    Default Thank you Docdoru

    Thank you Doc for the white roses that you brought me for getting my new Pearl White RS SE5.




    And we had a good time at our Meet and Greet at JJ Fins today in Leesburg FL. We got to see alot of old friends and met a couple new ones. Carol from Lady lake FL. She was riding a yellow RS and it looked and sounded great. Then Hollywood (Rodger) from MD showed up unexpectedly. By the way Rodger we haven't received your PM yet. But glad you made it. This is why spyderlover is great you can meet up with people you don't even know and have a great time. Teacher and Doc can you please put you pics on this thread. Being I have my own ride now I'm slipping on my camera duties. but it was a hot day and my brain was fried. Ok we think there was about 19 riders there was 11 spyders, one two wheeler and 3 cages. Not bad for last minute get together.

    Forrest, did you trade the silver one in at Central Power sports already. They put you shocks on wrong. Better call Carlo. I never thought you would get a black one. Congratulations on the new Spyder. Was the 12K service due?

    Yikes !!!!

    Thats gonna be a rough ride...

    Those shocks need to be turned the right way in order to work right. It wont cause any damage to them but they are going to feel awful stiff.

    Yeah, and a DEALER installed them. Ouch
    I did my own install, first timer, and did not have this issue....scary.
    But there have been other posts related lately to the dealer that Doc posted that aren't too flattering.

    Well to the dealers defense, our engineering/ marketing department did not do a great job of adding in installation instructions when the shocks were developed, but most " competent" dealers should be able to figure it out. They cant all be like Len at Cowtown I guess...

    I just feel bad that she has to deal with a crappy ride until they are installed properly.

    I will be in Florida in July but hopefully it will be taken care of before then. If not, I will make sure it is.

    Looks and sounds like everyone had a great time. Great pics guys! For those that didn't know or don't know, The Black is in the shop at West Coast Power Sports with an engine oil leak. Susan and I spent the weekend at the beach but you know where we had hoped to be. We'll try again next time. BTW, Very nice Carol!
