• 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.

    Touring pants

    Super pleased with my Carlsbad gear. They have a cut that give you ease of movement for aggressive spyder riding. I prefer to wear my Carlsbad pants to wearing jeans, they are cooler and give better heat protection from the engine. The jacket is not as spyder friendly, the slashed arm vents only...

    2015 F3s steering

    We have two f3s’s. the steering on the 16 great, the 15 is like a truck. Apparently this is a manufactured difference not a mechanical issue. Is anyone aware if this can be updated to a 16 setup?

    Any recommendations for Dealing with Hand/Wrist Pain?

    I have the same issue, with a touch of Carpole tunnel thrown in. I placed a throttle buddy on both handle bars to support my wrist, also a great way to relax your grip which agrevates the problem.

    wobble at high speed and curves

    It sounds like you may be coasting in the curves and bends, slam her down a gear or two and hit the throttle. One must not attempt to drive a spider, one must ryde it!

    Sway bar or new front shocks

    Reply I have two f3s’s a 15 with a RT sway bar, and a 16 with up grade fox shock , podium 2 I believe. They both have fox rear shock. They ride quite similarly, the swaybar hold its line slightly better thru a curve. I defently needed the upgrade swaybar on my 15 to compliment my riding...

    Doctors in Canada think they make too much and others make too little

    We can argue freedom or socialism forever, this is a moral decision. I commend them for their balanced position in light of a larger problem. One must always remember no form of government will succeed without moral underpinnings.

    $10K Spyders for 2019

    10K Spyder If one looks at what Brp. did in the PWC line with the spark, this is almost a done deal. Affordable ,low power and fun, exactly what a roadster should be.

    An explanation why BRP use a softer swaybar.

    I ask a lot of questions during Homecoming, while not an official answer by any means, one explanation I was given was that a softer swaybar will give the spyder an under steer. Under steer lessen the likely hood of the rearend swinging out and letting the trike go into spin and loosing...

    Anyone else notice the excessive amount of throttle twist/rotation required??

    Yes I did notice this as well. Got me a throttle buddy, works well in so many ways. Easy to set, easy to adjust, and a comfortable wrist position any speed. I have found little reason to use the cruise since I installed it.

    Sachs Big Bore - Elka stage 4 - 2016 F3-L

    Not Pete but, I changed my standard shock to the Fox shock option. Adjustments are great but the spring itself is useless. I weigh 200lbs and t the muffler still can hit the road if their is a dip in the road surface. I hope to install the heavier spring BRP offers this spring. The fact that...

    Lilly, the cute AT&T girl

    I'm confused about this trump thing. Are these progressive liberal women complaining about Trump going into the change room at a beauty contest not the same ilk that demanded acsess to the men change rooms of the NFL where naked men were showering.

    Does it ever calm down?

    How to kill the dreaded twitch Most of what is referred to as twitchyness unstable driving around corners is caused by coasting or a neutral throttle position, gear the beast down a couple gears lay into the throttle an she will be rock solid on most any curve.

    Our Spyder adds many attributes to motorcycling ,off hand I can't think of anything a Slingshot would add to say a Miata if you where willing to drive the Miata like a holigan.

    Do I really need a new swaybar?

    Why all the hate on OEM links. I was visiting a friend recently that ride BRP sleds and four wheelers. On inspection I seen they use the same plastic links my Spyder has. His machines see terrain and jumps climb over logs and what not all. I ask him if he kept spares in case I'd ever need one...
