• 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.

    So many complaints about the Spyders. Anyone with no problems?

    Hope this one works out for you! I recently sold my 2018 F3 Limited with 79,0008 miles...I put on 75,000 of them and only had a few issues, none that ever caused me any major grief...can't say that about hubby's HD...his hydraulic clutch let us down a few times. I have a leftover 2023 F3L SES...

    2024 F3L - where are the fog lights? IS this a 2024?

    I have a leftover 2023 F3L Special Edition (bought 4/29/24) and while walking around the dealership waiting for my 3,000-mile service, discovered the 2024's don't have fog lights - sheesh... such a disappointment BRP took them away. I think you could do better selling yours outright. I recently...

    How can I confirm s/ware updates on Pre-purchase checklist were done?

    Just went out to garage and found my numbers - exactly the same as yours, Albec. I will check my Cruise Control in the next few days. I'm leaving on Thursday for a short trip; but may get a ride in on Wednesday and I could possibly check it tomorrow. Will let you know.

    Brand new F3 - Cruise Control and Sport Mode not working.

    My 2018 F3L does not have Sport Mode nor does my 2023 F3L. Yes, generic manuals might still say so, as some have indicated. 😁🤷🏼*♀️

    Issues with Kenda Tires or Not?

    I'm happy with the Kendas and honestly I get more mileage out of mine than hubby does on his Harley Ultra Limited...for the most part. I have 72,000 miles on my 2018 F3 Limited and have had fronts replaced at 22K (my bad...hit a rock and blew out side wall) 54K (it was time) and need new ones...

    Spyder owners are stuck up - why is this so?? Please explain...

    Rotax, I don't think Spyder owners are stuck up...when I see another Can-Am out on the road, I practically jump off my F3 and give them a hug...just kidding...but I wave at everyone, even when I'm in the car and forget I'm not on my Spyder. Hope you have had more positive experiences since this...

    Yes, thank you! I have very much so kept up with maintenance intervals and with the miles I'm putting on my girl, the miles come long before the dates lol...so far anyway! I think I had to change the oil 4 times in 2022, lol. Appreciate your input Bromla!

    What are the Highest Miles on your Spyder ?

    One Spyder ... How Many Miles? Hello, everyone! So, I've been wondering just how many miles a Spyder can have on it before any "big" mechanical issues happen. I know many of you have owned more than one Spyder and racked up many, many miles, but I'm interested in the most miles on a Spyder...

    ATGATT for me and for those hot days, an evaporative cooling vest helps a lot! I wear it under my airtex shirt with Level II armor...so the air flows through...really helps!

    What are the Highest Miles on your Spyder ?

    Thank you! Yep, spark plugs were changed last July before our Alaska trip. Just wondering if there are some high mileage spyders still out there on the road. ������Yep, oil and tires seem to be my biggest expense.
