    Doc!

    I can't wait to start hearing about your overall impressions of the unit, and to see what your new testing speeds are as well.
    Very Happy Spyder Ryder!

    Use caution when doing long runs, read plugs, maybe look into EGT gauges, some motors don't like much boost for long periods. We may be fine, you'll be a fine test for this.

    The Aerocharger folks have everything pretty well covered.... they did a really nice job on this kit... and the boost isn't enough to do damage.... this rotax can take plenty of beating.

    I was really torn on getting one of these (they sold all of the first batch, but have 1 or 2 that people backed out of).... but $5K is a chunk of change. Not saying they're overpriced-- just that it's a lot for me for the benefit of the extra boost.

    ... I knew they were finally shipping an can't wait to see it in person in Chicago!

    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!

    I think it's a great mod...but it's not worth it to me to add this to my bike...I'm happy with the performance of it already. That $5000 has to go to other things, like baby's education fund!

    So has anyone actually figured out what the final HP numbers are? The kit was in dyno testing months ago.

    Spyder still in the OR: removing unnecessary parts (O2 modifier, JB and race airflow), move/relocate cables for Varad Vision lights and McCruise control.

    You have a McCruise? I'm more excited about that than the aerocharger!!

    Looking forward to your report on everything though...you do have the ultimate performance mod!

    Cant wait until you give us the test ride results. You know the overall HP numbers means absolutely NOTHING!!! Its just a BSD thing to say my has more HP or is faster than your . Doc, just let us know if the seat of your pants acceleration, increased top speed and the increased fun factor was worth the $$$$!!! That is what counts!
