Well I picked up my 2014 1330 RTS today from East TN ATV. When I pulled up on my ST I saw my Bro Stan that just happened to be there and a few minutes later Margaret pulled up on my old 2012 RTS (that I still love) and she just happened to stop by. So after I turned in the ST and swapped plates decided to take a run to Shady Valley and grab a bite to eat. I got to tell you I love this bike and it's good to be back on a RT again. Can't wait to make it my own and put some major miles on it. This one will be a keeper for sure. :doorag:

Back in Black. This is as stock as you'll ever see it.

My old RT that I wish I still had. It was the best Spyder of the bunch.

Looking good. I'm sure you can't wait to start changing it just a little.

Wish we could be down to Shady Valley taking a ride right now. Incredibly great riding roads right there.

Have fun with the new Black RT. Black is Best.............

The plan is to have most of it done by Spyderfest along with having Lamonster Garage open. I'm heading that way at the end of this week then riding the RTS to Daytona with Spyderpops and ride back to Springfield and get going on the RT and the shop at the same time. Chances are there won't be much sleep the next few months. :shocked:

This was not a farkle but I did align the Spyder last night. Today I'll be adding a Lamonster Swaybar made for us by BajaRon and a set of NBV's highway brackets. Then I'll be packing the trailer with the stuff I'll need for the shop along with my RT and trailer.

When I get back from Daytona I'll strip the bike and have Nathan Curry start on an over the top paint job. I've used and seen a lot of painters through the years of building custom bikes but this guy is one of the best I've seen. Love his work but you have to come to Spyderfest to see it in person. :doorag:

Hi Lamont:

Look forward to seeing you, the new spyder and Harvey at Bike Week in Daytona. The Daytona 500 is usually the "sounding note" that bike week is just around the corner.

Have a safe trip down.

Lamont, I plan on being at SpyderFest and look forward to seeing your customized Spyder and all the Spyders. That's one of the coolest things is seeing how people have made their Spyders unique!!

Good luck with the new RT-S
Hopefully if time permits you may be able to post Videos of the Mods as you do some of them
I have gained alot of information from your past Videos and I am sure there may be some changes from the Prevous RT Models which new owners of the 2014 Models may not yet be aware of

You are one busy man - Best wishes from the UK Branch of Spyder Owners

I have the small vented shield and I really like it. I will have some of the work done for Daytona but the real work starts when I get back. Going all out on a custom paint job. :doorag:
