Thanks all. When you see that bridge, or look up info on it, it was quite an engineering feat to be able to pull it off.

Right on LVSpyder! You guys will love it. The main reason we got ours is when I had my Suzuki Hayabusa, we were always having to find a babysitter for our 8 year old daughter. Now, we can take her...
Thanks akspyderman. Yes, I am using a Go Pro 3 Black edition filmed at 1080/30 frames per second. I have the helmet side mount and I don't even notice it's there. On the other side is a Chatterbox...
Wife and I went out on our 2013 Spyder RSS's (SE5) through the Valley of Fire. I thought I would share the footage:

Hi All,
Went down to dealer today to talk about getting a second spyder for the wifey. While we were there, we started to discuss the Akrapovic exhaust. I told him I loved the looks of it, very...
Have you ridden a 2013 RSS yet? I wonder how the Elks compares to the newer suspension?
I guess coming from a sportbike background, it is important to know what is going on with the front end at all times. Stiffer on the shocks and a little higher pressure seemed to be the sweet spot. ...
LOL! Yeah, easier to cover the license plate with a rag than trying to edit it out in the video afterwards.
Hey All,
I finally got the exhaust in at the dealership and it is installed! :yes:

If I were to go to another seat, just based on what I have read in the forums, it would be to the "Comfort Seat". You may want to ask you local Spyder shop if they have a regularly scheduled ride...
Coming from a background of a Kawasaki ZX-11, Honda CBR900RR and just recently a Suzuki Hayabusa, the seat is extremely comfortable! My wife who had a tailbone injury a long time ago could not ride...
Bob already replied to part of this. I am also 6'3" and weigh 225. I found the front end a tad mushy for me, which is why I asked them to go up 1 click on the front to make it more stiff. I almost...
For anyone who recently got a 2013 RSS and the front end feels like it is swaying all over the place. Take it back to the dealer, get a front-end alignment. I had them do this, stiffen up the...
Thanks! That cruise control works very well. Could have used it on the Busa as it vibrated my hands til they started to fall asleep. The Can Am however is amazingly smooth, fox racing suspension...
On the color display, 2nd icon from the left is audio. The dealer was explaining that if you wanted to add an ipod or whatever, this is what would control it. All the buttons on the left handle bar...
Thanks 3 wheeler :D
RSS - Fully adjustable Fox Racing Shocks.
cyclelover63 - I sold a 2008 Suzuki Hayabusa to get the Spyder. I am in law enforcement, so I really don't need to be going that fast anyways. Also, with an 8 year old daughter, my wife and I...
So, took the Spyder to the dealership and explained the uneasy feeling I was getting at speed. I thought it was me to begin with and that I just wasn't used to the front end with 2 wheels instead of...
Thanks Retired1, I am bringing it back to the shop tonight to get them to check it out completely.
Thanks Weapon. I will do that. While it is in there, I will have them adjust the fox racing shocks too to stiffen up the ride (to 4-5). Even though they are new for 2013, I am sure they could...
Hi Faranh. Yes, the color is beautiful! Only difference is the entire bike is a satin finish, not gloss. Hopefully this means it is easier to maintain too. Time will tell.
Hi Chris. It's a RSS. Fox racing shocks - fully adjustable. Thinking about stiffening them up to 5 and putting tires at 20 psi. I read somewhere this helps the front stability substantially. The...
Thanks all for the kind words. :D
Hi All. New to the forums but have been watching for quite a while. As of Friday, 1/25/13, the dealership called and said my special order 2013 Spyder RSS was in and ready for pickup. :2thumbs: I...
