I like my spyder. I feel safer on it than a two-wheeler and I've modded it up nicely. It's MY bike now. I get 30 to 34 mpg consistently, city or highway riding. Read through these forums for a bit and you can get a ton of info on the Spyder. You may even be assimilated into being a Spyder owner. http://smileys.on-my-web.com/repository/TV_and_Movies/robot-assimilation.gif

No cons as far as I'm concerned - you wanna go fast? This thing goes fast! You wanna do burns, this thing does burns. You wanna take corners, this thing can take corners. It's not 2 wheels though so no lean factor. Right now (mine is pretty new) I am getting around 30 miles per gallon.

welcome Want my opinion - Spyder is the greatest ryde around. Speed, cornering, ease of use and of course no one tops the looks.
Performance and style what more could one ask of a machine. :clap::clap::clap::2thumbs::yes::yes::yes:. :firstplace:

Very different from your bikes. More active riding, with the need to steer and shift your weight, much like your ATV. You get used to it quickly. Very quick and responsive. We get about 30-32 mpg. I do worse, my wife does better. Dealers have demo units. Take a test ride.
