I do like the F3 and I am sure it will be a hit for those who are into the cruiser style. I gotta stay with the RT though as I travel two up with the trailer and would not be comfortable with the lack of wind protection and storage space. I am just wondering if any of the styling ques will translate over to the RT line. I am seriously awaiting the '15 RT'S and will likly trade up from my 2010 "Mr. Blue GT" I have loved every mile with him but i am craving the bigger engine and better highway capibilities. I hate to see Mr. Blue go but I'm hoping he goes to a good home. it's a super good RTS.

I am in for the pricing pool, My guess is $8999.99 (USD).
Just sayin'...........
Three in the garage, and I think I can fit at least one more in.....and then we will have to build another garage.
The roads in NY are so bad that I am glad we bought a Ryker Rally
Just sayin'............

I take that back...I've looked at more picks and an inline triple it is!

One of the spy pics had a clutch.

If the RS stays, that confuses the pricing. It'll have to find a spot between it and the ST, and there's not much room in there. So my best guess will be $20,999....

De plane! De plane! Huh?
I'm not too proud to be embarrassed by my ignorance, but I don't get Lamonster's Fantasy Island reference with the picture of Mr. Roarke and Tattoo.
A little help please...

That would seem to be his response to Otter guessing that the bike will cost $8,999.

I believe that Lamont is saying that some are way to high and others are way too low.
I would say that the F3 will be starting at around $15000 and go up from there.

It took a while, but I think I got it. The $8,999 price is a fantasy. Sad, but true, I am afraid.

Hotter Version of the 1330 ACE Maybe???
Remember the original RT version of the triple doesn't really have much more horsepower than the previous 998 V-twin, just more low-end torque. Wouldn't it be possible for a sportier version to have higher output? Things like camshafts, porting and compression as well as intake and exhaust flow could be different enough on the F3 to up the game performance-wise and still be EPA compliant. Other motorcycle manufacturers do this. Whether or not BRP will do this on the F3 remains to be seen though.

Certainly we can hope!

Price
I say $21,999 and up......
RT range... High end sports model

I say it will be priced in typical BRP fashion (A.K.A. Overpriced) for the service you get after the dealer gets your money!
