I have a 2012 RT with 9577 miles and the tires look like they did with 100 miles on them. They are OEM Kendas.

As far as tire wear is concerned, I have a Star Stratoliner and never get more than...

I have a 2012 RT S with 9600 miles and I have had 0 problems except that it uses oil like a '67 Buick.

Agreed. Much ado about nothing.

800-900 miles per day? Baloney

I also have a little over 6000 miles on my 2012 RT and am about to take my first trip of any length.

I am heading from the St. Louis area to Elkhart Lake WI to watch 4 days of Grand Am and...

Get used to it. These things use oil; more than any other vehicle I have ever driven or ridden in my 66 years. My mechanic said even BRP will tell you that.

The last oil change, I complained to...

Say. Did you ever hear of the term "run on sentence"?

Sorry, I can't find any info about a top trunk mirror. Could someone post a link?

I make sure the bike is level and engine is warm. I give it time for the oil to settle into the pan. I pull out the dip stick and clean it off. I screw it all the way down and then remove it to...

I am pretty new to to the Spyder and this forum and my topic may have been discussed previously. If so, I apologize.
I have 3100 miles on a 2012 RT SE5 and have used a quart of oil so far. I follow...

OK, I will try adding some and hope it doesn't overflow.

Not all brakes make dust. I just changed the pads on my 4 runner after over 100,000 miles on the original set with no brake dust ever seen. Now I do have brake dust because I foolishly...

I found this thread by accident and hope it is still being monitored by those in the know. I bought a RT SE5 in July and have 2800 miles ± on it as I write. For 2 weeks I have been getting "Brake...

I also have a squeak or squeal when moving the spyder slowly after first starting up. It is inconsistent and intermittent and doesn't happen every time. Of course, once I proceed, the engine noise...

Mine RT SE5 (2 months old 3000 miles) vibrates at 4000 rpm and 5000 rpm. After 4200 and 5200 the vibration disappears. Since there is no other apparent adverse effect, I have just been living with...

St. Louis Power Sports is where I bought by RT in July. they seem to know what they are doing there. I now have 3000 trouble free miles. But am not crazy about the brakes.

I have put 2500 miles on my new 2012 Spyder RT and can't imagine how the brakes on the new edition could be any worse than those on my bike. I have owned a 1996 Kawasaki Voyager, and now own and ride...

I don't have any advice about trailering but I will say "that is one good looking trailer!!!":yes:

Be ready for snow in September in Yellowstone. I was there mid July once and woke up to a couple of inches of snow.

"Look where you are going because you will go where you are looking"

Screw the wave. I have been riding since 1967 and quit waving a couple of years ago. It used to mean something when you were on a bike but now there are so many my arm was getting tired with the...

I have 400 miles on my new 2012 RT and can only say "Amen brother". I don't know how many times I have sounded the horn instead of cancelling the turn signal or changed directions instead of...

I am new to the site and am also on the fence about purchasing a spyder. I have been riding motorcycles since my first in 1967, a brand new Honda S90 when I was a junior at Mizzou. I currently ride a...
