That tank does scratch easily. That's a definite mod! Looks great!

Outstanding. I just purchased a used 2013 SPYDER RSS. I come from a 2 wheel community. At 58 years of age with osteoarthritis, especially in my hips, I no longer am enjoying riding on a 2 wheel bike. A few months ago, I test road the ryker and spyder F-3. I was hooked immediately. Ryker is cool, but for cruising, I much rather enjoyed the spyder. Appreciate your channel. Stay safe

That Lamonster brake rod is gold!

I truly do appreciate your intelligence and honesty.

You, my back, and behind are the reason i changed from Ryk to Spy. I bought the best windshield custom made from Gustafsson Plastics out of Florida. I was riding in winds of 23 mph and was riding when others bikers were on the side. Best purch. Also a tank pro, phone holder, mini mirror, and frunk organiser.

I've been interested in a frunk organizer too, but I've come up with a little system that is working for me for the time being. Enjoy your Spyder!

Excellent suggestions and will consider when the time comes. Currently Ryker Rally owner and thinking seriously about getting a Spyder. Thanks 👊🏾

For sure man, most important part is that you get out and enjoy what you have.

I'm a definite believer in the cargo net! Earlier this year, I had put a waterproof cover on my backpack and had it bungee to my backseat, but the cover acted as a parachute and sucked that backpack right out from under the bungees. It got run over by a semi LOL but luckily it only had clothes in it and my clothes were protected though the bag was destroyed. Lesson learned!

Just about to go out on my F3-S in southwest Portugal - I am a retired Brit. The standard footpeg position is fine for my 33'' inside leg. I can stretch my legs out and rest my heels on the pegs on long, quiet roads if I wish. I never contact the fuel tank when getting on or off. I never use cargo nets. I always ride with my 25-litre Shad bags in place. I think the OE mirrors are fine. I keep my phone in my pocket. The background music is distracting.

First rate content as always! I'm so happy I switched from my Ryker Rally to the 2022 F3S! How about a video about care and cleaning? You did a great one I used on my Ryker for a long time!

Great idea! I've actually got some new tips for the different finish of my Spyder F3. Thanks for the suggestion!

Great video 👍 you mentioned shutting off your Spyder to open the frunk , did you know you can open it with the bike running? Try it it works 😃

Good selections, I love the suggestion about the Lamonster brake linkage. Wish I knew about it before I put mine on (BRP position 5) - had it done when I purchased my Special Series. You are right on the brake pedal location, and it would make a big difference having it lower as you've shown for the Lamonster version. I like the convex mirrors suggestion as well - will have to look into that. That said, my immediate accessories purchases included the brake linkage, BRP passenger backrest and armrests (specifically for my 12 year old son), LED headlights (Slingmods), USB handlebar mount with RamMount phone holder (Slingmods), and the F4 windshield (also Slingmods). LEDs are brighter than the factory halogens. The USB mount/RamMount is perfect for holding my phone while charging - it's so good my phone is always fully charged after using! I've seen mixed opinions on the windshield, and admittedly the F4 is a big windshield - but it provides great wind blocking and bug/debris avoidance! The first week of me driving - before the windshield arrived - I got hit with so many bugs it was like someone throwing stones at me! Worse case now, I just gotta clean my windshield, but I don't get hit at all. One of my favorite mods I did shortly thereafter are the Slingmods (TricLED) fender signal indicators. They look absolutely beautiful and are so much more functional than the base turn signals. Thanks for a cool video with good options on accessory ideas.

LEDs are high up on my list of future mods. At night time the stock lights are a little lacking. Just undecided on if I want to just replace the bulb or do an aftermarket housing with running lights etc.

@@3WheelKhalil yeah another great resource - Moabman - did a video on the newer housing and it looks really good. Costs more but has the LEDs plus turn signal added into the housing. It's on Slingmods and worth checking out.

Interesting on the brake from Lamonster... I'm guessing I'm at position 3... I have a floorboard and I'm just used to the brake where it's at. 🤷‍♀️ I can easily cover the brake.

Even with floorboards, the Lamonster brake rod is best!

Congratulations to the winner! Hmmm... My two favorite mods are the Baja Ron sway bar and the Elka stage 2 shocks... What a difference in handling in the twisties!

Any insight into the F3-S vs F3-T? I like the sporty styling of the F3-S, but the T has some great features like intergrated speakers. Have you done anything for music?

Could you please go over how you connect a Bluetooth helmet(if you have one) with your BRP connect.

Just a quick line to say Hi ' its time for an update' how are you & the spyder bonding with each other? Its been a long time since Ive worn a crash helmet but finally one chosen, Ruroc Atlas 4 Ghost & I'm hovering over the buy button for the 'BreakFreeTech helmet brake light. ( I was originally looking for an additional stop & tail light fitting above the license plate so thats not off the table just yet. Can not wait for some warmer weather, we had snow today & thats not on my three wheel wish list. Take care out there, wishing you & your lady health & happiness. p.s. I'm also hovering over the buy button for the LeMans Tracer wrap from wrapmyspyder.

@3WheelKhalil

Yeah, I think the their thought is that the rider's foot position on pegs wouldn't allow for full brake modulation. That just isn't the case, it actually feels much more natural for me (and many others).

The ones I think..the ultimate baja ron sway bar w links, the back rest, the Lazer alignment, tour windshield, any lighting, headlites, tail, dynamic driving type.., etc

Found this vid. As for lamonster brake rod, there is a disclaimer on site that is not to be with pegs. How it been working out.
