    Squared Away Laser Alignment. Possibly the best thing I ever did. Ann showed me one side was 2 1/2" out of alignment. Followed up later with Ron's sway bar.

    What's not to understand? It's the bean counter thing. Keep costs down and profits up and we all fall for it. I did, you did, we all did. The Spyder will never be one of the top 3 machines I've ever...

    It's the young up'starts and some ol'farts who want the newest techie stuff. I relish the wind in my face and the feeling of freedom when I ride. If it wasn't for the need of that dam 3rd wheel, I...

    I've had my side panels off and on I don't know how many times and I haven't had any issues with them. I spit on them to easily pop them back in and I've never had them break off or otherwise come...

    Sorry, I didn't even ask so I don't know. Whatever it will be I'm sure it will be the fairest available. I haven't made my decision on exactly which phone I'm getting yet so I haven't ordered the...

    When you first fire up your spyder watch the tach and just as the needle reaches its peak RPM, it will drop back just a little, then shift into first or reverse and you won't hear that clunk. You...

    Super Chocks were the best I'd ever seen but they are no longer manufactured or sold. So BK911's suggestion appears to currently be the best and safest way to go. However, 7'x12' enclosed seems to be...

    I have the Aluma with SuperClamp SpyderChocks, which are removable. It's the best setup since sliced bread because it is a multi-use trailer. This Aluma, as mentioned here, has the slide away ramp. A...

    You and I couldn't live any further apart if we tried but we think exactly alike. I have a mindset that if my ride goes fubar miles from home, I just turn it into another adventure.

    Yes! Never fuel up at a station while a tanker is filling the belowground tanks. And learn to run by the odometer and not the gas gauge. Some old school lessons are still applicable today. Always...
