• 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.

    2015 F3s Windshield

    I ordered from California Scientific (http://www.calsci.com) since they had one of the tallest at 24" (total height) and I'm 6'3". I'm very pleased after a year of riding with it.

    Pictures/Video on installation of a Baja Ron Sway bar & links

    What I did I'm not sure it was smart but it worked... I called it "Spyder Jenga". EDIT: this was done with a standard motorcycle lift, some 4x4's to add height it to it and the blocks, of course. Crank it up some, put blocks under, lower it back. Add 4x4's to the lift, crank it up more...

    How often do you use your Battery Tender, if you ride a lot ?

    It's not good for checking the quality of the battery (unless it's low when the bike is off) but it is a pretty quick test for the quality of the charging circuit. If you're near 14v when charging, bike on, then the alternator/stator/regulator is probably OK.

    How often do you use your Battery Tender, if you ride a lot ?

    BnG: if you have a tender cord attached, you could test right at it by sticking the test probes in it, no need to open the bike up. On F3 the battery is in the frunk... easy reach. I know other models have it well hidden. In general, though, I recommend measuring at the battery as first...

    How often do you use your Battery Tender, if you ride a lot ?

    If you have a voltmeter, check the voltage at the battery with the engine running. If it's around 14v dc, then your charging system is probably fine. If lower, like 12v, then you might have a problem.

    How often do you use your Battery Tender, if you ride a lot ?

    Battery Tenders are, for me, just a winter thing. I guess if I were going months between rides during the summer months it'd make sense but as long as it runs every couple weeks, I don't see it the least bit necessary.

    Ridiculous cost for a Spyder tag in Alabama

    I wrote about $1400 for my new F3T's tag. About half of that was remaining un-paid sales tax. Next year it'll be about $600 I think. Vehicles are taxed pretty heavily in CO.

    Pics: MLB's Rear Luggage Rack & I trimmed my F3-T's butt.

    My wife asked if I would be spraying the cars behind me with mud and rocks. I said that if I did, they were too close anyway. So there! :)

    Pics: MLB's Rear Luggage Rack & I trimmed my F3-T's butt.

    ...and the rack... The MBL Innovation's rear rack. It's very thick metal and he recommends a max weight of 40 lbs. Personally, if the F3 is ever in the way, I believe I could hang it from the ceiling from this rack to make some extra space. There's a cool F3 cut-out on the side It works...

    Pics: MBL's Rear Luggage Rack & I trimmed my F3-T's butt. A little plastic surgery ;) and a butt tuck is done. I like the change, the greater exposed tire.

    What GPS do you have

    What GPS do you have

    I'm not familiar with the TomTom but one feature I use on the Zumo is the ability to plan routes. If I want to get from, for example, Meeker to Denver, CO (last weekend's trip), it takes me the 3.5 hour way via the interstate and 25 miles of boring road. If I go by way of Steamboat Springs and...

    What GPS do you have

    I have the Garmin Zumo 660LM. I know it's more money but I like the trouble-free aspect, knowing it's built for the bike and rain and vibration proofed and glove friendly. It also has the MP3 player built in, which I really like and has been useful for having music on the bike. Finally, it...

    New Antenna from Spyderpops

    So no word on F3T compatability? The radio reception sucks so badly I'd be willing to try something new.

    glue recommendation for reflector on R-35 rigid saddlebags

    3M 3M makes double-sided tape that's used to put car-trim back on a car after it falls off. Tough stuff. I also once used JB Weld to put the bumper back on my car - 2-part epoxy - and I roughed up the plastic to get a good physical connection. I'd go with the 3M - you can get it at the...

    Know where the GPS input is for the F3T radio?

    Found it! I found it and connected it up this weekend. I cut the ring terminals off the Garmin power leads and attached the Tyco connector I got from eBay. After a false start with the leads backwards (black-stripe is positive) I routed the wire up, gathered the extra in a tie-wrapped loop...
