Y'all Aren't Helping Me At All!!

[TommyBwell]

I got my first motorcycle in 1970 and have logged nearly a million miles on dirt, street and racetracks. I spent much of my life working at and eventually owning a dealership. I've won three national roadracing championships, toured most of the country and depended on motorcycles for my primary transportation for much of my life.

Ten years ago I busted my foot off on a freak martial arts accident have have not been able to ride much sense. The F3 solves all my problems and is a great option for me. My problem is I don't want to give up on riding motorcycles and I'm afraid once I get one I'll never go back. I have read through the 31 pages on the F3 hoping there would be enough whining and complaining to talk me out of it but NOOOOO. All y'all want to talk about is how awesome it is and how much you love it.

Can I please get some bad news so I can save twenty grand and keep my dream of riding a motorcycle again one day alive???

Time to face the Music, Tommy... :shocked:
You've already succumbed to the bite of the :spyder2:!
:congrats: Now; go pick one out, before the stomach cramps start... :roflblack:

:welcome:

 

[oldguyinTX]

You won't get it here.

 

[JkRbbt]

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, Tommy, but you really won't miss the 2-wheeler that much if you get an F3! Sorry!

 

[Pampurrs]

Sorry, have some :spyder2: Kool Aid

 

[jcasey]

:agree: Go for it and don't look back!! If you do want to go back put it in reverse!:clap:

 

[MMMII]

Alright, I'll step up and help you out...

Most F3 owners can't handle the wind while ryding so they go out and get some monstrous windshield or windshield extension that IMO*** kills the looks of the F3.

If you are one of "those" types that has to have a windshield then you should save your $$$. This way, there will be one less ugly F3 rolling around. :roflblack:

<I'm only joking ppl don't trip. If you want to ryde an ugly F3 I don't care.>

 

[PrairieSpyder]

Boy! Did you come to the wrong place!! hyea:

[BTW, Spyders are motorcycles, too.]

If you want someone to tell you that the F3 sucks, I think you need to go to a Harley forum . . .

Really... it's awesome and you'll love it too! In fact, it's so awesome that I bet you'll love it so much that you won't dream about riding a motorcycle again. You'll be dreaming about all the places you can go on your F3.

 

[Retired 2012]

Only have had two issues and both have been talked about before, vibration in the 68 to 72 mph range and for me only I guess, heat issues,, where the hot air hits my feet, ankles, and calfs. But I still love it. Have over 6200 miles on it since Feb. Best ride for my bad back, longest trip about 1400 miles in 7 days.
I get lots of smiles per mile, hope this helps you out.

:shocked: If it helps...

I prefer my RT! :yes::yes::yes:

Do you feel any better?

I have ridden for over 50 years and know how you feel.I have to agree tho I don't own an F3 but an RT. I have ridden an F3 and it was so much fun if I were single I would have traded on the spot. Now having said that,there is no reason you can't have both a 2 wheeler and a Spyder. Life is short,things change, go for it.

Just follow your heart now, you have read the replies to your post your heart will tell you what to do in time :thumbup:

 

[TommyBwell]

Best ride for my bad back.

I had back surgery last year so that is a factor also.

Thanks,
Tommy

So spend the money and keep the dream. Think of the Spyder as a temporary solution if that helps. Whatever works.
Good luck with the decision!
