Beautiful Spyder! I have a 2023 F3 Limited and I purchased the F3 over the RT mostly because of the RT's gas filler position under the seat. And I do prefer the looks of the F3 as I think it is a little sporter looking. My F3L is in gloss black with a little yellow trim. Ride safe!
@@terryclair2914 Hi Terry. Thank you. I do agree the F3’s are sportier, but I wanted the big touring bike. I’m sure yours is beautiful in the gloss back. I appreciate that you commented and safe riding my friend.
Good video. I haven’t gotten the radiator guards yet but Slingmods is having a Black Friday sale so I’ll order them at the discount. I’m trying to decide whether I want to blue accents in the grills to match the motorcycle.
@@gregfaucher6338 Thank you Greg. Well I would say that if you went with the blue ones, they will stand out more. If you go with the black ones, they are more stealthy. It’s just a personal choice. Either way, I think they look great and they definitely protect the radiator.
I have a 2022 Sea to Sky. I also changed the seat piston. Too new for any issues to surface. Added a Carpuride W702 GPS, back rest, arm rests, grill guards, drink holder, highway pegs. Soon to add the light bar.
I always liked the Shamrock wheels. I do like S2S wheels. Had to replace the battery and rear trunk shock. Need to replace seat shock. I have a 22 RTL.
@@chuckwilson2301 Hi Chuck. Thank you for commenting. Yep, I know a lot of people like those wheels, they just aren’t for me. Sorry you had to replace the battery so soon. Do you use a battery tender on it when your motorcycle sits for a while?
@@JerseySpyder Hello JS, I haven’t used a battery tender yet. I have been riding enough to keep the battery charged. On the first battery the post were loose and a VSS code was appearing on the screen. After the new battery was replaced I have not had any problems. Thanks for the reply and advice. Ride safe out there.
Nice trike. Agree with the wheels needing a change. Just installed that case on my F3T and was contemplating changing that strut but maybe waiting for it to fail first. A small recommendation Is getting the top cuff from lamonster garage to attach the drink holder. I never really trusted those phone holder style. I have been using a quadlock since 2021 without a problem. Leaves the bars looking less cluttered in my opinion. My seat cushion went flat so I’m heading to Amazon for a new one. I also put a small square of clear bra on top of the top case near the logo so I don’t scratch the top when closing the lid. Good luck with the new job.
Nice additions to your Spyder. I wad hoping to get the chrome finish on my 2022, but, for some reason, it wasn't offered with the blue petrol color that I wanted. So I bought the Sea-to-Sky in mystery blue with matte silver accents. Front grills are a must and do protect the radiators.
I have a 2013 rt limted.me and the wife like everything on mine I love my wheels.i wish I had the 1300 cc but the 998/991/989 is okay.but like anything a person can complain but nothing is everything you want and i figured if i got a problem fix or get something else you like . so you can find a problem with something on that.i wish it could fly too but im good.but it seems to be you have basic issues every one else has some or more than others let me know when you get the perfect bike.i got a lot of the accessories you have too .but thank you for the info
@@kennethwoods2071 Hi Ken thank you for commenting. Your right, there is no perfect motorcycle, but I love my 2022 Spyder and it is exactly what I was looking for.
Got the front lower grill light on mine switched version not the plug & play you can now get. Also changed out the front fender reflectors to lights & the rear side storage bags too. Disagree about the wheels rims as I have a chrome model in the red & like them to the dark ones. You may want to get some grills to protect your radiators! Ride safe, regards Stephen Alberta Canada.
@@fire3048 Yes, I know a lot of people probably love those wheels, but they just aren’t my style. I did purchase the grill guards for the radiator. 😁 I’m contemplating getting the fender lights to replace the reflectors. Safe travels to you Stephen. Thank you for commenting.
Nice video. Interested in your seat pad/cover--great idea. Did you say Teemu? Timu? Either way, I don't see it on Amazon. Can you help with brand name/ description? Or maybe an Amazon link? Thanks!
@@JoshHooper Hi Josh. I found it on Temu and it was super cheap. There’s no brand name on it. This one I found on Amazon is similar. a.co/d/cB93GsI I appreciate you commenting. If you need anything else, please let me know. Happy and safe riding my friend.
@@Ruleof2plus1 thank you for commenting my friend. Hey, like you, when it’s unbearably hot, I’ll sport the shorts and tee. I prefer not to, but with riding there are always risks.
I am new to the Spyder world, I personally think the older models have a lot more personality but do like the ride / ergonomics of the newer models. I have a 23 RT-L I picked up last year and I've added a lot of little mods to mine, I did the same running light, the Lamonster Top Cuffs on both sides, I have my Phone on one side using the Quad-Lock Mount and my Garmin on the other side. I am still trying to find a good drink holder I've had issues with everyone I've tried so far including the Gold Strike which so many seem to love. Oh I have the same Matte Color but mine is the Dark... It was the one I got the best deal on so no complaints... I have only 4k miles on mine but thankfully haven't had any issues yet, not even the failed seat / trunk supports **knock on wood**
@@Boston_Pete thank you for commenting. Wow, you’re the first person I’ve heard of so far that hasn’t had an issue with the seat and trunk lid pistons. Hopefully you never do.
