    Default First post in the new Spyder F3 board

    Lot's of talk about the official Spyder F3 now so it's going to need it's own message board.

    Great idea. Now if BRP would post some of the specs and information instead of just a teaser picture that we already knew about...



    Oh Yes! I like it a lot although there wont be one in my future. I am an RT guy for sure though, and have to act my age.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    Well, I'm not a Spyder owner yet, but by the looks of the F3, I may not act my age either....was waiting for a 2014 RTS or RT Limited SE6 leftover b4 making the big jump....might have to see what the 2015 lineup brings now.....

    the F3 is a sharp looking roadster.

    Default F3 Black on Chrome

    The F3 pic will be a winner from a marketing perspective....hot look! All Black on Chrome.

    Looks like the passenger grab rails are designed for mounting an array of options. Hopefully, MSRP will be in the low 20's for a base model...and no more than $26.5K for the step-up, loaded with goodies...positioning the F3 between the ST and RT models....

    I was wondering how long before you'd have an F3 board. Sweet looking Spyder!

    If it is priced near 20k for a base bike, many will take a hard look at the slingshot. Imo.

    My feeling is that this style roadster just opens up and expands the fan base for the Spyder. A bit more open look and what would draw the attention of a Harley lover....providing it has the RT Rotax as the powerplant. All bets off and a much lower MSRP without the 1330.

    At the very worst case Sept 23 you'll have most of your questions answered and I'll be able to fill in the blanks but till then we can all just wait and see. It is good to see the new blood showing up.

    Those pegs look like they might be adjustable by sliding back and forth on the frame bar. That would be neat.

    I see a solid linkage from the pedal to the master. If it is adjustable then the rod would have to be adjustable as well. There is also the issue with the shifter on SM models.

    I wanna know how this guy in the pic is obviously moving, but his hair coming out of the back of his helmet is not moving at all!!

    PS - I was at the dealership yesterday and they said it has the 1330 engine. It's a nice looking machine and I like the styling, but it's basically a 1-person bike and I'm not totally sold on the front-end.
