    Don't know, never tried, but at 18 MPG doubt anyone would want to.

    I bet the dude from Verizon would be proud……… DO YOU HEAR ME NOW? Then again, Steve might be saying that because he can’t tell if the spyder is on or off when he revs it compared to the old warhorse. Get it? very loud warhorse vs the spyder quietness. I liked my old pipes when I was young, but now I really like hearing nothing but wind and the radio and being able to talk with my wife. Don’t miss those days. Nothing against it, but just don’t miss it. Still a sweet ride though!

    When I got it it had open headers on it. The last time when I cranked it and it blew me out of the garage and landed me on my ass in the driveway (maybe stretching it a little there). Put 7 inch baffles in to stop that from happening again. Yeap Old Thunder is for sale.

    I wanted one of those but a little to pricey for me, very nice ride. There's only a little over a 100 of the Cheetah's in the states. Here's what mine sounds like. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vldRw-hX_qU
