• 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 windshield will fit? Also looking at longer foot boards. Any thoughts?

I have a '23 F3 Limited SES. I really like my 15-inch Freedom Windshield. I even liked the stock windshield, but not out on the highway. Guessing the Freedom would also fit the F3S?

I'll make a suggestion. I had a 2020 F3 limited with a factory windshield (a shorty looking windshield). My current ride is a 2023 RT limited. The RT windshield is much taller. For me, hands down, I prefer the F3 short windshield over the factory RT windshield even cruising 12 hours on the interstate. Give yourself some seat time before spending dollars on something you may not like. I had factory "long" running boards on both spyders and really like them. They are easy to move your feet around to find comfortable positions making the ride more comfortable. Whatever you end up purchasing make sure to save your old parts in the event you want to go back to original.
 
I have the same Spyder as Purpleon3 and I personally like the stock windshield. If I could change one thing about it, it would be tinted slightly.

Check out Gustafssons plastics, they have a selection of tints and lenghts of windshield, I made my own floorboards and the description is in the DIY section if you are a handy type of guy. Good luck with your build.
 
OEM = Original Equipment Manufacturer. In other words, the windshield it came with from CAN-AM.
Thanks, yes I know that, but when someone says OEM or Stock windshield I have to wonder because an F3S comes with a Stock/OEM gauge spoiler, not a windshield - unless I got ripped off! lol.

As an RT ryder, I didn't know that.
Looking at the CAN-AM website, I see the Gauge Spoiler as one of the Wind Protection Accessories, along with a Route 129 Windshield that is 15.5" tall (39 cm) for US $400, and a Blue Ridge Windshield for US $460, which is 21.25" tall (54 cm).

All three are technically OEM, even if they aren't included as original equipment on the F3.
