It's black.
Selling my 2016 Spyder RTL. Currently 9,043 miles, I'm the second owner. The pulley recall has been done, maintenance up to date. Has new rear tire, front tires are in great shape. Has all the RT...
Oldtimer: how do you like that windshield? It looks like it provides great coverage.
Perfect excuse to buy a Ryker Rally!
2016 was my 65th year and like you I said better do it now or I may never be able to do it. So I planned and executed a 7 week trip from Raleigh, NC to Alaska and back on my 2013 BMW R1200 GSA. Your...
My dealer put on a new rear tire (Ricken Raptor 215/60 R15...thanks Mike for suggestion) for $127.50 yesterday. 2016 RTL has 6722 miles and original rear was starting to go already. Fronts are fine,...
They are both beautiful, a couple things to know, if you don't already: Skyline Drive requires entry fee or NP pass ( I have the senior one that only expires when I do), there is only one exit...
Thanks for that link, mine came up for the recall, I'm a second owner so probably wouldn't have been notified.
Coincidence (or a case of great minds thinking alike), at 71 and too many 2 wheelers like your buddy, I have ended up with a 2016 RTL purchased used and a
new 2021 Himmie.
For the OP: Ditto...
I have a comfort seat on my 2016 RTL and had to remove the backrest when the wife rides, she didn't have enough room and she is not a big girl, about 5'4" and 132. I would not have kept the bike...
Tech at dealer in Durham, NC told me you bring the tires we'll put them on. Waiting to put a couple thousand more miles on the Kendas until I replace with car tires. Doing a trip to Maine this fall,...
I bought one of those low mileage used RTs (2016 RTL with 1300 miles) last July in perfect shape, got a great deal. Have put 4500 miles on it since, like many other newbees it took about 1000 miles...
I'm a newbe to the Spyder too. I just want to encourage you to give it some time and miles. Riding the interstate when I first got my RTL last summer I had similar concerns. I did get the Baja Ron...
I purchased my 2016 RTL last summer. It had 1300 miles on it and looked brand new. What with Covid and a super hot summer last year did not ride alot but managed to put 1700 miles on it by way of day...
Replaced the gas strut that holds the seat up on my 2016 RTL. Original strut couldn't hold seat up with driver backrest on it. Small thing, but now I don't have to prop the seat up with a stick while...
Put this on my 2016 RTL yesterday.186857
This is nowhere near that route but if you want to try coming back along the coast you might want to try a route that catches the Garden State Parkway on the southern end stay over in Cape May, take...
I have recently purchased a 2016 RTL that had 1317 miles on it. The PO had the following maintenance done: oil and filter at 846 miles on 05/17 and oil and filter at 1162 miles on 08/18. 3,000 mile...
I am new to three wheels also. Just acquired a 2016 RTL with 1370 miles, guess the original owner never got used to it. I'm 69 yo and primarily went to the Spyder to continue two up touring. The wife...
Did you purchase in Winston Salem, if so how did they treat you? I am planning on stopping there today on my way home to Raleigh, I have a seasonal home just outside Todd, NC.
I have been to Sports Durst many times over the years, I wasn't sure they were the place to go since I have rarely seen more than a couple of Spyders on the floor, seemed it was a stepchild brand for...
Thanks for the responses. Brewer is closer to me so I would like to get some feedback on them. But Winston is half way between my home in Raleigh Durham and seasonal home in Boone, so that would...
I am about to start looking/testing Spyders, would appreciate anyone's experience, positive or negative with dealers within 100 miles of the Raleigh-Durham area. Thanks
Any opinions out there by passengers about the comfort of the F3L seat?
That post was for RICZ, regarding the F3L.
How about passenger comfort, that's a big one for me. If I am riding solo I'm still on 2 wheeler.
That is exactly why I was attracted to the 2020, seems the seating is better and the styling is attractive as well. Updated lighting is another factor. Is that all worth 5K more? Which could go to...
I am looking to replace a 2 wheel touring bike (BMW K1600GTL) for 2up riding as I near 70 years old. The one who must be obeyed is not as confident in me on the big bike as she once was. I like some...
