    Default Another new Spyder owner

    Awesome forum - have been "trolling" for about a month now. Avid 2-wheeler for years - wife enjoyed riding with me on a goldwing until her knees got replaced so I downsized to BMW. Love to ride....don't love going without her!

    So - we started looking at Spyders about a year ago and stumbled onto a good deal and couldn't resist! 2015 RT-L (white....is there any other color????) with a color matched Freedom trailer - with 1258 miles!!! Came with an extended warranty and looks brand new. Wife will be taking a course (had her MC certificate) in a couple of weeks and then "we" will get started. I need to buy her the t-shirt about "if you can read this the b(*&^ fell off!!"

    Anyway - thanks to all on the board - great info as usual - awesome sponsors - already ordered some magic magnets....and will begin the "farkle-thon" soon.

    PS - the Spyder is for her........though I'm sure I'll be driving when she lets me!

    I would like to see a photo of the WHITE Freedom Trailer (it has to be a custom paint job).

    You're right Joe. I didn't realize that when I was reading it. I'd like to see a picture too. Nicer than black, I'm sure.

    Again, more proof that the smartest Ryders are on Spyders.

    The fastest way for a man to get a Spyder is to buy one for his wife FIRST!
