New Guy

[3pod]

I just purchased a 2011 Spyder RT Limited and will take delivery in 7-10 days. Hate to leave my 07 Ultra Classic but realistically my confidence and ability on a 2 wheeler is diminishing ( will be 75 soon). Three wheels gives me new horizons more safely. Trying to learn the protacol for Spyders so signed up on this website. Do you wear chaps and vests? And where can I get new vest back patches to replace HD stuff? Any suggestions appreciated.:doorag:

:congrats: & :welcome:

You've found the :firstplace: spot on the Web for anything & everything SpYder Related. This forum & its members are 2nd to none:firstplace:

If you look at the Home page & Sponsers, I believe Cat Specialties will have the patches that you seek :thumbup: And (IMHO) you can pretty much wear what your comfortable with, keeping in mind safety of course.

:2thumbs:Again, Congrats on your purchase & we look forward to hearing about all your new horizons that you will get to discover:2thumbs:

:welcome: I know what you mean about worrying more and more about diminishing skills and physical ability. Still riding two, but I feel better on three. Wear whatever you like, you will see every combination known to man or woman in this group...except maybe a chicken suit. Patches should be available from CAT, one of the sponsors on the home page. The Spyder takes a little time for an old cylist to get used to, but you're gonna love the Ryde!

:welcome: you probably won't have your Spyder in time for the Owner's Event in Maggie Valley, NC but check here often to follow the fun. You will find that Spyder riders are a great bunch of people and we welcome you even with HD patches.

:welcome::congrats:. I know all about losing confidence in my 2 wheel abilities. The :spyder2:is the perfect answer for us "seasoned" riders.

Ride in comfort,

:welcome: You will love it. If attire bothers you do it in the buff. There is a SL that's professed to ryding sans the confines of her clothes. :p
Enjoy the rydes. They are priceless!

Welcome 3Pod. I don't know how much riding you have done so far on a Spyder but try to remember to hold on to the handlebars loosely. It is extremely sensitive. It will track where ever point it. Wear what ever is comfortable. Never heard any comments one way or another on what I was wearing except when I wear those chaps with nothing underneath.... :D :opps:

Welcome to Spyderlovers.com. It's the best it can get! Congrats on your new RT-S Limited. That whyte one is a classy ryde!! Your life will never be the same. People talk about you (or your ryde I should say) all over town. "Yeah but,,, did you see that whyte one go by"? "I wonder who that might be". What a thrill,, just like a rock star.
