• 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.

    Is it worth fitting SpyderExtras Billet Aluminum Belt Tensioner/Idler?

    Thanks, Troop! Does the tensioner prevent problems or is it designed to correct a problem? I'm not entirely sure from the description of the products. Thanks.

    New group - Eastern Panhandle West Virginia Can Am Owners

    Hey, Duke - I'd be happy to go ride with you. I hear you on Mem Weekend. I'm just getting home from the wall and I'm exhausted. It always drains me to see those names (I know 6 on the panels). Everyone I served with is gone now so I try to go and pay respects just like every other year...

    New group - Eastern Panhandle West Virginia Can Am Owners

    1 reply and I'm not sure why they replied. I asked what year/model spyder they owned, and they sent me a blank reply. Of course, I got a 0 attendance list. I put up another one for June - same day, same time, same place, and asked that if people needed a different day/time/place, I'm open...

    Raising the front end for sway bar Remove & Refit - how exactly?

    Cheeseologist - I absolutely appreciate that offer! it's a 6+hour trip in each direction. If I had enough moto to make that trip, I would. There have been a few really good suggestions here about how to get this installed; it doesn't seem difficult - it's just a matter of planning it. I'm pretty...

    What is MotoBatt 12V AGM Battery like for my F3?

    Hypurone - SOME LOVE THE BEACH! That's a pricey battery! I went from crap units to a $189 YUASA. The Shorai LFX36A3 lists for $319USD! The weight savings is great, as is the power level (what is the CCA of this unit?) but what kind of lifespan is it? If I'm throwing down 3+ bills for it I have...

    HowTo: F3T Handlebar Mirrors

    Nice fab! If those mirrors are that useless for you, why not remove them? Get some fiberglass panels and fab an aero shape (or just cover the openings over flat) and color-match the body paint (or do something creative with the color and maybe add turn signal indicators in it...) I've heard from...

    Outside Air Temperature Sensor reads high - Why? Any fixes?

    GR - I think the point that Peter was making was that it was designed as a sensor temp used as a runnable parameter for the ECU (making quasi-AI decisions about how to run the motor), and that marketing and sales got hold of the fact that the sensor was tracking this data point and thought that...

    What is MotoBatt 12V AGM Battery like for my F3?

    Pirate - Wow. I didn't know that BRP supplied Yuasa! Mine certainly didn't have one in it. But the first time I got the 'separation anxiety' groan on trying to start Estelle, I yanked that junk box out and went straight up to Battery Mart and got a much higher quality unit (Yuasa). Starts on one...

    Yay/Nay/NA on a Mo-Door Garage Door Opener?

    Lew - I don't subscribe to using the automatic garage door opener function in my trucks simply because, if the truck is stolen, the thief now has access to your house, too. In the case of the Spyder, I understand the convenience factor. I keep my opener for one of the doors in my pocket and when...

    Is it worth fitting SpyderExtras Billet Aluminum Belt Tensioner/Idler?

    Thanks for the responses Mikey. Pirate, and Mike... I have read a few stories about a failed tensioner. Not pretty. Part of why I asked this question before throwing down the ~$200USD for one. It would be interesting to know if anyone on the forum used one and then removed it. I've not felt any...

    Get a Battery Jump Start Port or a Power Brick?

    Went through SlingMods this morning, since it's Memorial Day and the wife told me to pick something out for myself...
