• 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.

    F3-S coolant

    Went to two auto part stores today to find some coolant for my wifes 2015 Spyder F3-S. The manual says to use BRP long life coolant but I am not driving an hour and a half to the can-am dealer. It also says "or coolant designed for aluminum engines". Both of the popular auto stores didn't...

    Lamonster LED kit

    Just installed the Lamonster LED headlights on my wifes 2015 F3-S. She rode to work early this morning and didn't like the hi-beam pattern. I took it for a run tonight and agree that the HI-beam pattern is not good. Looking at the pattern I don't think this is an adjustment issue. I imagine...

    Wanting to buy

    Is there a flea market or wanted to buy forum on here? I didn't see one. I am looking for a rear trunk for a 2015 Spyder F3-S. Thanks.

    Factory recommendation / replacing parts

    I was reading through my new to me Green Manual. Just as an example, it stated that the rear axle nut should be replaced if removed? This seems a little ridiculous. My axle nuts for example on my BMW have been taken off thousands of times since 2000 and are still doing what they should. I...

    F3-S Brake pads

    We recently got a 2015 Spyder F3-S. Just want to be sure that the rotors are made to be used with sintered brake pads / semi-sintered. Thanks.

    Oil substitute

    Just got a 2015 Spyder F3-S SE6. Manual and owner's manual calls for 4 stroke XPS oil. I use Amsoil in my BMW bike. Looking on the Amsoil website it calls for, I think 10w-40 or 5W-40, can't remember right this second. Anyway, how important is it for this particular engine to stick with the...

    Maintenance items

    We are new to the Spyders and I was wondering if there were any places to buy parts and maintenance supplies? For example, my bike is a BMW R1150gs and there is a place called Beemer Boneyard and I can get BMW items through them at ridiculously cheap prices versus getting it through BMW for...

    Throttle adjust

    We just got a 2015 F3-S / SE6. Tonight was the first time I ever rode a Spyder. Didn't know it wasn't a cable throttle. I assume there is just a spring in the twist grip which has a very light touch. Is there a heavier spring or whatever mechanism they have in there that you could buy to...

    Spyder service manual

    We are going to be purchasing a Spyder F3 SE6. Do you guys have any recommendations for a good tried and true service manual / repair manual. I would assume Clymer or Haines make them but wanted to get your opinions. I have always worked on my motorcycle and would like to hopefully continue...

    New to the Spyder

    Hey all. My wife and I were going to look at a 2015 Spyder F3 SE6 this week for her. I only know about BMW oilheads and wanted to check in this technical forum about any known issues with this? Also, how difficult the maintenance is? Someone had posted in another forum about the maintinence...

    New to Spyders

    Hey all. We are going to purchase a Spyder this summer for my wife. She is interested in an automatic. We have been riding 2 up for years on my R1150GS. Oilheads are the only bike I really know about. Is there any particular years or models that we should stay away from? Also, anything...
