• 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.

    Starlock Locking Washers or Push nuts?

    Thanks for the ideas and PM's! So I tried a lot of tool suggestions. The cheap snap ring tool from Harbor Freight was very helpful. In normal position, it has a spring that pushes the two pins back together, so squeezing the handle would spread them apart wider than the washer, allowing them...

    Starlock Locking Washers or Push nuts?

    I was installing some new lighting on my 2017 F3 front fenders to replace the existing reflectors. The instructions were vague except to remove the reflectors... So after removing the fender mounting bolts, I turned over the long plastic strip that houses the wiring and reflectors only to find...

    What about what you don't you like about the Spyder?

    Same reason my 2012 RTS L did, and my 2017 F3T L didn't. But, the Zumo isn't that great anyway for the almost $1k that they want to charge for the upgrade... Personally I saw this as an opportunity, and have gone with the aftermarket Garmin 61 LMT-S, certainly larger at 7" and much better...

    DON'T DRILL YOUR KEY JUST YET

    Had one on my 2012 RTSL when bought new. Got one on my 2017 F3L when bought new 2 months ago...

    What about what you don't you like about the Spyder?

    For me, coming from a 2012 RTL to a 2017 F3L, 1. Stereo rear speaker balance control seems to be missing. 2. Glove box doesn't lock now. 3. Frunk is the size of a teaspoon (OK exaggeration but barely fits 1 helmet upside down) 4. Brake pedal height position (this could have been corrected in the...

    What about what you don't you like about the Spyder?

    Yes, what is the point of being in Neutral? Fuel economy? I think not! I think also the compression sequence of motor is charging your battery if you are coasting in gear as well isn't it?

    2017 F3 Bag liners

    Does anyone have any successful experience with liners for their 2017 F3L? Can-Am wants pricey $$ for theirs. I am thinking at least the saddlebags and the frunk. Perhaps the trunk too... I see Hopnel HCL has some liners they advertise on Big Bike Parts, but the dimensions don't look right...

    Tricled horn install question

    Not sure what year F3 you have, but I just went through this with them as well. If you have a 2017 F3L, then you may not be able to install as per instructions! I went back and forth with them several times that my bracket does not look like the pictures on the installation sheet, and finally...

    Covers for 2017 F3T-L options?

    Yes, I realize that cross country you will get more inclement weather, and that is a good point. If I encounter that type of weather then it is understood about washing before placing a cover. But, like you, I live in CA. We do mostly CA Rydes, try not to be traveling on hiway trips due to...

    Covers for 2017 F3T-L options?

    Yes I have seen the 1/2 cover for the 2017 F3L. But not really thinking it does much other than keep the occasional visiting people from sitting on it, which is good, but not really why I want a cover. The parts left out in the open, all have to be washed from the rain or dust that will...

    BUT THAT DOES NOT COVER THE 2017 F3 Limited. Because the 2017 has a trunk in the back! They have a half cover, but... We need an Ultragard FULL cover for the 2017 F3 L!

    Covers for 2017 F3T-L options?

    BUT THIS WILL NOT FIT A 2017 F3L! The 2017 L has a trunk! The ad specifically says it will not fit with a trunk!

    Do you have this on your F3 L? It looks like it might not make it over the trunk...

    Covers for 2017 F3T-L options?

    Thanks for the referral, I find it weird that it shows a picture of an RT with this cover... They do not declare which model it is for... I have an Ultraguard cover that I had on my RT, but it doesn't fit (tried to be sure before I purchased anything) It looks pretty loose in the picture, but...

    Covers for 2017 F3T-L options?

    Recently I purchased this cover for my new 2017 F3T-L. The cover is a Can-Am #219400768. It fits really well! The problem is it fits so snugly that it really takes some time to install and remove! I am searching for a cover that I can slip on and remove swiftly for quick trips out of the...

    full outside cover for an F3 with top case.

    I don't think it would work. I too recently purchased a new 2017 F3T-L, and had a cover left for my 2012 RTS, they are no way even close to the same size - didn't fit. 2017's have the top case... If you tow it though, there is an excellent cover that Can-Am sells (or eBay or Amazon) #219400768
