Lets face it...
Nice video but they are different rydes...like comparing a slingshot to a spyder...and as stated above one is factory built the other is a custom build...

Very interesting and informative. The next time I ride on a steep slope, I will take Mr. Cognac. (I never needed to in the last 69 years of riding) The next time I wish to back up at 20mph for 150', I will take Mr. Cognac. (never needed to as I only need to back 30' out of my barn or 20' out a parking place) When I wish to go to El Paso on IH10 for the 550 miles and cruse at the 80mph speed limit, I will take my Motor Trike, Mr. Orange. The next time I wish to talk on my CB with my riding buddies, I will take Mr. Orange vs the sorry piece of crap CB on Mr. Cognac. The next time I need tires for Mr. Cognac I will buy car tires so they last a while. When I need tires for Mr. Orange I will buy..... oh, I already have car tires and get 45K on them..... just saying..... and the next time I need four bags for a trip, I will take my pickup.....with Mr. Cognac or Mr. Orange in the back.

What a ridiculous, biased 'pro-Spyder' video. Trying to put custom Spyder bags into a Honda Trike? Of course they'll fit better in the Spyder. I notice he also didn't get into the incredible reliability of the Goldwing engine and drivetrain.
Spyder #1 - 2008 GS SM5 Premier Edition #1977. RIP after 80,000 miles.
Spyder #2 - 2012 RT SM5. Traded in after 24,000 miles.
Spyder #3 - 2015 F3 SM6. Put 13,000 miles on and sold it.
Spyder #4 - 2017 F3 SM6. Too good of a deal to pass up!

Does Cowtown have a bad rep?
I ask because that is where I bought my Spyder, and it's who I would have service it due to location.

They do not have a bad rep. Spyderfest started there. Pittbull decided to open his own store in Springfield. The rest is history.
Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.
Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)
MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles
IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.
