    Cool Fixed that!

    Fixed my F3 so it is now 10 to 15 mph faster.

    Great bike, now faster since it is Slingshot Yellow.

    I still have the license plate holder and the raised running lights on the fenders to do.

    As an added bonus, the CanAm "red" on the frame now looks very good - so I am not going to paint that.

    Default Heyyy

    You obviously stole my bike and painted it yellow to throw me off the trail. So just give it back to me and we will call it even. Nice paint job.

    Nuclear Banana! Great looking bike. Are you planning to paint the 3 fenders or leave them black? The black upper console looks great with the yellow fairing.

    . . . . I am going to leave the fenders black, but I am going to paint ( temporary ) the raised running lights/reflector molding yellow to see if I like it. It may look too busy for a banana.
