New Spyder 2008 rider!

Hello Everyone,
Just purchased a 2008 Spyder after riding 2 wheels for 30+ years hope I did the right thing!
Glad to find this site!:D

Welcome! Yes you did... and it only feels weird the first time. ;)

:welcome: I felt the same way but love my Spyder better. Enjoy your ride and ride safe.

only 1 HUGE problem with rydyng a SPYD3R... you just may get sick of it when people keep flocking up to your ryde every time you pull into a gas station... they'll ask you all kind'sa questions, and take pictures, and ask if they can sit on it while their husband/wife/brother/sister/friend or stranger takes a picture of them on it.... :roflblack:

otherwise, WELCOME to the clutch... :thumbup:

From NH here too. Though, I see you are smart and probably go to Florida for the winter.

I'm on the coast near Portsmouth. Give me a PM if you want to go riding together this summer.

:welcome: and :congrats: on your new ryde. Welcome to the party. Send some pictures of your ryde.

Thanks! Yes, we are in Meredith, NH all spring and summer and head south to FL for 4-5 months, bought the 08 here just a week ago, lots to learn about a 3 wheel machine vs 2! Thanks for the invite to ride!:thumbup:

:welcome:Give it few hundred or so miles....you'll wonder why you waited so long to get your Spyder!

:welcome: you'll be riding like a pro before you know it!

Welcome from one new rider to another!

:welcome: It's probably easier for those of us that haven't been on 2 wheels to get used to the Spyder, but you'll get used to it in no time at all. Welcome to our group...have fun and be safe.

:congrats:on your spyder purchase and :welcome:to the spyder web. Dale

WELL, it happened, my first ride to the gas station and barely off the Spyder and a young guy comes up asking "WHAT IS THAT, who makes it etc etc?!! All I could think of was your response!!

Thanks for the heads up about this HUGE problem, ha ha!
