    Red face got my first spyder

    I picked up my 2011 RTS spyder yesterday. I road it around in the neighdorhood to get use to it then made the 180 mile ride home. I would like to thank everyone at this site for the info you give out about riding, it made my ride home fun. the wind was blowing and was about 45deg out but I had no problems other then the cold. the lite grip advice was accurate thanks
