    Default My wife got me a Spyder for my birthday!!!!

    Chocolate!!!!

    (Oddly enough, we were at the dealer's today dropping off my bike (a 2014 RT-S) for some work. She looked at a new 2018 RT and asked, "Does this have anything new you want?" Then she asked the salesman standing there, "How much is my husband's bike worth on a trade-in?" He allowed as he didn't know offhand. I told her I'm happy with my current bike -- I've got it farkled and upgraded the way I want it.)

    Happy Birthday: The gesture for a new Spyder was nice, but I'm with you on keeping the 2014 that's already paid for and FARKLED.

    Happy birthday. My feeling is "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". I love my 2014 RT and have no plans to replace it for a new dashboard.
    Ride in comfort,

    Give her another big hug, then lean back and ask, "couldn't they make the Spyder yellow?" Then duck and run.......
