• 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.

    Baja Ron F3 anti-sway bar

    Well, I finally got the anti-sway bar installed. I rode for several miles after the install and didn't notice much of a difference. To be honest, I was thinking I could have left the stock bar alone. Then I hit it hard. I am so disappointed that I didn't do this as the first upgrade to my...

    North Carolina

    Greetings Spyderlovers, I will be heading down to Raleigh, NC soon for a work trip. I'll be there for two weekends. Any ideas for fun after work hours? I would love to try the tail of the dragon but that is a five hour ride west so I am not sure I'll be able to do that. I have to stay...

    F3 Aux light

    Has anyone found a plug and play replacement for the F3 aux lights to make it brighter white? I have to swap sides on mine still because of the 'pillar of light' and I would love to change the bulbs to less yellow looking ones while I have the panels off.

    Just watched the flatbed take her away.

    Well, I hate to say it but the fun lasted about 150 miles. Last night I started the bike and I could hear a grinding noise near the bottom of the motor housing. I took a video of it and sent it to my dealer today. They sent it to BRP and they think the cam belt tensioner is bad. So... off she...

    Got her today.

    I ordered my F3-S way back in January. Crate showed up last Friday. The dealer called and told me the fog lights are on back order but they have everything else. He wanted to know if I wanted to wait for the fog lights or have them assemble it now and bring it back later for the lights. I...

    New Filter Cap Bolt issue

    Hi guys. I took it apon myself to put on the new cap kit today while changing the oil. When I was putting the new cap back on I grabbed the wrong set of bolts (the ones for the motor cap) and put them in. They both made a little popping sound and just spun and spun. Took them out and there was a...

    Electrical Arc

    I had the spark plugs replaced a couple weeks ago. after a few days I started to hear a clicking sound when I was at idle. As the days past. the clicking became much more frequent and the RPM's would drop off. I realized the clicking had to be an arc. The sound comes from the right side of the...

    Front Bearing and Hub

    Hi Guys, A couple weeks ago I had the misfortune to almost be run off the road by a car. During this the right wheel dropped into a hole in the road between an exit ramp and Route 95. It was not a pot hole. It looked like someone had started using a backhoe to dig up the asphalt. The right front...

    Spyder goes Boom.

    So... I did the Ride of Reflection today with the Warriors' Watch and a small group of us got separated from the pack after we stopped to help someone. I was pulling out from a stop light as we were leaving and the Spyder started shifting funny, like it didn’t want to go into gear. (2010-SE5)...

    Bad news and good news

    Bad News: Went out this morning and took the cover off the Spyder only to find some idiot hit the left front fender. It had to be someone who lives here in the complex but I didn't see it happen so the police had to write it up as a hit and run. Parts alone will be almost $400. I have not had it...

    High Idle RPM

    I have talked to the dealer and they say no one has reported this. Sometimes when I come to a full or partial stop and the Spyder (SE-5) down shifts to first gear it will stay at around 1450 RPM but if I let off the brake it will lurch forward and if I don't hit the brake again it will rev up...

    Greetings Spyder Lovers

    I rode my machine home from the dealer on January 19th 2011. It was 40 degrees in Southeast PA and I kept having to remind myself to stop grinning and pay attention to the road. I Love My Spyder. There is nothing like it. I am free... I was born for this. When I drive my car I feel like I...
