    welcome

    Woo hoo!!! Another Norwegian on SpyderLovers.

    Well, maybe I shouldn't consider myself Norwegian but my great, great, great grandparents came from Norway. Though I have Norwegian heritage, I'm hopelessly American.

    No Regrets. Just wish I was able to ride at this time will be glad when I get the okay from the doc. Surgery after buying the spyder has been the pits.

Spyder stands alone with not one degree of drop in passion for this 3 wheeler which I ride pretty much daily.

    I believe you may be thinking of the GP engine that Aprilia is working on. Aprilia quit using Rotax and is starting to develop their own.

    Ha ha. Very funny that you know you have norway blood in you. One of my best friends is from Montana. Americans arent all bad.

    Never any doubt!!!

    Best toy I ever owned. If I ever have a pain it is not having another 15k to do all the mods I want to do.
    Hang on!

    Exhilarating is the word that most often comes to mind while riding!

    Love. this. machine!

    I can keep up with the speed of the others I ride with, it's comfortable, easy to ride, stable, carries all my stuff, including my dog and looks soooo flipping cool!

    My hubby keeps trying to convince me this can be an off road vehicle- I know it can handle the average gravel road no problem, I just don't wanna get any scratches on my purdee toy!

    Buyers remorse? Look on Ebay and Cycle trader. A bunch for sale, most with less than 1k miles.

    Default Spyder Remorse? Is there such a thing?

    I have had mine for two months. Bought the first one in North Carolina!! I have been on 3 Poker runs, 1 charity Ride, a trip from Charlestown, SC to Savanah, Ga and Deals Gap. Every day I cant wait to get home to ride

    I bought a Harley Softail a year ago and it has 235 miles on it. I got my Spyder a month ago and turned over 1,000 miles today. I'm LOVIN' it!

    You've got a great pair in your garage! When my Spyder (#445) arrived last Dec I had also a Triumph Sprint 955 and I pretty much stopped riding it. So a few weeks ago I sold it and replaced it with a slightly used Buell XB12R - wow is that one fun to ride.

    So now my Spyder has about 6000 miles on it - riding it about 3 - 4 times as much as the Buell. This week leaving for a ride from Pittsburgh out to MN, and up to Duluth for the Aerostich Very Boring Rally. On the Spyder!
