• 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.

    Belt Tensioner

    I just received a Gates 91132 Krikit II Drive Belt Tension Gauge from BajahRon's to check the tension on my F3 drive belt. It tells me that I have 200#'s of tension on the belt. However I'm getting the vibrations when letting up on the trottle. Now the belt tensioner will supposedly eliminate...

    New Tank bag for F3

    Well I got everything out to check and see how it's going to mount. Unfortunately this is a pretty complicated installation. Requiring that you drill holes (the drill bit is included) in the bottom of the tank bag to mount the fastner to the bag. Also the dry fit is looking as though I'm very...

    Battery life?

    I just bought a 2015 F3 with only 1600 miles on it. It was actually purchased in 2017. So it sat in a dealers show room for two years and then sat in his garage a good share of the time he owned it. The pervious owner told me that he replaced the battery just before I bought it and showed me the...

    2008/2013 990/998 V Twin Owners - XPS M Rated Oil versus OTHER Oils Rated API 'M'

    I've always strayed away from most oil threads as they usually become a real "PIA". I've had several motorcycles that I used the Shell Rotella Synthetic oil in with no problems after many 1,000"s of miles. These were all Jap bikes though. However now that I just bought a used 2015 Spyder I know...

    How do I get to the battery??

    Hi billybovine: Thanks so much for your input. I just discovered that the previous owner installed a trickle charger lead on the battery. The only thing I'll need to do is move it so that I don't have to remove the service panel every time I plug it in. Thanks again, JimSTer

    HowTo: Locking tank bag

    I'm trying to find a tank bag that will lock onto the fuel filler opening. Givi makes the bags but not the model specific ring to mount on the bike. Apparently nothing for the Can Am And Twisted Throttle hasn't returned my inquiry about SW Motec. Does anyone have an idea where I can get this...

    How do I get to the battery??

    This sounds like an awfully simple chore. However in the manual when you go to the battery in the owners manual it shows you where it's located. But in order to get to it you've have to remove the front cargo "bucket". And the manual tells you to go to the "removing panels" section. However...

    Where can I get a owners manual online?

    Thanks so much, guys. I got it and it was so good that I spent the past three hours reading it. And what kind of fuel mileage should I expect to get while riding it back home on the interstate? Oh, and it's a 2015. Not a 13 as I wrote earlier. JimSTer
