• 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.

    Battery/Starting slow spin - is this common & why doesn't it start like a normal motorcycle?

    Actually the OEM spec is a 350 CCA battery, the Haijiu was 300 CCA so that is why so many failed within the first couple of months and if you replace the failed battery with another 300 CCA battery you can expect similar results. The battery should meet the spec as shown in post #2. IMO. During...

    My first impressions of the 2023 Spyder RTL

    Welcome to the forum. Enjoy the new ride. If you haven't done so read the DIY section when you have time, there is a bunch of good info about mods etc. If you haven't used cruise yet go ahead and try it. Cruise should help you relax your grip and relax more when are learning to pilot the new...

    Has anyone removed/modified the Airbox on an F3 to improve intake airflow? Ideas?

    The airbox on my 22 F3S draws outside air from the left side and the hole for the incoming air is larger than the duct to the throttle body so I can't see an after market anything that would improve that. I am not aware of any after market air intakes for your machine. FWIW ;)

    Spending some time not riding, should I disconnect my BS Lithium battery?

    Disconnect one lead off the battery, Lifepo4 batteries discharge so little that nine months is not a problem and do not leave it attached to a charger/maintainer. FWIW.

    Has anyone added Marvel Mystery Oil - any comments?

    Isn't that what the additives in the top tier gasoline packages are supposed to do? Buy the best grade of gasoline you can afford/get and forget the additives. JMO :unsure:

    New member, thanks for having me - and where's a good place to get these things?

    If you have a princess auto store in your area you can get the copper washers in a kit and they have an O ring kit if not the right size check out their hydraulics section, enjoy the ride. ;)

    Canyon Redrock vs '22 F3S - Demo day ride/comparison

    I went for a second demo ride on June 11, both highway and city streets; and I decided that although I really like the Smart Shox suspension etc. the pricing was too much for me to make a change. Good luck to those who do make the purchase. 🤑

    New member, thanks for having me - and where's a good place to get these things?

    Welcome to the forum. 1) Try calling GP Cycleworks formerly GP plastics and discuss your windshield requirements with them. The 20" tinted in my picture is from them. They are located in Florida and this windshield reduced the wind buffeting a bunch. There are others as mentioned, but none in...

    My experience with my Canyon's Off Pavement Performance. What are you experiencing?

    If you are worried about a flat tire, buy yourself a portable air compressor with a plug kit, or a bag of slime, and you should be fine. (y)

    Anyone other than BRP make a 2024 F3S Windshield? If not, why?

    Did you try GP cycleworks (formerly Gustafson) they may have one or make one for you? :unsure:

    What is the Correct Garmin for my '16 RT Ltd?

    What just happened? Two weeks old: Engine shut down, VSS Error.

    If you barely touched the kill switch and it shut off than I would be checking out the kill switch by working it on and off many times to see if that fixes its sensitivity. There have been other posts on here where others have had a no start by accidentaly touching the kill switch even at speed...

    How do I get a new key for 2020 F3 Rear Cowl lock?

    If you are referring to storage under the rear seat you should be able to open it by rotating the ignition key to the tool position. If it has the painted cowl installed it is a regular key (mine is a Southco RS046). Check with your local Can am dealer and have the VIN# handy they may be able...

    How do I select and set-up Red Rock custom mode?

    I agree, I read the owners manual and it mentioned that there was a custom mode but not how to save or set it up??:unsure:

    Front Tires wearing on the inside - aligned TWICE! What's next?

    My SWAG is that your ride height is wrong. If your ride height is too low, the bike will have excessive toe out, resulting in wandering steering and wear on the inside of the tires. Were you on the bike, or was the bike loaded to your weight (1 or 2-up) during the alignment? If not, you will...

    Canyon Redrock vs '22 F3S - Demo day ride/comparison

    Our local dealer had a demo day ride for the Spyders today so I booked a Canyon Redrock, I had test driven a Sea to Sky last year. Canyon Redrock Seat is higher and the cushion is harder, you sit more upright and your pegs and legs are right below your butt. If you have occasional 2 up riding...

    Hit something and cracked the lower part of the front grill - what are my choices, new grill or something else?

    You can buy the lower part of the grill and it is not very expensive, you can find the part on the online parts guide or order it from the nearest dealer and it only takes a few minutes to replace. :) Here is my how to: Replacing the front (cadre) 705009330 on a 22 F3S in the how to section.

    2016 RTS Right front tire wobble/shakes - any thoughts?

    There are 3 things that can be causing the observed tire/rim wobble: 1) The tire has sidewall defect from manufacturing or road damage 2) The rim is bent from manufacturing or road damage 3) The hub has a maching defect or bent spindle?? Raise the front wheel off the ground so that you can...
