My milestone ryde today..
I took a ride with my brother-in-law and my nephew today. We met at 9am and I arrived back home at 1:30pm. Along the way, my 2008 GS which i bought used in July of 2014, passed 12,000 miles. When I purchesed it, it had 1,955 miles meaning i have 10,078 miles ridden on my Spyder.
Overall, my GS has served me well. I am very lucky to be walking, let alone riding, after suffering a TBI in 2001..but thanks to Can-Am, I AM.

Hi Vader,
Re: My milestone ryde today..
I did something similar this past Tuesday, I hit 10,000 miles on my Spyder. I bought it a little over two years ago with 4,000 miles on it.
Hope to get a bunch more,

Congrats, but what was the TBI caused by? Please don't say you were riding a motorcycle and wasn't wearing a helmet... my apologies for asking and being curious.

Hey Brian..my TBI was the result of an auto accident...well sorta. I was sitting in the drivers seat of a parked car, a Honda Accord, when a driver of another vehicle struck the car I was sitting in. Prior to my accident I had ridden motorcycles, street and dirt, for 30+ years.

Love reading stories of people who Can Am have helped ride, like they have me. I spent the first 22 years of my life unable to ride a motorcycle or even actual bike. Since I bought my RS back in 2012 I absolutely love it and have been riding everywhere and recently went over 16K miles. Been a great ride since I bought it and absolutely love it. Keep riding and keep spinning the wheels.
