• 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.

    Picked up my F3s today, 1st thoughts.

    Thanks, you did a very good job of explaining your experience so far. I have a party very interested in my 2008 GS. I will miss her, but I really want an F3. Thanks again for the write up, I enjoyed it.

    annybody switching for the f3

    You are really going to enjoy the ride. I remember you telling me I was going to like it... you were right. I'm pretty sure you will enjoy it too. The throttle is a lot more touchy than the GS. Don't go burning up the back tire:D

    looking forward to the demo ride Friday

    Ok folks, I waited to post this to make certain I got it all right for you. I went in with an open mind. I did a demo ride back when the RT came out and I knew a few minutes into the ride that the RT was not for me. I had the exact opposite thoughts a few minutes into the F3 ride. You don't ride...

    As far as delivery dates. When I ordered my 2008 GS SE5, I placed the order on April 2, 2008. I received my Spyder October 13, 2008. I sure hope it won't take that long for the F3.

    Well, I've gone thru the Build & Price twice for the new F3. One with all the goodies I would like and one with just what I need to keep from losing Deb off the back side.

    F3 S Demo ride

    First off, welcome to SpyderLovers. Sorry I don't have an opinion just yet. My demo ride is this Friday and I can't wait. I am already getting my head around selling my 2008 GS.

    Any interest in a Northern California Ride???

    Hi there. I am in the Fairfield area. I ride the delta, Lake Berryessa and I have been known to travel to the bay area to ride. With you being in the Sacramento area you should contact MelSpyderryder. He leads the Sacramento chapter of SROA and he is just a good guy (don't tell him I said that)...

    Kuryakyn parts

    I have multiple Kuryakyn products on my Spyder and enjoy them all. I ride a 2008 GS and the grips work fine for me. More widow products for the Spyder please.

    Rear fender supports

    Happens quite a bit. I removed the rear fender after the Chicago trip in 2010. Had to duct tape it back on all the way home to California.
