Does the shaking and shuddering go away when the engine is revved in neutral as well as gears? If yes, then check your plug wires for arcing and sparking. Park your Spyder in a shady place, take...
Best Appletini ever! :2thumbs:
The road to the Arctic Circle is paved the whole way. There's a gas station between it and Fairbanks. You can ride up and back in less than a day.
Thank you...
I'm here now and then... Thanks for letting me vent... Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones. :yes::cheers::yes:... Joy
My paternal grandmother's mother had "dementia." Her daughter, my grandmother, who died of Alzheimer's, had three children, my father, an aunt and an uncle. All three of the siblings had...
That happened to me too. There was a gas cap recall years ago to fix the problem. Check your gas cap to see if it's a robust one that clicks loudly, and on the white underside part it should have...
Good times ahead! :2thumbs:
I can't believe it's been 10 years! It seems like yesterday when we last saw you. Hope you'll be able to come.
Masks are coming up with me and will be used.
I'll be there! Getting the second shot in a couple weeks and itching to get back on the road.
From what I've read about the rally, there are no scheduled group rides, they provide routes y'all...
SE5 is the designation for semi-automatic shifting, SM5 is manual clutch shifting.
I've ridden by myself since the early '90s. What have I learned about myself?
I get lost easy and don't mind it. I end up going down neat roads, have interesting experiences and end up in the...
Very grateful the car behind you stopped too! :yikes:
Nothing to do to the ECM. Take the cat out, let the engine idle for around ten minutes to let the RTL computer reprogram.
Looking forward to seeing y'all again! :yes:
I'm heading out Monday....

What a sad turn of events..... Bob, you have been the humor when threads got heavy, you are truly a happy heart. I'm so glad I got to meet you at Spyderfest..... Just grateful SpyderLovers is...
I still have my '09. The main problem I found was the original "y" gaskets burned up before 20k and gave you a very hot right leg.
It's an easy fix. Replace both right and left gaskets with...
Congratulations Lamont! :clap::clap::clap:
Looking forward to meeting up with old friends and making new ones! :clap:
Our thoughts and prayers go out to you both....
The first Spyder to flip over that I know, via SpyderLovers, was a GS. He went into a corner that had an oil spill on it. The Spyder slid sideways through the oil, hit clean pavement and flipped. ...
I'm a Yank that lived in Brissie for two years. There are a few words that you should never say in polite society.

Bob Dylan is a gifted poet/songwriter, but I can only understand half of what he's saying.
I'm glad his songs live on.....

Gas station
We have a pond with ducks behind our house. Sounds like a female duck nesting. She will get up and forage when she thinks it's safe. Most domestic male ducks don't hang around after the deed is...
I'm on FB and SL. On FB, I keep up with my old SL friends I see maybe once a year or three. On SpyderLovers, I make new friends and help people when I can. I'm a chick, but know a thing or two...
The only time we saw lots of bears was on the ALCAN road. They hang out there waiting for road kill. On a Spyder or motorcycle, you do not want to slow down or stop for a look. They consider you...
It's paved all the way the the Arctic Circle and beyond. There's a gas station half-way between Fairbanks and the AC sign. No need for extra gas cans unless you go further.
Maybe that was your experience in a van. We would move to the side of the road and slow down and the semis would too. A little courtesy goes a long way.
While on the subject of trucks, there are...
Get the most recent Mile Post book. It will give you the most up-to-date condition of the road and many others.
Bring riding gear for all conditions. Once we got over the Brooks Range, the temps...
