    I'm putting in some break in mileage on my new Spyder.
    Here's a video I put together.

    Don't pay any attention to the speedometer. I think it reads 15 mph too high


    If it ain't broke, don't break it.

    That's a huge difference in MPH. Did you compare BRP MPH to the GPS MPH to get that difference. If the speedometer is off that much I would bring it back to the dealer for service.

    Sorry, I was attempting to be humorous. Have I failed ??

    What I meant, specifically is, in the video when I pass by a speed limit sign that says 30 mph, don't pay any attention to the speedometer reading 45 mph.

    "But officer, I'm not REALLY going that fast, my speedometer must be wrong"

    I had the dealer install them even before I picked up the bike.
    I think the HeliBars are FABULOUS.

    Just my opinion. I don't own stock in the company

    Nice ride with pretty scenery. Especially the rapids. The plan is to come out to Mystic the end of July for the Denison party at the Homestead. If everything works out we'll drive out with the Spyder in it's enclosed trailer and then after the reunion we'll tour around the east coast for a while.
