    Default Accessories - suggestions

    In the very near future I will be buying a 2018 T3 Limited. I would like some suggestions (based on experience not heresy) on some items. I realize that these items will be subjective, but trying to save time and money on items that you know don't work well. Spyder will be used for long road trips, both single and two-up.

    Thanks

    1. Drink holder
    2. Mirror fix for vibration
    3. Heated seat
    4. Passenger armrest
    5. Floorboards
    6. Lighting - front and rear
    7. Other 'must have items'

    Floorboards are standard on Limiteds. For additional front lighting, I installed Slingmods combo fog light/DRL. I also added road lights the are held in with the top front inside fender screws.
    Geez man...give yourself time and you will learn what's needed and wanted. There is a difference, you know.

    Ride it for awhile and the things you need will suggest themselves to you. Mirror vibration can be solved by the wedgies from Squared Away,

    I have been riding since the 60's, most recently on a Harley TriGlide, so the accessories I am asking about will be what I need/want. Just looking for suggestions as to different brands and configurations.

    Some here have listed FARKLES in our signature most from vendors on home page, some former vendors(not listed) can still be found. Might just browse & get familiar with whatever fits your interests

    Accessories are a personal thing. I'd ride it for a while before I started throwing extra money at it. However, if you are planning on long rides, I would definitely go with the drink holder(s) first, one for the passenger too.
