• 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.

    whats the best time of year to sell?

    Hi folks! About a month or so ago, I put up my Spyder for sale on FB marketplace and got quite a few interests and one deal that fell through on my part.. (trying to sell a vehicle that has a lien to a private party is a pain) I recently decided to sell it again, so I paid off the lien and...

    Being more accepted. What a difference two years make

    When I got my first Spyder a couple years ago, it seemed like the "wave" was rarely reciprocated. But over this past riding season, and especially since I got my new F3S, it seems like the wave is now returned more often than it is not. And not only that, it is often initiated by the other...

    Does Sport Mode do more than just turn off traction control?

    I was telling a buddy of mine that my new F3S (stock. no antisway bar and no laser alignment) rides super smooth at highway speeds, especially with Sport Mode of, that its ALMOST as smooth as a car. My old F3T, with antisway bar and laser alignment did not ride as smooth as the F3S. And it...

    Are there really THAT many differences between the Spyder and two wheels?

    Besides the obvious ones (for the Spyder, no need to put your feet down, safer, etc. For the 2wheels, prob a little more nimble in the curves(or are they?), are there really that much difference between the two in terms of actual riding? Of course the differences that I listed are the main...

    How do you reply when asked about the Spyder?

    People often ask me how do I like the Spyder and how does it compare to a 2 wheeler. After telling them how much I like the Spyder, I usually tell them the Spyder is 95% (if not more) as fun as a 2-wheel, but 110% (if not more) as safe and comfortable as a 2-wheeler. What do you guys say?

    My new F3S!

    Traded in my 2017 F3T for this 2019 F3S Special Series! This thing is a beauty, if I don't say myself! Only 88 miles on it so far, but I am really enjoying it. I miss the F3T saddle bags a little, but everything else is a plus in my book.

    Belt tensioner: Can Am vs Roadster Renovations (RR wins!)

    I have about 8000 miles on my Can Am belt tensioner. I must be one of the lucky ones because I've never had a problem with it. However, after reading stories of the failures, I figured it was only a matter of time before mine went too. I ordered a Roadster Renovations one last fall and...

    Please critique my video

    I've been hired to do product marketing videos for a local dealership. It's the first iteration that will hopefully evolve into producing videos for every vehicle and accessory they sell. I dont have much experience in making a marketing video so any input will be appreciated. Please take a...

    Confession time: I get a little silly when I get on my Spyder

    It almost never fails. No matter what kind of mood I am in, as soon as I start ryding, I get happy. I sing to myself (sometimes with music. Sometimes just making up my own stupid songs). I bob my head to the music. Tap my feet. Move my knees up and down to the rhythm. Whistle. Imagine...

    Off roading? We don't need no steenking Ryker!

    Well, not exactly "off roading", but a probably at the limit that I would go with my Spyder. 360 video here: https://youtu.be/VhYwMiatT3E Slow and steady wins the race.

    Don't knock 'til ya try it

    When I first got my Spyder about a year ago, one of my best friends in NY was giving me the obligatory smack about getting a "real" motorcycle, blah blah blah. I recently rode it to NY and let him ride it. He came back with a smile on his face and for the rest of the time I was there, he...

    Virtual Reality or "Hyperframe" video?

    I have videos of my Spyder ryde yesterday. One is produced as a VR video, and the other is called "Hyperframe". The VR one, the viewer controls the view by moving your phone, or swiping the video. The "Hyperlapse" one changes the view automatically but has (I think) some pretty cool effects...

    Does something change at 5000 miles?

    I recently hit 5,000 miles on my '17 F3T. It is laser aligned and has the Can-Am belt tensioner. I have always put 93 octane in it. It has been fine, but it always seemed like it could be better. Sort of seemed like it is winding out and wanting another gear which kinda felt like high...

    Would you ride over this?

    If this bridge was wide enough, would you ride your Spyder over it? Me? Hells no! I would have a hard enough time just walking over it! https://youtu.be/Hww425c2MWs

    Got rear-ended in my truck. Glad I was not on my Spyder

    On Friday evening, about 5:30 pm, I was rear-ended by a drink driver while I was stopped at a red light. Luckily, I was in my truck and not on my Spyder. The bumper on my full-size pick-up is destroyed. I hate to think what would have happened if I were on my Spyder, because if it were not...
