I just installed F1's 777 windscreen. Thought many might like to see what it looks like. It pretty much eliminates all slip stream wind blast.

John and Barb,

The Niagara Falls meet was fun. We enjoyed meeting so many enthusiasts. I wish I had the stamina to make a trip like you did from East Coast.
It was my bad that we had to leave so early.
Did you have a better experience getting back to the USA?

Ha.

Here was my post the night we got home (http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showpost.php?p=91032&postcount=346). Hope they have a better Banner ride today in Hell!

Glad you like you windshield Father Leo, I have acquired Brian's F1 Slider it would seem. He is thinking of getting something different so I thought, what the heck, I'll try his. I really like his slider. I liked the EVO III but this is even better.

[frleo]

I like the slider also and plan to keep it and change them as conditions warrant. I now own 4 windshields, can't seem to part with any of them. Is that a sickness? :lecturef_smilie:

On Saturday, we delivered the spYder to our dealer for some service and custom work.
I'm having spYder withdrawl. The barn just doesn't look right without the spyder in there. I hope it comes home next week.
Details and pictures to follow.

[dltang]

What kind of custom work father? We want hints.

[frleo]

Deb, you may recall that I have a problem with my right leg and foot that makes it difficult for me to actuate the foot brake. The service tech has come up with a couple of mods that we hope will solve the issue.
When finished, I'll describe the changes and post pictures.

That is great! I can't wait to see your photos and what he comes up with for you. Hang on in the meantime, spyder withdrawl can be tough to deal with.

I can learn to hate you john :joke:

We brought home our spyder this afternoon, serviced and ready for a summer of ryding.
I now have a beautifully installed hydraulic hand brake on the right bar. After a ryde several times around the dealership parking lot, this solves the problem of right bum leg/foot. Depressing the hand brake lowers the foot brake pedal and that allows me to apply brakes with both hand and foot. Lots of braking power.
I didn't get any pix today, but will soon.

Patience, patience, John. Or aren't patients in your manual? :opps:

[frleo]

OK, these pix won't satisfy you techies, but I wasn't there for the part where the panels were all off. But here's what I see. There is the master cylinder and lever, there is a slave cylinder and rYder's overview. I am now rYding with more confidence and safety.

Hey Leo,
I recognize that style barn in the third photo. Don't let the horses run over your spyder. I spent many long hours in those style barns.

[frleo]

That is our indoor riding arena. However, these days it is more a place to park tools and toys. We have 4 horses, but our riders have all moved away. Right now, the 4 horses are way up on the mountain pasture. They look really nice up there.:chat:
