    Default Hello from Indy

    Hey guys! Just signed up... love the site already! I just picked up a 2010 Pearl White RS-S, what a beautiful machine! To be brief, the wifey has always feared & forbidden motorcycles- then a couple on a Spyder pulled up beside us at a light. She said, "that's pretty cool"... I said, "would you ride on that?"..."yes"... BLAM! It's in the garage!!! I'm in the process of getting my license, can't wait to share stories and meet some of you. I'll be reading about suitable mods on this site...no doubt will have some dumb question!

    Welcome to our little corner of the World! There are no dumb questions; only dummies like me that don't know what they're talking about...
    Oh! Be careful or pretty soon your Missus will be getting her own license and you'll be building a bigger garage!

    That's the plan!!! I'm counting on her wanting her own- we'll be a two-Spyder family soon... That's the reason for the pearl white, SE5, and Corbin saddle bags... sneaky little spyder, I am

    Yepper! I used to live on Cordry/Sweetwater Lake west of Edinburgh next to Camp Atterbury- had Nineveh address... beautiful country and great roads, not to mention some killer bass fishing!

    Great to see more Indiana spyder lovers.
    Maybe we will run into each other on one those Indiana road trips.

    Enjoy!

    Located between Franklin, & Princesses Lakes area. Beautiful country down around Brown County, IN. Hope to get a Spyder RT Limited soon, still doing my home work. Glad to read some spyder riders in my area.

    Sweet set-up. If you want to keep the Misses happy I would get the Corbin trunk box with backrest and then maybe the ICSI armrest.
    Happy Owner
