It turns out my troubles were all from a loose battery cable. :gaah:

Thats great news!:clap:I can understand your frustration knowing it was based on a loose battery cable.

Have another rider in Williamsburg having issues. Will be calling him tomorrow to see what is going on.

We need to hook up soon with others to meet and burn some rubber.

We are going to meet on the right side of the Lincoln Memorial on Saturday. Not sure about the parade hearing it could be several ours before you would even get out of the Pentagon parking lot. Look forward to meeting you.:2thumbs:

The parade is on Sunday...I'm on the other side of the river (Maryland), but it'd be nice to have a bunch of Spyderlovers get together and make a showing...

Just my luck had issues all day riding with bandwagon. The big E running forward and seeing N and R flashing managed for some time to get into low gear to keep moving in traffic. :gaah: Then it progressively got harder to get into a lower gear hence stalling and restarting. Decided Sunday morning to take it back to Richmond and stay out of the parade and traffic in the area. If only my dealer would have responded to my request the first time this would not have been an issue. :lecturef_smilie: The part will be in this week of course! :banghead: Good meeting you Bandwagon. :2thumbs:

I managed to make it to rolling thunder got a spot right in front of the marshel's SUV. This was my first time riding in it and had a blast. Next year we need to get together. I think my spyder was a little lonely with all those HDs.

We missed you at Rolling Thunder, however we can get our roll on anything. I'm good for riding most evenings and weekends. Still trying to get with a couple other Spyder riders in the area. Let's set something up in Old Town. Bandwagon :chat:

Yeah, mine is in the shop too. Steering issues, DPS being replaced. I posted elsewheres on it. I am bummed out. I literally drove my car 1 time in 28 days and that was to pick my dog up.

I really, really hope to get it back this week and also have my Gerbing gear and robobrackets and shield delivered. I ordered the armored pants and heated gloves and insoles to go with it. All ready had a vest and love it. Getting ready for the cold!!
