take the oldest pair of undies you own.. smear a large dab of peanut butter on a strategic spot on them .. place the undies on the seat of your spyder.... no one will even come within 5 ft of it... ...

Truly one of the most stupid posts ever! Well done...
Make a laminated sign with an end that could tuck under the front of the seat and says, "Sitting on this machine could result in very unpleasant consequences."
My solution was to make this and stick it over the safety card, then leave the safety card out when parked. I've seen people walk up to the Spyder, read it and take a quick step back:-)
I love it! I've been wondering what to put on the safety card for when I pull it out to shade the instrument panel. This is what I'm going to make!
A few friends have mentioned that this has happened to them. They walk out of a store and someone is sitting on their Spyder snapping away with their phone. Is there a way to prevent people from sitting on a Spyder when the owner isn't around? If you have had a similar experience leave your story here if possible!
Pretty sure you heard this from me at the SRA-LA meet and greet.

Down here in Arizona we usually carry a large coffee can with a live Diamond back Rattlesnake in it. While away from the Spyder we put it on the seat in the sun. Diamond Backs love the sun. Never had anyone sit on my Spyder since.

I installed the Scorpion alarm with proximity sensor on my RS after repeatedly having this issue. My sister once sent my a picture she came across on Facebook of someone sitting on my Spyder in a parking lot!
The alarm chirp would let people know- look but don't touch. I have nothing on our other RS and new F3.

Sorry, I sat on your trike...Is that one of those Spyders? Anyways, I forgot I had roofing tar on my jeans and shingle cutter in my back pocket....Hey, HEY WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH MY SHINGLE CUTTER? THE SUN DON'T SHINE THERE, HEY OWWW...OWWWWWWW...my bad.
I want one of these and sew on some Velcro in correct spots to attach to mirror arms and grab handles. Have one currently but it is just a plain white towel--works okay just don't have any "neat factor" for my F3. http://www.cafepress.com/+beach_towel,1371818869
Had this happen to me once. I asked the guy where his car was. He pointed it out to me and I went and sat on the hood of his very expensive Lexus. Boy was he pissed! I pointed out that it was no different from him sitting on my Spyder, and that kinda took the wind out of his sails. I would have rather punched his lights out, but my darling bride advised me that I really would not want to get arrested. I now have a "sunscreen" that I got from Spyder Sisters, and it not only keeps idiots from sitting on my Spyder, it has the added benefit of keeping the seat from baking in the sun. Check 'em out.
Another vote for spyder sisters. I emailed to ask for a black one when it wasn't listed on their site. It's a great product to keep by buns cool on a hot day with the added benefit of keeping people off my RT.
I will have a little sign made and leave it on the seat.
I use to work at a retail grocer many years ago. A number of us rode our motorcycles to work. Having people sit on them was common and irritating. The parents use them like coin operated ponies.....I came out once and told a parent it was not a pony to ride on....to get their kid off of it !
Another time......my motorcycle was tipped over....(atleast that cant happen with the ).
Had a lot of people sit on my RS without asking but so far people look but don't touch without asking. The RS was a pretty blue where the F3 is kind of an obnoxious orange so I wonder if that has something to do with it.
Wanna keep people from touching or even looking at your ride ????????? Park next to me...........
Ask Rnet...... he will tell ya !!!!!!!!
Love my Spyder peeps though, wouldn't trade them in for nothing. I'm waiting for the 2016 unveiling to see if it can persuade me to come back home..................

If they come out with a new latest and greatest, there are probably quite a few also sitting on the fence. 45 hours or so to go--if you are counting.
