There's nothing you can do, just return them and buy something else. I had a bitch of a time convincing Vortex they don't fit. Took some pictures to show them it won't fit and they finally agreed to reimburse me. Unfortunatley Vortex doesn't let their distributors know about them not fitting F3's so bunch of people are getting screwed on them.

I think the woodcraft ones are supposed to fit. Contact the company to verify it though.

I have an F2 with Woodcrafts... awesome. They say you can mount them under the triple clamp... but my master cylinder hits the gauge cluster. I'd buy another set of Woodcrafts for any bike I had.
