• 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.

Recommend any Videos on brake pad replacement?

Anyone know of a trusted video on replacing front and rear brake pads on a spyder, specifically a 2019 F3L?

Thanks

The fronts are easy - remove the wheel and there they are. Unscrew the pin that holds the spring clip (remember and/or take a photo of the clip's orientation) remove it and then slide the pads out. If you are replacing them, loosen the lid of the reservoir to make moving the pistons back easier.
The rear caliper needs to be removed to access the pads. 2 bolts hold it on. Remember that you do not push that piston in, you turn it clockwise ONLY. If you have Bajaron's nifty tool, that's easy, otherwise, you can use a needle nose pliers in the 2 recesses in the piston.
 
I'm with you. Those videos help me, for sure.
I can't count the times YouTube saved my fat. The best was when I had to rewire a 4-way switch (that's 3 switches controlling the same thing) and all the wires were black.
