Hi! Dan Here. Traded my 950 Vstar with a Voyager conversion for a 2011 Spyder RT. Voyager was too hard to steer for an old man like me and rode too rough. Liking my Spyder and the ride is great - still getting used to the handling - rode 2 wheels for over 50 years so it's a big change. Did build 3 VW trikes back in the 70's but didn't handle like the Spyder does. Just takes time. Great forum here....
Congratulations and welcome, I too made the Y switch after 40+ years of 2 wheels, I love this thing.....:yes:
And Welcome to the Spyder world. This site will answer all your questions.

Welcome and congrats on your choice. We've both reached the age (or the leading edge of it at least) where three wheels is more comfortable and safer. We exchanged a pair of two wheel machines for a pair of new-to-us Spyders and are very pleased with the results. We ride more now than we have in several years and that's what it's all about. :)

Welcome and congrats. I'm not as experienced as most in the 2 wheel area but just got my Spyder a few weeks ago and so far I like it. I don't Love it yet as most seem to find out but I'll get there soon enough after a few comfy mods.

I made the switch from a 2004 V-Star 1100 a couple of weeks ago and two days later rode from Michigan to Massachusetts. It was an awesome ride!
