    Default CAUTION!

    CAUTION!
    If you are happy with your current spyder, do not drive the F3T! I love my RT and my RSS, but today I decided to take the F3T for another test ride while my RT was being serviced. I tell myself, that the F3T series is ugly, has no storage, no real passenger comforts, and is overrated. All this may be true, but somehow, it keeps calling me. Thank God I have a wife that keeps me on track (and sometimes scares me) and helps me to resist the urges to get another bike. Who knows what the future holds, but for now, I will resist.

    I have done done the same thing and golly that urge to go to the F3 is so strong. I love my RTL even the 990 series is still good but that F3 position, lower CG, and jus handling is so great.
    Then I think about the electric windshield and all the storage and logic and reason kick in.

    It is hard to tell who will win his argument but the devil on my shoulder (F3), is not giving up easily.
