• 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.

    Hands going numb some... Ideas why? Any fixes?

    You and your wife may also be riding with your wrists in a dorsal flex position (wrist flexed upward) this places pressure on the radial nerve and will cause numbness. Try positioning the handlebars and/or hands so that your wrist is in a more straight position and see if this helps.

    Does your F3-S burble, too?

    Deceleration backfire (burbles) is mostly caused by O2 and unburned fuel in the exhaust. Check for a leak at the gaskets, it is possibly sucking in air when decelerating.

    Anyone suggest any plug'n play additional rear lighting for F3-T?

    I installed Spyderpops LED kit on the back of my 17 F3-T shortly after I bought it. About a year later one of the LED strips got cut and quit working. I messaged Pops inquiring about just purchasing a replacement for the piece that I had damaged. He sent me a replacement in two days at no...

    Bajaron Sway bar

    I had an RT sway bar on my F3T from the dealer. The Baja Ron was an improvement over that upgrade.

    F3T Rear air suspension

    Buckskin, there were a couple of threaded fittings in the manual fill air bag system on my 17 F3T (other models may be different). It was the top fitting or the first one after the schader valve assembly that had the gross air leak on my bike. That said the other fittings are assembled the same...

    F3T Rear air suspension

    I have a 17 F3T and was really frustrated with the air suspension leaking down every few days. So when I had my rear apart to change out the tire I pulled the air suspension bag and the associated tubing out. Out of curiosity I inflated the bag up and submerged it in a tank of water. No bubbles...

    2016 F3 Limited air valve under passenger seat??

    You should have this decal under your passenger seat with this information on it. It shows the airbag pressure recommended for the load being carried. I weight just under 250lb and maybe have 10lbs of gear in the bags, so I run about 50psi in my airbag.

    F3 Signature Light, Nice, but don't buy!

    So basically the problem is not really with the Signature Light, but with your dealer. I've had mine for over a year and a half with no problem. I did have a Spyderpops LED rear light kit that one side shorted out after about 6 months and he sent me a replacement quickly at no charge. If only...

    Handlebar options to push the bars away from you (taller rider)

    Another option you might consider is an Ultimate Tall Boy seat, it moves you back an inch. Combined with my pegs in the 5 position it made everything more comfortable. ;)

    Garage door opener issues

    I did the same thing using a 19mm Marine grade momentary switch. It's solid black and fits perfectly in the hole where the heated grip switch would go if I had that option on my F3-T. I velcroed the garage remote to the side of the tank under the side panel.

    17,000 Miles and the front pulley is history!

    Preventive Maintenance with Loctite 648 I used an old steering wheel puller I had to remove my front sprocket. Large grade 8 washers behind on 3/8" bolts run through the holes in the sprocket, and an old bushing from my junk drawer over the center of the output shaft to protect the threads and...

    F3-T Poor Radio Reception

    I've always had poor reception on the radio on my 2017 F3-T. When I got the bike I had read several posts complaining of poor reception and just assumed it was the nature of the beast. Today while doing some work to her I noticed this electrical ring terminal not connected to anything and kind...

    Does my 2017 F3T have a heat problem?

    I have a pre-muffler delete pipe on my F3-T and have no problem with heat coming up. Len at Pitbull recommended it to prevent any problems with heat.
