• 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.

    What are the required dimensions for a Spyder rear brake piston adjusting tool?

    I investigated all the tools like you but a simple pair of long needle nose pliers was all I needed. Mine had 30,000 miles when I did them.

    Anyone replaced Spark Plugs on F3-S? Is it really a big job?

    Mine only has 28,800 miles as a 2015 and I hope never.

    Any comparisons on Ryder Passenger Comfort Seat vs Ryker Sport style seats?

    My opinion and many others indicate the Ultimate seat should be compared.

    What is the number of hours required to assemble an RT?

    I never paid Assembly/Shipping on 16 Jet Skis and All but my 5th Can Am Ryker. Once Covid hit it became shipping and assembly for my last Ryker in 2022. Remember the "Nice to have" or Luxury fee we paid during Covid?

    Buying used - 2015 Spyder F3-S - is this milage/usage a concern?

    If they won't give the vin I would be suspicious? You are the one spending the $$. If they don't want your money then tough.

    Any feedback on aftermarket seats - Ultimate vs Corbin?

    I had the Ultimate on my GS, RT, Ryker, and F3. Love them!

    Buying used - 2015 Spyder F3-S - is this milage/usage a concern?

    I know you have been looking quite a while and maybe a late season sale could get you a new or leftover Spyder, then you don't have to worry about what was and what was not done. I got my 2015 SM6 for $16,000 in the fall of 2015. No delivery or prep fee back then! If you do get a 2015 SM6 make...

    Buying used - 2015 Spyder F3-S - is this milage/usage a concern?

    I would be very suspicious of what they said. But I have my F3 ?

    Is it possible to do an Oil Change without a lift?

    As I said above nothing wrong with extracting the 4 of 5 quarts , especially if you only do 3 thousand a year and change oil and filter every 12 months. Now the Ryker only has 3.5 quarts and you can only extract 1.5 quarts (Someone tried) SO I drain the ryker every year. The design of the 1330...

    Is it possible to do an Oil Change without a lift?

    After several Normal changes on my 2015 F3 SM6 last year, I ran it good (Long Ride) and then extracted 4 of the 5 quarts with my SeaDoo Oil extractor. You CAN extract 4 of the 5 quarts. Then I changed the filter and added 4 quarts. You may disagree, but that 1 quart left in the engine only went...

    Rear Parking Brake Not Releasing on 2019 F3-S - is this the correct TSB?

    Since I don't have too - I don't ever use the parking brake.

    My tips for working on Rykers!

    I discovered the same thing with the 8mm screws. Just Loosen the bottom enough to pull it up and out. I change the CVT filter every 3 months because it sucks in lots of stuff.

    Buying used - 2015 Spyder F3-S - is this milage/usage a concern?

    I have the 2015 SM6 and the clutch was Very Tough to pull (a First Year thing). We joked back then that you have to be Pop Eye!? My dealer installed a factory update vacuum assist on the clutch and it's more like an RT now. I would not want it without the vacuum assist.

    Thinking of moving to The Villages in FL - Any Spyder Service places nearby?

    I watched a lot of the videos, but I need the CT river to jet-ski on and the backroads to zoom around! If you don't mind the Florida heat, you're fine.

    Need new Tires for 2015 F3-S - what's everyone running?

    Just changed the front on my 2015 F3 with 28,000 miles. Had my local tire shop mount and balance for $60 and got the KR20 Kenda's from Amazon for $150. Tire date was Nov 2023 so pretty new. I replaced because of age because the stock still had a year or 2 more.

    Have been checking in daily for many years. FB groups are Not nearly as beneficial! Help if I can.

    1330cc Maintenance questions for a 2015 Spyder RT Limited

    My 2015 F3 has 25,000 miles and I did the brake flush and clutch flush, BUT the coolant was clear and still brought All five balls up to the top, so I said coolant next summer.

    Speed Bleeding 2015 F3- How to do without buds!

    I dodged a Big bullet! It appears the original bleeder assembly is 2 part. For less than $20 I can get the two part bleeder assembly which probably contains the original dark colored bleeder pictured so I don't have to buy a $350 Caliper!!

    Speed Bleeding 2015 F3- How to do without buds!

    Thanks! Its time to back it in the corner and take the left fender off and access all the ways I have seen on YouTube. It can sit a while Thanks to my Ryker and once its out I'm going to do a good one man bleed with the stock bleeders.

    Speed Bleeding 2015 F3- How to do without buds!

    Well I did the left front and the speed bleeder (Non SS) broke off?? Why do I always learn the hard way. I put the wheels back on and made sure not to touch the ignition. What now. I can reach the internal part of the bleeder with my drill without taking of the fender But what is the preferred...
