    Default I think the RTL bug has finally bit me..

    Yup ... Usually winter storage time is when I do my upcoming season mods to my 2019 F3S. This year, it might be time I do my add-on removals. Just want to pamper myself a bit more on my long distance rides. Heck, the new RTL might even be my last new cycle purchase. Really liking the 2023 blue and red colors. I could be swayed to black as their are (4) new 2022 monolith black RTL's within a 50 mile radius of me. Not going to rush into things until after the riding season is over here in Wisconsin. We shall see ,,,

    Took our 2019 bikes to Hanover Motosports recently for inspection. I absolutely loved a 2023 silver RT Ltd with black accents sitting on their showroom floor. Great color! Haven't been able to rationalize trying to buy it yet though... but the 'want' is still there!

    I abandoned my 2016 F3L in January after admiring the RTL after the 2020 refresh. After a few hundred miles I forgot all about the F3 … different level of comfort for me now.

    troop,

    Good luck on choosing either the red or blue color in the 2023 RTL.

    I see in the picture with the blue 2023 RTL , that there is a 2023 F3 LTD Special Series Mineral Blue next to it ( I have the cousin to this one).

    Also consider the RT Base (assuming still an option) and customize a top box if needed. Less bulk if riding solo.

    Personally, I'm partial to the red. Blue would take 2nd place with black bringing up the rear.

    I think the monolith black RTL looks sexy, but 3 of my last 4 last bikes have been black. The 2022 Sea To Sky also has a nice, unique color.
