• 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.

    Led headlights

    Get 'em from Lamonster. They are supposedly designed for the F-3 headlight housing. Like someone already posted, not all LEDs are created equal. If you do any research on LEDs, you will find halogen housings are not made for LEDs.

    Rear tire. yes another thread

    My dealer sells Kenda. Since I don't have the know how or the equipment to mount and balance the rear tire, that's where I went. I don't trust any other tire place to have the knowledge to change the tire on a Can Am Spyder. And! More importantly, I support my local dealer when I can to help...

    replace or not to replace, that is the question

    I vote for not to replace. When I bought my truck, I didn't immediately seek to replace the tires, get a laser alignment, replace the front end sway bar or replace the shocks. But what do I know?:)

    Kenda rear tire

    My dealer only installs his tires he sells to the customer. Since I don't have the know how or the equipment to mount and balance a tire, I must go to the dealer.

    No More Cat Delete for Me

    Been there done that with a Harley Davidson. Everybody, including me, just has to change the exhaust, air intake, power commander, dyno blah blah blah. Those days are long over for me. Stock it is.

    Gas Cap so difficult to close and lock

    I thought about the keyless gas cap FOR ABOUT 60 SECONDS. Then I decided a locking gas cap is best. Just think if they sold Spyders with keyless gas caps. Some entrepreneur would come out with a locking one and everybody would buy it. We seem to want what we don't have. Get some silicone...

    Rear tire cost info for anyone that wants to know

    No issue and no complaint for me here. I was just providing information for anyone who wanted to know the cost of a rear tire and its installation.

    Rear tire cost info for anyone that wants to know

    Went to my garage and found my rear tire flat with a screw in it. 2015 Spyder F3. Tire was the original stock tire and had 14,333 miles on it. Dealer said he wouldn't plug it and said he would only replace it. I plugged it myself to get to the dealer, but didn't trust it for the long haul...

    Low speed rubbing noise

    I have a 2015 F3 SE6. At slow speeds I hear a rubbing noise. It rubs and stops, rubs and stops and continues until I stop. I checked my tire pressure all is ok. I suspected my belt tensioner (idler pulley). Took that off and the problem is still there. The belt looks ok and I don't see any...

    Easy bracket and saddlebag question

    I have the same setup on my 2015 F3. They are "Leatherworks" bags on Easy Brackets. The side that mounts to the Easy Brackets are hard side (leather covered metal). To the original poster: You need a hard side bag to mount to the Easy Brackets. I was unaware of any weight restriction with Easy...

    Lamonster LED kit

    I have Lamonster's LED headlights on my 2015 F3 base model. Knowing what I know now about putting LEDs in halogen housings, I would never do it again. LEDs need a specially designed projector, NOT A HALOGEN HOUSING.

    LED Headlight Kit - Has Anyone Used This Kit ?

    I have Lamonster's. They are ok, but I did a test with my wife driving towards me at night. She said they were too bright. Other oncoming traffic did not flash their lights at me, so I don't know. I shined the lights on the garage door. Seems to be some stray light. Knowing what I know now...

    Brake pads

    Has anyone changed out their own brake pads? I have just over 13000 miles on my 2015 F3. I looked at the front pads and I am not sure if they need changing, but they look close. I think I am going to tackle the job myself. Any comments would be appreciated.
