• 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.

    Garmin Zumo XT - how readable; mountable; & lockable are they?

    I have a 2016 F3T and am thinking about a GPS I have read the reviews and other information about the XT. I have a couple of questions: Is it really easy to read the screen during sunny days? Where have most of the users mounted it? Is there a type of lock that can be installed so it can be...

    June's Weather News

    Well our son and grandson brought our f3's to us today. I just got back from about a 50 mile ride. The neck is a little sore but nothing I can't handle, gotta keep working on getting it stronger. Just beat the rain by about a minute. Got backed into the garage, turned the spyder off and the rain...

    June's Weather News

    Well I don't care what the weather will be like on Saturday the 25th cause I'm going riding! This morning my spine surgeon took off the hard cervical collar that I have been wearing since May 12th due to surgery. He x-rayed my neck said all looks fine and in one week I can finally start my...

    Anyone haul 2 RTLs or F3Ls? Utility or Cargo trailers?

    Not sure a 16 foot trailer would work. We use a 7x18 v-nose enclosed trailer to transport our two F3Ls. It gives us a little bit of room so I'm not worried about them rubbing on anything. We use straps on four locations on each bike and they don't move at all.

    May 2022 Weather News

    Well the weather here in Minnesota has been in the 60's and 70's for the most part, perfect weather for riding as far as I'm concerned. However since I had the cervical spine fusion surgery on C5 thru C7 on the 12th, I have to wait for another 5 weeks before the hard cervical collar comes off...

    I guess you could call this a close shave

    I agree with you BajaRon cause I don't know how many near misses I had with a squad car with lights and siren activated. Here in Minnesota a 16 year old kid pulled out from a stop sign turned left in front of a motorcycle and killed the rider. People don't see us and have way too many...

    May 2022 Weather News

    Well here in Minnesota it's going to start getting nice and dry with temps in the upper 60's. That's the good news. The bad news is that on May 12th I'm going to have Anterior Cervical Decompression Fusion Corpectomy surgery and will be laid up for at least 2 months. My spinal column is in bad...

    Will this Enclosed trailer fit both an RT and an F3L?

    We have a 7x19 v-nose that we haul 2 F3L`s in. We back them in so that the second ones trunk is over the first ones nose. That gives us about 4 inches of room all the way around the bikes. There are 6 tied down rings in the floor and the bikes are nice and immobile. We did put a hard plastic...

    Daylight Savings Time

    Many states have passed legislation to stay permanently on DST contingent on the federal government passing similar legislation. Minnesota passed it and the legislation states it will be enacted upon federal law enacted as such.

    Time for a hiatus.

    You both are in our thoughts and prayers. Make sure you take care of yourself also as the care giver (I'm speaking from first hand experience).

    Looking for a technique to get to the rear tires valve stem - anyone?

    Has anyone put on the 90 degree extension? If so how much clearance do you have from the wheel to the brake caliper or belt depending on which side you have it facing?

    Has anyone given their Spyder a "Name"???

    Freedom, because that is what it gives me.

    Ultimate and Corbin seat FITMENT - not comfort

    My wife and I both have the Ultimate Tall Boy seat on our F3Ls. They both fit great and we have no complaints about fit or finish. Have had Russell seats and Cannonball. The Ultimate tall boy seat is by far the best seat in our opinion.
