Thanks From A New Spyder Owner
Well all:
I ve been waiting a long time to write this post.
At a classic car cruise night where I usually show up with my old ride last june I saw my first spyder! Wow! May be love at first Bite or Byte.
This is from a guy whose last two wheel excursion was on a Schwinn. Way back in the day there was a new 68 Bonneville but that was many moons ago. Anyway from that day on I sort of became very driven ..no pun intended to get one. First came the trial by fire at the local DMV office, written test and then followed up by a MSF 3 day course for newbie s like me!

Then there was the motorcycle endorsement and then soon after a open street ride with the BRP factory guys who were great. All thru this I ve been logging on almost religiously (Daily) to absorb all i could from you folks.
It s strange but although I have not posted that much but have become a sponge soaking all of your varied expertise up I finally took the plunge and wanted to share it with all of you..:yes::yes::yes::yes:
I just took delivery of a :

2009 Red SE5, with 12v. Hindle, Fogs, and the BRP backrest/rear carrier as well as the three yr BEST warrenty.

I put just 2 hrs on it before I was forced to store due to the 15 degree temperatures and heavy snow but i do visit it every day, get on it and make motorcycle sounds.

That will have to do for now, but I would like to thank u all and especially Scotty and Lamonster for giving me the info to get my dream .

:2thumbs: Thank You All.

:congrats: You know you picked the best color! Take the down time to install the accessories you want. Thats what I'm trying to do. Too cold here too. Enjoy your new Spyder!

[NancysToy]

Congratulations! When my wife first saw the Spyder and expressed an interest, I poured over the forums and Web pages, too, to try to learn about them. It all convinced me that it would be a good ride. I'll tell you right now, I seriously underestimated it. It's a great ride! Welcome to the world of Spyder owners, and be patient, the weather will change...Al Gore says it's going to warm up. :D

So what's your old ride, Northramp? I have a mild custom '53 F-100 and my wife has a '63 Falcon ragtop. We do the classic car cruises almost every week in season, but I usually ride a vintage bike. My wife has taken her Spyder mostly this year.

Scotty:

There are two polar opposites in my rides:

1967 Shelby GT350 Factory Paxton AKA:The Other Woman

1973 Land Rover Series III RHD AKA: Grommet


Sounds like u r a blue oval head too:2thumbs:

Have not named the spyder yet .
