    Default I love you guys... I hate you guys....

    I haven't taken delivery yet. I'll pick my F3-T up Saturday morning. You've all been so helpful so far and I appreciate that.

    However... However... I'm going to get four packages in the near future from Lamonster because I'm already starting to customize.

    It's NOT EVEN HERE YET!!!

    I blame all y'all.

    I know where you are coming from! I bought my LED head lights and fog light kit before I bought my new F3 Limited! It did help keep me from backing out. The lights are awesome compared to the OEM headlights.

    Default at least the farkles are ready for you!

    I ordered my F3 in September of 2014 and bought all the fender LEDs and a powerlet outlet for my heated gear as soon as I ordered the F3. Then I got to sit on all of that stuff until I got it in Februrary 2015. When I got it, not even all of the OEM accessories I wanted were available (took about 4-6 more months to get everything that I ordered with the F3). When I got the F3 there were no more farkles to get until some of our sponsors started manufacturing them. That part was the killer.

    Of course, part of me goes "What next?"

    I'd like some stripes from Wrap My Spyder. I can see that I might need different shocks due to our total 2-up weight. I have a Garmin Zumo 660 but I'm not sure how to attach it yet. I'm hoping the bolts on the handle bracket are 8mm so I can use the pretty 8mm bolt converter from Ram.

    Oh... what next? Performance pipe?

    Default Let it tell you

    Ride. It will tell you what you need. Then ride more! Once you are happy, your farkling journey is complete! Then ride more! Nothing like miles to tell you what works! What lasts, and what is good! It takes a few years to understand the finances of this sport. Once you do, it is quite fun!!

    I've been riding for years on 2 wheels. I had a rule for my last two Kawi's that I liked, the first money is spent on safety or performance. That's why I haven't ordered a stripe from Wrap My Spyder. Appearance (and sound (read: "bypass")) are spent later.

    So - lighting now for safety (I'm a big believer in "lighting is safety"), sway bar because I'm going to running heavy, bumpskid to protect the investment. Actually, my next money is going to be spent on a saddle rebuild. I think my Russell Day-Long saddle is the best money I ever spent on my Kawi. Turned 300 miles of slowly stiffening joints into 600 a day if I wanted it to.

    And my wife thought I was the only one "dumb" enough to order mods prior to taking delivery of my Spyder, snowmobile, atv, truck, trailer, etc......
