    Thank you.
    I have tried calling him today numerous times but always got a busy signal. He is a very busy guy. I will keep trying.

    Flipit - let me know what and where you find. Am in the RGV. Would like to disable ours BEFORE there’s a problem.

    You may have better luck sending him an email. I know that he and his wife were very busy Friday and Saturday working at our annual riding club fund raiser that benefits the Montgomery County (TX) Meals on Wheels program and then shop customers yesterday.

    Thank y'all for all the leads.
    BCNewell, thornolis is in Houston and he does the DESS delete. I talked to his wife Louise Thorne today and she was very helpful. I have an appt for April 16. You can find their info @ www.thornolis.com
    They only do weekends since James and Louise also have full time jobs.

    Gotcha. Thx. They’re about 6 hours away. Coyote in Boerne is about 4-1/2 hours. Gotta contact one or the other and schedule a laser alignment and kill the DESS. Thx for the info.

    BCNewell, will Coyote in Boerne do a DESS delete?
    I was told they would not do it. It had something to do with BRP policy. I had stopped in to meet Rocky, he is a very knowledgeable guy.

    Matter of fact - just talked with Rocky yesterday, asking about alignments. Said they do the alignments (he does them all himself), but would be about $300 to do just a single Spyder, due to amount of time needed to set everything up. I didn’t even ask about killing DESS, as I knew they were a BRP dealer. Will have to wait on alignment until I start seeing / feeling a problem, and if I am ever in the north Houston area on a weekend, will see if the Thornes can work me in for a DESS delete.

    That Dealer does NOT have the " Lazer " system ..... I think you should find an independent, last I looked it was less than $150...... good luck .... Mike
