For sale, My red 2012 RT-S SE-5 with just...
I would respectfully disagree that they all need to be checked. If there are no symptoms of a problem why spend the money? My Spyder has no pull/push, tracks straight as an arrow, no vibration, no...
Dealer did not do an alignment and it does track perfectly straight, no abnormal tire wear evident either. Aside from the poor mileage, especially when ridden hard I have been very happy with the...
I now have 2500 miles on my 2012 RT-S(bought it new in Nov 2014), the last 900 miles were hard ones in the mountains of Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. It took me a little while to adapt to the Y...
Thanks for the posts; we were kind of surprised that no one showed up for the ride Saturday but we went anyway and had a great time. I understand its a busy time of year for everybody. For those...
I think the swaying is from you being new to the machine and constantly making very small corrections, just relax and in time you will be more comfortable and things should settle down. I would...
The weather looks good for the ride this weekend. There were two rooms left at the hotel referenced earlier in this thread as of 4pm yesterday. See you at Leavenworth Safeway at 10 am Saturday!
Just a few more specifics on the ride:
Leave from the Leavenworth Safeway parking lot at 10 AM on Saturday June 13, 2015
The route outlined provides rivers, mountains, lakes, coulees, desert,...
[QUOTE=bluestratos;983674]Where will be meeting on Saturday Morning?[/QU
Lets meet in the Safeway parking lot on the east side of town, there is a gas station there for folks to fuel up and a place...
Earlier in the post is a proposed ride route, with an overnight at Grand Coulee. I don't have a solid number for participants; several folks have said they had it on their calendar or were working...
heading north together was what I had in mind, as your plans evolve lets think about doing that. I don't have a good idea how many really plan to show up so it might work out well
Hey gang, Did the Spokane group heading to Leavenworth want to figure out a way to combine our rides/routes for your mid June ride?
I also recently bought a 2012 RTS and have given the sway bar some thought after reading feedback from others. However, although I have started riding it pretty hard on occasion I am not convinced...
Just made my reservation for June 13, at this point there are still plenty of rooms at the hotel referenced earlier in this thread. Looking forward to seeing those who decide to make the trip. Nick
To all. Anyone interested in going on this ride as outlined in an earlier post (Leavenworth to Winthrop to Omak then Grand Coulee and working our way back to Leavenworth via Soap Lake, Warden,...
I recently posted a proposed route for a June 13/14 ride. Check the thread for details. This was sort of a response to folks interest in a Heart of Washington ride this year.
I have taken a look at options and have come up with the following tentative plan.
Meet in Leavenworth mid morning on June 13. Leave Leavenworth about 10 AM and ride to Winthrop (approx 130...
Early in May I will send out a potential route for the June ride. If anyone has a favorite road PM me and I will collect ideas and come up with a route.
Sounds good, look forward to meeting you and seeing who else will join us
June is a good month for riding. There are a lot of great places to ride in Central Washington. I am kind of partial to the roads along the Methow, the coulee areas, and some of the routes south of...
In general I think you are far better off taking the hit with the rear wheel. Any front end hit can foul up the alignment and would have a greater potential to disrupt your steering. The rear wheel...
Based on the responses and a conversation with Randy it sounds like there is enough interest for a ride so stay tuned.
I am new to the Spyder thing and not sure how formal an event folks are looking for, but we live in Leavenworth and would be willing to, at a minimum, take a group ride from here this summer. I have...
I bought mine from I90 in Issaquah, they had good pricing on a new 2012 RT-S with a 4 yr warranty. I think there is now a dealer in Moses Lake you might want to check out
I have full coverage with 1500 deducts for comp and collision and pay just over $300 (per year) with progressive.
Drove a Slingshot today at Owens in Yakima, WA.. very nice folks and they had a couple of the higher end ones in stock and ready to sell. I have watched videos and seen pictures but was still...
I have had several bikes with the 998 rotax in them, an Aprilia Futura, and 2 KTMs. In my opinion it is one of the best motorcycles engines made. It is reliable, lots of torque and plenty of high...
I believe there is a central Washington ride most summers, someone else will likely have details
Finally got some dry roads with temps above freezing to try out the new 2012 RT-S that got delivered to me in late November. Forum feedback from my previous post looking for suggestions on how to...
