    Default It's in my garage

    Picked up my F3s today. Drove 50 miles from the dealer to home. Played around with the eco mode. Did not like the recommend shifts, but will play with it some more.

    on your new F3. Try shifting at 3000 - 3500. It will be smooth, quiet, and mostly to your liking. The 1330 has lots of get up an go power from 2500 and up.

    A lot of us do not like the ECO mode. It is distracting and I don't like the machine telling me when its okay to shift.

    I notice shifting from 1st to 2nd was smoother at about 2700 RPM and for higher hears above 3500.

    Default Very nice!

    Lots to enjoy in the F3, I am over 3k and still haven't used the Eco mode either.

    I'm just too infatuated with the throttle.

    Thanks for the pic - that's exactly what my husband has ordered - f3s red with black frame. STILL waiting for them to start fulfilling orders in Australia.
