Made a "BIG Mistake" - rode an F3 Limited!!!

[BLACK REV 800 X]

Jimmy,

After "cooling down" a bit, I have come to a similar conclusion. For the 2016's, the only two significant upgrades (in my mind, at least) with the Limited compared with the F3-T are the auto-adjusting rear shocks and the foot boards for the rider. There is also the sound system, but I rarely listen to music when I am riding my motorcycle and, if I do, I can use my phone and Bluetooth to my helmet. I am most concerned about any performance and mechanical advantages, and I really don't see any with the Limited. I am fine with manually adjusting the rear air shock on the F3-T. So, if the ride is the same, I am starting to set my sights on an F3-T and just adding the foot board as an accessory. There is more of an upgrade with the 2017's, in that the Limited has a passenger seat and top box, but that puts the price above that which I paid recently for a new SUV!! And it looks like the top box shortens the passenger seat. The 2017 F3-T does have a sound system, but, again, that's not a big deal for me.

So, presently, I am looking for a good deal on a 2016 F3-T. My two previous motorcycle purchases were used bikes, and I would consider that. But if I could get a killer deal on a new 2016 F3-T, that would be ideal.

Thanks,
Wayne

I've been doing the same research and understand the 16 F3 Limited has the same manual rear air suspension preload adjustments as the F3T?

F3t

Good thinking. I opted for the F3T instead of the Ltd because I didn't want so much chrome. And most other features that come with Ltd can be added to a T.

When you get one, don't forget to post and update and a pic!

I did the same thing. Added the vibration damper backrest and floor boards and I'm just ecstatic with the outcome.
