    Default My new 2020 F3 Limited Dark

    I picked up my new F3 Limited today. Traded my 2009 RS and my Kawasaki 1600 Nomad. Incentives made it very affordable, after the trade. Had a nice ride home, about 70 miles. My wife enjoys the pillion and the passenger armrests. Looking forward to many fun miles.2FA95912-8A15-482A-93D8-359F5AC548BB.jpeg

    What a coincidence. I'm trying to trade a 2018 RTL and a 2014 1700 Nomad for a new RT.

    BRP calls that Magma Red. I saw one up close and personal today. It's as orange as it can be. If it's red, I have a 12" long......................ruler.

    MONK I know what you mean about the color being called Magma Red. It is definitely more orange than red. But I do like it in the Dark Edition. So much smoother and quieter than the RS. The wind was at 30 mph on the way home, held the road very well when in the crosswind.

    Copper, I really am liking the riding position on the F3, nice to be able to stretch out in a more upright position. Was also pleased with how the windscreen creates a nice calm pocket for me. I thought it might lead to head buffeting. Did get bounded around by the crosswind, but that has nothing to do with the windscreen. Riding west with a 30-40 mph wind from the south moved me, but the bike tracked very well.

    I was going to get an upline windshield for mine. Now at 9,500 miles and been through one winter, I am sticking with the OEM. Works great for me and I have never felt buffeted by the wind.

    Same color combo as mine. It is "more red" that the Pheonix Orange... but not much... lol

    I put a dark tinted windsheild (after.my profile pic) from Lamonster (Bought and installed by Spyderpops) and it really makes it look sharp.

    I now have a little over 500 miles on my F3L and am really liking the ride. Rode about 200 miles today to have lunch with my brother in law, who has a Goldwing trike. Filled mune up and it got 38.8 mpg, which makes me very happy. Trip was all highway miles at 55-60 mph. Was a very comfortable ride.
