• 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.

    Are there LED replacements for 2024 OEM Fog Lights?

    My choice was the Tricled fog/daylight running lights. Easy installation, mostly plug and play. Slingmods have an installation video.

    Hope I'm not done riding my Spyder for the year?!

    In Arizona, October is the start of the riding season. At one fifteen to one twenty, it’s just too hot in the summer for me to enjoy.

    My first really, really close call on the Spyder

    I’ve only had one close call on my F-3. My group was riding on a two lane road and was passing a Jeep with a bike rack on top. I was riding tail gunner of thirteen bikes and as I approached the Jeep to pass, he apparently saw his buddy pulled over on the opposite side of the road unloading his...

    Spyder vs Georgia State Patrol

    As the old saying goes: “you can outrun the cops, but not Motorola”.

    So, how fast can a spyder go and safely make a sharp right turn at an intersection?

    I can easily out corner all the Harleys, Indians and Gold Wings I ride with on my base F-3. Stand on the outside peg, lean in and push the handlebar, don’t roll the throttle.

    Anything good to say about the Blue Ridge windshield?

    I started with a Blue Ridge. The quality was good. However at six foot two it dumped the wind right on my chest at freeway speeds. I replaced it with a thirty two inch F-4 Custom.

    What's best for Cold weather winter storage? Fuel additive? Battery care? Rodents?

    It’s the reverse here in Arizona, we store in the summer and ride in the winter. But I use Stabil in the tank and a battery maintainer.

    So many complaints about the Spyders. Anyone with no problems?

    I’ve never had a problem with my ‘15 base F-3. Hope I didn’t just jinx myself.

    Is the base F3 the sportiest model?

    It’s not hard to add cruise to a base F-3

    Any F3 owners with Shad Bags added Taillights? Need details?

    I’ve gotten used to them and now actually like the Spyder better with them on than off. It’s now the non-riding season here in Arizona so I’m considering taking off the adjustable backrest and adding the Shad top case to match the saddlebags. I've been lurking, lost my password, and was too...

    Almost had the big one yesterday - pallet fell of a truck into our path!

    I used to work for AT&T in California, one evening as I was driving back to the garage, my van shuddered, and I saw the entire tread of my driver’s side rear tire fly all the way across three traffic lanes and rebound into the number two lane. I pulled over and checked, the tire was a recap as...

    Need new Tires for 2015 F3-S - what's everyone running?

    I just went back to Kenda’s on the front. The car tires were just not grabbing in corners, and I was tired of sliding five or ten feet before they bit in and started steering.

    Nanny engaged the outside brake today - what a strange feeling!

    Today I was pushing my F-3 very hard downhill passing other bikes and for the first time the outside brake was engaged by the nanny. What a strange feeling while going hard around a corner. It took a few seconds to realize that something hadn’t broken.

    Driving Practice, or Attempted Murder by Spyder?

    When I took the Arizona Trike course, all the other riders were total newbies. None had even sat on a Spyder before. I had been riding for three years in CA on my F-3 and used it in the course.
