• 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.

    HCM filter replacement overdue - which panels need to come off?

    I have an F-3S and the HCM filter cover is behind the brake pedal. It should be the same on your RT since both have the 1330 engines. Make sure you drain the oil from both oil plugs first or you will have a lot of oil come out of that filter. And you don’t need BUDS to do it.

    Won’t go in reverse or manually downshift

    It is possible that the problem is with the reverse lockout switch. If you look on the left side of your Spyder you will see the switch that hangs down at an angle. You might have to remove a panel to see it. I have an F3 and mine is easy to see. It has been replaced twice.

    How hard is it to replace an Upper Ball Joint?

    My upper ball joint needs replacing on my right front wheel. Has anyone done this themselves? Is it difficult? I have ordered the parts from Cheap Cycle Parts but am torn as to if I can do it myself or have the dealer do it.

    Lost my jacket liner - replacement possible?

    I have a beautiful Can-Am jacket that my employees gave me for retirement three years ago. Yesterday I lost the inner liner that I had strapped on my dry bag. I thought the straps were tight enough but the liner flew off on the freeway and I didn’t realize it until a few miles down the road...

    Hate to be a party pooper but...

    Greg regarding Laser alignment, Extreme Propulsion in Cartersville does Laser alignments. They aligned my new ‘2015 F3-S when I bought it over five years ago and did a great job. Check your tire pressures, use a loose grip on the bars, get a Laser alignment and BajaRon’s bar and I think you...

    2021 RTL - SE6 wont shift!? Any clues how to fix?

    It sounds to me like it is the reverse actuator switch. When it goes bad it won’t shift into any gear. I have had mine replaced twice.

    Hard braking pulls right! Anyone else? Ideas?

    It could be a warped rotor or brake pads wearing unevenly.

    What's BajaRon's Price for Amsoil? Worth it?

    red dust on front sprocket - what do I tell the dealer?

    I have had three front sprockets replaced by three different dealers. None had failed at the time. All showed the red dust and I said “I want a new sprocket and bolt.” All were replaced during my extended warranty. If I have to have a fourth sprocket it will be on my dime.
