My Spyder F3 broke down on the road today

Good to have towing on your insurance. It will pay for itself for years even if you only use it once.

Another insurance hint told to me by my lawyer. Buy as much underinsured/uninsured coverage you can buy. It's only about $40 a year for $250K! I had to sue my own insurance company to get the payout of 27K on my head-on with my gold Wing. Lawyer says "They would have just written a check for you if you had better coverage on that part." The very next day I called them and added a quarter million. Depends on your state though.

Wow, that looks like a serious crash. Glad you made it.

So your Spyder is fixed and you are back on the road and all is well? Since you stated that you change your own oil you do know that the engine oil and the transmission oil are the same but with different filters. Thank you for coming back and letting us know the outcome. We are happy to here that they got you fixed up.

Yes, all is well. I meant "anti-freeze change," not "transmission fluid change." I will look for the transmission filter on the F3. And yes I knew the transmission and engine oil are one in the same. I think the maintenance schedule calls for the trans filter to be changed every 28,000 miles. Thanks to this forum and providing me the knowledge of the front pulley problem, I had the information I needed to prevent the dealer from doing a lot of unnecessary stuff.
