Totally Agree with original post
I have never ridden a Cruiser as such, had a few Goldwings before my first Spyder. I have had 3 Spyders, 2010RS, 2011RSS and currently a 2013 ST SM5. With the ST I have a very comfortable riding position, good wind protection. It has taken me 3 Spyders and a lot of trial and error to have my ride how I like it.
Now the F3 comes along and seems to not be anything I want in a ride, but I seem to be drawn to the whole look and dynamic of this machine, its almost like Jekyl and Hyde, one part of me is saying "I want one" but the other part is saying "its not for you" lolol
The best part about it, is I have a choice, and at the moment I'm tending to stick to my ST, but I can't wait to get on one of these to convince myself either way. And if the add ons/aftermarket parts can give me good options, who knows
We now have His and Hers Spyders.

Recommending you don't test drive unless you have the checkbook along. Sounds like you are/could be very close.
