It's HERE!. It's beautiful. But there are some issues. Whoever owned her must have been 6 feet tall. I haven't sat on her with my boots so we'll see. Do you know if I can adjust the footboard a bit back?
Definitely will need to visit a dealer for a U-Fit, along with a laser alignment. Photos to follow!

The footboards can be adjusted - that is part of the U-Fit process BUT you may have to buy some parts like a different brake link to move the brake pedal. I have a position 4 link for sale $20 includes shipping for SL members.

Handle bars can be adjusted by buying different ones - I purchased the short reach for myself and have my original ones for sale - make reasonable offer.

Ok, Spyder arrives. It is beautiful. I sit on her and find that I can barely reach the footboards let alone the brake pedal
I had cleaned my helmet up and lined up my gloves, glasses, etc. ready to ride.
It was like getting a bunch of really cool toys on Christmas morning but without needed batteries. And all the stores are closed..(at least that was true when I was kid as the dinosaurs ruled the earth.)
:gaah::gaah::gaah:

Back to the computer searching for answers. Thanks to Lamonster Garage :bowdown:, I found his brake rod (#3). He even has an install video posted. And the rod will lower the the brake pedal as well.
So instead of riding, I've been ordering the necessary (and a few un-necessary) farkles as well as cleaning my bike garage in search of those I already have that fit the F3.

There will be photos. But I need to bring it out into the daylight. No brake, no move. (DH can't reach the brake either) Keep your tv's tuned to this station.
