Cannonball seat for Can Am Spyder F3, F3s and F3T

[@josephgolden1565]

Yesterday....I finally purchased a Cannonball Seat..it's a very nice seat ...I'm glad I brought it!

[@troy9er]

That seat looks nice. I had Arlen Ness front and back seats on my Valkyrie, they were 1 in comfort. The Ness seats also had a backrest that could be moved to the front seat when my wife didn’t ride with me. Loved it, they were expensive but worth it. We could ride a long time with no butt hurt!

Thank you so much for the reviews and videos. Watch them all the time and appreciate both the positives and negatives that you point out without knockin the spyder line. I have a 2019 Spyder F3 and after watching your review I decided to buy the Cannonball seat as well, and for the same reasons you stated. Just an FYI for readers, it was $622.04 tax and all for me here in the US. The video does not do the looks of the seat justice and that is not a fault of yours at all, all pictures I saw of it online were that way. To me it looks nice and seems well made. My main reason for purchase was because of my wife and how thin the seat was that came with it. This does have a lot more padding. I wish the stitching was black instead of white because my bike is black and neon green, so agree with you very much on that. I looked at many other seats and want to add that this is one of the few that is two parts. Most aftermarket seats are one complete seat with no way to seperate passenger from driver. I hope you read this whole reply because I do have a question that I can't find an answer to......... the passenger seat is very wobbly to me on the side that does not have the pin. Is there a way to fix that? I dont like that feature of the spyder at all and know it probably is not a big deal but I really dont like it and would like it fixed if possible. Please help if you know a way. Thanks for your videos keep up the great job!

Of course i read it all the way "down" . First of all thanx for nice words about reviews. Hmmm... that wobbling is annoying a lot of times. Also if you have the mono seat cowl its there :( what can help and it can sound like my sales efford is to have the fixed button that i do offer on my website. It helps a little even the main purposes its not to fix wobbling. What i do, when i am not 2up, i have one fixed button with little foam on it, so it works like a pillar and that way i could fix it 😉😉😉

[@ddjim216]

Wrap some electrical tape around the fingers at the front of the rear seat that slot in the front seat so there a snug fit helps a lot with the wobble

[@MOABMAN]

@@MartinTheVlogger thanks for feedback. Will have to wait on button purchase, just spent all my change on the new brush guard for bike. I will try to add foam in some key points tho, good suggestion. Keep up the great videos!

I like to go on long trips like you do on the beast. I like that sporty look and not the gold wing look of the RT. I took a trip from the east coast to the south on cbr 954rr. I've ridden over a 1000 miles one way on my cbr. I love that freedom. That's why the F3S is the choice I am going with.

Hi Martin thank you. You’re very helpful I ride my bike better now because of your videos thank you again

[@MartinTheVlogger]

Super love to hear that 💪💪💪💪

[@TADSkewd]

Hey Martin, do you know if this would fit newer F3S’s? The manufacturer has it listed for 2015-2019 but I don’t know why it wouldn’t work for 2023 F3 🤷‍♂️

[@MartinTheVlogger]

Hi, it works on all models on 98%. Its good seat, they have recently change the SN number and they have massive problems with delivery, so if you canbuy some dont wait. I wait for 5 sets for 10 months :(

[@TADSkewd]

@@MartinTheVlogger thanks for the reply!!

@TADSkewd 😉😉😉🤟💯

[@MartinTheVlogger]

Do you guys like more original parts by BRP or you like to spend money on Aftermarket parts? hmmm?

[@RichardJoashTan]

I want the 2020 Spyder RT Limited with the mix of oem and aftermarket.

[@MartinTheVlogger]

@@RichardJoashTan 😂👌👌👌 quite smart answer 😉😉😉

[@watchdogsapps5166]

Like you, I'll prefer to go original (usually it will fit and look more nicer) unless there's some kind of known problem with the parts.

[@1990-t1j]

@@watchdogsapps5166 I wish the standard rear seat would fit more securely. The loose fit is totally unacceptable.

[@Frankietomatoes6189]

@@1990-t1j I agree about the passenger seat, poor fitment. We pay big bucks and they should fit proper

[@wendeannethomas793]

Picked up my "Beast" used. The Cannonball seat was already installed (lucky me); however, I find that it wiggles and it is not solid due to that fact that there is only one locking pin on the right side. Is this normal?? On the left, is that 2" or so round plastic button that compresses when you press on it. What is that??

[@MartinTheVlogger]

Hi Wendeanne, we are talking about the passenger seat right. Yes, infortunatelly it has like 2 slide pins on the side of main seat, and then it has only 1 pin on the side where the brake lights are. It wiggles a bit. If ypu will write me to 00421902944669 on whatsapp or viber, i will record you video how it is on my bike. As for the round plastic button, it is a push sensor, so when somebody sits on the rear seat, bike will notice that, and slightly will adjust for 2up rYde. In respect to performance etc

[@miriamoquendo8331]

Hi Martin how did you get your bike paint it iam trying todo minds my bike is blue

[@MartinTheVlogger]

Hey Miriam. Its custom wrap. Mine was magnesium and took it to one shop here and they did it for me. By the end of this year i will have a new wrap coz this one has already like 4 years and i need some new inspiration 😉😉😉

[@1990-t1j]

I find my driver's seat to be perfectly comfortable, and I don't want to be lower down. By the way, the side cases are aftermarket. They are made by SHAD and are not specific to Can-Am.

[@watchdogsapps5166]

True that they are the widely available as the SH36 from SHAD, but you can only get them the with reflector badges from BRP.

[@MartinTheVlogger]

@@watchdogsapps5166 and with rails 😉😉😉

[@1990-t1j]

@@watchdogsapps5166 I got mine from BRP, and they don't have reflector badges. Probably why I got them cheap. They told me they used a different importer.

[@snapfitnesskingwilliam5739]

Smoothspyder.com makes an adjustable back rest that will make your passenger's ride 10x more comfortable. The version for the RS has allowed my wife to ride for 5+ hours with me, where before 15 minutes with no backrest would cause her back pain.

[@MartinTheVlogger]

Thanx for the tip 👌👌👌👌
