• 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.

    Top speed

    Dray, Don't worry it will run plenty fast, in fact when the F-3's first come out, 160 mph was possible according to reports on Youtube! Now they set the computers to hold the speed down for safety reasons and lawsuits! I have had my F-3 Limited up to 115 mph and it had some room leftover...

    Fuel octane explained.

    I run 87 and add additives, every time I am on the road I get bad gas with water in it when I buy the high test gas! Very few cars and trucks run the high test gas now days, so on the road you can get some bad gas! Sometimes at home I will buy high test because I know the best gas station to...

    Open Topcase warning?

    Check to make sure both sides of your top case lid is shutting down into the correct position. My left side always misses the correct lockdown unless I push down on the left side. This might solve your problem!

    RT Limited to F3 Limited?

    We went from 2016 RT Limited to a 2018 F3 Limited last year! We love the F3 better, the RTL would make my right hip get out of joint due to the way the floorboards were turned and my feet were up under me! The F3 allows your feet to be out in front of you like riding a Harley, and no hip...

    Vibration in the handlebars normal?

    I had a 2016 RT Limited that did the same thing! I carried it to two dealers and neither one of them could fix it! I order two front tires like the one's Spyder Ann uses and had them put on my front rims at a tire store and had them "Trued" and then balanced! Problem solved! The word 'Trued"...

    Sweating the small stuff Yes, to all of the above, but the author of the book "Don't sweat the small stuff, it's all small stuff, died in his early 40's as best I remember! I am a worrier also, so I sweat the small stuff, and I am on my third Spyder! I have had some small problems with all...

    Yes to the control modules problems Yes, the control modules are a serious problem on the 2018 year models! My F3 Limited is 9 months old, and the control module on the left handlebar has been replaced twice, and the right side once! This is my third Spyder ( 2013 RTL, 2016 RTL, and 2018 F3L)...

    Help with my purchase please. 2009 GS SM5

    Buy you a nearer Spyder (2014 up) and it will have the 1330 engine in it, if it is a F3 or RT. This what everyone wants, and you will like it a lot better. With prices where they are, the 2014 and up will not cost you that much more! I made that mistake and bought a 2013 with the 998 engine...

    Parking Brake

    Welcome to the $30,000 club! It look like BRP would recognize the brake issue and fix it with a part from a differ part supplier. Spyders are number 10 on the reliability list! We are not going to increase sales in the US for Spyders until BRP steps up and delivers us a quality Spyder! I get...

    What's up with these 2018 RTL's

    Leaking antifreeze Check your antifreeze jug! On my 2016 RTL, the jug was not seal together in the middle of the jug by the manufacture! It would not leak until you rode it a while and the antifreeze built up to the half way mark! To keep from having to deal with BRP on the warranty, I just...
