperature, let it cool and top it off. Unlike the first...
