    I haven't heard but in my three weeks in Michigan the last week in August and the first two weeks in September, I only saw one spyder and that was on I-69 near Port Huron. I was surprised that I didn't see more. Only others I saw were at dealers in Big Rapids and Baldwin.

    I don't think they do. If I'm correct They're a privately held Co. So they don't have to.

    You are correct. They don't have stock holders and do not have to publish P&L, Balance sheets, etc.

    At the owners event last June in Maggie Valley they hinted that they had produced over 30,000 units just for the US. My guess that as of last year around 40,000 were made worldwide. This year my impression from talking to some dealers that I know that production has been increased since the amount of units promised to be delivered to the dealers has really gone up as well. This information is not anything official just snippets that I have heard.

    Don't know how many they've sold but before I bought mine they seemed to be everywhere but since then I see very few . Maybe they have a spell on them that once you buy one the others become invisible ?

    The more they build and sell the better off we all will be.

    That might have been me. I took off one day and decided to ride the freeway (I69) just to get up some speed. Riding 25-55 all the time is so boring. Seems my Spyder rides a lot smoother at faster speeds too. (-: There's another gal in the neighborhood with one now too. Are you the gentleman I met at the Meijer pharmacy a few weeks ago?

    It was a woman traveling west on I-69 about 25 miles west of Port Huron. We were on our way to London Canada. I thought that it was a dark colored one.

    No it wasn't me. I have been back in California since mid September.

    Last weekend at Cedar Key, Fl I saw total of eight. Back in June we rode over 2300 miles in New England and the mid atlantic and I only saw 3. Must be selling more in Florida.

    Guess it wasn't me then cause I didn't go that far. There's not many in this area yet though. If there is, they've spun a web and are hiding in it.

    Right you are!

    I rode from Toronto to the Canadian west coast, South to Oregon and back east to Maine & New Hamphire. I spent four weeks on the road and saw THREE Spyders. One RT and two RS'. The good thing is, at this rate I won't have to wait in line for my 2012 to arrive
