• 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.

    Bad right leg

    Hi Jim, i purchased a 2016 F3s last year and haven't got round to selling a couple of parts that i removed, one was a set of foot boards and the other was a hand operated brake set up that the previous owner had fitted as he had no use of his legs. It fitted on the right hand side of the...

    Belt Tensioner

    I have recently fitted a damper from Doc Humphrey and it was straightforward to fit and works really well, but probably more important than that he is a great guy to deal with and I would highly recommend him :thumbup:. thanks Doc :clap:

    want a lift

    Hi Harry, take a look at my thread " lifting my spyder above my head " I fitted a single post lift to get my F3 above my car as I have limited floor space in my garage. It may not be exactly what you are after but may give you some ideas :2thumbs:

    Blind Passenger

    I would have thought that verbal communication through headsets would be the best option. You can then give her a running commentary on what is approaching so that she can at least be prepared for the road ahead in advance👍

    Lifting my Spyder above my head

    Hi and thanks for the PM. Having trouble with the pictures using PM so put them here This was the reinforced concrete base, 3500 lb mix reinforced with rebar and a minimum of 6" although I needed a raised plinth to get the required height so I had more than 12" in the end. This is the main...

    F3s Centre of mass

    I think I have ...... the pivot point is obviously forward compared to the centre of the Spyder so I have moved it back by 6 or 7 inches on the lift to get the weight more central to the lift and that is about as far as I can go due to the height restrictions. I'm sure it is fine as the lift is...

    Lifting my Spyder above my head

    Well I was quite lucky really as the house has a wrap around extension which means there was loads of roof space in the centre and far end of the garage but I still had to move some of the horizontal beams higher up into the roof space. The area where there is least height is just inside the...

    F3s Centre of mass

    Does anybody know the centre of mass or pivot point on the F3s? I store my Spyder on a lift above my car and would like to get the WEIGHT centred on the lift rather than just getting it in the middle by measuring. The weight is obviously going to be biased towards the front but where? Any...

    TricLeD Wide Vu mirrors are simply AMAZING and now available for F3's

    These look like they give a much better view and don't appear to have any distortion of the image. I have just sent a message to see if they ship to the UK, fingers crossed they do and I will soon have some on my F3s :yes:

    Spyder Sightings

    Spotted one at last Well after 1800 odd miles and 4 weeks I have spotted another Spyder:yes: It was an F3T in Burgundy near Ilfracoombe Devon. I guess they aren't as common over here in the Uk. I went to my dealer today OHG in Ilfracoombe to transfer the warranty into my name and pick up a...

    Lifting my Spyder above my head

    Thanks for the comments, it took quite a bit of careful measuring as the space in the front of the roof isn't that big. Had a nightmare actually importing the lift due to problems with other items in the same container that customs weren't happy with, leading to a delay of about 4 weeks in the...

    Pictures never the right way up

    Lifting my Spyder above my head

    I have got a full 8 inches of clearance between my car and the lift and even if the car is in off road height I have still got plenty of space so they can't make contact :thumbup:
