Pure Magnesium w/Red Frame, Cannonball Seats, Passenger Backrest, Driver & Passenger Floorboards, Blueridge w/s and Cross Country Saddle Bags. After purchasing a 5th wheel toy hauler last year we no longer do multi-day rides but rather short day cruises from where ever we happen to be camping. While I loved my 2012 RT Limited for 2 up touring and my 2012 Vulcan 900 for solo cruising I feel the F3 will satisfy both requirements. Traded the RT and selling the Vulcan.

No ETA as of now but shooting for Apr 1/15 which should be the start of the riding season here in the great white north.

I wish those of us that have the F3 ordered would get some sort of official delivery date. I have heard everything from Nov-May a 7 month spread isn't acceptable.

How are you guys ordering the F3? My dealer in PA does not even have it in their system as of a week ago.

That's pretty much the way I would like one and maybe add the red racing stripe decals on the frunklid. Please post some pictures whenever you get yours.

The dealer had to order the ones he wanted.

Hi TomD;
Did not deal with St.Onge, tried very hard too but they wouldn't deal. I was very disappointed since I purchased my 2012 RT Ltd and my 2012 Vulcan 900 from them. Their F3 price was decent but the fell way short on the Out The Door bottom line due to a dismal trade in value. I purchased from Factory Recreation in Midland with about a $1700 savings. Also Brampton Powersports was willing to give me the same deal, I choose Factory Recreation because of travel distance.

I ordered my F3 S with the Touring escape package in black three weeks ago. The dealer said I would maybe get it in January, but I don't think that will happen. I would think maybe March. I also traded my 2012 Rt on it. Can hardly wait to have it arrive.

As far as delivery dates. When I ordered my 2008 GS SE5, I placed the order on April 2, 2008. I received my Spyder October 13, 2008. I sure hope it won't take that long for the F3.

How much did the touring escape package cost you?

I'm also curious as to what that costs. I could definitely go without the chrome wheels, chrome handlebars & frame caps and maybe without the floorboards while still having most of the features for less money.

I won't mention actual $ amounts since I'm dealing with Canadian Dealers (cdn prices/taxes/labour rates/etc.) but all of the dealers I approached offered a min of 15% off on the accessories and less than 4 hrs labour to install (based on the package I ordered, not the full list by BRP). The bottom line was that I paid $4.5 - 5K less than I would have for a base RT S6. Hope that helps.
