• 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.

    Curious if others have had battery issues with newer OEM Batteries?

    We replaced my wife's 2105 F3 with a 2024 F3T last summer. After a few months, it was obvious (for a few reasons) that her battery was not up to par. Our dealer agreed and replaced her battery. After a few weeks, it was clear that the new battery was also bad. I don't recall the battery brand...

    Why is the Factory PSI thread closed?

    Many of us are trying to arrive at the facts. If, indeed 15 front is correct, then 25 front is possibly dangerous. (erratic handling, diminished traction). If, indeed, 25 is correct, then 15 is equally bad. We need answers to this very important question. 1 psi, in either direction, affects how...

    When did BRP start using Kanines?

    My wife's 2024 F3T doesn't have Kanines on it . I thought that has been the new Kenda for a few years now. Please enlighten me.

    When, if ever, was a belt dampener factory-installed on F3?

    Every time I read about this I seem to find various answers. My dealer doesn't have a for certain answer. (I know aftermarket products have long been available and we've installed them) Our 2024 F3T does not have one. I'm also aware of the swingarm change (RT style) in more recent models. Has...

    Why do I need to synch helmet audio to '24 F3 to get Navi working?

    We were unable to get the iphone's navi to work with the F3T's display, so we made a trip into the dealer. They told us that an update became available yesterday. (good timing) after a bunch of confusion, we (they) got it to work properly. Here's my question: Why is it required to sync the...

    Passenger foot pegs won’t stay vertical - any suggestions to keep them up?

    New 2024 F3T. My wife almost never has a passenger, so she leaves her passenger pegs folded upwards. Even sitting untouched in the garage, the pegs descend to their horizontal position after a short time. Even quicker when riding! The 2 bolts per peg are tight. Any suggestions to keep pegs vertical?

    Will my 2024 F3T need a belt vibration damper?

    My wife just traded her 2015 F3 for a 2024 F3T. We had a belt tensioner/vibration damper on the 2015 that did solve a vibration issue. Has BRP resolved this issue since 2015 or will we still need a vibration damper on the 2024?

    Any ideas on F3T rear bag/pannier removal?

    We're about to buy an F3T. We sometimes trailer my Indian with my wife's 2015 F3. that's been a tight fit and the bags on the 2024 F3T will have to be taken off for trailering. Does anyone here know how involved it is to remove those bags? I'm hoping it's just a few bolts per side.

    What are your impressions of 2024 windshield vs older aftermarket choices?

    My wife still has her 2015 F3 manual. She's complained about her tired clutch hand, so we plan to get a 2024 semi-auto. Her 2015 has a Madstad swindhield that she really likes. Shes looks above it, and it gives her the desired amount of wind blockage (she prefers some airflow, not complete...

    Leak at oil filter cap

    Just did a seasonal oil change on my wife's F3 as I've done several other times. Initially, I didn't use a new O-ring for the cap and it leaked. So, I removed the cap and installed a new O-ring. Still leaks. I've tried tightening the cap very firmly and tried not tightening it so much. It's not...

    Oil drain plug torque values?

    I have done a couple of searches, but have found some inconsistent results. Can someone either direct me to or tell me the correct torque specs for the 2 drain bolts on an F3? Thanks.

    Rear tire (automotive) pressure?

    I just installed a Kumho Ecsta on my wife’s F3. I did a lot of searching on this forum regarding suggested tire pressure. I found a variety of different numbers in parts of misc threads and thought we could use this single thread to consolidate many suggestions in one place. This will make...

    Laser alignment question

    After I install the new rear tire on my wife's F3, I plan to get a laser alignment. Do they set the belt tension as part of the alignment? I don't want to set belt tension before the alignment if they have to align the rear wheel (and, by doing so, change the belt tension) We've read great...

    Space bar inoperative when I "reply with quote"

    Title really says it all. Anywhere else on the internet and/or this forum the space bar operates. When I type a "reply with quote" on this forum, there are no spaces between words. If I go back to my sentence with the cursor, I can insert spaces. What's up?

    Pirrelli P Zero ?

    I know that a lot of riders go to auto tires for the increased tread life. All of what I've read has guys going to some inexpensive tires (Kuhmo, etc.) I know that on a car a high perf tire can totally change the vehicle dynamics for the better. I would think that the prospect of improving the...

    Winter mods on my wife's F3:

    I did a few things to make her bike a little closer to perfect: 1. Painted a whiter pearl white, including 3 fenders. 2. Removed "Can-Am" emblem and painted silver scoops satin black. 3. Lowered brake pedal. 4. BRP clutch assist kit. 5. SmoothSpyder tensioner. 6. Custom short Madstad...

    2016 exterior drunk light can be retrofit to 2015

    If you look through the 2016 F3 pix on the Can-Am site, some are shown with a very bright full width light directly under the front lip of the drunk lid. I contacted my dealer and they did some digging. I was told by them that the light and a 2015 retrofit kit are available for about $220. I'm...

    non-optimized frunk volume

    I had the grill off today while doing the clutch-assist mod. I was amazed at how much open space exists around the frunk compartment. I'd estimate that the volume could be increased by 50%. I'm sure some of that open space was left for radiator air flow, but I think a lot more of it could have...
