• 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.

Shades of Red?

I think the red color being used on the 2016 F3-T is a different shade of red than was used last year on the F3 models. Was it called "Magna Red" last year? The red color listed for the RT's and the F3-T is "Intense Red." What they called red last year looked orange to me, so I like the Intense red better. Speaking of color, what do you think of the orange bars etc. on the Magnesium colored F3-T?

:welcome: Glad you found our little corner or the web!

Haven't kept up on all the different reds BRP has come out with because they are different every year. Have to admit though, last year the F3 red did look orange to me, but it was a nice look.

IMHO, magnesium (grey) is a neutral color and goes with just about any other color, orange included.

It all boils down to what you think about the color combination. Everyone has their own taste in vehicles and colors. You're going to ride it, pick the colors you like best!

:D That thing IS awful pretty; isn't it? :D

Just remember: Len could have one ready for you at SpyderFest... :2thumbs:

Your right....

Naming a color is like naming a race horse..:roflblack: not two can be alike. I always like to find the color before it got a name...Welcome to the spyder world and the place to help you understand it . I did not give the color much thought most important was availability. I wanted to ryde NOW..!! :ohyea::ohyea: I can learn to live with the color or change it. But if you can order one get it the way you like it......some dealers will swap panels.....:thumbup:

Yeah I know Len could. Planning to visit Pitbull as little as possible. I need to replace the cage this year.

Yes on the email from Brent; already replied.
 
The red color per the BRP webpage, IMO, beautiful. I have seen pictures of similar :spyder2:'s in magazine reviews that look like a totally different shade of red.

Printers inks don't necessarily match actual. The proof is in actually seeing the color in sunlight. I am still waiting here. :popcorn::popcorn:

Last year it was called Can-Am Red. The Can-Am red frame on the magnesium F3-T looks stunning. My F3-S has that colour scheme and I love it. :yes:
