Did not get to test ride, as No rides were offered on Friday from any of the manufactures, Victory, Harley and BRP included. :banghead:

But when I sat on this beauty below, Let me tell ya I now know why Lamont fell in love with her.

But beginning tomorrow at 8:30 am they will be taking signups to go out at 9 am :yes:



The inside show was really nicely done and laid out

BRP is in a different location this year both outside demo area and inside the convention.

Only F3's are available for demo, which is fine by me! Thats what I am coming back for to test out tomorrow.

Just returned from Long Beach, and got to ride the F3-S. Where do I start....just sitting on the bike immediately you know there is something really different about the Spyder from all the others. The sense of unity hits you. Like a coupler married up to its adjoining part. The comfort is awesome as well as a felling of stability. I haven't even started the bike yet and my expectations were exceeded. I've been a Harley rider for ever, but to feel really secure on this F3 isn't a sensation one gets from a two wheeler. After a short safety video and once around the coned off track, we were fitted to the F3 based on height. Really felt like it was made for my reach and comfort.

My girlfriend was right in front of me, which is how we always ride, but now I'm on a Spyder rather than my Harley. We headed out the parking lot single file and hit the streets. After a block or so we were clear of all the venue traffic and went over a huge bridge with moderate traffic, but then it opened up along with my throttle ...holy mother of flight... These 1330 are better than a shoulder adjustment from my chiropractor. I was truly surprised of the speed, even after reading the dozen or so comments of the performance and speed. Wow is all I can add to my endless grin for the next 30-45 minutes of cruising through Long Beach. The only mix feeling I have now is my decision to test ride it, now I have to wait for mine to come in knowing this is the most fun I have ever had on a bike. Been riding since I was 9 and have been on a bunch of different rides, but now' 50 years later this is the best riding experience I have ever had.

I also meet several members including Scotty Broad from Spyder Ryder Of America, Los Angeles Chapter. Looking forward to joining up.989839898498985

Could not make it this weekend so sorry I missed seeing you all! Hope to see you on SRA-LA rides in the future. We will probably be going to the casino ride this weekend.
