So to start things off let me just say that I am not only new to Spyders (looking to get one, don't have one yet) but I am new to cycles in general. What I want to do is pick the brains of those who have been at this for a while about various subjects concerning buying a Spyder. I know two of these will depend on year. I would throw the manual vs semi-auto in there but most likely I will bite the bullet price wise and get the SE. Thanks in advance for allowing me to pick your brains and any advice given.

  • What year would you draw a limit on if buying used?
  • Mileage
  • Pricing
  • F3 or F3-S (Is the difference in the two worth the extra cost) (Plan on getting the S but just curious)
