Lamonster Laser Alignment coming to VA...maybe

[SpyRyd]

////////////UPDATE AS OF 11 DEC '13///////////

Harvey Clark (SPYDERPOPS) will be accompanying Lamont to do laser alignments for us. Since both Lamont and Harvey will be doing alignments, we have moved all alignments to Saturday, 4 Jan, starting no later than 8 AM. So far we have 18 folks committed (see list below) so we have room for a couple more. I'm sure they will not turn anyone away but I really would like to have an accurate tally so they know what to expect. Recommend you arrive at the alignment party location early, get your amazing laser alignment done, and hang around and swap Spyder tales with your fellow SpyderLovers and two Spyder World legends, Lamonster and SPYDERPOPS.

If this change causes problems for anyone, please PM me or send me an email at jlheiser@cox.net. We will do our best to accommodate everyone. Thanks,

John

UPDATE.....UPDATE
Lamonster Laser Alignments-Virginia is a go.
DATES: Friday, 3 Jan (starting about 1 PM); Saturday 4 Jan; Sunday 5 Jan (if required)
LOCATION: Remington VA (address to be provided via PM to those committed to getting alignment)
COST: $120.00 per Spyder (CASH ONLY please)

If you are seriously interested in getting your Spyder(s) laser aligned by Lamont, send me a PM. I'll need to know your name, preferred day, and time (AM or PM). I'll reply with the specific address in Remington where Lamont will be set up to laser align your ryde. We will need at least 10 folks committed to showing up to make this happen. Pls let me know if you have questions.

I contacted Lamont to see if he would be interested in coming to VA to do laser alignments. He needs to do at least 10 alignments to make it profitable for him to travel 300 miles or so. Charlottesville VA is about 300 miles from Greeneville TN. So, looking for at least 10 owners interested in getting an alignment done by none other than the Lamonster in Charlottesville VA. Also need someone in the Charlottesville area to "host" the alignment event. By host I mean provide a space for Lamont to do the alignments. Lamont offered to align the host's Spyder for free as an incentive to volunteer to be "host" for the event. I don't yet have a date set with Lamont for him to come to VA. Need to know if there is enough interest before arranging a firm date and if there is someone willing to step up and be host.

if you are interested in having Lamont laser align your Spyder pls either PM me or post on this thread. Also need to know if you are located in/around Charlottesville and are willing to host this event. Need a host and at least 10 folks to commit, then I'll arrange a firm date with Lamont.

i believe Lamont charges $120.00 to do the alignment. He may charge a little more since he is traveling from TN. Also understand he does not charge you if he discovers your bike is aligned after setting it up using the laser equipment. I've had my Spyder laser aligned but I still have a slight pull to the right. Lamont told me he can fix that, so I've added my name to the list:

1). John Heiser
2). Ed Richards
3). Chris Patient
4). Doug Taylor
5). Martin Hoffman
6). Paul Germain
7). Mark Harrington
8). Julie Harrington
9. Nathan Zaharek
10). Frank Zaharek
11). David Buckwalter
12). Parrish Wolford
13). Dave Kozik
14). Sharon Heckstall
15). Sedrick Grandberry
16). Dana Grandberry
17). Carla Thomas
18). Shana Caldwell
19). Gerald Knapp
20). Fernandel Bardouille
21). Chief Johnson
22.) Dan McNally (depends on weather)
23). Charlie Robinson (depends on weather)
24). Kenny Wright

Ed Richards

John-
Count me in so long as the dates will not be between Dec. 8 and Dec. 19, as I will be out of country.
If you want, I can e-mail you a list of owners in Virginia. Would be great to have it done before heading to Springfield!

I don't need it but I'd be willing to ride up there to hang out with y'all. I'm only 230 miles away.

[spyder-dude]

I am waiting for my 2014 RTS and hoping it won't need an alignment but hopefully will know soon.

I thought of an idea for this arrangement. Possibly you could get with Virginia Power Motorsports which is in Ruckersville, VA just above Charlottesville. Maybe arrange to do this at their facility and also have a couple of their technicians there to have Lamont show them how he does the alignments and hopefully when they see the results and time savings they will buy one of these devices.

Gary Phillips is the owner there and their phone number is (434) 990-0005.

Unfortunately I am not buying my new spyder from them as they wouldn't give me crap for trade in.....so don't mention my name but I know several of the guys on here have purchased their spyders from them.

[MTFan]

John, count me in. I will be travelling between now and the end of February. Just let me know when and where.

It is well worth traveling a couple of hundred miles to get the alignment done and I couldn't recommend anyone more highly than Lamont to do it. I am lucky to live within 25 miles of Lamonster and have been to his place a few times. He aligned mine a few weeks ago and it really did make a big difference in my handling on my 2010 RTS.

[mob133]

don't want to add my name to your list but please post or pm me with the dates if you set it up and I can let you know if I could make it ,would be a good reason to take a ride down from the philly area

[Yfactor]

I would be interested if after the first of the year and for both Spyders (RT & RS)

[2 Stricklands]

If you do not get any body in the Charlottesville area, I would be willing to host it at my Place. I am about 2 hours from Charlottesville and about 1 hour from Lynchburg. I am just off of Route 122. I have a two car garage and lots of room to park many Spyders. I could set up tables and chairs and do a cook-out if you would like to spend a day.

I would like to get this done but I'm seriously considering getting a 2014 RTS and I don't want to put any more money into my current Spyder. I'm having the 14,000 miles service done with new rear brakes and rear tire.

[SpyderMarkus]

Already replied on FaceBook... Mark & Julie Harrington! Don't think my Spyder needs alignment, but willing to find out. I know my wife's Spyder needs it! Been thinking about heading up north to PA; however, if we can get it done here in VA that would be great! With four kids all with different school schedules, as much advanced notice would be good. Thanks!!

Thanks Steve and Barb. So, who is still in if we hold this at the Strickland's home in Hardy Va probably after the first of the year? Also asked this same question on SRA-Old Dominion Facebook page. Thanks...hope we can make this happen.

[mhoecker]

I want in but can't do it the weekend of Dec 14 or on Dec 21.

Still like 4 hours away each way for me.

[Spydered]

John, I am still a go.

[SpyRyd]

Okay, got 13 Spyders lined up for a Lamonster Laser Alignment in the early Jan '14 timeframe (see post #1 for list). Now all we need to make this happen is a host in the Charlottesville VA area. If no one steps up to host this event, then I think it is best we postpone this endeavor until the Mar/Apr '14 timeframe and in another location, maybe Hardy VA.

[RBS66]

If Lamont ever wanted to come to Pennsylvania I would gladly host it. I live a few minutes off the Pa turnpike.

Good group Bro Keep me posted and I will be sure to be there.

I responded to John on FB already but will also respond here. I'm an hour north of Charlottesville and am willing to host. I have the facility and space for it. It would even give me the incentive I need to hook up my under-floor heat I installed when I built this garage.

Looks like that's 400+ miles from me.

Almost.

Still 4 hours away for me.
