• 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's YOUR Number One Favorite, Model & Year, of Spyder you'd own given the chance?

    It all started for me back in 2013 when I bought my first Spyder, an 2012 RTS. I then moved up to a 2015 RTS with the new 1330 engine. On both of the RTS's, I felt cramped, as I'm fairly tall at 6' 1" and I have long legs. So after those 2 RTS's, I finally found my perfect Spyder, a 2017 F3...

    Do you think there's an F3 update coming for 2026?

    I am ready for a little different look also. I also love my 2017 F3L.

    Latest BRP Safety Bulletins for Shaft Replacement (2019-12) and Shaft & Sprocket Replacement (2019-13) Recalls - Jan 2025

    Well, I reluctantly put my 2017 F3 Limited in the shop to have the output shaft & front sprocket recall done. My Spyder has almost 20,000 miles and had no evidence of red rust on my front pulley in all those miles. If it ain't broke, don't fix it is my attitude, but I thought that if I ever want...

    Anyone purchased from an out of town dealer? Is this common? Any concerns?

    I have bought 2 Spyders from iMotorsports in Illinois and each time I had a trade in. Also had free shipping on both new Spyders. It was a very smooth transaction and they gave me a fair price on my trade in both times. I would buy from them again. Plus they also have the best price in the...

    Do People Get Thrown Off of Spyders?

    I also have 2 motorcycles, one being a Spyder F3 Limited and the other a Triumph Thunderbird, and I don't have any problem switching from one bike to the other. I don't see any problem with doing that.

    Do I really need to Change O-Rings at Every Oil Change? Do you?

    I change mine every time I do an oil change. I do save the old o-rings just for an emergency situation. What are you saving by not changing the oil o-rings, a few dollars. I'd rather be safe than sorry. Just my 2 cents.

    Considering a Spyder - Can I Ask You Some Questions?

    After you decide on which model pleases both of, you may want to look at iMotorsports in Elmhurst, IL. They have a website for new and used Spyders. They even have free shipping on most bikes they sell. I have bought two Spyders from them with trade-ins both times. They are easy to deal with. As...

    What are your Phone Holder Preferences? Brand/style & placement?

    That is where I have my Quad Lock installed but not against the left handgrip. I have mine maybe an inch or so from the handgrip. Maybe your Kenda tires are to blame for the vibrations.

    What are your Phone Holder Preferences? Brand/style & placement?

    I have been using the Quad Lock for a while now and just finished an 8 day 3400 mile ride with friends and the phone never moved. Excellent phone holder.

    Anyone want to ride to Three Sisters in Texas?

    Funny that you mentioned riding Twisted Sisters as I'm leaving Arkansas with 3 other riders to that area. Leaving this Friday the 23rd. We are also traveling to New Mexico and then on the return home, riding in southern Colorado. Will be gone for a week.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Well I got a trip planned at the end of the month and I needed to flush the brake fluid in my 2017 F3L. So today I installed speed bleeders of my F3. My gosh, that makes the process so much easier. What was a two man job turned into a one man job. So glad I installed them. Then I replaced the...

    2025 Demo rides are on their way!!

    Today I went to a Can-Am demo ride at FRS Powersports in Memphis, Tn. I had signed up for it earlier last month. Today I rode a Sea 2 Sky. I was not impressed. I still feel somewhat cramped on the Sky. I am 6'1" with long legs. I have owned 2 RT's in the past, a 2012 & a 2015. The ride is more...

    Almost back in the saddle - who else is still here from 2012-13?

    I'm still here. I did not see that MIke (Blueknight911) passed away. When did this happen?

    Latest BRP Safety Bulletins for Shaft Replacement (2019-12) and Shaft & Sprocket Replacement (2019-13) Recalls - Jan 2025

    What are they charging you per hour for labor? $463.00 seems a little high for 1 hour labor and the bearing. I'd be questioning the price of the bearing.
