    Default New owner again

    Hello all, i have been looking at spyders for several months now. I purchased one several weeks ago, which turned out to be a lemon. Had to get police and lawyers involved, but im over that now . I just purchased a 2011 RS-S SE-5 with 184 miles on it. This spyder came from a well know dealer who sold the bike originally. Only mod on this bike is some nice bar risers. Looking forward to many happy miles

    Hi Keith,

    Re: Hello all,,

    Well, I'm not so sure about that all, but there are a few of us on here who have the 'older' Spyders, the GS/RS versions.

    Welcome to the group; it is a very good site with lots of folks with lots of info ready to answer any questions you might have.

    I guess there are a few "lemons" out there. My '09 RS was a great ride. check out my "bumblebee" on my website. 5" Helibar risers. Glad you decided to get back on the horse.
    ride in comfort,
    John
