    Just received a phone call from the dealer (excellent dealer BTW) in Chattanooga, Tn. yesterday that they have just finished assembling two 900's, come on down and take a look.

    Congrats to Texas.

    Looks like you are going to have decent weather up in your neck of the woods for the next 10 days. Impressions and ride reports along with some pictures are a must.

    Checked with my dealer yesterday. Said that no one is getting them until January, maybe February. He was talking specifically about the 900 Ralley (which I am getting). So maybe a bit more truth to it. When I told him that there are dealers selling them already he just gave me 'The Look'.

    I'm with the rest of the posters here. I'd love to see pictures.

    The dealer in Chattanooga, Tn told me yesterday that the Techs in the shop had just finished assembling two 900's, didn't say whether they were the Rally version. Did say that his accessory package was on the way however.

    OK so some dealers have them some don't - how many of us (Spyder Forum) have blindly ordered one, have only seen one invoice shown. When I went to my dealer they had one that looked like, as they said, a prototype because as others have said had mixed bag of parts standard wheels, tailpiece for pass. seat and back footpegs. If any of the major car manufacturers conducted business this way they would be out of business quickly. To say they invested in training classes for riders rather than going to the New York show is like saying learn how to ride one and "maybe" we will have some for you to buy someday. Something is wrong with their market or maybe it's a Canadian thing.

    All I can recommend is patience. When this whole thing started, I read an article in a Cycle Magazine, saw the picture, and wanted one. (Oct 2007).

    At that time, there was talk that BRP would not serve the whole 50 states, but would be selective about it. Dealer here was largest SkiDoo dealer in the country. He wanted Spyders, and he got them.

    Ours arrived in June of 2008. I got the first one sold to a customer. $500 deposit put down in Oct 2007, no test rides, no nothing. I got my third color choice (half moon silver) then it was a $500 upline option. I took it anyway.

    And the rest is history.

    There will be some good Ryker stories also.
