Thanks for everything! If you guys buy your Spyders and take a few months at the expense of our tax dollars then at least we will know it was well spent, enjoy your time together!
States We Have Been To On Our Spyder
My mods: Green filter, Air box mod., Muzzy exhaust, Cat Bypass, Exhaust Heat Wraped, Powder coated all Bare Metal surfaces, Capt. Jim`s Belt Tensioner, Custom Built Highway Pegs, Elka front shocks, RS-S rear shock, 2011 smaller windshield, Dynojet PowercommanderV & Autotune, NGK iridiom DCPR9IEX spark plugs, Maxxis MA-Z4S Victra rear tire, General Altimax HP 185/60R14 front tires, Corbin seat & backrest, BRP hitch. I need to stop!
I think all I have to add is some highway pegs(he has long legs)....a belt tensioner...and maybe get the seat cut down some....then he can add any farkles he wants...already have to Hindle and risers on it...sounds GREAT!...maybe some more lighting would be good too....didn't get a lot of sleep last night...thinking about him coming home....this will be a lot different from when I came home the first time....PGR, ALR, and a whole lot of people will be there...gonna turn the airport into a great big party...just wish his Mom could have been here to see her son come home...happy and sad day for me, him too...but believe you me, we will make the best of it.
I can be your best friend or your worst enemy...you chose, but chose wisely.

SAVE THE CHUPACABRA
If you have not been to Luckenbach, your journey is not complete.
As a Patriot Guard member I know firsthand how much it means for us and the service member to have a flag line and procession of bikes leading one of our heros home. Please do contact PG for this. Wish I could be with you. WELCOME HOME THANK YOU FOR MY FREEDOM
We all have an end to journey toward
however
what will matter most
in the end
was the journey
+1 Bro!! Congrats to your son for coming home, sacrificing his time and his life for all of us to enjoy this wonderful freedom! I am sure he will LOVE his new Spyder RS!!

He just called from Dover AFB. He escorted a few fallen soldiers home this trip. Said he could delay coming home for a few days to make sure this soldiers made it to their home towns with respect and dignity. God I love my boy!...I am a blessed man!...sitting here crying like a big ol baby...beaming with pride...what did I do right to have such a great son>?...Got some news from him that I didn't take to well. Guess he isn't going to retire after all. He's going to stay til he reaches 30 yrs...but he will be home town for the first year then off to Japan for a few yrs...But I get it....looking out for his guys.....well at least he will be where I can go see him....thank you all for your thoughts and prayers....he is looking forward to our first trip together this spring....maybe we will stop n and visit with a bunch of you.. I know he really wants to meet Lamont for some reason....

Rafifi2cu has been kind enough to give me some RT shocks...gonna be nice!...My son is 6'6"...285....a freakin mountain of a man. He's serving with my old outfit, the 101st...screaming eagles baby....He won't have to go back...he's going to retire this trip...I can't wait!...then it will be 2 of us drawing your tax dollars.......This spring, we are going to go get my new spyder for me so we can travel for a few months together, getting to know each other again....can't wait!....so if you see a couple old Army dogs, come say hi...just don't walk up from behind...might be a surprise......thank you all who have helped make this possible. If anyone has anything they want to hang on the bike before he gets home,,,you are more than welcome.....

It would be an honor to meet you and your son. My son Nathan comes home from Afghanistan at the end of January and all three boys will be home for the first time in over two years in February.
