Made a "BIG Mistake" - rode an F3 Limited!!!
I was riding around and my wife spied a Spyder in a driveway. SHE suggested I stop and SHE knocked on the door to get the owner. I had a great talk with Nick about Spyders, especially his 2016 red F3 Limited in the driveway. To my amazement, he offered to let me ride it!! After declining a couple of times, I finally accepted. WOW!!! What a blast! It felt fantastic. Now the "bad" news is that I was going to get an F3S, and then decided that an F3T upgrade might be worth it. But the Limited felt So fantastic, I don't know if I would want anything else. It was my first ride on a Spyder, so I still have some more test rides to do. But I think I am smitten by the Limited. I am deeply indebted to Nick for generously letting me ride his beautiful machine. The "good news" is that my wife suggested we stop, she admitted that even she got excited about the Spyder, and has probably accepted the fact that a Spyder is in my future.
Right - Your hooked ... but
... hey the F3s and F3t ride just as good. I'll admit the F3 Limited has more upgrades and extras you'll probably end up buying if you go with the F3s or F3t. (Not so much the F3t) but you have to do some homework and study what folks say on this forum about the different styles. You may have deeper pockets than me but I think anything worth buying at such a high price as these bikes are deserves comparison studies before you sign on the dotted line. Plus you need to know that Spyder maintenance and add-on accessories are quite expensive as well and I've been around the block a few times at age 71 and from what I've learned about any large ticket items and their levels of accessory extras is that the most expensive model is just a pile on of extras you can also purchase to put on the basic model and do it in more of a customized to your own personality design. Just my thoughts ;)
