    Default Possible 2016 F3 T New Owner in Arizona after advice

    Any Arizona riders have any advice for a new owner? As far as I can tell with what I can dig up it appears to be a very nice machine. I would normally not get the audio however with this machine being a 2016 left over I am a bit stuck with availability.

    Any input would be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance

    Default Newbie here

    Just picked up my new one three days ago. Love it. And, the 2016 models carry a nice discount if one is diligent about negotiations.

    As to Arizona....few years back on a solo trip from NC to San Diego... I-10....on a BMW K1200RS...120 miles in an hour....love Arizona!

    I think if you want to have the feeling of being out in the open, lots of performance, and not worry about riding two wheels, the Spyder is the answer. I looked at the Slingshot, but this is essentially a three wheel car, in no way resembles a motorcycle. The Spyder gets one up where it is possible to actually see where you are going as well. Go for it.

    I pulled the trigger on the 2016 White F3 T today, still in the crate. Should be delivered next Thursday.

    Congratulations, I think you will learn to love it. My first experience, about 8 years ago, required a learning curve. My current Spyder, sweet from the git-go.

    Bike was delivered today, very nice for sure. I am reading manual, checking switches and seeing how to operate this new bike before I get on the road. Don't want any surprises.
    Cheers
