Did you keep your bike stock ??
Not including adding minor mods like cup holders or phone holders, did you keep your bike the same as it rolled out of the factory ??

At last count I made or added 80 mods/changes to my 14 RT. Too numerous to list.... I'd be here all night! ... Almost all were DIY.... including re-designing & creating new suspension parts..... Mike

Nope for me also. I like the led's and the visability that they give me. Also, the work that MountainMan Art did for me is outstanding!

I normally add comfort items such as driver or passenger backrest. I did finally bite the bullet and added a swaybar to my 2016 f3T and a pedal commander. The pedal commander is definitely going on my new RT, but I will wait on the upgraded swaybar. I rode with stock sway bars on my bikes for so long, that it is now low on list of mods. The stock suspension is really pretty good, and is way more than most riders can push to the limits anyway.

Most of my changes have been made for convenience or for handling purposes. Car tires, sway bar, and shock stiffeners for the handling. Wiring and plugs for our heated jackets, a 7JUrock windshield, and a cup holder for the passenger. The only performance modification has been the addition of a Pedal Box.

2021 Spyder RTL
Stock except for:
Heli-Bars
Added foam grips
Added Utopia driver's backrest
Added BRP upper and lower wind deflectors
Added the handlebar end caps from Pierre in Canada - red - makes a quick eye-catcher to go with the Marsala and Black
Added the big finger-grip thingy on the key from Pierre - with the spyder icon on it
Added battery tender pigtail
Added battery pigtail for heated jacket liner
So far, am happy with the smooth ride and handling. If I keep it I might put some clear 3M protection on in various places.

You'd be surprised just how many Spyder/Ryker owners keep their bike stock.
I'm also a member of the Spyderlovers FB page, and there are A LOT who refuse to mod their bike, for whatever reason.
Trust me, I don't get it either ....

Oh H%ll NO...........
Far too much to list but the ECM flash, new tires, and the stiffer anti-sway bar sure brings the enjoyment to another level.

I believe that those who keep their bike stock think that they can have a higher resale value if they leave their bike "unmolested".
While that may be true, I still don't get it, LOL.
