• 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.

    Any suggestions on Travel Cover for F3 Ltd with top case & saddlebags?

    I have located a few on-line. However, one sounded too inexpensive ($40-$50) that I was skeptical and haven't purchased. But my assumption is that a very light cover, e.g. made of parachute cloth type of material, may be fine to cover in a parking lot for the night. The feedback on the lighter...

    Added handlebar riser to my F3L. Changed handling - a surprise?

    I think you will like it. The installation was easy also.

    Added handlebar riser to my F3L. Changed handling - a surprise?

    As on a previous 2-wheeler, I wanted to raise the handlebars a bit for my height. The install is easy. A pleasant surprised for me was that this more comfortable riding position seemed to make the F3 handle better. Apparently reaching further for the handlebars, made me lock my elbows and...

    Anyone Replaced the standard F3 L seat? Tried Diamond seats?

    I found the original F3 L seat to be quite uncomfortable for me for even a 1-hr ride. At 6'4" and 230 lbs it doesn't support my size adequately. I was looking at a few possible replacement options: - the BRP replacement "Cannonball Comfort Seat" #219400497 - mixed reviews and currently...

    F3 handlebar riser install - is there enough OE cable?

    Is there enough cable standard on the F3 (2021) to install the handlebar riser without a problem with cable/control lengths?

    BRP GO - Bluetooth not working fx? Lemon Law or Class Action Lawsuits?

    Yes Can-Am bluetooth works from my iPhone fine for playing music. I have used it for both playing via my 2021 F3 speakers and BT headset. This works fine and I can stop, or advance to next song etc using the controls on the bike. The issue I had was when I was using Rever GPS. As soon as my...

    How do you Glasses wearers manage with Helmet & Glasses?

    I have a modular helmet, HJC in my case, but it fit's so tight against my cheeks that I have to put glasses on first, then helmet. The helmet fits fine and HJC has always fit the best. But the HJC just has a tight face fit making it difficult to put the helmet on prior to glasses.

    Power / USB switched vs unswitched?

    Looks like a good setup. The mirror locations on the F3 seem less than ideal to me. Ideally I would like to have them further out. But the way the are is adequate and if I block a bit of the inside portion of the mirror, nothing is lost except that I can't see my elbow as clearly. :shocked: I...

    Power / USB switched vs unswitched?

    I see your point about finding a good mounting location for the accessories. Since I'm 6'3" I can see over some of the mounting locations. Yet positioning a drink holder, GPS and USB/Lighter sockets, I had to choose carefully. Currently the GPS blocks the right turn signal indicator unless I set...

    Power / USB switched vs unswitched?

    My GPS on my 2021 F3L plugged into the glove box connector was a problem. Using that connector the F3 tries to connect like it was a phone and caused errors on the GPS. My GPS then failed, and I don't know whether this Spyder connection played a role. But I was suspect. So I wanted a separate...

    Can't shift from N while rolling?

    Thanks for the comments. Apparently the key is pressing the brake pedal a bit and not necessarily coming to a full stop.

    Can't shift from N while rolling?

    An interesting thing today, or I may have have learned something I should have known? While waiting for a train at a RR crossing. I put it in neutral because I wanted to stand up to stretch my legs and arms but didn't want to accidently hit the throttle. The road was sloped downward and when...

    What does it take to Remove the Dealer Decals on my F3?

    Thanks for all the help / suggestions. I used a small amount of heat from a hair dryer and they all pulled off quite easily with no sticky residue left behind. :2thumbs:

    What does it take to Remove the Dealer Decals on my F3?

    I would rather not have the dealer decal on my F3. There are 4 of them and, no offense or disrespect to the dealer, but I don't want them on my bike. Do you have any experience in removing one of these decals? Can they just be pulled off? Is there sticky goo underneath that has to be removed...

    Installed 7000 lumins Fog Lights on my 2021 F3 Limited

    Installed the LED headlight upgrade. Here's a pic of one headlight replaced and the other still original.

    Installed 7000 lumins Fog Lights on my 2021 F3 Limited

    I agree, thats the point about adding lights. They are equally or even more important during the daytime as a way to be seen by other drivers.

    Installed 7000 lumins Fog Lights on my 2021 F3 Limited

    Interesting Peter, But remember that I was getting 0 lumens before I installed these ;) A complete discussion would need to include CRI (color rendering index), color temperature (how white is the light), and as you mentioned, Lumens.

    Installed 7000 lumins Fog Lights on my 2021 F3 Limited

    Today I installed a set of fog lights on my F3. I'm of the opinion that more lights and more visibility is good. I also didn't like to look of the empty places where they are meant to go. I looked around and ended up with 41-303A - CAN-AM F3 7000 LMNS FOG LIGHTS from Big Bike Parts. Install...

    How about some ideas for cup / bottle holders? F3-T 2021

    Is she a driver or passenger? I just installed a Kustom Kaddy (also called Kruzer Kaddy 750) for the driver. I have in on the right side. I would describe it as "Adequate but not ideal". I also added a Kemimoto ATV cup holder onto the passenger grab rail. It came with a little rubber pad that...
