    Re: I hosed my Windshield - need advice

    Thanks for the advice, I will think about that! You make a good point about the cost of whatever I do to try to fix it. Maybe I should just cut my losses since it kind of sucked anyway.

    I hosed my Windshield - need advice

    I must have got too close to that truck that sprays the white lines on the road and as I passed him, it oversprayed my nose cone and my windshield. I tried a bunch of things to get it off but GoofOff...

  4. Re: Looking to buy a BRP Backrest - Does anyone have one instock????

    I was browsing through Killboy.com's main page a few days ago and saw a Spyder with a Goldwing backrest and luggage box combo! For the rider it looked nice and comfy with the padded easy-chair...

    Re: Misfire from Hindle Exhaust....

    I noticed after installing mine that it now needs about 2-3 minutes to really warm up before riding it or it will ride rough. Even after that it really doesn't seem to like the cold (<50 degree f)...

    I had my dealer install my Hindle exhaust when my Spyder was in for it's 600 mile service day before yesterday and was pleasantly surprised when I picked it up last night! The exhaust sounds awesome!...

    I just checked and didn't see the link for any sound clips. Do you have a link for that?

    I heard the Hindle in person last weekend and it sounded very impressive! It's not too loud and has some...

  12. Re: Finally got to ride! Have a couple questions...

    Re: HID + Fog Lights Requires Special Harness

    Turns out I mis-understood the dealers price as it was $115.00, not $150. They also charged me $30 shipping so the total price was $145.00. This is unacceptable and those of us that did not have this...

    Re: Looks like it was 16 degrees off today

    Lamont,

    Having a temperature guage that is that far off is totally useless. The guage on my wife's Prius is dead-on based on my observations and it's extremely vital that I know that the...
