Spyder DPS Poll

[Firefly]

Hope this is okay Lamont--- please remove if it is not......

So how about we get some real numbers to look at?

Let's find out just who and how many have had DPS problems.

Let's keep this simple--- 3 questions, and 3 possible years.

The term 'DPS problems' pertains to steering issues (not vss).

The term 'Fixed' means the problem is no longer present.

[RoadHammer]

So what are the 3 questions ?

[Firefly]

Up and running now.....

Not fireflies, but I like it!

Nope-- not going to be needed if people take the time to fill this poll out...

Hey Roaddog, thought you sold your Spyder?

[musicarcade]

Well it might be needed still, you seemed to have left out the option.....

-had Spyder repaired, unsure that it is really fixed

....otherwise, you're just slanting the poll with the answers that you carefully chose........

Not very scientific at all, if all the options haven't been presented....

OK = just for grins lets state items 4 thru 6 are:
...HAD DPS problems and they ARE ASSUMED fixed

[Roaddog2]

Hey Roaddog, thought you sold your Spyder?

Yep with known problems and more on the way

[ThreeWheels]

Not voting. With only 2 weeks of ownership and not quite 600 miles. my answer would be of little value.
One thing though, I read a comment, I believe from Nancy's Toy about the RT and how it steers very quickly when changing lanes. That's something that I noticed as well, but I don't have an RS to compare it to.
Perhaps something is different on the RT steering? If the problems were caused by loose relays or fuses, that's something that has certainly been addressed on the RT. The fuse box is in a vault.

Um-- no.. actually I thought of putting that option - but adding it would actually slant things and not show as many UN-FIXED DPS units. Not to mention the POLL feature only allows 10 answers.

There's no way this is slanted to favor 'fixed' vs. 'not fixed'.

You don't consider yours fixed. Your answer should be clear as day and should HELP your cause.

[Firefly]

If BRP employees won't tell me it's fixed, I will not make that assumption......

Then it's NOT fixed.

Multiple choice shouldn't be this hard.

Don't like it - don't answer - but then you'll only be skewing the numbers and that doesn't help anyone.

Simply choose yours is NOT fixed and then add a note in here explaining your selection.

This is the internets--- it ain't gonna be perfectly scientific.

[Firefly]

Eh--- no big deal... some folks have strange fetishes out here on these internets--- to each his own....

[Firefly]

C'mon folks--- 150 views and only 23 votes???

If ya own a Spyder and have any decent amount of miles on it-- please take part in this POLL. I'm as curious as the next guy to get a good feel for just what kind of numbers we are looking at.

This is for everyone's benefit.

i never understood why so many reads and few answers. Im assuming it's mutliple views from the same users adding the numbers up too.

That's what I thought- probably the same 25 people veiwing this/replying 5 or six times...

I know 10 of the views are mine, checking to see if the numbers have increased any since the last time I checked. I am probably not the only one.

[RoadHammer]

me and mc'fly are probably responsible for 50+ views.

Ahh--- didn't know it RE-counted the same person viewing it multiple times.

Oh well... it is what it is....

No problem with that thought process at all. Poll text cannot be changed (for obvious reasons).

the results are probably tallied by Acorn..
