A member here did a one-off custom FRAME TYPE hitch for His RT which wouldn't help you ..... Currently there are three for the F-3 .... one uses the bumper tabs on the swing arm...... one uses the swing arm and incorporates the axel ( this is the strongest for the tubular swing -arm ) .... and the newer high end F-3's that have the same swing arm as the RT uses the Hitch from the RT .............

Or there's the frame mounted hitch made by classic industries in Queensland Australia. $au 495 but the exchange rate works your way!

Yeah well I've lost count of things I've had shipped to oz from the states for my spyders - and don't forget our dollar is only worth 70 odd us cents...
Sometimes shipping cost is reasonable, sometimes not. I can't recall anything that was only 24 for shipping lol
It all depends what it's worth to you... Just passing on a hitch option.

I have an extra hitch for the RT, Does anyone know if it will fit a 2015 F3. If not what are people using for a hitch and what do I need for a wiring harness? I am looking at buying the F3 but would like to haul my 622 trailer with it.

Sorry, but the RT hitches will not fit the F3. The F3 has a tubular swingarm.... the RT has a squared swingarm. Can't fit a square peg into a round hole.... ;-)
The F3-T models have a square swingarm and there is a BRP hitch available, but I believe it differs from the RT one...
I think there is a 3rd party making them for the regular F3 models......
Spyder #1 - 2008 GS SM5 Premier Edition #1977. RIP after 80,000 miles.
Spyder #2 - 2012 RT SM5. Traded in after 24,000 miles.
Spyder #3 - 2015 F3 SM6. Put 13,000 miles on and sold it.
Spyder #4 - 2017 F3 SM6. Too good of a deal to pass up!
