• 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.

2015 Can-Am Spyder F3 – First Ride Test Report

Great overview of the F3. I hope your prediction is true and the F3 does take hold of the cruiser market. Time will tell.
 
Lamont,
Any idea what peg and bar settings you have on the red F-3 in the pic at the bottom of your post. It gives a good look at the handle bar and leg positions. A little better look than the stick people in the catalogue! :D

My feet were at 5 but not sure on the bars
 
Maybe one of the folks that test rode or Lamont can offer some help here. My dealer said he sees on spec sheet, but isn't 100%
 
sledmaster....thanks for your personal review on the F3.....lots of good information......I look forward to sit in the bike and not on the bike......I will be testing the F3 November 6th...hoping they allow me to take it out on the road........I'm only 5 foot and hoping the seat position is good...along with handlebar reach.....right now my Corbin seat I had made for my RS and now on my ST was moved forward 2 inches and wish Corbin would of moved it 3 inches forward.....anyway....I'm really excited to test the F3......there will be pics and a report.....

You would be right at the A-1 specification. The UFit is supposed to be designed to ideally fit the 5th percentile female size (5' 0") up to the 95th percentile male size (6' 3"). So 5 foot tall would be handlebars A and feet 1, should fit you well. Will be curious to hear how you like it!

Since I was just over 6'3" BRP really wanted to know how I fit the other end of their spectrum. I was pleasantly surprised at how well the D-5 settings felt, it truly was just like it had been fit to me.
 
adjustability

what is adjustable regarding the foot controls? shifter? pegs? brake pedal? how does that work?:popcorn: sorry if that was covered elsewere.
 
It's wait and see.....have a month till I test ride......I'm ever so hopeful....could always do adjustments with aftermarket seat....I'm use to things being to big....I've always found a way around it....my Sky has an adjustable seat ...not only forward and back ...but up and down....it's going to work

All of it, the foot pegs are adjustable along the spar tubes, with five different lengths of linkages for the brakes and shifter, so the positions can be set to one of five positions to better fit 90% of the rider heights in the general population. Moving the pegs on the tubes is the easy part, it is the linkage lengths that are more involved. To change the linkages for the shifter and brakes seems to be about a 5-10 minute process from what I have witnessed. The first picture is from a semi-auto so it doesn't show the shifter linkage, but the second picture is from a manual and does show the shifter, but not the actual linkage.
