• 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.

    2023 rumors - anyone heard anything about the 2023 release?

    Watched the release video. Not a lot of info, but nice colors for the new F3's, that is if you like blues.

    SPYDER F3-S SPECIAL SERIES - pre-purchase questions?

    First service 3000 miles. Break-in 600 miles, no hard braking for first 200 miles. As for mods, more lights are always a good thing. First thing I did to my 22 F3 Limited Special was add the Spyclops LED. Very simple added visibility for just over 50 bucks!

    F3L vs RTL comparison questions - any input?

    I have the 2022 F3 Limited special series and wife the 2021 RT limited. Definitely more wind on the F3, at least with stock windshield. That will be among my first mods. Wind isn't bad at road speeds but at interstate speeds I find more buffeting than I'd like. I prefer the sitting in of the F3...

    Gear selector frequently won't manually change on F3 - ideas?

    On the way to sell my 2020 F3 S Special downshifting my reverse stopped working. The guy that bought mine said he was able to open it up and clean connections or something and got it working. Upshifting worked fine with paddle, just any downshift action would not. Auto-downshifting worked fine

    Free Spyder? No - need suggestions for a backrest on F3 Ltd?

    OK OK Apologies for the title, but I got your attention. LOL. I am the proud owner of a brand new F3 Limited Special Series. This bike comes with a comfort seat. Because the BRP backrest is not available, and looks like it never will be, I am looking at some aftermarket driver backrests. I had...

    Anyone received their 2022 Spyder or news on Delivery, Delays, & Omissions?

    Sold my 2020 F3-S Special. Picking up my upgrade tomorrow, F3 Limited Special Series. Wanted something with more storage for touring and the radio is a huge plus. The wife and 2 kids and I plan to take more riding vacations.

    Seat installation dilemma

    Not sure what F3 you have but on my 2020 F3-S Special Series I have a small lockable and removable trunk and 2 piece seat. The trunk removes/installs just like the passenger seat, with a press and twist of the key like when opening frunk. I have the BRP passenger backrest as well that is super...

    Why are so many not using Daytime Driving Lights?

    I absolutely agree! When only a few people and motorcycles had DRL they stood out more. Now with virtually everything on the road having DRL we are not so unique, and folks get accustomed to it

    Inspection stickers - where do you put them?

    In Louisiana we just carry them with registration and insurance paperwork. They do not have to be visible but motorcycles are required to have them.

    IT's Almost SEMA Time

    Actually Wikipedia'ed it LOL. I find myself often reading Wikipedia, usually following links in articles down many rabbit holes. :roflblack: When I saw this thread I knew I had heard that name but couldn't think where or when so had to look him up. As they say, inquiring minds want to know!

    Comfort / Ergonomics for 6'01" 32" inseam 300lb rider on 19 - 21 RTL?

    Our size is virtually the same, same height and inseam although I have you by a few pounds. For me the F3 with position 5 brake rod is much more comfortable. My wife has a '21 RTL, but I much prefer my F3S. I do have knees that protest at being bent too far for too long. I find the brake pedal...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Rode my Spyder on a journey over 200 miles for the first time. Definitely dealt with a sore backside! I suspect my weight (pushing 350 lbs) contributes to that. I am riding on a cannonball seat and using an Airhawk cushion. And still trying to find that happy place of amount of air in Airhawk...

    Phone mount recommendations

    For my plus size iPhone Pro Max and the suit of armor (Otterbox Defender case) it wears, the RAM mount large X-grip is the phone mount of choice for me. Mounted using a U-bolt, I love the versatility in positioning. The tether adds a little extra peace of mind.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    For the wife's RTL and my F3-S Special, added Spyclops light under hood lip on each bike. Installed her TricLED sequential fender LED's. In the process of installing mine, but do have one bad LED that TricLED is replacing.

    TricLED Sequential fenders from ValueAccessories.net

    Update Further testing revealed the left amber LED that came with my kit is bad. Cindy with TricLED is working on resolving issue. I certainly appreciate their efforts on a Saturday! Hopefully I will have a replacement quickly.

    Thinking of adding Fender Lighting - input fm those who have?

    I just installed TricLED sequential fender LED's on my wife's 2021 RTL and am in process of installing same on my 2020 F3-S Special. Taking fenders off and then putting back on is a bit of a chore, but not terribly bad. A second set of hands is huge help. I do have an issue with one amber LED...
