    Mike uses the Rolo System, also known as the outlaw system. He also uses the factory Bud system to re program the computer telling it that it is the proper alingment so it will not go into limp mode.
    I just called him to confirm that so I know first hand.
    I also got another guy today that is going to get it done.

    Im always up for a ride and some BBQ. If Sarah is up for riding, since her surgery. If not we will drive up and meet everyone. Ill let you know when we get closer. Just put her new backrest and exhaust on. Maybe that will encourage her to get better and start riding again.

    I also remember him saying he does not do anything to the rear wheel. everything is lined up to where the rear wheel is pointing at the time, So if you need to do any final adjustments like belt alignment and tension, Id do it first. I was going to check mine again before he comes. if anyone need help with that, call me or mike to discuss.

    I will give everyone getting an alignment some sort of order so they can plan a time to get here. I dont expect everyone to hang out all day.

    Yep, bikes all fixed. Haven't ridden it though but I've replaced the same seal before and I'm confident it will hold up. I installed her new backrest and pipe while she was healing up. Use it as a motivational piece to get her back on the bike.

    In relation to an alignment, the front wheels will be aligned to where ever the rear wheel is pointed so if you feel the belt needs alignment, id take care of that first. The tention is something that needs to be looked at but not critical to the alignment. I am no expert on it so if you have any questions, call Mike to discuss. Im sure he can help you with any additional work you may need. I have the tools but I have never done it. Seen the video and have a kricket II, jacks and torque wrenches. It does not look hard, and I may tweek mine some but as of now my belt is where it needs to be according to the conversation I had with Mike. He said he likes the space between the belt and the sprocket to be somewhere between a credit card and a business card gap. Thats about where mine is now. according to the Kricket, my tension is 220 pounds. I an thinking of adding a smooth Spyder tentioner at some point though.

    As far as contributions for the food, I will not require any. If anyone wants to bring food, drinks ect that is up to them if they feel so inclined. If we start running low, we have stores nearby and plenty of folks that would want to take a field trip to scope out the area. I wouldnt rule out an impromptu RYde just to get out. Greenville also has Louis Powersports if anyone needs to visit a Spyder dealer for any reason.

    Just a reminder to all those scheduled for a laser alignment, its this Saturday. Anyone else wanting one can still get on the schedule can text me or call me. at 972-754-6692. I don't always answer my phone so a text sometimes works better. I constantly get spam calls and ignore some calls that I do not recognize. It looks like it will be a nice sized crowd, around 25 or more.
    Thanks,
    Bill

    Thanks to Bill and his wife for hosting and Mike for coming to do the alignments. We all had a great time and the food was excellent!
    The alignments made a HUGE difference. My wife was skeptical but had to admit there was a night and day difference between the ride down and the ride home!

    Thanks to Mike Brown for coming and doing top quality work. You can easily tell someone who puts his customers first and loves his work.

    Thank you Bill and Mike. Although we didn't get to stay long it was good to meet some local riders and get the bike aligned. The food was outstanding as well. Thanks so much!
