• 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.

    What is this plastic rod? Should it be attached somewhere?

    That is one step that gets missed often during initial assembly. It was one of the first things I checked on my F3. My previous RT had it too.

    New to the Spyder World

    You made the choice that many have made after trying to turn a sport bike into a touring bike. You are really going to love that Sea To Sky.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Added a driver backrest to the F3. What a difference! Adding driving lights, LED Headlights, Belt Dampener and a bottle holder in the next few days.

    UPDATE: Ryker is repaired and back home after 26 days. Half of the time was waiting on parts. Our Rally shut down on the highway with a Belt Saver message on the screen. It would not even idle. Took our Ultimate Trailer to pick it up and drop it at the shop. Issue was a failed fuel pump and...

    Does a 2023 F3 Ltd have an air valve for ACS under the seat?

    On my old RT-S there was a Schraeder Valve under the seat, even though it had the automatic air suspension. On my 2023 F3, there does not seem to be a Schraeder valve. Am I missing something?

    What makes a Spyder's smoother ride vs. Ryker?

    I have a Spyder F3 Limited and a Ryker Rally. Wheel Base is almost identical. A comfort seat and a backrest made a huge difference on the Ryker. Make sure the Ryker handlebars are as close to you as possible. Also try different positions for your feet, and/or floorboards.

    When Dogwoods bloom.... their pollen covers everything, including my Spyder!!

    A cover wouldn’t help?

    Let the work begin... 2015 F3 with a new (used) engine being installed.

    That shift clunk gets a lot of attention. All is well though. Shawn Smoak does a great job explaining the transmission. Ride on.

    Choosing between 2019 F3T Ltd & 2023 F3T Ltd - any insights?

    They likely have heated grips, but not seats.

    Who would have thought that Grip Puppies could make such a difference!

    I did use grip heat when I first installed them. Heat did seem to come through OK. Heated grips don’t get used much here in Arizona.

    How do you delete the Ryker's Reverse Hazard Lights thing?

    If you are overly concerned with what others think, don’t use reverse, just use your feet like the old school trikes did.

    What would cause this issue with shifting on a '21 RT?

    It almost seems to be low on oil. The Hydraulic Control Module in pretty sensitive to oil level..

    GOOD NEWS about delivery of my 2024 Spyder - Finally Here!

    Outstanding. I love the frame color. Have fun.

    Who would have thought that Grip Puppies could make such a difference!

    Who would have thought a twenty dollar add-on could make such a difference. I started out putting them on my Ryker Rally (2020), as the grips were getting pretty worn. It only took a single ride before I decided that my new 2023 F3 should get them too.

    Helmet Day! Got a new Bell Modular!

    Bell and Shoei are the only two Modular’s that I have found that fit me well. I am an XXL, which many manufacturers don’t even offer, and those that do have quirky fit issues for me.

    Helmet Day! Got a new Bell Modular!

    I was a bad boy and continued using the same Shoei helmet for twelve years. Got a new Bell Modular helmet today and transferred the Cardo Packtalk.

    Random thought for the day

    This happened to somebody at a Spring Training baseball game last week. They came over the PA system to ask them to go turn off their SUV.
