F3 - In for a penny, in for a pound....

[ARtraveler]

Just a question...why would you buy anything before you rode it? You may decide after you ride it for a half hour that you don't like it. I really thought that I wanted the new Valkyrie until I test rode one. I hated it and decides that the CTX1300 is what I liked. I hope you like the F3.

I am another that has never test rode any :spyder2: before purchase. I did it because I wanted it. A couple times there was a waiting period of 6 to 7 months. In all cases, I have not been disappointed. No :ani29: has been perfect to fit my ergos due to bad back and hip. I made mods to suit me when I got them. I have never been disappointed with how the :spyder2: ran or the performance thereof. After the first Rotax 998 the other 3 were kind of no brainers. The ACE 1330 was new--but based on others reviews, I had a pretty good idea what was coming.

Purchase before testing could be a problem for some--but I think most have been happy.

I guess this is my way of saying that I placed an order with Pitbull today for a new F3, and I'm just feeling all giddy:yes:. I joined here a few months ago at SpyderAnn's suggestion (I've known both Ann and Joe for several years since Joe and I both have v-rods). I love the RT but I also love everything about cruisers, so until I saw the F3 for the first time, I was waffling on getting an RT. I am so looking forward to meeting people who I've followed here on the forum and learning more about the Spyder, "from the horse's mouth" so to speak.
