Purchased this beauty on my way to work Monday. I’ve been doing my research for quite awhile. Really looking to logging many hours with my beautiful wife as soon as the weather gets nice here in Ohio. I’m a first time Spyder owner at 54 years old but it feels like Christmas morning. The trike is a 2011 RT Limited with 4076 original miles. Here are a few pics.

welcome to the crowd.

it was not that many months ago that we bought a spyder. We did all the research that we could. Bit the bullet and have never had one moment of doubt that we did the wrong thing.

Enjoy

Welcome aboard jabarger1. Nice machine for sure. My wife and I bought an identical unit in the fall of 2010. They had to be preordered way ahead of time just like they did with the 10th anniversary models. That is the first year of the LTD. They only came in pearl white. Do you happen to know what the production # is? Best of luck you will like it I’m sure.

Congratulations on joining our world of Spyder's. I saw my first Spyder in 2008, a GS SE5. No research necessary, it was heart stoping love at first sight. For a guy fast approaching 70, it was more than this old "gimp" could have dreamed of. Bought 2009 RS (GS) SE5 and have loved the Spyder concept ever since. I had a 2011RT SE5 and it was great also. The love affair continues with my 2014 RT SE5. No longer just a fun hobby, it has turned into a full time business.
Ride in comfort,
John
