This thread has been focused on features.
I'd like to address what I feel would be an improvement on process.
It would be of great benefit if you could order your Spyder either custom built, or with more "packaged" options.
For instance, if you want the tri-axis bars, you have to buy your spyder, have it delivered to the dealer, then buy the tri-axis bars and have the dealer remove the perfectly good oem bars that you bought and install the tr-axis ones. All at a very high price.
It would be far more efficient and les costly to have the tri-axis bars installed at the factory.
The same goes with all the chrome doo-dads. It would be cheaper and easier to order up the chrome installed from the factory.

Just my opinion, I could be wrong. If I am, someone on this forum will surely let me know.

I guess that I am slightly underwhelmed--but not down and out.

Likes:
:ani29:: They have spiffed up some of the packages on the F3. I think they look nice.
:ani29:: The rear end treatment on the F3 T and F3 Limited looks an awful lot like the Honda F6B or Valkerie--which I like.
:ani29:: The new blue RT color is nice. Many wanted that back.

Not so much:
:ani29:: No new back end treatment on the RT.
:ani29:: Color choices are down and black is back.

My prediction about the demise of the RS was not correct.
My prediction about not much change with anything except for color was on.

I'll bet the prices have changed... and NO .. they did not go down..

Can't match the storage YET. Give it a year or so to make them bags a bit bigger and add a big top box and it's game over...[emoji16] [emoji33] You RT old fogies are doomed! [emoji38] [emoji38]

You might be right... :shocked:
They'll grow the F-3 into something like this...

And then they'll realize that they still haven't fixed the lack of storage up front... :yikes:
So with some re-arranging of the nosepiece; it'll look just like this!

:shocked: oh crap...
