• 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.

    Has anyone removed/modified the Airbox on an F3 to improve intake airflow? Ideas?

    Thanks, Just thinking of the small filter area, as well as making servicing much easier in the future. I'll probably install a K&N filter at the least, and I may see if I can fabricate a duct to direct fresh air from outside the bodywork to the inlet. I does seem to suffer from a bit of heat...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Thanks.

    Has anyone removed/modified the Airbox on an F3 to improve intake airflow? Ideas?

    I did a search, but didn't see anything similar. Has anyone removed the huge airbox on the F3S and installed a duct and conical filter to increase filter area and get cooler air into the throttle body? I notice my IAT often runs 10 degrees hotter than ambient air, and getting that huge bulky...

    What does a F2P module do that you can't already do with the dimmer switch?

    Saw this in a hotel in Florida. :eek: 🤣🤣🤣

    Do I need to pull the whole box to properly fit this Airbox tube?

    Looks like there's enough access to pop the grommet back into place. A dull screwdriver or putty knife may help.

    Considering a Spyder - Can I Ask You Some Questions?

    I think it was around 2020 that they dropped the manual, hence, I'll never have a newer Spyder than that. None of my "recreational" vehicles are automatics, except for my motor-coach, which for some reason is actually called an RV. :unsure: It just gets the real RV's to the track. :cool:🤣

    Considering a Spyder - Can I Ask You Some Questions?

    Agreed. The Spyder isn't a threat to even a small sportbike. 🤣

    Some of us still have a proper clutch and shifter. ;)

    Considering a Spyder - Can I Ask You Some Questions?

    I don't think I'd have a problem keeping up with any Spyder on a sportbike. LOL

    Two hot brake questions: EBC sintered pads whoosh noise, and either rotor or bearing noise.

    Drilled/slotted discs often have a characteristic sound, usually a whirring or humming under light braking. I even hear it on my cars that are so equipped. Try this. Ride a couple miles without using the brakes, and stop with very minimal braking.Then check the brake disc temp with an IR temp...

    Considering a Spyder - Can I Ask You Some Questions?

    Having ridden both bikes and ATV's for years, I had little trouble with steering. My biggest hurdle was learning not to reach for the front brake. 🤣

    If you had 4 days to ride in Michigan, what Must See Rides are there/do you recommend?

    I second that. I've been to the Henry Ford Museum twice so far, spent 2 full days there and still haven't seen it all. It's fascinating, especially for a gearhead. (y) :cool:

    Has anyone added Marvel Mystery Oil - any comments?

    I'm referring to adding it to the OIL, not the fuel. Adding a top cylinder lubricant to fuel is a common practice on methanol motors, and doesn't harm the oil.

    Has anyone added Marvel Mystery Oil - any comments?

    I'd stay away from any oil additives. Lubrication engineers do lots of research and testing to develop an oil's formulation. Thinking that you know better how to make motor oil isn't likely to turn out well.

    How can I leave the parking brake off when parked in the garage?

    I leave mine without the parking brake all the time. I've never heard it beep unless I shift it into gear and try to pull away with the parking brake set. Is this something only the automatic Spyders do?
