• 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.

    Paraplegic new F3-S owner, hi from the U.K

    Glad it worked out, I have heard a lot of people having problems with the hand brake. As my right leg gets worse I have looked at making a hand brake off the foot brake, like the old farm tractors had, so I have the option when my leg won't move. With a longer leaver it would give me more...

    F3 Vibration

    I had a vibration about 67 to 70 mph when new, got 5,000 miles on it and no more vibration. I think it was the belt. I believe it to be a belt on the snug side. This is on a 2015 F3S. Our mechanic at world of power has put on 5 belt tensioners and taken off 4 of them. My wife's 2012 RT just got...

    Bluetooth headsets

    We have found that the first thing you link up gets the best signal, so we link the helmets first then music. Try it and see if it works better for you. Jim:doorag:

    CAT BYPASS

    After hearing several different combos at spyder fest last year I went with it and the stock muffler. Very pleased with the sound, not too loud on the open road but just enough to give it some attitude. Also was glad BRP could not get their add on pipe after hearing some I did not like it. And...
