    Default New to me spyder owner

    My new to me 2012 Spyder RT Limited arrived Tuesday afternoon.

    So far I like it a lot. Still keeping my 1983 Yamaha Venture as the wife is laying claim to the Spyder.

    on your new ryde. The 2012 is considered the best of the 998 RT's. You even got it in the "classy" color.

    I also had a 1983 Yamaha Venture. That was my first "big" touring bike. I loved the heck out of that one.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    That's what happened to me. It started off as our Spyder, then all of a sudden it was her Spyder. I'm back on my Valkyrie, which is a great bike also.
