Most people do take some time to get comfortable with a Spyder. i did not, but I was also a ATV Instructor with a lot of time on them. I got my first one at 72 after many, many many miles on two...

I believe the actual hitch is the same, but the wiring is different so they have different part numbers. Wiring is the big concern for a Spyder hitch

The "hidden truth" is revealed here
Try on in store, buy online.........then soon no more stores for anything. a few bucks more in store might result in a lot of nice talk when a problem comes up.
I know a lot will disagree with...
Smells a whole lot like a Elio to me. They are still promising on Face Book. Last I saw, production to start mid 2017
141960Hope you do not mind if I steal your "reason" for buy a new 2016. I thought mine was mid life crises at 81. 3 x 5 flag attached as part of Patriot Guard Mission. Funeral for WW II vet. Probably...
141959Hang around for 60 years of riding and get one of these, then the potato guys like you even when you ride and have a mid life crises at 81 and go buy nice 2016 Blue RT. Look for it at PGR...
Some will put on the end of the line for service. If you do not do business with a local dealer. they may not be around when you need them. I firml;y believe in having a nice friendly relationship...
"Fray edge" is a seam sealer, I get mine at Wal Mart, others probably would do. test a small place, then if okay soak the "trailing edge" and let dry.
A good quality flag will last a while, probably...
I ride unless snow, ice or salt on the roads. Have ridden at 9 degrees on PGR mission. Normally 20 or so is about it. Fun to ride on New years day watching lead sled drivers about break their necks...
I understand it has to be wired not blue tooth. You have to buy the cb unit and entertainment harness, but beyond that little information it is confusing to nothing
thanks for any help

On the fence, contemplating
A long time ago, I was told dress for the crash, not the ride. or as one lady said, I would rather sweat then bled.
Personal choice. Racing crashes proved safety gear for me works.

Second on taking a class if they can handle a two wheeler or even just for the knowledge of motorcycling, if they can not.
I see no problem with getting three wheel only endorsement if that is all...
It would be interesting to know how much time each rider had with the Spyder before this testing.
The whole testing is interesting thou. For years it was mostly Ford Crown Vics. Now who knows. It...
Glad you TWO are back. Hope things keep getting better.

The Stallion is horrible to drive. Getting and out has already been mentioned as hard. As I remember. you straddle a long seat, right foot works the gas, left foot the brake. Steering wheel. However...
Mad Russian, but sweet music, had a M-60 in VN. Two if we were in our M-37. Local L.EO.s might upset if we opened carried one of these here in the states

The rest of the story ?????
I did not need this. I just came from the doc's. Said I probably will need one. This is funny thou. Thanks for the laugh

I lost my manual, but I believe it said to tie the wheels down and let the Spyder use it own suspension. Works for me. Just watch the straps are not in contact with a valve stem.

Plus one for Retread.
I was at bike night and two guy were talking (loudly) about being real riders. One guy said, he could afford a Harley, but he still rode over a thousand miles.....last year....
If you can find a big parking, use cones to make curves, gets to much , just straighten the Spyder out

Thanks OJ. Yes these are the ones.
Nothing quite this on this side of the pond.
I tried doing amateur ones like this when I was stationed at RAF Upper Heyford. My commander changed my mind. We...
