    Default Bushtec Hitch

    Took my F3 to Bushtec today for them to use to build a trailer hitch for the F3. Should be finished in 3 weeks.

    Do they let you keep one of the hitches, for being involved in the project?

    I am nominating "fence post" as the F3 OWNER OF THE YEAR for finding a supplier of aftermarket hitches for all of us. I tried here in CO with no luck. 2015 F3 owners rejoice!

    Hope Bushtec comes through with a hitch for the F3 & F3-S, looks like BRP is not.

    It will come to be. They told me they would need my bike for 3 weeks. Don't know how long after that before they will be available. When I pick up my bike I will post pictures and hopefully a timeline when avalible.
