• 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.

    Baffled by the Throttle retun spring & bushing

    i went through this exact pain this afternoon installing the heated grips on my wife's F3-T. No matter what I did, the throttle always bound up and wouldn't snap back to idle. I finally noticed that the hole in the end of the base of the throttle end cap didn't line up with the slot in the...

    More New F3-T Pictures / T-Thoughts

    Came across a deal I couldn't pass up on a new F3-T for my wife while visiting Cuba, MO during Spyderfest. Thanks, Cowtown! Picked it up yesterday, and this is what it looked like this afternoon! Already installed - Lamont auxiliary lights - these install like the OEM ones should - in...

    Spyderfest 2016 at The Best Western Coach House (official Thread)

    Best Western Coach House - May 7th Stopped by the BW Coach House to pick up some charging cables that some friends of ours had left while there for Spyderfest. Where is everybody? ;) We even saw Hotglue and Flamingo Babe, I think, turning onto Glenstone from the Lamplighter. They must have...

    Heated Grips

    I just installed the heated handgrips on my wife's new F3-T (picked it up yesterday). I had installed them on my F3-S a year ago. It was a tad more challenging on the T. If I can remember correctly, several panels had to come off, I think in this order... Besides the large side panels, the nose...

    I can't make up my mind!!!

    Congrats on the purchase! I've had my F3 for a year and love it. I highly recommend the 3rd peg that Lamont sells. It makes it so much easier to get on and off the Spyder, and as others have mentioned, it gives you an option to "stand on the pegs" when going over rough patches of road. I do that...

    Auxiliary Lights Won't Fit ?

    Those light kits were begging for a cheap, simple tool to help do that "simple" quarter turn. Considering the price paid for them, it sure seems like that tool should have been included! I did the same thing - chamfered the edges of the wings to provide some opportunity for it to engage. Without...

    F3 Frunk Liner and F3T Saddlebag Liners

    Take a look at this thread for info on the tank bag. I still like it! http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?79236-A-Few-F3-Farkles&referrerid=9492

    F3 Frunk Liner and F3T Saddlebag Liners

    We stopped by our dealer yesterday on our ride home from lunch and saw that they had the Can Am saddlebag liners for the F3-T and a frunk liner. Since I had put Corbin bags on my F3-S, I was really curious as to which was larger - the Corbin bags or the F3-T bags. The answer is the Corbin bags...

    Passenger Backrest Installation Warning

    I stripped the head on a foot peg attach bolt last spring when I bought some floorboards for my F3 at Spyderfest. Rode home from Springfield with one floorboard and one foot peg. I think it's fair to say that those bolts had a liberal amount of blue loctite on them... It would have also helped...

    Can Am survey

    I got the survey and filled it out. We'd really like to go, but am concerned about the dates they're considering. My wife is a teacher and the first weekend in June is right at the end of the school year, so it doesn't allow for any travel time after school does get out. I wish the survey asked...

    Nice ride to breakfast! My friends and I made the drive from Merrillville to New Buffalo several times back in the day when the drinking age in Michigan was 18... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Tall rider needs HELP...

    I didn't know it either, until I installed the new seat and noticed that I had a longer reach to the brake pedal. I don't know if that is standard for the Corbin seats or not, but I'm sure it's something you could request. On the flip side, it took the same amount of space away from the pillion...

    How to remove the lateral console panel?

    I agree! It was a really anxious moment getting that panel off - I would have sworn that I broke it based on how far I had to twist it and the loud pop it made when it did break free. After I got one side off, it was a little bit easier getting the other side off since I knew what to expect...

    Tall rider needs HELP...

    I got a Corbin seat this spring for my F3-S. I was quite surprised when I found out that it moved the seating position back somewhere between 2" and 2 1/2" inches. I'm 6' even and have the pegs in the forward-most position. With the Corbin seat, I probably could move them back one and be very...

    All the 2016 Spyder Lineup info posted here!

    What's with the different nose and fender/lights on the F3-T in the pictures on pages 4 & 11 of the brochure? Quite interesting looking, but they don't seem to appear in the other pictures in the line-up description / rest of the brochure.

    2015 or wait until 2016?

    For your iPhone, consider a handlebar mount (Ram X-grip or Techmount, for example) and add a USB outlet to the LH service panel using the customer accessory harness that's hidden underneath that panel. There's a thread or two on installing that outlet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What's the suggestion for Adding Cruise Control to an F3?

    Switch keys with the hubby - the fastest way for you to get cruise control on YOUR Spyder! :-) BTW, hello from a native Region Rat! Grew up in Merrillville. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
