• 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.

    A Very Baffling question

    I've read through all this thread and it is interesting to hear what is said but I still have a dilemma. My ride is a F3-S and I want to do a cat bypass and do away with the stock muffler and use a motorbike sport muffler (looks better in my eyes) in stead. But the thing is, the vast majority...

    Cat Delete Replacement Pipe

    Have just checked with my local Cam-AM Dealers, (On-A-Hill Garage Ltd, Ilfracombe, Devon, UK) who are always friendly and helpful and they say that emission tests are not required for the MOT on the Spyders so the CAT can be removed without causing failure problems. Apparently many of their...

    Cat Delete Replacement Pipe

    That is interesting. When you make your enquiry at the test centre I'd love the hear what they tell you as that would obviously affect my decision as to whether I try a cat delete or not. Perhaps you would be good enough to MP me the result just in case I miss it here on this forum. Cheers.

    Cat Delete Replacement Pipe

    I notice no one has answered or commented on the above quote of my original posting. Thought some techie might have taken up the Lambder (oxygen detector) discussion. Or do Spyders not have a Lambder sensor in the exhaust system. The reason I'm trying to get info on this subject is that I...

    Cat Delete Replacement Pipe

    I hope this post is not naïve to the extreme but I was under the impression that the cat was in the exhaust to cut down on (possibly) dangerous emissions. And, as in the case of most cars, is the output of the cat not monitored (Lambder sensor) so that the engine management chip can adjust the...

    Outside (ambient) temerature gauge reading.

    Excellent reply Grandpot. That's why I thought it peculiar that BajaRon moved the sensor away from the air intake duct, it was obviously put in that position in order to get the mixture right. But why oh why did Can-Am think that the rider might want to know or need to know what the...

    Outside (ambient) temerature gauge reading.

    The outside (ambient) air temperature gauge on the multifunction gauge cluster of my F3-S always seems to be quite inaccurate. It always seems to read 4 or 5 degrees centigrade higher than the local air temperature. I realise that sometimes reading can be high due to sun shining on the Spyder...

    What colour code/referance is Orange/Red?

    Thanks for the link and suggestions Bruce and Rob. That paint page is the same as I already have from the workshop manual that I have quoted in my original post. The problem is still, is it Red or is it Orange? I don't want to order my wrap in Red in case it is printed in red as we all...

    What colour code/referance is Orange/Red?

    I have a 2015/16 F3-S as picture here. The framework/chassis is Orange in my opinion but on looking in the workshop manual the only colour reference I can find for this model is Dragon Red B-311 FBCH SOL 926050. On a previous model it is referred to as 'Viper Red' and on another as 'Can Am...

    Because we never stop creating..

    I realised from early on when I got my F3-S that the finish on the tank side panels are vulnerable to wear from the side seams of my jeans where the knees touch them. I was unaware that stick-on protective flashes were available (as spoken of in this thread) so I made my own very successfully...

    Anyone with an F3 tried BRP's Chopped Rear Fender?

    Glad that you like it Buster, I am pleased with the look myself and think it worth the expense. Afterall my Spyder is my babe. :bowdown: Here's a couple of pics of finished item as request. Cheers Paul.

    Anyone with an F3 tried BRP's Chopped Rear Fender?

    UK version not so simple. I really wanted to fit a chopped rear fender to my F3-S as the one thing I hated on mine was the rear fender (mud guard in the UK) because it looked too Harley Davison (aaaah) and it hid the lovely wide Spyder back tire. But the BRP chopped fender part 219400597 is...

    Burning Rubber Smell

    Not unusual I ride a 2015 F3-S with 4,500 miles on it. I often smell burning rubber when I park it in my garage after a run. I don't think there is anything wrong with the Spyder and think the smell comes from the rear tyre due to my too frisky use of the throttle on the way home. mmmmmm.

    Is Lamonster Garage still trading??

    Well bully for you. And thanks for the lecture on various aids for the deaf. Having been PREFOUNDLY deaf for 50 years I am well aware of 'teletype' and third party methods of communication. If Lamonster are too busy to drop me a one or two sentence email you can imagine how happy they...

    But what about if they are deaf, do you just ignore them as if they don't count???

    Is Lamonster Garage still trading??

    Your sarcastic post is childish and unhelpful which I resent. You will be please to learn however, that the 'telephone' has in fact spread across the pond to the UK, and believe it or not we even have colour television, laptops and mobiles. Since I happen to live in the UK I do not wish to...

    Is Lamonster Garage still trading??

    How long do I need to be patient? Its been 19 days since I emailed Lamonster Garage about some parts I want to buy but heard nothing back. Guess they don't want the business so I'll have to look elsewhere to spend my money.:(
