• 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.

    Latest BRP Safety Bulletins for Shaft Replacement (2019-12) and Shaft & Sprocket Replacement (2019-13) Recalls - Jan 2025

    My wife has a 2017 F3L that is within the mileage range for the recall. My question is, has anybody had the shaft actually fail? Both of our bikes are in storage for a few more weeks here in Minnesota. We have talked to the dealer, and they are going to be working on several Spyders that they...

    Test Drove A Goldwing Trike

    A friend had a Triglide in the early 2000's then went to a Stallion. He let me drive it and it was tough to like. The wind whips around the windshield and beats you up. When driving or parking it you couldn't tell where the front end was because of the design making it hard to figure when you're...

    Lame USPS - sending my items on a nice long road trip!

    I had a high school classmate that passed away and was cremated while away from home. His cremans were shipped home via USPS to his wife in Pennsylvania. They never arrived and USPS can't find them or give her any information. He died in February 2022. True story.

    Just had Cataract Surgery.

    I know what you mean, I had my right eye done on tuesday, September 3rd. I get the left one done on the 17th. It's nice not having to wear glasses all the time. I only need cheaters for reading and I can live with that.

    Most amount of miles/KM you have ridden in one day on the Spyder

    In 2018, I rode my brother back to Texas from Sturgis as he was suffering from cancer and my SIL asked me to escort him home. First day was 415 miles, second day was 450 miles and we stopped in Norman, Oklahoma. We parted ways the next morning at 6:30 am and I was home in my driveway at 8:45 pm...

    How long did it take to get your Ultimate Seat?

    My wife and I both have one on our F3Ls. Definitely worth every penny. They were ordered and shipped quickly. Definitely worth it in our opinions.

    Burning Pain in Shoulder Blades - seating, handlebars, or helmet? Any ideas??

    I had a similar experience and found out it was the handlebars. I switched to the short reach bars and that cured my problem. If you know of someone that has a set up similar to yours with different bars, see if you can go for a ride. Just my $.02 worth of info.

    What GPS are you using?

    I also use the Moto Pumps security lock for my XT. I have the LaMonster bracket and have left the XT mounted when I am away from my F3. I wear a doo rag head cover, so when I get off the spyder, I take it off and put it over the XT. Out of sight out of mind. Less prying eyes and fingers.

    UNSEEN DISABILITIES

    An update since I posted in February 2018, besides her two artificial hips my wife had breast cancer. She had surgery and then 16 rounds of chemo and 20 rounds of radiation. Her strength and stamina are not what they once were. I have had 2 more knee surgeries with one being a total replacement...

    Will Tri-Axis bars fit a 2011 RT?

    My wife put them on her 2010 RT when she had it. They should fit.

    What's the consensus on Kenda KR 20 rear tires? Better than stock?

    I put Vredestein Quadtrac 175/55R15 on the front and Riken Raptor HR 215/60R15 on the rear. I had the Kanines all the way around and didn't think that they were much better than the originals. I listened to Mike (BlueKnight911) and went from Minnesota to Buffalo, NY and back home and I was very...

    Anyone mounted a Tail Bag on the rear seat? Will it mess with the Nanny?

    I have used the First Gear 70-liter bag completely loaded for a two-week trip. I use two bungee cords, cross strapped to LaMonster's Bungee Buttons. I tighten the bag down and it has not had any effect on the nanny. I have done multiple long-haul trips like this and no problems.

    Does anyone have/carry an ICE - In Case of Emergency - Capsule?

    I have a medical ID app on the home page of my phone (I have an android). It's a free app and you can input everything a medical person needs to know in an emergency situation. I also wear a medical dog tag.

    Any recommendations for adding blind spot sensors to an F3?

    My wife and I have the same mirrors that ThreeWheels has on each of our F3Ls. They work great. I found them at Walmart.

    Anyone doctored their 2021 F3 Top Case Back Rest?

    Perhaps you could ride to an auto upholstery shop and see what they can do with some foam. Just a thought.
