• 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 did you do to your Spyder today?

    Here's what the plugs looked like at 57,000 miles. The central electrodes look great, there is some wear of the ground side electrodes. I wasn't having any issues but they were long past the recommended change interval. Based on previous spark plug discussions here, I think I made the right...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Replaced the spark plugs on my 2020 F3S. Fun job. Lot's of stuff to take apart to get to them. All back together with only 3 extra screws!

    Looking for new Comms - what do you use?

    I had the UClear Motion Infinity sets for snowmobiling and then put them on our Spyder helmets for the summer. They worked well but in time had problems with their flimsy connectors and the rubber parts eventually disintegrated. Most of my friends had Sena's so I purchased a set of Sena 50S...

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

    Try flipping the Innov mount rectangular metal block over. The hole for the pivot is not centered. If it's upside down you won't have the full range of motion. Ask me how I know this...

    Forever mystified by Can Am's lack of style...

    Back in 2019 when I was researching which Spyder to purchase, I decided that the F3-S Special Series was the one for me. At the time, I really would have preferred an all black model but the SS only came in the Titanium metallic with the bright orange frame. It was a bit loud for my taste...

    Any experiences you can share about Elka vs Wilber rear shocks?

    I have an Elka Stage 5 rear shock on my F3S. It has remote adjust-ability for high and low speed compression and spring pre-load. I change the settings when I switch between riding two-up with my wife or if I'm solo. Sometimes, but rarely, I can reach down while I'm riding and adjust the high...

    FedEx is the worst!!!

    As long as you're not in desperate need for the package, there is a certain "entertainment factor" watching what happens with a FUBAR situation like this.

    Anthony Joshua/Jake Paul 'boxing' match

    I think Paul was just hoping he could land a lucky blow. But Joshua was just too good a boxer to let that happen.

    Look at this forecast for the coming week here in CT! Yeah, I'll be riding. I was out the other day and it was 32 degrees and I was perfectly comfortable in my snowmobile gear.

    What has been your experience with Tire Plug Kits?

    A couple of years ago, I came back from a snowmobile saddlebag trip to find my trailer had a flat. I used a plug type to fix it and it has been fine ever since.

    It's absolutely a beautiful clear day here in Connecticut today. 1 to 3 inches of snow forecast for the weekend. I'll be taking the bike out for a ride today. High of 34 degrees F.

    FedEx is the worst!!!

    I've had similar problems with FedEx on big box items. UPS is much better. I've also had a bad experience with warranty service from the items purchased at Home Depot or Lowes. From now on I'll buy from a small local power equipment dealer if I can.

    Which AfterMarket fuel filter do you use for your F3?

    My buddy had a leak on one of his fuel lines on his 2015 F3S. These things are reaching the age where you really have to inspect everything more closely now.
