• 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.

    2022 F3L radio comes on when I start! Any thoughts on turning it OFF?!

    I said in my ORIGINAL post that I turned it off in my settings. I will try that if I have not already done this in frustration before... on my 2018, the radio was never OFF... just volume turned down to unable to hear it. My previous setting initially was that I could not hear it at all -...

    2022 F3L radio comes on when I start! Any thoughts on turning it OFF?!

    2022 F3L. I turned down volume on radio via settings and did not select any channels. I do NOT want to hear radio at all. Yet, when I start bike, radio volume comes up a bit, loud enough to where I have to lower the volume yet again for this ride. Although it's easy enough to turn volume...

    2018 F3L - reset trip odometers not working - is there some trick to clearing?

    I know where to find my trip A/B odometers that have accumulated over 10K miles each...in past, someone had cleared them, but it is not working for me. I cannot get my joystick to go to the 0.0 clear on the odometer stats. Is there a problem with the joystick going there? or with the 0.0 clear...

    2018 F3L with less than 14,300 miles Dealer tells me that my wiring harness is rubbing raw in one area that they DID find that is causing me a short in my transmission, aka "stuck in gear" for me, while driving. They cannot tell me if there are more problem areas or not as they stopped looking...

    Does a brand-new bike burn oil during break in?

    what do you mean by screwed it up? I do believe they maybe shorted it a bit.

    Does a brand-new bike burn oil during break in?

    I check the oil correctly. I own a 2018 and know how to do this, however, NEVER did I own a brand new bike.

    Does a brand-new bike burn oil during break in?

    I am sure about the oil check procedure, as I have a 2018 that I still own, too. My dip showed oil just below minimum... owner's manual states to add 1 qt. The difference between min and max on the stick is 1 qt.

    Does a brand-new bike burn oil during break in?

    Brand new 2022 F3L delivered to me with 0.6 miles on it. Now I have 352 miles on it and, using BRP oil check procedures, am down about 1/2 - 3/4 of 1 qt. Owner's manual states to add 1 qt. of oil if below minimum on dipstick...I was just barely below the min mark. Is it typical for a brand...

    What needs checking after HARD collision with a trailer ramp?

    I have not blamed the dealer for EVERYTHING...just for their EMPLOYEE - the stupid tow truck driver - slamming my bike into the ramp. That is a very specific blame and they ARE responsible as they EMPLOY the tow truck driver on their payroll.

    What needs checking after HARD collision with a trailer ramp?

    and the dealer most likely will not pay for an outside opinion. I am beside myself with what to do here. The ex-dealer I am talking about (earlier) is a Spyder master mechanic today with a full shop setup. I may let him assess my bike for damages, but at that time, I will be paying to find...

    What needs checking after HARD collision with a trailer ramp?

    NO, but I have photos of PRIOR to it - bump skid with NO dents / damage. And the tow truck driver took pics in my garage, PRIOR to the accident. So the grille / bump skid should show NO DAMAGE before he rode it. I also have 2 other witnesses who heard (1) and saw (1).

    F3L side bag/glove box not shutting/staying closed - any fix ideas?

    What problem are you having with it? Mine looks funny, but I have not ridden in rain yet...I hope it seals from water correctly!

    What needs checking after HARD collision with a trailer ramp?

    I am going to report it to BRP as I have an open, escalated case going on right now for this bike.

    What needs checking after HARD collision with a trailer ramp?

    I am hoping for them to just own up to the dent they made in my bump skid (where the front point on it WAS) and maybe pushing for an alignment...an ex-dealer who works on spyders here tells me that really there is nothing but space between bump skid and radiators.

    How to ride to break in a new F3L

    I am female...do not get nutty as I thoroughly understand this from my 26 years of riding, and 7 bikes later: When you get too confident on a bike, THAT is when you drop it!

    F3L side bag/glove box not shutting/staying closed - any fix ideas?

    Ok, I will try that! but I still have the glove box issue where it flaps in the wind when I do faster than 50mph.

    What needs checking after HARD collision with a trailer ramp?

    When my bike left my garage prior to entering trailer, it had no damage...now bump skid is damaged. I am waiting for them to own up to this, and if they do not, I will name them in every new post I have about what happened, and online, and to my 3 Spyder Riders groups that I am in. As well as...

    What needs checking after HARD collision with a trailer ramp?

    I had my 2018 Spyder F3L towed into dealer for warranty work on intermittent "stuck in gear" since last August...BRP has escalated my case internally. BUT! The dealer's tow truck driver, who worked for the dealer for 5 years now and bragged to me about knowing how to properly tow a Spyder...
