    That's the weird thing - there were no rocks or anything in the sprockets at all - the belt seems to have degraded and the sprockets themselves were ripping the teeth off

    First Major Issue!

    Well, 21,000+ miles and I finally have had my first issue with the Spyder.

    On the way...

  13. Been There, Done it

    The Spyder is my first bike, and I've got about 19k miles on it now, so maybe its a fluke that I've hit a bird and had one *seriously* close encounter with a Bald Eagle - swear it would have scuffed...

    Living in WI, that's pretty much the same answer I give, "Less than a Harley!"
