    Default Thinking about new farkles

    Have been thinking about adding some new farkles to my Can-Am Spyder RT-S SE6. Already added the Lamonster NBV Brackets with Trident Pegs so I can stretch out while riding. However, been thinking about either getting a Can-Am Heated Comfort Seat w/ drivers backrest, a third party heated seat w/ backrest, or an ISCI Hand Brake System. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.

    Default Depends....

    Two main areas.. safety and comfort. If you would feel safer with the hand brake go with that. But if you just need to get used to the foot brake only get the seat....

    with safety and comfort... and would add performance and protection to the list. If you haven't already done so I would consider the Baja Ron swaybar, Spyderpops bumpskid and then the heated seat you mentioned. JMHO

    Throw another vote on the "Safety & Comfort" pile from me.

    In the grand scheme of things: nothing else matters as much!

    Also a painted dashboard!

    Default Made my decision

    Thank you all for your suggestions. I made my decision by chance.

    Well, I made my decision today while out and about with my best friend and his fiance. We were out by Rockford, MN and we decided to stop by Moon Motorsport in Monticello, MN. When we got there, the place was extremely busy because of the River Run event. They also had 20% off all accessories including ones for Can-Am Spyders. So, I decided to ordered the Cam-Am Heated Comfort Seat w/ Drivers Backrest and saved about $300. The new farkles should be delivered in 3 to 5 days.

    While at Moon Motorsports, Hannah and Eric looked at a new Black 2016 Can-Am Spyder RS SM5. Granted my best friend already has a Harley Street Glide, but his fiance has been looking at getting her own motorcycle. They filled out the finance paperwork and will find out on Tuesday if they got approved. I hope they get approved.
