JP58, I see in your sig that you have a riser is a 2". Did it help with the comfort level and relieve the stress on the arms and hands.

Congrats! I picked up mine a few weeks ago. Same model and color. This is my first spyder, coming from two wheels. The more I ride it, the more I love it.
This is EXACTLY how I feel about mine as well. Just bought it about six weeks ago after riding two wheels for ~5 years. I can't get enough of this ride. I hope it never wears off.

Yes it does. Very comfortable now only problem is I couldn't get the bars to stop slipping. The lower is tight. That one's ok. The bars have no kwerling. So I drill a hole in each cap and tapped. Put one 1/4 x 3/4 Allen head bolt in each cap centered so it won't slip.
JP58 , Thanks for the reply. As you can see from my avatar I picked up an F3L same color as yours. Two things that bother me. The handle bar reach and the brake pedal height. So I will try the Rox riser. I also see where I can relocate the mounting hole on the brake rod which will lower the pedal height, we'll see. I'm also thinking about a new wind screen, lots of choices, I want to be sure before I order one. Looks like you have a vent in yours. How do you like using it?

Windshield is F4 customs. Very clear and no buffeting. I'm 5'9" 30 inseam. I look thru it about 2" below top. Can clean with paper towels and window cleaner. You can also get the short reach handelbars. Lamonster has a brake lowering rod for position 3,4,5.

I really like this spyder. I love the personality of the F3 over the RTL but my wife liked the passenger seating better on the RT, hence my RT. It would be my spyder of choice if I were the only opinion. Chris
Funny...I just traded my 2015 RT-S for an 18 F3L in the exact same color...blue and dark. Absolutely love it! So much more comfortable after moving the boards to position 5, long reach bars, 19 inch windshield and Lamonster brake rod that drops the brake pedal down. I just ordered the top case extender to move it back 5 inches from Spyderpops too. It's night and day compared to the RS.
