    Default The Dark Side Some Guy has gone to...

    A new 2012 RT-S Limited he bought.

    Kept the 2008 GS he did. A disturbance in the force there is...

    Number One: 2008 Yellow GS SM5. I love my Spyder.
    Number Two: 2012 RT-S Limited (the poop colored RT) I still have Number One, but Some Girl made me buy Number Two...

    In my own defense, I actually tried to catch it by the neck while it was running along the side of the Spyder, but it took flight just before I could grab its neck. I'm amazed I didn't hit it with the windshield...it just missed.

    WHAT???!!! She doesn't want to pilot, she wanted a more comfortable perch. The GS is going back to a street-pounder...loud exhaust, no cruiser stuff, etc...

    The RT will only be used when she's with me (after I get the first service done, trying to put miles on now before the owners event).

    Number One: 2008 Yellow GS SM5. I love my Spyder.

    Obviously Some Girl means a lot to you and has the power to corrupt you as well. That is why Jedi Knights are supposed to shun emotion.

    on the more comfortable co-pilot seating for Some Girl!
    Very Happy Spyder Ryder!

    Ouch! Hope everything is mending...

    A disturbance in the force there is. Some Girl is worth it though.

    If you're keeping the GS, does that mean you're only half way to the dark side? May we say the light grey side??
