Hey fellow spyder lovers! Here are a few snap shots of Immortal Kustomz' spyder from the SEMA show. It has ipod controlled sound system (Arc Audio components), home link garage door opener, 17" wheels, wider fenders, completely redesigned front nose, and carbon fiber side panels. All these parts will be available in a few weeks......enjoy!
yes, wheels are here and available.......

what is body kit going to cost?
just got e-mail from company
I understand what you mean by pricey but those wheels are billet aluminum as are most custom bike wheels. We feel that these are priced very aggresively because if you google billet motorcycle wheels you will find prices ranging from $1200-$1600 per wheel....that's for 2 wheelers and this is a bargin for 3 wheels.....Hope that helps you understand the price a little better. Thanks for the compliment too! :2thumbs:These are not for everyone either, only those who desire something different........I will post more pics later
ok...havent seen them though, who makes and what booth?

Hey tatt2r, do what I did. Tell the kid that when something breaks, Dad's credit card doesn't work anymore, he/she will be much more careful.

Really nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup: How much do you think all that cost to do?
Am I the only one that thinks this modified :spyder:is really ugly.. It appears people must change something just 'because' and not for any good reason, this certainly looks like a quick mod, and nothing else. The original is not perfect, but is sure better than this....................:barf:
I have always been one to believe that the manufacturer knows what is best for your vehicle. Sure, cosmetic mods and comfort mods are likely safe, but going from a 14 inch (or is it 15 inch) tire to a 17 inch certainly not only throws off your odometer and speedometer, it might also throw off your VSC system and change your center of gravity, thus making the bike more dangerous.
The Spyder is unique as it is...to me, I'll make it brighter from the front and behind for safety reasons. I'll add a few creature comforts and safety features (mirror extensions and the like), and a nicer exhaust system, but I'll never modify the core elements of the bike such that it could make it more dangerous on the road.
It's great to have a 'more' unique bike, but if it's more likely to get you injured, it's worth no amount of money....
;)
I think it is UGLY as well. Loks to me like it has been kicked and has swolen lips !!! No thanks. I love Spydie just the way she is.

Please don't hurt me!
First let me address a previous thread, this was not a "quick mod" and aftermarket is not for everyone, some individuals enjoys something different. The manufacture always provides a great platform to start with and for the end user to do with as they please....With that being said, upgrading to our 17" wheel package does not raise the center of gravity of the vehicle or change the VSS system or through off the speedometer reading because we spent timeless hours ensuring that the revs/mile of the wheel & tire combo we put out meet the standards set by Can-Am. So to correct your statement, none of that is affected. What we simply did is called plus-sizing and when done properly, nothing changes. The numbers are the same. THE BIKE IS NOT DANGEROUS WITH THESE MODIFICATIONS. Forums are for informative purposes and consumer discussion with occasional advertising, if you do not have the proper information to back up the statements you make, please do not make them. It is unfair to the other individuals within the community.:dontknow:Quote:

The lights you are looking at are the new fog lights. the headlights are now the Can-Am factory fog lights with an HID up grade. They more than light up the road. The dealer we talked with before buying this kit informed us that the actual headlight is only used as a high beam in Europe and the fog light kit comes standard and is the low beam. So to answer your question, the headlights are high enough. :2thumbs:Quote:

Sure, it's not for everyone, but neither is the Spyder and each of us makes anything from a minor to a major change to "customize" our machine to what suits us. We need more innovators like you, as most of us don't have the time or facilities to do it ourselves.
I agree.Quote:

Thanks:2thumbs:, we are continuing to develop more products for the Spyder and are open to any suggestions, if you have an idea you want to see brought forth and there is enough interest, we will give it a shot. That is how this kit came about.....Quote:

Where's the rear wheel hugger?
I use the same name, NautiBrit, but haven't posted in quite some time. I blew a rear tire several months ago, and have only recently had an opportunity to get it to BigBF to replace the front and rear. Unfortunately, the carbs are now acting up because it sat so long and Bill is taking care of that also.Quote:

If you go without the subwoofer, you get 6.5" coaxial speakers instead of the 5.25" that come with the subwoofer package. If you utilize your trunk for alot of storage, the subwoofer option is not for you. I will have pictures up by Friday of the non subwoofer option.Quote:
