    Default Heads Up

    Those 6MM flat washers that you pay $1.99 each at CheapCycle parts are available for $1.82 for a bag of 100 at Amazon.com

    I am finding that Amazon has a lot of items at lesser prices, and FREE shipping if you usually spend $25 or more. No PRIME sign ups required. And--most of the time they give you the prime shipping as an added bonus for free.

    Of late, we can get a 96 assortment of Keurig Coffee cups for around $30. That's half what we pay in the supermarket here.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    Default Beware....

    Most of the torx holding the panels on or together are nylon washers. They may have changed this but my 2012 uses the black nylon washers to avoid creasing the pastic panels. They tend to flatten out but you can get them at Home Depot cheap...

    On my 2011 RT any screw that goes on a painted surface has a steel black washer. Part number 234062670
