• 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.

    Spyder sales

    I took my Spyder for its yearly oil change and checkup. Dealership said CanAM's are hot and really selling. I was surprised at how many they had in stock. On a separate note - I need to learn how to change oil in my ride. Jim

    First mods to my Special - are factory fogs worth the $$?

    I recently added foglights to my 2071 F3L and did a lot of research on what to buy, and I wanted to install myself. For me, Lamonster IPS lights were the best choice at $189 US dollars. I watched the video many times so I knew what I needed to do. It was very easy to install and tool about 45...

    Radar Detector Install - where; and any recommendations as to type?

    I thought the radar detectors were a thing of the past. I use Waze on my phone when I travel and it is spot on for finding speed traps, road hazards, etc. It's like having a CB from the 70's. Jim

    Switching to LED headlights this weekend

    Really excited to post - installation complete and not so bad. It took me about 1.5 hours to install, the most time consuming part was swapping out the lights. The wire harness/ring which holds the bulb in place was difficult to remove and then reattach. So some tips I learned today to help...

    Switching to LED headlights this weekend

    I bought LaMonster LED headlights and plan on installing them this weekend. I watched (many times) the videos from LaMonster and Slingmods on installation steps. I have an 2017 F3-Limited, any advice or gotchas to look out for? I installed fog lights a couple of weeks ago, that was easy...

    To those that switched from an 1330 Rt-s to an F3 limited

    I have an F3-Limited and love it. When I was doing test rides I did not like the sit on top feel of the RT, the sit down and in of the F3-Limited was more comfortable for me. My wife liked the comfort of the RT better as a passenger.

    What maps do you use?

    I use WAZE on my iPhone - excellent app. Tells you where the police are, hazards, accidents, etc. The downside is you need a phone mount on your Spyder. Jim

    F3T vs F3T-limited

    I have an F3-Limited and love it. I like it for the storage (top case, sides). On my model we do have floor boards, albeit small. The one thing I do not like is the switch on the top case is flaky and reports the case open even though it is not. The rider is great and it is enjoyable to ride...

    LaMonster IPS Fog lights for 2017 F3 Limited

    Removing stuck panel screws - any advice?

    Looking for some advice please. I want to add fog lights and led headlights to my 2017 FE-limited. Because I need to remove so many of the panels I am hesitant to undertake this myself. I watched the videos of Lamont switching things around to the point of almost having it memorized. My...

    Warranty question

    I have a warranty question I was not able to find addressed anywhere. I have a 2017 F3 Limited, purchased in June, 2018. When the original warranty is up will I receive notification of the expiration and possibly the choice to extend? Thanks in advance, Jim
