• 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 this tire pluggable?

    Have a small puncture and was considering plugging it. But as I've never done it before (but understand how its done), I just want to make sure the location of puncture should be plugged or tire replaced?

    Changing ufit brake linkage

    Easy I am incredibly inept when it comes to mechanical issues, but this was probably the easiest install of all. It' been a year but I believe you remove the 1 bolt to release the link and 1 bolt (maybe 2) to move the bolt that allows you to move the foot rest (1 each side). I think it took...

    Has anyone installed chrome parts on their non-black F3? Any pics?

    Plasti Dip I highly recommend Plasti-Dipping the parts. Its easy and inexpensive, it protects the surface of the parts dipped and you can remove it later if you change your mind. I've got 2 small parts left to dip and there will be no shiny chrome / grey surfaces left, I even did the wheels.

    LED replacement bulbs for Rear & Signals

    I am wanting to change out the bulbs for the rear brake light and the signals on the front of my F3, but I am having a heck of a time trying to figure out what the bulb types are to look for LED replacements (probably from China - had good luck with them when I did this on my old RT). Also, I...

    F3 Belt Tension (lbs/kg)

    I had a new belt installed recently and I want to check the tension of it now that I've put on a 1000km on new belt. I have a Kricket that measures the tension by LB / KG, but I am not sure what the tension is supposed to be set at. If anyone has the info it would be greatly appreciated. I'd...

    Lifting/jacking a Spyder F3-S

    Ramps first. Due to the really low clearance of the F3, I use car ramps first, than jack it up and put jackstands under it.

    Madstad Windsheild

    Madstad is the best I love the Madstad, I've seen all the others but none compare. This one is the 20" with dark tint (I'm 6'1") and my eyesight is a few inches above the top which is perfect!

    Heated Grip usage

    On mine as well I've got them on mine as well. And other than the button depressing and staying in down position there is no other way to tell there on other than the sweet heat coming off of them (as the light is on all the time on the button)

    Edmonton F3 Build

    Minor Upgrade Still snow on the ground here in Northern Alberta, but we had a couple of nice days so I took the F3 into get the recall done for the shock support plate. And I figured while I'm here I upgraded the rear shock to the one designed for 2 up ($210 bucks = to about $170 of your US...

    Sadddlebags

    The bags have a stiff panel facing the wheel that helps keep its shape. As well though, I remove the handles and made small plates of pvc type material with holes drilled that allow them to mount to where the handles are. But the straps are designed to keep them from moving at all.
