The Spyder is the only vehicle I've ever dispatched because of mechanical issues. Every HD I've ever owned has been reliable, for that matter I have never owned anything that gave me as many issues...
A very good point.. While I had my Spyder I noticed that the road itself plays a role in the way the Spyder steers at times. The times I had issues with my power steering was always a slower parking...
Lamont, the last thing that I think any of us here would say or think is that you've lost any credibility over any of this.
You've given the Spyder a community that has provided a lot of good...
Actually the HD forums is the largest most active forum I belong to. I've actually met more riding buddies through there than anywhere else.
Anyone can go to the NHTSA website and file a report also about anything they want......
Enough said...
I got $10k for mine on trade, not too bad I though. Of course the dealer went out of business shortly there after.
I can guarantee that I cost BRP the sale of at least 1 Spyder for certain. It was a rider that I didn't know before I had my Spyder, but we had numerous conversations about my Spyder and he would...
I normally stay out of the "Spyder problems" threads, but I just can't help myself on this one.
My Spyder was a maintenance nightmare, I counted among my problems the relay issues, bad exhaust...
The York plant is going to close because of HD's plan to build a new plant here in the US that will consolidate some of it's manufacturing. I think the last 3 states in the running are Kansas,...
It's the for real. HD included it in their 3rd quarter financial report. Not a big surprise really considering they never went out of their way to market the Buell.
Also up on the chopping block...
Experienced rider or not I can guarantee that disabling the VSS would provide you with a riding experience that you've never had before. When I had my Spyder I disabled mine, against the advice of...
Most of the problems I ran across with the pairing of cellphones was an issue with the phone itself. When I first started using the scala I had a Palm Treo and it sucked with both the headset and...
No thanks, I've dealt with Sunsports cycle and they'll never get anymore of my business. I avoid them like the plague.
Was down in Ft. Myers this afternoon and decided to swing by WestCoast Motorsports, much to my surprise their store was closed. I remembered that they were going to move next door to Ft. Myers Harley...
If you've never driven a semi then you don't realize how hard it is to see small vehicles out of your mirrors at time. A good bit of advice is to spend as little time as possible along side the semi...
I actually did the exact opposite, sold the Spyder because I found myself wanting to ride 2 wheels more than the Spyder. I always had at least one 2 wheeler in the garage along with the Spyder but...
I had a set made a couple years aog and use them very little. On long rides they start to hurt. Plus their customer services sucks. Took them 10 weeks to make mine and hsip them to me. Also unless...
Did you adjust the rear suspension as the Industries 7 instructions advised?
After having gotten an Ipod Touch and playing with it for a couple weeks now I'm very close to canning my Blackberry from Verizon and ordering up an Iphone.
My Geico policy covers towing of motorcycles. Even had a deal where I didn't want to use the service they were going to send out so they let me call my own tow and all I had to do was send in the tow...
I picked up an 09 KLR650, which is what my main ride was when I bought the Spyder. I'd been missing the ability to tear off down any dirt road I found.
Well after a lot of deliberation I opted to trade my Spyder off this weekend and have gone back to 2 wheels full time.
The Spyder still IMHO remains an exciting ride and is a lot of fun, but for...
Must be the wind deflectors that now come with the windshield. I agree with you though, my business would be going somewhere else. The dealer took payment in full without knowing when those products...
+1, I agree the dealer is the one that should be making this right. My dealer showed me the photos of the windshield several months back, but made no mention of pricing. Told me they weren't sure of...
That's true...But I went down hard enough with a full face that my chin strap broke and it nearly cost me an eye. Something like the IS-33 is the least amount of coverage I would go with, no beanie...
Good to hear some input on the IS-33, my wife and I were looking at them last weekend and have been considering picking up a couple.
Things like that have their place. You see a lot of them around Daytona Beach for example as rentals for people to play around in. Key West is big on rental scooters also and you'll see these things...
Well it's important for me to note that I haven't checked my brake fluid level. That was another poster who noted going through copious amounts of brake fluid. However when I asked my dealer to...
That's the Kissimmee Florida police department. God bless Florida.:2thumbs:
Can't make the left wheel skid. When it was in the shop for the leaking gaskets and bad plug wire I had mentioned to the service manager that my brake pedal felt soft. It feels like there's no...
