I knew there were going to be some great deals after the dealer show and sure enough there were. Ever since my wife took over the F3T I've wished we had another one for these long rides we take. I love my F3-S but the T has better weather protection, is quieter to ride (less wind noise) and has a pretty killer stereo. She just added the top case and as it takes away from the looks a little bit the extra storage is great. Love that you can fit two fullface helmets in it. My F3-S is a manual and there are times I really would like having a semi auto. I also like the fact that it has an air shock for preload and it's setup for a factory hitch. To me this is the ultimate Spyder.

I wasn't really in the market just yet but one of our dealer sponsors had an ad on Facebook that hooked me in. It's a red and black F3 Limited that comes with a 5 year B.E.S.T warranty, $500 in free parts and accessories and free delivery anywhere in the lower 48. I made a phone call to iMotorsports and they put me in touch with Jason and we got the deal going. The whole experience has been great and I'll bet I have less than an hour making this happen. We won't be back from the Texas rally and the Road Warrior ride till the 26th so it will show up here at the shop sometime after that. I know of four other folks that are working with them now on trading in for a new Spyder. I'll let you know how the rest of the transaction goes but from what I've been reading they really take care of their customers and they make good on their promises with no surprises at the end. They value your time and have the whole process down to a science.

I'll be doing some cool custom work on it that I've yet to see done before. I can't wait to get back from the ride so I can tear my new ride apart and make it mine.

So meet the new "SHOP DAWG" :doorag:

I also just completed a transaction with iMotorsports trading in a '12 RT-S for a '17 F3L. The whole transaction was pretty seamless and all necessary paperwork was e-mailed to me to be filled out & mailed back to them. Great people to deal with and really good prices and fair deal on my trade in. Free delivery and 5 year warranty were a real plus. With any luck my new toy will be delivered sometime this week :clap:.

I had an RT to trade so it took more phone work. I traveled 250 miles to the dealer and wanted to be as clear as possible about what I had and what I expected. They honored their phone trade commitment. But I threw them a curve ball at the last minute and changed from a 2017 F3L to a 2016 F3L. I was expecting the whole deal to be back at square one. My guy went into the BIG office, came back and said " no problem, we'll need a few minutes to prep the 2016 F3L".
They have an indoor used warehouse that boggles the mind as it seems as big as a football field.

However, the first time I ran up the RPMs after break in, I had oil pumping out my dipstick and burning on my exhaust. But thanks to the collective knowledge of the forum members we were able to determine by correctly reading the dip stick that my bike was over filled with oil. I took out 6 ounces of oil and life was good. On my first oil change I put in 6 ounces less than recommended and that was spot on for oil level.
So with any new Spyder you should follow the manufactures recommendation for checking the oil BEFORE there is any chance of making a mess.

I’m super happy for you! Having gone from a 12 RT to a 17 F3L, the change for me was mind blowing. Since the end of May I’ve ridden it over 13,000 awesome miles.
On a not so awesome note, my experience with the named dealer was, shall I say, not so favorable. I bought elsewhere.

Be careful, Lamont. I notice Joan is eyeing off the anniversary model F3-T on the Facebook page. It’s going to be hard to deny her, with your recent purchase :ohyea:

I guess you will be making it your own over the winter. Can’t wait to see results! Congratulations on your new ride!

Its a 17 F3L, so how do you feel about the smaller rear sproket and the relaxed performance ??

Very Nice! I just looked & Imotorsports' inventory is getting very slim. Must have been a lot of purchases made this year.

I'm keeping my hotrod F3-S so I'll be just fine with the smaller sprocket.

Here's a link to the video. https://www.facebook.com/lamonster.spyderlovers/videos/1576159122427353/

imotorsports just delivered my 2017 F3 Limited and I couldn’t be happier. I got a great deal on the bike, FREE delivery, 5 year BEST warranty and it came laser aligned. I’ll be checking that ;)

They use their own driver and this guy pays attention to detail as you can see.
This is the dealer I’ll be buying from in the future based on what others have experience and what I’ve experienced first hand. Now let the mods begin :doorag:

Sort of hard to tell, but it looked like the same guy that delivered mine to me back in April. Mine was delivered to me in a Walmart parking lot in Pigeon Forge while I was on vacation. They forgot the 30 day tag, so they emailed it to me and I was able to print it out and put it on. They also loaded my 2012 RSS that i traded in. Easy and painless experience. I will be checking them out before making any bike purchase.
Enjoy.

I was very close to buying a 2017 F3T from imotorsports but 1 of my local dealers beat them by 1200.00 but they were very helpful.

Lamont, how did it go when you checked that laser alignment, did they do it right?

Hello again, been gone for awhile. I had a 2010 RT, thought I was over the three wheels and picked up a Goldwing... Not such a good move, my wife hated the bike!! Anyway, we found Imotorsports and traded in the Goldwing for a leftover 2016 RT-S. Wow, very nice. Spyders sure have changed since 2010!!
