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.
Anybody tried the F3 occasional 2 up shock?

a lot of us have swapped out the stock rear shock with the 2-up. If you search this forum you'll find several threads on it from when it became available. There are pictures of the 2 shocks side by side that show the difference in the springs.
I ride solo 99.9% of the time and it was well worth it to swap it out just for me. If you ride 2 up, you should definitely swap them.

:agree:
I ride 100% solo and got one.. only because I didn't want to spring (pun intended) $1,100 for an Elka.
That stock shock is complete crap.. bounces up and down like a pogo stick and contributes to frame fatigue.. which we all know they had to 'fix'.

I just bought an F3-t... and I thought it was me... it is a little bouncy. I do ride 2 up at least once a week. I will have to look for the 2-up thread.

Your F3-T has a rear air shock. You add air manually with an air valve under the passenger seat. Check your owners manual.

I've been playing with that... thought I was missing something to replace it. Gotcha

Can someone Settle the argument please? I was talking to my cousin yesterday (we both have 2015 F3S') and he was saying that the air shock on the F3T will fit the F3S because they are all F3. I said the T and L were different. Couldn't get him to believe me. Can someone confirm?

I agree, they are different... The t has reshaped frame somehow to enable it to tow (or perhaps just to enable brp hitch to fit) and from what I've learned the t air shock will not fit the s models.
I hope I am wrong...
ps I have the two up shock on my f3s, the basic one they (still!) fit is well below par. Btw I ride one up and am not a large person. Wouldn't ride without it.
