• 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.

    Latest BRP Safety Bulletins for Shaft Replacement (2019-12) and Shaft & Sprocket Replacement (2019-13) Recalls - Jan 2025

    Must be nice to make $200.00 an hour.

    Latest BRP Safety Bulletins for Shaft Replacement (2019-12) and Shaft & Sprocket Replacement (2019-13) Recalls - Jan 2025

    What are they charging you per hour for labor? $463.00 seems a little high for 1 hour labor and the bearing. I'd be questioning the price of the bearing.

    HELP! I threaded the transmission hex bolt! Will JB Weld help get it out?? What else might work?

    Exactly what bolt are you talking about. Maybe a picture would help us, help you. To do an oil change there are two drain plugs to drain all the oil. No other bolts need to be removed. So please clarify for us.

    When is BRP going to do the right thing and be consistent when it comes to recalls. Some are replacing oil and HCM filters, some are not. Some are replacing antifreeze, and some aren't. This is driving me nuts, as dealers don't know what to change and what not to change. Some dealers are...

    Latest BRP Safety Bulletins for Shaft Replacement (2019-12) and Shaft & Sprocket Replacement (2019-13) Recalls - Jan 2025

    I haven't changed mine as of yet, but I think the filter is on the right hand side. Same side as where you check your oil level.

    Spyder clocks are a joke.

    In Arkansas you need the M endorsement

    Latest BRP Safety Bulletins for Shaft Replacement (2019-12) and Shaft & Sprocket Replacement (2019-13) Recalls - Jan 2025

    I kind of have that same saying, if not broke don't fix it. I have a 2017 F3 L with right around 15000 miles that is in the recall. When the recall came out about the front sprocket recall, I looked at my front sprocket and there was no red dust anywhere. Then I heard nightmare stories about...

    Anywhere to get an F3-T Alignment in the middle of TN area? Or any other effective alignment method?

    Did BajaRon get one? I thought he was talking about it at some time go.

    Yeah I took mine in yesterday and that's what said also. The bike has to be in the shop before parts are ordered. I told them that I wanted about 5 recalls done before mine get in, that way they are more familar of how and what needs to be done. I don't want to be the first one for them to...

    Latest BRP Safety Bulletins for Shaft Replacement (2019-12) and Shaft & Sprocket Replacement (2019-13) Recalls - Jan 2025

    I thought the same same. If a Spyder has a defective output shaft, then it should be replaced no matter what the mileage is. I think that is a dumb thing for BRP to do to limit the recall to mileage. If any Spyder manufactured within those years, should automatically fall under the recall, no...

    Recall - 2017-2019 RT and F3 Engine Output Shaft Can Break!

    This does not make sense to me about the mileage. I own a 2017 F3 Limited and it has less than 21748 miles. So I'm in the recall limits. So if I had a F3 with 22000 miles the recall does not effect this bike. So what I'm taking from all this is that if you above the mileage limits your...

    F3-T third service at ~15k miles

    I also do my own oil & filter changes. I get my oil, Amsoil and oil filter kit for Baja Ron. Have for years. Changing the oil & filter is not rocket science, it's actually pretty easy.

    F3s Travel cover needed - any recommendations on which is best?

    I personally would not cover your bike with a cover when traveling. It will scratch the paint especially on a utility trailer.

    Does anyone leave the parking brake off during winter storage? And some rodent protection discussion...

    I really haven't given that much thought. I have always applied the parking brake when in my garage. I have done that with the 3 Spyders I have owned over the years. I also keep them on a battery maintainer when in the garage. I've never had a problem with the brake not releasing. So what...

    What Communication devices do you use between rider/pillion & other riders in your group?

    The group I ride with uses the Cardo Edge. I think they have better & clearer sound than the Sena's

    Any ideas on what might cause this abrupt loss of power?

    Question: Did you just fill up with gas when this happened? If so, it might be bad gas you got. It doesn't matter what grade of gas you put in your Spyder as all under ground gas tanks can get water in them. You may also have a clogged fuel filter. Another thing to do is have your battery...

    My good friend, Cruzr Joe, died today - Nov 21, 2024

    Such sad news. I first meet Joe & his wife at a Spyderfest Rally in 2015. Such a funny & great guy. RIP my friend.

    New Spyder sold with no factory warranty - is this right? What say you all?

    Unless the dealership registered for demo purposes, you should have 2 years of warranty that comes with a new purchase. If the dealership registered the Spyder, then the warranty started when it was registered. I think you should be asking more questions. In other words, ask questions or...
