• 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's with the Loud Whine slowing/downshifting?

    noise My '17 F3 with 1229 miles is in the shop for a "whine". I have tried full - half - and no helmet - it is not paranoia. Dealer's tech thought it was the rear wheel bearings. Changed - no difference - whine is there any gear or RPM between 40 and 50 mph. Will wait (how long? ) and see what...

    Source of noise on left side of ACE 1330 engine

    Noise I have the base model '17 F3 with semi auto trans. When fairly new it had a small whine about 32 mph. Now with 1229 miles it has developed a "banshee" type noise in the 40 to 50 mph. Took it to my dealer Monday and was told they thought it was the rear wheel bearing. Spoke to them this...

    Difference between f3, f3s and f3s special

    '17 F3 base model I have one. It has theSE6 transmission. For just over $200.00 I added cruise and the BRP tensioner. As for horsepower - I don't believe there is a difference. Check out the RPM's on advertised HP. If there is a difference ( can't convince me yet ) it sure doesn't feel like it...

    Video: INNOVV K1 2-channel Dashcam (front and rear lens)

    camera Thank you for the ride along. Very nice job. I noticed that the rear camera shows a straight on view as opposed to a mirror image. I had a little trouble trying to keep up with things as you went by them - on the left - on the right. Great job and a wonderful addition to safety. Have fun...

    Bright Headlights Daytime Yes or No

    I do not like bright lights shining in my eyes - day or night! People that can't see another vehicle with properly adjusted lights (to me) have problems beyond vision! Not trying to start a ******* contest - just that not everyone enjoys being distracted by someone who thinks his being noticed...

    My cat delete

    cat convertor Neat idea and job. However I don't think that you get the benefits of the cat delete pipe. There is still a lot of restriction from the angles and chambers. Just my thoughts. Tip Ps - I destroyed a converter in discovering this - no regrets!

    rt swaybar swap with F3

    I have read several posts about swapping bars with an RT. I found one on our site and purchased it. The standard bar on my '17 F3 is .563 inches. The RT bar is .623. Can't test it because of surgery - but soon!! Have a nice day, Tip

    Another RPM question

    rpm I don't agree with any set (low side) rpm to shift. There are to many variables to consider - are you going uphill under a load - are you riding in the middle of a group? For those that can't "feel" what their ride is doing I believe in being slightly on the "high" side. In almost all...

    Fuel Type - anyone use ethanol and any problems?

    gas I thought that the problem with ethanol and older vehicles was the damage it did to the carb. gaskets? (maybe all engine gaskets in contact) I do remember when it was started it cost us extra to add it to gas . Now they charge extra to purchase non-ethanol gas. Something ain't right - and...

    Has the F3 changed?

    Still waiting on BRP after three weeks?

    tire replacement It is sad to read some of the responses to this post! The OP says his tires wore out prematurely. Having experienced BRP's response to out of alignment I know how he feels. If you don't like his post - ignore it! No need to give him a raft of grief. He is not a member of the...
