Pretty sweet! Congrats

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
They just came in! Here is a sneak peak of our 16 F3-S Special Series!!

Congrats on the new ride / Not a fan of the matte finish on vehicles but that's why they make things differently 
Just a tip,, If you want to mess up your wheels keep tying it down the way you do n they'll be scuffed up nicely.. I seriously do like the look of the black chrome wheels tho...

Thanks for everyone's note's, they are greatly appreciated. The frustrating thing for me is that I've gotten the worst cold/bronchitis I've had in years, all at the same time these were delivered. :gaah:
I finally got myself to a point I felt I could get outside and ride this bad boy a little bit on Sunday which made my day! I bought these 2 Spyder's without ever test driving one, going off all of the posts of everyone saying how much fun they were to ride. I was a long timer motorcycle rider but my wife had never driven something on her own and ultimately took the course a week ago on a spyder. You should see her face when she's riding. That was worth the cost alone.
Interesting serial number set that my wife and the dealer pointed out. I have serial 005, my wife has......007. Yes, the infamous James Bond 007 which really made it that much more special to her. Unfortunately she get's the James Bond treatment, I get the "Johnny 5" comparison. You'll have to look that movie fact up if you don't know. Until then I'll be searching for something better than Johnny 5.
I have to say as a brand new rider coming from a motorcycle and not test drive beforehand, I was seriously blown away. First let me say that they are a blast to drive but I was honestly surprised how much it is NOT like a motorcycle ride. It really is like riding a snowmobile on wheels. Atleast that's the only way for me to explain it. Very different but equally fun to ride. I also found it very intuitive and easy to ride however I did read through all of the do's and don't on here before hand. No death grip, slow down and power through the curves and brake with your foot. It will take me a little bit of time to make sure I'm not riding the brake and shifting through the right rpm's.
I have to say that I really do love the look of these in triple black. They look "sick" up close and personal. We have a number of accessories ordered that will make it look like the Bonneville edition without the Bonneville wheels or exhaust. Basically making it look sportier. I wasn't sure about the black chrome rims from all of the pictures online but honestly they look awesome in person. They are really nice looking rims and I wouldn't change a think about them. Most of the accessories should be in by the end of the week and the dealer is going to pick them both back up and put the accessories on all at one time.
Once I can get over this nasty bug I want to get it out on the road up and up to speed to really feel how it rides. I just took it around my neighborhood and really didn't get it up past 40. Hopefully in the next couple of days I will be over the crud and be able to get outside to really enjoy these.

I came from several years on two wheels, and found the exact same thing you did. It was several miles before I quit reaching for "phantom" clutch and brake levers. Having never ridden a snowmobile or a jetski, I had a few things to unlearn - but actually, I found the "learning" process a lot of fun.
Having gotten my F3s just a month ago, I still don't have a lot of miles on it, but I can honestly say I'm a lot more comfortable in the twisties and at highway speeds - than the first few miles. Yes, the Dos and Don't post helped a lot. Really looking forward to Spring now.
All of my last few rides were the kind where you don't really want to return home and put it in the garage.... you just want to keep riding. :doorag:
Hope you can shake off that crud real soon.

F3's Not
Several people had done air box & eliminated Cat to muffler modifications. I would like to know if there is any documented proof of performance aka rwhp & also if any ECU re-flashing was required.
attached is a video after I replaced the carburetor jets on my F3's. count the seconds between 70 mph & 145 mph. Remember I'm here to help:yes
r No t:shocked::shocked:.
Oh' look--I just saw a flock of flying pigs go by...:yikes::yikes:
