    Seats are quite easy. more than happy to help if you want to hook up. Have a three car garage if you can get to southside of Richmond. Plenty tools to do the work. Have not experienced the saddle bags yet but can't believe we couldn't tackle this either. Will work for beer!

    Default Thanks, that will be great

    I want be able to do anything for a couple of weeks, or until after I get the front saddle back. It was ripped on both sides. Looks like one of the locks on the bags may need some adjusting so the top will remain locked. Hope it's that simple because I really want to see how it all looks. I will remain in touch. Thanks again

    Why are all the SPYDER riders up north? I live in VA Beach and see a few SPYDERS but they are few and far between. Why don't you guys/gals come down south sometime?

    Planning to make several trips that way this year. Just had breakfast in Jamestown a few weeks back on the nickle dime run out of Richmond. Will let you know when I am heading that way again.

    Default SPYDER IN SHOP

    Hey, Paul how are things with your spyder? I too had to put mine's in the shop. Got tired of it hanging up in gears, it happened four times in a two hour period. Just missed a thunder storm and ducked into a McDonalds. Hope to have it back by the end of next week. I was thinking about the NC ride on the 27th. If all goes well with the spyder I think I will put her on the road. ken

    Default IT SADDENS ME TO LEARN THAT

    I hope everything goes well, and hair is over rated any way. That's why we have our helmets and caps. I also got my spyder back today. Runs good but the hindle is doing a lot of back pressure when I let up on the throttle. I will check to make sure it is tight. I will put the saddles on sometime this week. Let me know how you are doing.ken

    Smile spyder problems

    I'am having the same problems. Gas smell, noisey brakes, and e-brake. I was told by dealer if I wanted them fixed I would have to leave bike. It's 90 miles each way. They wouldn't order parts with out bike at lot till fix. I'am still riding it? Gas smell is when it's hot. E-brake broke first day on way home. They fixed it. and three weeks later was out again. we ride out of Roanoke VA. would injoy hearing from others. We love the spyder and riding it. On way to up state New York. Over the 4TH

    Default Happy Birthday and Congrats and Welcome to SL

    That's a nice present for your 42nd, we are going to have to set up a meet as I see there are more and more Spyders springing up throughout Northern Va. If you already have a motorcycle endorsement you are set. I will have to check Harpers Ferry out, it sounds like a nice ride.

    Default VA Beach

    Hey, you guys around Richmond, when are you all coming South? I know the bridge tunnel is bad. I think there's a lot of SPYDER riders down our way. I've had mine since November and have seen a few riding around the "beach" area. I ride up to Pierce's BBQ (Lightfoot) several times a month.
