Really didn't mean to scare anyone. Just venting I guess. The good thing is it's a 2011 RT with 47,000 miles on it. Other than a 600.00 drive belt 2 1/2 years ago I've been lucky that this is all I've spent other than regular maintenance, tires and normal things. Coming from riding 5 Honda gold wings and other bikes since I was around 10 years old. I'm very happy with my spyder RT. I'm hopeing to one day own a 1330.
