• 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.

    What Coolant to use??

    I changed mine with a piece of plastic I gave to dealer. He was nice enough to give me a piece of paper back.:D

    Front pulley change - Wow, what a job!

    Glad to hear you did that yourself instead of having it break down on the road because of the worn front pulley like mine did at !8,700 miles in May 2021

    looking for recent opinions on cat-delete pipe.. 2020 f3 limited

    Well, lemme tell ya. I went through all that changing pipes for better sound on a Harley I once owned. At 67 I'm all grown up now and ain't changin the exhaust on my 2015 F3 just for louder/deeper sound. I want quiet. Enjoy your bike.

    Any concerns with buying a 2017 F3 with only 1200 miles?

    Yes. Make sure you have roadside assistance and maybe an extended warranty. My 2015 F3 broke down In May this year at 18,700 miles. The front pulley wore out. That is a common problem known to happen at 18-24,000 miles. Can-Am should have done a recall on that in my opinion, but didn't...

    My Spyder F3 broke down on the road today

    Yes, all is well. I meant "anti-freeze change," not "transmission fluid change." I will look for the transmission filter on the F3. And yes I knew the transmission and engine oil are one in the same. I think the maintenance schedule calls for the trans filter to be changed every 28,000...

    My Spyder F3 broke down on the road today

    56 days later (today, July 2, 2021) I got my F3 back from the dealer. I had called over the past several weeks and was told they were waiting for the part. I was told early on that they had to drain the oil and get into the transmission because the transmission filter was never changed. I told...

    Proud Owner of 2021 Spyder F3

    Congratulations. It is fun. But! Watch my thread for updates. My 2015 F3 SE6 broke down on the road May 7, 2021 with 18700 on the odometer. I have maintained my Spyder well and I ride like an old man.....because......I am an old man.:)

    My Spyder F3 broke down on the road today

    Yeah. When I told the dealer, owner and service manager, I broke down on the road, that didn't seem to matter. I wasn't on vacation and I was only a few miles from home. Maybe if I was from out of town, they may have given me preference. Owner of dealership asked me if I had an extended...

    My Spyder F3 broke down on the road today

    Well, being the dummy that I am, I didn't even think of the front pulley or to take a look myself. I immediately thought "internal engine/transmission problem." I do my own oil changes, but didn't know to look at the pulley today. So off to the dealer it went. Thanks for responding though...

    Exhaust Question (Yes I know...)

    My 2015 Spyder F3 didn't sound too good when it broke down today. See my thread.:D

    My Spyder F3 broke down on the road today

    Well I kinda hope you are right. That doesn't sound too costly. Hopefully it's not the entire transmission. Thanks!

    My Spyder F3 broke down on the road today

    2015 Spyder F3 SE6 with 18,700 miles. Was doing 45-50 MPH in 6th gear. Seemed to slip out of gear, pulled over, tried reverse it tried to go, check engine light came on. Sounded like gears grinding. Engine starts. "E" on display. Won't shift gears. Had tow truck take it to dealer. Dealer...

    BajaRon F3 anti-sway bar

    So the swaybar thread turned into a tire thread. I have over 17,000 miles on my 2015 F3. Stock swaybar. I still can't come to terms that changing one steel bar for another one will do one iota of difference.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I re-registered mine and put a new registration sticker on the license plate.

    Sway bar?

    I have a 2015 F3. I will not be changing the sway bar. I can remember someone on here being smart to me and telling me I " would have to take it real slow on the twisties" with the stock sway bar. Then I saw that that same person sold her Spyder, new swaybar and all, and got a Harley. So...

    $200 for an oil change?

    Shell Rotella T6 meets JASO MA/MA2 specs so it is safe for wet clutch. $23.00 gal at Walmart. K&N oil filter with all o rings from Bajaron $19.95 and he ships fast. Won't pay the $90.00 for the oil change kit at the dealer again and certainly won't have the dealer do my oil change. I believe...

    No More Cat Delete for Me

    I changed the exhaust, intake and fuel/air controller for more sound on the 2006 Harley Road King I used to own. Then I grew up.

    What's the deal with closing the F3 Gas cap!?

    I have an RV with a slide out. Occasionally I put RV slide out lube on the rubber seals of the slide out so it slides in and out easily and protects the seals. I put a little bit of that on my fingers, put it on the rubber seal of my F3 gas cap months ago, and it works fine. Still haven't had...

    F3 Model Considered Best Value

    That guy gave it away. My 2015 F3 base with 14000 miles is worth more than that.
