• 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.

    Barkbuster Storm hand guards

    I put these on a Yamaha Vmax. No problems with single point being able to handle 135 mph. Since I also have a 2016 F3L I can see no installation issues. My F3L is 6 mm. But not to worry, you can easily go to a local hardware store for an 8mm if needed. I went with the carbon fiber and the look...

    Horrible day dealing with iMotorsports

    I agree, something is throwing a red flag for the lender Reality check. It's not like any dealership is just sitting around with NOTHING else to do. I-motosports is a bee hive of activity.The poster is hardly a cash customer ready to close a sale. When a credit check requires more information...

    ECU removal

    Tough bolt I forgot that I only install my ECU with the two easy bolts. Stays in place just fine.

    ECU removal

    panel removal You need to remove the left side panel that says can-am. After that the ecu removal is straight forward / 3-10 mm screws and two harness connectors. 1. remove the left small cover over the air filter. 2. remove only the three push locks along that top edge. take a small screw...

    Monster Fuel Injection Stage 2 Flash - F3T 2016

    I verified the same experience. I went back to all stock exhaust and was hard pressed to notice any power loss. Owning two ECUs, stage 1 and stage 2, I went back to stage 1 ECU flash, covered the holes in the filter cover that stage 2 required. I'm getting older, but I like the quiet exhaust of...

    My Vredestein vs Kenda ramblings.

    we must have a special batch I have trashed the stock tires on this forum multiple times based on my tire experiences with my 2015 RT. I am very anal about handling and tire performance. Yet, I can't explain how I have 17,000 miles on the stock front tires on my F3L. The tires are not cupped...

    1st post.....RT vs F3?

    I've had both and here is what I think you want to hear. The RT has better stock wind protection. With Baker air wings added and closed, the passenger temperature rises by about 10 degrees. Seems engine heat gets redirected to the passenger? This is really nice when the sun drops or on cooler...

    Anyone have this exhaust?

    I have a Spyder1 on my F3. These pipes are hand made and of good quality. The owner is very nice to deal with. You can expect these pipes to be loud. I had to add extra baffles to my pipe to tame it a bit. ALL pipes are overpriced IMO. Yes, LOOKS are what drive all my accessory selections. I...

    Stock Air Filter or K & N Air Filter

    I like my K&N True words. The K&N filter for our Spyders is very well constructed, a perfect fit, and NOT paper at all! Hyperone tested a K&N for his F3 and told me he felt some improved starting power with it. Given how reliable I felt his opinion was I tried one my self as I have been doing...

    Have you had an ECU Flash? How long did it take? Any good?

    I have been testing flashes for Monster fuel since the beginning of this journey. I have two ECUs, stage 1 and 2.Both ECUs are dialed in and it's kind of cool that they are plug and play. It's really hard to tell which is which but here is two things that separate the flashes. 1. stage 1 has...

    Monster Fuel Injection Stage 2 Flash - F3T 2016

    The holes in the air box lid for stage 2 make a noticeable intake sound at certain rpms. Since the top of the filter lid and the holes point up toward me, it's kind of like a honk in my face. It has taken about 250 miles for me to get all the mapping changes working. It's not just the ECU...

    just quit

    This is a fact. I have tested flipping the kill switch back and fort a couple of times at speed. Of course this is when there wasn't any issues with traffic. Just wanted to know for myself. Dennis

    Have you had an ECU Flash? How long did it take? Any good?

    Yes, this is important. You have to go through the full throttle range to red line. Dennis

    Have you had an ECU Flash? How long did it take? Any good?

    My information on speed limit restrictions must be dated. Until I got the stage 2 flash which I have not tested,, I have been using a stage one that was not the finale version. I kind of burned out with testing and just wanted to ride. It seems to me that my F3 Limited has the same speed...

    Have you had an ECU Flash? How long did it take? Any good?

    Yes, Yes and Yes. I complained to Monster Fuel during testing that the speed restrictions need to be addressed. Like Jcthorne says, he claims it's possible then says it's a liability issue, then says it's complicated and overlaid in more that the ECU. I have not tested stage 2 yet, It's winter...

    Have you had an ECU Flash? How long did it take? Any good?

    Your question is valid. I traded in a flashed RT that has been up to 9,100 rpm. I was in a cold sweat as the BUDS were hooked up. A puzzled tech called over another tech as they BOTH looked at something. Later, I got the courage to ask the techs. He said they could see some misc error codes that...

    https://monsterfuelinjection.com/home/canam/canam-spyder/1330cc/ Here is the link with the form to fill out. He expects you to circle at the top the words stage 1, or stage 2. I would hand write what you want directly on the form to be clear. Ask for stage two, ask for 50% throttle transition...

    Have you had an ECU Flash? How long did it take? Any good?

    Ditto with my experience. I have spent thousands on race bikes to get a measly five hp. But to keep this in perspective, it's not the 25% gain in performance across the rpm range from the flash, it's that we were ROBBED by can-am of what the bike should have been. Especially on the F3 platform...

    Aluma TK1

    1" really tight One inch going forward is hard enough. You can't really see the clearance sitting in the center of your seat. But try backing up through that clearance while monitoring behind you and it could get risky. If the ramp posted is the one you are looking at, and you have an RT with a...
