• 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.

    Any recent info on Madstad Wind Shields? Impressions & Opinions?

    I strongly agree with Troop! I have the clear version on my 2015 F3-S, and am very satisfied with it.. Plus it is readily removed if needed for storage or another reason.

    Winter Storage - any problems if I remove the battery?

    Most of the above except the use of poisons. Don't forget to cover the exhaust with a plastic bag and rubber bands! It's too tempting a home for some critters!

    Handlebar Vibration

    I would definitely switch to Federal Formosas like I did on my 2015 F3. If they are still giving any vibration after being balanced, try the Centramatic balancers from Lamonster. Works for me!

    New here, with 'new to me' 2015 F3-S & questions?

    I have used the Lamonster driver backrest for a number of years on the same year and model as yours. He is a great source of accessories, and tests everything he sells!

    How to quiet my exhaust..?

    Have a '15 F3s and unlike quite a few Ryder's, I would like to make my stock exhaust (with cat) a bit less noisy. It seems to have gotten louder over the years (16k miles), and it makes it harder to hear my headphones. It doesn't help that I have tinnitus, either. Any suggestions?

    Opinions on fitting an Inside belt guard to an F3?

    Unfortunately, it looks like the pictures are all from an RT. I can't see how it should work on my F3!

    Did you ever install the Inside Belt Guard? If so can you shoot a picture or two for me to help with my install? Thanks!

    Blue Ridge Windshield on the F3 = Crazy backdraft

    That windshield has been criticized for as long as I can recall on this forum..I went with the Madstad. They will give you great customer service and advice!

    Turn Signals

    A quick "double push" seems to work best for me.

    It's home :)

    On my 2015 F3S, the Tender cable can be routed up from behind the battery and out to be zip ties to the inside of the frame (I used the right, throttle side). So put that drill bit away!

    When you master the turns using your legs, that's when the fun really begins!

    Micro-Start PPS (Emergency Battery) Test Results

    I had bought the XP5 Mini a few years ago and recently noticed that it was swelling up. This means that it is unsafe to use as stated by the manufacturer. Since it was no longer covered by the one year Warranty, I was only offered 20 percent off on a new unit. Buyer beware! I ended up getting a...

    Belt damage

    The fact that the swingarm is round, I am told, seems to be the issue regarding the belt guard question.

    F3 Hand Guards

    This thread has inspired me to pull my old Barkbusters VPS's from the dust bin to mount on my F3s. Had to order a new mounting kit, though!

    From the crate setup

    Has anyone had a Spyder with aftermarket wheels aligned? I had a problem getting an alignment because of this recently..

    Frunk Question....

    Remove the push pin fasteners with a thin blade screwdriver (or the correct tool!) and pull out the plastic liner. After you access the battery, do yourself a favor and a run leader out to behind one of the front tires so you have it there when you need it.
