Slide out safety card DIY?
OK, while I don't want to take away safety in any way shape or form, after reading it a few times, it seems like a waste of space and a nice slide out drawer for "SOMETHING".
Anyone come up with any ideas on what to use this for?
I was thinking a slide out cup holder but I see this would block visibility to the dash and partially the windshield.
There has got to be something we can convert this to and be more useful?
Ideas?

If you look above your digital dash at the edge of the fairing or "edge" above the dash there is a slide out safety card thingy.
I think all Spyders have it? My RT does.

I think I remember something about that when I bought my first spyder. At the first demo ride, they said, it had to be read every time or the spyder would not start, even if you stalled it. When I get time or think about it, I might go look and see if it is still there.
OP, I think somebody on here (LaMonster) has a decal to stick on saying "Do Not mess with my Spyder.

Hey the sun shield gives me an idea....
How about a pull out and tuck back in "sun cover" for the dash and seat?
Light mesh material that stretches and can be pulled over the seat but opens wide enough to cover the handlebars and dash?
Hmmmm.... I know there is not much space there but might work...

New sticker idea for it:
I have heard from a few guys now that they come out to the parking lot and some idiot is siting on their spider "feeling it out". That would tick me off honestly.
Sticker reads:
Do not get on my Spyder unless I say you can!
This system is monitored by a "Frunk Monkey" that will kick your ass!

I actually use mine for safety reasons
Lamont told me at Daytona 2012 that I should put a "Don't mess with my Spyder" decal on it and pull it out every time I walked away from it.
So far it has probably save a dozen people's lives!!!!

If you read a few posts up, it appears Lamonster (owner of this site) has them.
Maybe PM him?

BRP put the safety card on the slideout so they wouldn't have to put the safety stickers on the tank as other brands must per government regulations. Having to push the mode button is a reminder of the info on the safety card before you ride. I like the idea.
