Posted on the fly in the airport while running for a flight, prices to follow.
Anyone in the southern NM area interested, I have a brand-new, never installed set of Federal Formozas, 165/55r15's. $100 for the pair. Also a new in the box BajaRon sway bar for a 2016 RT, fits...
I've got Federals over here in Cloudcroft I've yet to install. Be interested to hear what you decide for pressure settings. It's on mu list for next week, though.

I rebuilt a 1983 Yamaha Venture from ebay and other places using gold and black Tupperware. The original busted-up pieces were black only. I really like the contrast even though I despise the...
As a fellow noob, I experienced this effect yesterday riding the mountain roads after a passing shower. Could not tell where the moisture was coming from but looks like I will be investing in a rear...
I'm finding I am using different, but not necessarily more, arm technique than on two-wheelies. Last weekend I went for a 100-mile ride through the mountains here, and after several miles of...
...from another noob. Nothing like diving right in and learning about your ride, too bad it wasn't on your home turf. You've got a great dealership there in Mesa, from the sound of it. Wish all the...
I'm still in the weaning stage on the Spyder after 40+++ years of two-wheels-only so try not to laugh at my lack of knowledge, but how are the handlebars connected? Pretty sure it can't be any sort...
Thanks for the link, just ordered the A-dapter.:riding:
I've got the same jack as in post #1, bought a few years ago as a motorcycle jack. I used it once on the Spyder but not comfortable with the placement. Where is a good spot for lifting?
Still in the hunt?
Under warranty still, right? If so it's time IMO to call BRP and get them in the loop, this has gone beyond anything reasonable for a new machine. BRP can "reach out" to your original dealer to impel...
My install also includes turn signal farkels on the mirrors with all the associated wiring crammed in behind the mirrors. Before the MMs it was a chore getting everything out of the way when...
Looked at this same seat, but my wife had a private chat with the Farkel Faerie and haven't seen her since! The Farkel Faerie. Not my wife. You know, because my wife talked...oh never mind. I feel...
Thanks for the update to the thread, might help keep those of us out of trouble who are just getting into the farkeling business!
There are three 2014s on ebay within 600 km of Hamilton (New Jersey all) and one on Craigslist in Rensselaer Falls, Cognac with 5700 miles on it, doesn't look horribly far from your location....
Hmm. Mine did last week. Curiouser and curiouser.:dontknow:
I was looking for a cutesy name for the Spyder and ended up calling it "Dust Devil". Not sure it will ever be clean again (pics to follow once I get back home)!
Seriously, 10 miles round-trip to...
Ditto the install, went off without a hitch but I attribute that to hearing over and over about being careful with the magnets. I found that a slight twisting motion back and forth while pulling...
Mine came yesterday. Mailbox is on a community rack serviced by our local PO folks. Had to yank to get the package out of the iron box so I've already had a warmup witout even opening the shipping...
Yessiree. My old adaptation of the saying went "No fear...no *@##!!$*&@!* brains!" Actually still applies. I'm just really low on wads left to shoot, wanna make sure they're worthwhile shots. Like...
Yep, and so far it's only an occasional issue on the canyon road when a small tumbledown happens and several rocks get strewn across the path. I'll most likely stop and clear the way in thoses...
Love your icon pic!
Only done one fill up, too early to know for me, but every ride will have a 5000 foot vertical section over a 16 mile run.
Thanks for all the great replies. Sadly Dust Devil is gonna be sitting cold and lonely in the garage for a month while we trek back east for the annual relative visits. Hope I don't forget too much...
Went for my second ride today, about 60 miles' worth. Not much but enough to figure some things out. Seemed twitchy again, especially at higher speeds so concentrated on being more light and relaxed...
Yessir, started reading about tires while thinking about getting Dust Devil ( the name I gave her today riding down the canyon in a cloud of, um, dust). Most thread address the rear tire, got a good...
We easy to spot, ain't we?:bowdown:
Lingo-ing up is always a learning curve for noobs. 1st time I read that someone had farkled their frunk I wondered what kind of peeps were on this site!!
But...
ROLO. FOBO. BUDS. It's like being back in the USAF!
:yikes:
Interesting site. Too bad no dealers in NM or WesTex.
BUDS? FNG still learning the lingo. Also stumped about ROLO.:dontknow:
Yeah, they seemed kinda scattered both times I was there. Just spread too thin for what they're trying to do. Bike actually came from the Los Lunas store so I'm thinking the battery was installed...
