• 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.

    LIFTS - anybody here have experience with Pitbull Lifts for an RT?

    What is everyone using to lift their F3. I believe Pitbull has an option but wondering if anyone is using or has modified a J&S to work on an F3. The company does not seem interested in the product.

    Semi-synthetic Blend I have purchased 3 new bikes, a Kawasaki, a Victory and now a Can Am. ALL of them recommended using a semi-synthetic oil. Victory stated that semi synthetic results in engine running 5-10F cooler. I have been in Powersports for 50+ years and I have never seen a...

    Top Trunk Switch

    The safety switch on the trunk of my 17 F3L frequently gives me a Trunk Open indcation on the dash. I find the switch is very loosely mounted in the bottom shell of the trunk. If I wiggle it a little it works until I hit bump or open trunk again. Hate to take back for warranty consideration...

    Laser Alignment

    Without question, wheel alignment is a key element of how a Spyder handles. I’ve seen a few examples of people who put together some “home-made” alignment kits. Are the professional versions available for purchase? Anybody have any product names, prices, etc? Thx.
