• 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 do you prefer to use for lifting your Spyder/Ryker?

    I used car ramps for changing oil, a floor jack for removing front wheels, etc., and rented heavy duty ramps from Home Depot for install BajaRon sway bar, as we have a truck.

    Innovv K6 install - Need some hints for K6 camera mounting. Anyone have any suggestions, or have used the Go Pro style mount?

    Innovv sent me their GoPro mount by air, so I got it in less than a week. The mount is great, as less of a footprint, and can easily adjust the angle. I attached a photo of front camera installed, and a photo as I was leaving my driveway. Rear camera worked better when I removed plastic film...

    Innovv K6 install - Need some hints for K6 camera mounting. Anyone have any suggestions, or have used the Go Pro style mount?

    Update: I ordered the K6 Go Pro mount, but it comes from China, and could be a month delivery time. I went to Home Depot and picked up a toilet levelling kit that had 4 plastic/silicone wedges. I was able to use 2 of them to mount the camera level. I have taped the camera to the ‘glove box’, as...

    Innovv K6 install - Need some hints for K6 camera mounting. Anyone have any suggestions, or have used the Go Pro style mount?

    We have had bad luck with vehicles running into us over the past year. The truck got hit in January 2025, with repair being $11,000. Last week, my wife got hit in our Subaru. Fortunately, our dash cams caught both instances, and we were absolved of any wrongdoing. As such, I thought that the...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Installed Baja Ron sway bar. I removed tailgate from our truck and rented ramps from Home Depot. A call to Daniel from Baja Ron’s aided in install.

    Anyone installed Luxemoto's LED Headlight Assembly? Any feedback?

    Does the Luxemoto kit include the accessory power harness to connect to the fender turn signals on F3 bikes 2019 and newer? Thanks

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Replaced factory windshield with Show Chrome windshield. Bike not licensed yet, but maybe in the next few weeks. Should be more comfortable, especially for winter rides.

    Not sure about dealer sales, but dealer has a 2017 F3-L with about 5000 miles for sale for $19,999 CDN. We are in the rainy season, so not prime riding season.

    Can You See Me Now? New lights fitted.

    Cagers do sometimes see you but don't care as they are bigger than you.

    Buying new 2023 RTL from dealer… any concerns from it sitting that long?

    I would get the dealer to flush the brake system as part of any deal. My 2022 had been in a crate not long before I bought it. At first service, another dealer recommended brake flush due to age of vehicle, so I had it done at selling dealers expense.

    What could cause this Squeal on starting out in first gear?

    My 2019 Spyder F3 had a squeal around 2500 rpm. Dealer adjusted belt to no avail, but then changed the pulley and resolved the issue. My newly acquired 2022 F3 had some squeal about same rpm. Dealer again adjusted belt to no avail. I took a video of the tach, with the squeal audible, and...

    Wrapped my 2021 RT Limited

    That’s a good price Peter. I was quoted $650 Cdn/ to wrap clear Xpel on the frunk and saddlebag area, and I doubt that any panels are removed.
