    Default GREAT NEWS

    .............You will be much happier if you buy one with the 1330 engine, much less maintenance, which much less cost to own.....It also is quieter, and less odiferous ......But try before you buy so you know in advance.......Mike

    I'm west of the 495 and on the border with NH. Work in Manchester NH, will be riding up here as much as I can, road today. 2015 RT, picked it up last October. It was a demo unit, so it came with a few extras. I have seen a number of on the road up here and down around RT119. My wife is still on 2 wheels along with the rest of the family. We have not gone out on a ride since I traded in my Nomad, but hope we can do one soon. Hope to meet more owners in our neck of the woods.

    When I bought my Spyder, finding other Spyder riders had been a big concern of mine as well. In the end, I ride with groups that are largely on two wheels, and are happy to have me as long as I keep up with the pace of the group (which is almost always the case).

    I feel like an old-timer here... I've been on Spyderlovers since 2008. I had a 2008 RS and traded in 2010 for a 2010 RTS. Been riding that ever since. Always going to customer appointments all over northern mass. Yes even into downtown boston.

    Admittedly less since we moved to the very north shore, but I ride when I can and when weather permits. (I don't ride in less then 50deg.)
    RT-S # 352; Timeless Black... faster than any other color. Mods: EasternBeaver PC8 Fuse Box, 12v digital dashboard display, RearTrunk internal Lights.

Custom mud flap lights. Daytime Running Lights (3wattsx6). Heated Corbin seat with 'Lamonster' cut. JBL 400watt Amp,
    Other secret mods.

    I am also no where near Boston.

    I am sure you will find someone or a group/groups of spyder riders in or around the Boston, Mass area to ride with.



    Go with a 2014 Spyder models and up, because of the 1330 engine, quiter, more power( even when you are riding 2 up, or towing a trailer) less maintance, 6 speed, etc.

    :welcome

    when you get your spyder.
