F3 or F3 S - auto or manual?
I ride a H-D Tri Glide and have been riding trikes for many years. Thinking about getting a second trike (something different). Found a H-D Freewheeler a poor fit. About 2 - 4 inches too close to the bars from as far as I could get back in the seat.
Waiting for nearby dealer to put an F3 together so I can give it a test ride. Other than the fancier gauge cluster, which I like, what makes the F3 S better? :dontknow:
Resigned to giving up the hand brake, but I think I would prefer a manual since I am used to riding motorcycles with manuals. :dontknow:
New F3's, F3 S's, and used F3's with manuals seem hard to find in East Tennessee.
Opinions requested.

F3 or F3 S - auto or manual? or F3-S SS
Thanks for all the replies. :2thumbs:
Wish I could find a manual nearby to test ride. When it is a dry day so the dealer will let me, I'm going 90 miles to test a '21 F3-S SS. Starting to think 2 year unlimited miles warranty and road side assistance is a good reason to go for a new one and forget about the manual transmission. I should be able get use to the semi-automatic and if I want to sell it later as was said I can sell it easier. I have driven lots of things from 2 wheel motorcycles to 5 ton Army trucks to boats with automatic, manual, semi-automatic transmissions with 1 wheel drive to 4 wheel drive.
Don't need a semi-automatic now but might later. Plus I will still have my H-D Tri Glide for manual shifting.
Might as well to pay just a little more for a F3-S SS and get all the goodies.
