    Default Is there a Market out there for used RS parts?

    I am sad to announce that PE #1032 will be sent to auction in a few months. The bike is in the shop for another 6 weeks and will be returned to us... to strip off the extra BRP stuff we added on the bike. And there is a lot of stuff. For those of you who have traded and sold parts; what would be the best forum? Here at Spyderlovers? Ebay? or Craigslist?
    Thanks for the input!

    Sorry to hear you're getting rid of your Spyder. I would list the items in the for sale area here first and see what happens.

    Good luck....

    Spyder #1 - 2008 GS SM5 Premier Edition #1977. RIP after 80,000 miles.
    Spyder #2 - 2012 RT SM5. Traded in after 24,000 miles.
    Spyder #3 - 2015 F3 SM6. Put 13,000 miles on and sold it.
    Spyder #4 - 2017 F3 SM6. Too good of a deal to pass up!

    Sorry to hear about this bad news. What is it in the shop for this time around, may I ask? Is that why you are getting rid of it, too much down time for repairs?

    Please post them here first. I am sure many of the members would be happy to take some of the items off your hands.

    Sorry to hear it needs to go to the auction as well.
    Very Happy Spyder Ryder!

    I am not a ranter and do not want to fuel any fires by hanging out my dirty laundry. Send me an email with your phone # and I will call. The bike was in the shop almost 9 months of 2009. It as been in the shop for about 8 weeks of 2010. I have been working with BRP and the dealership for a resolution. The dealership has been very supportive, even loaned me a Spyder for last years' Homecoming event. I have given up the fight for the bike's survival. I am very sad, as I loved my Yellow Spyder. But, I must move on...
    I still believe in the Spyder product, in BRP and I just want to get another Spyder.
