• 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.

    F3 Front Sprocket Inspection

    Sprocket Roadster, it's interesting that you say that since I forwarded all the data I collected to them and haven't heard anything back. Maybe they're getting ready to come out with a TSB or a Recall. A recall with a good permanent fix would be great.. Ride on everyone!

    F3 Front Sprocket Inspection

    Sprocket I still haven't heard back from BRP about all the info I sent them, I'm going to give it a few more day's and resend! In the mean time the Moly lube is the best bet if you're fortunate enough not to had yours wear out. Mine I know is in good shape so I'm going to pull my sprocket and...

    F3 Front Sprocket Inspection

    Sprocket install I just checked the Spyder F3 manual I have and it doesn't show which side goes out, just said to install exactly as it was removed, using new bolt and to torque to 92 lb ft. :dontknow::dontknow: Lamont time for you to weigh in on the correct install if you have it, I'm sure...

    F3 Front Sprocket Inspection

    Sprocket I've sent an email to BRP with a list of people who have responded to me with this issue and as of today, I haven't heard anything back, not to say I won't but just a matter of when and what kind of BS story will I get. I'll pass along any info BRP sends to me.:doorag:

    F3 Front Sprocket Inspection

    Bolt Spyd3r, you’re correct about the warranty cancellation IF the drilled bolt is there when and if it goes in the OEM bolt will be in place, sprocket doesn’t require drilling because of its design.

    F3 Front Sprocket Inspection

    Bolt Freddy, Sorry I missed your question, but the bolt turned about an 1/8 of an inch, I cleaned off the mark I had and put a new one on. I’ll keep a close eye on it, but I’m still installing a new bolt with safety wire.

    F3 Front Sprocket Inspection

    Sprocket There you go again, now you’re down to name calling, you jumped in on a thread that we had going concerning failed sprockets I’m trying to gather data to send to BRP to address an issue that affects all F3 owners, you included and you’ve had nothing to contribute other than negative...

    F3 Front Sprocket Inspection

    Sprocket Sarge, sounds like a good question to ask, could those that are having failure issues post the part number if it's available, mine is 2131 and so far no issue, but I am installing safety wire, it's from my old aircraft days, using 0.32 safety wire and I've already marked the bolt with...

    F3 Front Sprocket Inspection

    Sprocket Failure This could very well be a big part of the problem, I put a torque wrench on my bolt and got about an 1/8th of an inch turn before it hit the factory torque setting. My nephew is a supervisor at a machine shop so he's helping me out with the bolt, getting it drilled for the...

    Thread Sorry to add to your offensiveness, but there is an escape button or X out of the thread or just don't follow it at all. This isn't a perfect world we live in. If your that thin skinned and easily offended, as one poster said, "suck it up buttercup":p:yikes:

    F3 Front Sprocket Inspection

    Sprocket Road-Kill, Sounds like you need to get a hobby, you appear to be an overly analytical person. I'm happy for you that you're not having any problems with your bike, but I'm sure when this happens to your bike you'll be ranting and raving to BRP. This is how recalls and TSB's get...

    F3 Front Sprocket Inspection

    Front Sprocket Today I received a few more response's about front sprocket failures, all were SM6's. So this issue applies to all F3's, will it happen to all of them, hard to say, but it is an issue that BRP will need to address eventually. I'm sure that if there's any injuries or wrecks caused...

    F3 Front Sprocket Inspection

    Sproket I follow about 4 or 5 different Spyder forums and several Spyder facebook pages and I'm amazed at the number of folks that are having this issue, even Lamonster has had the problem with sprokets. I sent out a request on several facebook pages concerning the problem, I've had about 60...

    F3 Front Sprocket Inspection

    LINK Sorry Roadster Renovations, the link you posted isn't working. I searched as much as I could find, but it seems that there is nothing posted to narrow down the problem, loose bolt, bad sprocket, tranny main shaft or belt vibration. To me it sounds like a combination of things. Belt...

    F3 Front Sprocket Inspection

    Sprocket I'm a little confused by some of the comments on this thread, what is the problem here, the sprocket, the bolt or the tranny main shaft? Is the sprocket made from cheap metal, (ie) aluminum or is it steel and is it incorrectly made so it doesn't fit right, is the bolt the wrong grade...

    Penalized !! For owning a Spyder !!

    Insurance Hell, I've got everything with Allstate, House, 2 cars, 2 Harley's and 1 Spyder. I originally had Nationwide for everything, but when I got the Spyder I shopped around and Allstate was the cheapest with great coverage. Nationwide couldn't come close to the price and I'd been with them...
