Hi all, my name is Mark from central Florida and I’m truly enjoying my 2022 F3 Limited. I came off a Harley Triglide because of arthritis in both hands (and 4 joint replacements). I love the power, suspension, steering and ergonomics of the F3 which fits my 6ft. frame well.
I’m a 75 year old Marine Vietnam vet who has ridden everything except Yamaha’s since 1965 and I love the technology on this trike (as a retired airline mechanic)! 👍😉
My only additions are a Gustafson 19” windscreen, Quadlock phone holder, Battery Tender floating charger, Lamonster backrest, Lamonster bottle holder, Lamonster flag holders, H-4 halogen headlight. Be safe out there folks…there are some nutso multitasking 4 wheel and 18 wheelers out there! 😬🥴😳😄

Welcome to the forum from North Carolina. Just what we need, another old guy. Just kidding.😀.

I’m 72 and there are plenty of members here our age. Also plenty have went over to the Spyders due to health and/or safety issues. They are a good group willing to share their expertise and humor.

Congratulations on your new trike. Ride Safely.

Thank you ‘Tourer’. I joined a nice group of CanAm riders with the Ocala Chapter here in Florida. It is a great group with weekend club rides and info to share. Thank you sir!

Hi Artie, thanks much. I’m also a Missouri boy who left the Kansas City area two years ago. I joined a CanAm Chapter down here as well as an AmVet Rider Chapter (the only Spyder Ryder 😬😬😄😄). Almost 75 and this machine puts a smile on my face! stay well Artie.
