• 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.

    Is the base F3 the sportiest model?

    Hi Brian10x, yes, the F3, S, and S Special are sport models lacking furniture and the taller rear sprocket. It's my understanding that the ECM will cut them all off at about 120 MPH so top end isn't comparable really. Either way, that sewing machine 3 cylinder engine is going to be screaming...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Unfortunately called local dealer and got the ball rolling on getting my '22 F3s license plate light replacement because it simply fell off. 5800mi, garage kept, seriously babied, and it just fell off. The lens is what is really gone but you gotta buy the whole shabang to the tune of $70 plus...

    Anybody used Castrol EDGE Euro 5W-40 A3/B4 Adv Full Synthetic Motor Oil?

    Hello all, I'm currently using penzoil Euro full synthetic 5w-40. Meets BRP specs and runs/shifts fine. I've picked out the activo for my next change but I'm interested in this jaso spec baja is talking about, going to read up on that thanks!

    2024 Spyder issues make me wonder if I should buy yet?

    Hi Pete, I've been stranded by DESS failure on my 2022 F3s. 1st for a couple minutes and then 2nd for a couple hours. You're right To be cautious and do your homework. Spyders are not the most reliable motorcycle product on the market for sure but there are plenty of them that never have issues...

    Anyone else had this 'Key Failed to Read' Problem?

    Right on Latrappe, second time it happened to me I was stranded so I had it disabled. Very disappointed in BRP not addressing this. Same technology in millions of cars with no issue.

    Riding Gear Poll

    A short errand I’ll wear just about anything. Otherwise it’s boots, aramid jeans, woven Kevlar no armor jacket, good helmet, gloves but maybe on the thin side.

    Removing Passenger Seat and Foot Pegs - any suggestions on covers?

    Hello, BRP makes covers for the rear pegs. Not 100% sure for the F3T but sure for the F3. Look at a parts diagram and you’ll find them. There’s a cover, sleeve, bolt, washer, and square nut. Study that LaMonster video, no joke.

    HowTo: F3 Storage Procedure +my added/changed procedures.

    This is how BRP details how to store an F3/S/T/or limited. *Asterisks are small but important things I added or changed. BRP recommends storage if no riding 4 months or more. 1. Add fuel stabilizer, PN779171, per bottle directions. Note: Engine should be run after fuel stabilizer is added to...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Had the F3 mirror recall done. I don't know if it's me or what but the new mirrors look clearer and wider angle.

    My 2022 S2S has a constant RPM fluctuation - problem, or normal?

    Mine does it, not really meant to be an accurate indicator anyway. Roll that throttle and she purrrrrrs like a cat!

    What's the general opinion - Wax or Ceramic on your Spyder?

    Ceramic for sure. Been using the turtle wax in the gray bottle at wally. I have a triple black F3 and it works on everything, windscreen too. I think you would be hard pressed to tell the difference between wax and ceramic.

    F3 Foot Peg Bracket - are the holes threaded, or just the brass plate?

    Look at a parts diagram on the web, help you figure it out. Dealer can get replacement parts not super expensive.
