RETURN COSTS & RESTOCKING FEE (ASSEMBLED ITEMS)
🚫 No Returns or Refunds on Assembled Shafts
Please note that all assembled shaft orders are final. Due to the custom nature of this process, we do not accept returns or offer refunds on any assembled shafts. Each order is built to your specifications, and once assembly begins, we are unable to restock or resell the components.
We encourage you to double-check all specs (flex, length, grip, adapter, etc.) before placing your order. If you need help confirming details, our team is happy to assist before you check out.
Returns can be made on non-personalized items and non-assembled items within the US, 60 days after you've received the original order. Items are only accepted on unopened and unused products. Items must be returned in the original packaging.
INTERNATIONAL RETURNS
We do not accept any international returns at this time.
At Grips4less, we strive to provide a smooth international shopping experience. To ensure clarity regarding shipping, duties, and returns, please review our policy below:
Duties, Taxes, and Import Fees
- International orders may be subject to duties, taxes, and import fees imposed by your country. These charges are the customer's responsibility and are determined by local customs authorities.

Refused or Unpaid Shipments
- If an international order is refused or the required duties/taxes remain unpaid, the carrier may return the package to us.
- In such cases, customers will be responsible for all shipping costs, including outbound and return shipping fees.
- Refunds for returned shipments will be issued minus all incurred shipping fees.
Lost or Delayed Shipments
- Once an international order has shipped, we are not responsible for delays caused by customs processing or other carrier-related issues.
- If a package is significantly delayed, we encourage customers to contact their local customs office or the carrier for more information.

Fujikura Motore X Driver & Fairway Shaft
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
The Fujikura Motore X is one shaft name with two profiles. The F3 has a low-mid bend point and launches mid-high with mid spin, and the F1 has a mid-high bend point and launches low-mid with low-mid spin, so you pick the flight first and the weight second. Both are built on a multi-material core with full-length 40-ton carbon fiber, and the paint is a lightweight process that saves up to 6 g, so more of the weight you're holding is structure. This is the raw shaft: 46" uncut, 2.5" parallel tip, 0.335" tip diameter, in 10 options from an F3 5 R2 to an F1 8 X. Nothing cut, nothing installed.
Not sure Motore X is your profile? Take the 2-Minute Shaft Quiz or see where it sits in The Fujikura Shaft Guide.
Who It's For
Good fit if you...
- Know whether you need more height or less, and want a shaft that lets you choose the flight by profile instead of by guesswork
- Played an original Motore F1 or F3 years ago and want the current version of that shaft
- Want a 40-ton carbon shaft that loads smoothly and don't need the VeloCore+ core in a Ventus
- Build your own clubs or have a fitter who'll cut, tip and install it for you
Not the right fit if you...
- Want the tightest dispersion on off-center hits. That's the VeloCore+ core in the Ventus Blue
- Need something lighter than 57 g or a ladies flex. The Vista Pro 45 and 55 series are the lighter, higher-launching choice
- Need a TX flex. The Motore X we sell runs R2 to X
- Want it cut to length with the adapter and grip already on. Order the assembled Motore X instead
How It Plays
Two profiles, one name. The F3 bends lower in the shaft, so the tip releases and the ball climbs: mid-high launch, mid spin. The F1 bends higher, closer to your hands, so the tip stays quieter and the ball comes off flatter: low-mid launch, low-mid spin. Same materials, same feel in the handle. The number after the letter is the weight series, and the only place the two overlap is the 7 series.
Smooth load, stable finish. The 40-ton carbon in the core is what you feel at the bottom of the swing. The shaft bends easily through transition, then stiffens up where it counts so the head arrives square. If a Ventus has felt like a board to you, this is the Fujikura with 40-ton carbon and a friendlier load.
Torque tracks the profile. The F3 runs from 5.2 degrees in the 5 R2 down to 3.9 in the 7 X, and the F1 from 4.1 in the 6 S to 3.3 in the 8 X. Even the lightest F3 isn't loose, and the F1 8 X is as tight as anything in the Pro line.
Picking a profile, weight and flex, and what to tip
- Profile before weight. If your driver flight is low and you're losing carry, you want the F3. If it balloons or spins up into the wind, you want the F1. Decide that first, then match the weight to the shaft in your driver now.
- R2 and R live in the F3 5 series only. At 57 to 59 g with the softest tip in the lineup, the F3 5 is the senior and regular flex choice. Everything in the F1 is S or X.
- The 7 series is the crossover. It's the one weight you can get in both profiles, 76 to 77 g in the F3 and 78 to 79 g in the F1. If you're a stiff flex player in the mid 70s and can't decide, that's where to compare them.
- The F1 8 X is a fairway weight. At 85 g it's built for a 3 wood or a mini driver in the hands of a fast player. Very few golfers want it in a full-size driver.
- Tip trimming. Fujikura's chart is 0" for a driver or 3 wood, 0.5" for a 5 wood, 1.0" for a 7 wood and 1.5" for a 9 wood, and every inch you tip is roughly one flex stiffer. Those are suggestions only, and the chart doesn't recommend tipping a driver or 3 wood at all. With a 2.5" parallel section, don't tip past 1.5".
- Adjustable hosel? You'll need an adapter for your head. The 0.335" tip fits every current driver and fairway adapter we carry.

How the Motore X Profiles Compare
| Profile | Launch | Spin | Bend Point | Weights | Builds We Sell |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Motore X F3 (You're here) | Mid-high | Mid | Low-mid | 57 to 77 g | 5 R2, 5 R, 5 S, 7 S, 7 X |
| Motore X F1 (You're here) | Low-mid | Low-mid | Mid-high | 68 to 85 g | 6 S, 6 X, 7 S, 7 X, 8 X |
Both profiles are on this listing; pick the one you want from the dropdown. Launch, spin and bend point are Fujikura's ratings. Fujikura publishes no swing speed range for the Motore X, so we don't print one. Want the same two-profile idea with Fujikura's Advanced Bend Profile instead? That's the Pro Blue and Pro Black. The whole brand lineup is in The Fujikura Shaft Guide.
