Steering geometry would keep a sane man awake at night. The ?rig? would handle completely differently when turning right or left.
The DOT people would go flipsoied when they saw it. You'd hear their...

Not to use HP spray around wheel bearings. Yes, I learned the hard way. 235 miles from home.

Have your spinal cord checked by a good back doctor. Mine is screwed up from a race car crash at Laguna Seca years ago. I'm 79, and the best solution I've found is cruise control. Had it on all my...

20d nail and a five-pound single jack. The damn glovebox lid WILL stay shut.

BajaRon - I live in Southwest Nevada. I have seen temps as high as 116 on Interstate 15 from Barstow to Las Vegas. Even a wet vest didn't help. I finally found a motel and stayed until the next...

I used to live in the wet west Pacific.
Still own a t-shirt

GRH - I have been looking for an extended pedal. What company sold you theirs?
('Course, being a Spyder part, It costs in the four figures ;)

I lost 64 pounds a while ago. Was then forced to sell my Softail and buy a BMW. Then I turned 78, and now I'm on a 2015 F3.

Just came back from my first 100-mile trip, and boy, do I feel different.
Thanks all for the good words. Much appreciated!

I is now the proud owner of a 2015 F3s. My, after riding two-wheelers for 62 years, this new-fangled three on the ground is a tad different.
Now, if I can avail you wonderful folk to instruct me, I...

Well, thanks all. I found a 2015 F3s in my price range. I'm picking it up in two hours.

Yeah, the weather really makes riding tough. I got caught in the sun yesterday here in Las Vegas. Forgot my sunblock!

Found a 2015 F3S.
Thanks all for the help and advice!

troop -
Only problem is that you are 1700 miles from me. Looks to be a 24-hour ride - 6 hour flight to get from you to Las Vegas.

Well, I finally gave up on two wheels after riding since 1966. Both knees and one shoulder replaced. Now, I'm looking for a F3S. I've got $10k in cash. What do you think my chances are of finding a...

For the best of both worlds, find a Miata that has a small block Chev LS-3 properly installed. Kinda' a poor man's cobra.

Go with the F3. I'm in the same market. Live in Las Vegas. Looking for a F3S (have to have cruise control). I'd travel to find a good one.

A few years back I was in southern Utah on my BMW R1200RT. Proceeded to smack a swarm of bees dead square at 55-60 per. I will leave it to your tender imagination as to what happened next!

BL - does the 2016-2017 Base come with Cruise? It's a deal breaker for me and my two replaced knees.

Not a Can Am Spyder owner yet. I'm 78, just sold my BMW R1200R. I'm a tad too unsteady on two wheels, so a Spyder is in my future.
I want to start off slow, so what would be a good purchase for $8k...

I'm in Las Vegas. Can you send some better photos?
Does it have CC (I'm old and need it.)
Service records?
What does it need?
I don't expect it to be perfect; I just want to know what I'm...

Dean - I'm pretty sure I bought a bike from you when I lived in San Jose. You were on W. San Carlos if I remember right.
I think it was a BMW R90S smoke and silver. I'm selling my R1200R and buying...
