Just a little late to the party but thanks anyway. I havent signed on the dotted line for my F3 just yet hence the homework to see what its like living with a can-am. All things being equal that situation will be resolved over the coming months. Wishing you health & happiness !

Captain Chris- as a relatively new captain of my first "big boat", I appreciate the gear selector call-outs. it gives a great feel for your strategy as you maneuver the boat.

Great info, subbing. I just got my new/lightly used Spyder F-3S It’s a 2021. It only had 705 miles on it. Hoping to add a battery tender for storage this winter. Cold and crappy here in the far west burbs of Chicago, so there will be little opportunity to ride much this year, COME ON SPRING!

Thanks this video was very informative. All other videos about this only list the positives. I was thinking of buying a used F3 as my daily driver until I graduate college. I'll pretty much just be driving to campus and home; when I start my internship maybe to work as well but only in the spring and summer months; but I doubt I can afford all the upgrades you have. . Would you recommend buying the syder for a daily driver? Or an even better question: Would you use the spyder for your daily commute without all your upgrades?
@bikeboatbark82815 жыл бұрын
Yes the Spyder without the upgrades will be absolutely fine for a daily commute. A windshield will help a lot in bad weather if you can afford to add that.
