• 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.

    New battery - could it be dead after just 1 year?! Any ideas?

    Replaced the battery in June 2021 on my 2015 F3S with Yuausa, purchased from the dealer, they said it was charged before the sale. Yesterday, the bike did not start, seemed like it tried to crank but did not have enough juice. Called AAA, jump started just fine. I usually ride about 20-30...

    Bad Key, not DESS Error - anyone else? Ideas?

    2015 F3S here with 18000 miles, periodically upon turning the key to "on" position I get the message "Bad Key", If I take it out and reinsert, everything is fine. There's no "DESS error" message, just "Bad key" Anybody else had that? I am thinking maybe its time for a new battery, I still have...

    Any ideas about a Coolant leak before stealership visit?

    Have been noticing a few drops of fluid on the right side ( as I sit on the bike) after a ride recently. I think its coolant. Feels kinda oily but dries clear. There are a few spots that dried white on the R lower wind deflector. I took the R panel off, no visible leaks, coolant reservoir level...

    Thinking about a two wheeler

    I've owned spyders since they came out. Started in 2008 with an RS and now have a 2015 F3 . Both SE5, no previous motorcycle experience. Should I start with a 300cc or a 600, Spyder is a 1330, but I assume much less torque than a Yamaha R6, what do you think?

    Acrapovic for f3

    I am thinking about switching from stock to Acrapovic pipe on my 2015 F3S SE6. I know about 2 brothers but some people are saying that it is too loud and might void the waranty. Acrapovic is expensive but it is a BRP pipe ( warranty concerns). Just wondering if folks that have it could chime in...

    ufit for f3

    Got my white f3 s a few days ago. She is a beauty. When I asked the dealer about u fit they said that all units are stock bar and position 3 on foot pegs. They did not do any fitting. The recommendation was to ride and if it's uncomfortable come back and start buying parts and do the trial and...

    DPS question

    My 2008 RS SE 5 has been acting a little weird in turns, seems like DPS stops assisting prematurely, it gets harder to turn all of a sudden during the turn, usually happens when I have to make a 90 degree left or right turn. Seems OK on lane changes and small turns. I tried to pull the codes...

    Engine light

    My 2008 RS SE5 (16,000 miles)threw a "check transmission" message and check engine light came on. All went away after the bike warmed up ( 3 miles of riding). Runs and shifts well. Went for a 10 mile ride, took 2 hr break, started again and the whole thing repeated itself with normal...

    DPS question

    My 2008 GS SE5 started to act up yesterday. It seems like power steering turns off at higher speeds. Hard to turn at over 10 mph, seems fine at lower speeds( easy to turn the handlebars). Sometimes while making a left/right turn seems like I am about to lose control. OK changing lanes. No mods...

    Hindle

    I am considering putting hindle exhaust on my 2008 gs se5. A few questions: It says that it is not street legal and does not meet EPA standards but a lot of people use it. Is there a potential exposure to fines/penalties? Are we putting too much pollution out? I know it is much less than a small...

    Clutch failing?

    My 2008 gs se5 has been acting strange. It seems to have a "hick up" when it starts moving. I put it on the 1st gear, hear a normal clunk, then I give it some gas and before it starts moving there is another clunk and slight jolt. It only happens when the bike is cold and only when it starts...

    Air box oil

    Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I just wanted to get a feedback on the oil in the airbox situation. I have a 2008 RS SE5 and I've had this problem after about 2000 miles on the bike, As far as I know- no real fix from BRP. I've used catch cans, but they leak eventually and oil drips on the exhaust...
