    Default Stolen Spyder

    Please keep your eye out for a 2017 Spyder F3 S Daytona edition. It shouldn't be hard to spot as it will be the only yellow F3 in Washington.

    Long story short........A nice gentleman, 6' tall with a grey hoodie and blue jeans hopped on it this morning at about 11:26am (no helmet) in our parking lot and took off. Last seen on Highway 534 between Conway and Lake McMurray.

    If you see this Spyder in your travels, it is almost definitely our missing unit. Please notify your local law enforcement.....

    someone left it running for some reason. Theft of opportunity.

    Probably like most dealers, the key was left in it. It seems that since the start up is different from most bikes, they think that no one will be able to figure it out besides a spyder rider. While all the spyder riders I have come in contact with seem to be nice people, I would never leave a key in my vehicle. Good luck finding your bike. Probably some out for a joy ride. I can feel your pain though. I had a 1987 LX 5.0 stolen in 1994 and I still look when I see one that looks like mine.

    Default Sad news...

    not being a very commercial vehicle getting rid of it will not be easy. Finding it should not be that hard either. One can only hope they just park it and leave it somewhere. Had to have been ready to go and he must of known some about spyders otherwise I see no way this could have happened. I never leave the key in and walk away. Hope this gets resolved quickly...

    I hope you find it intact. I also hope the creep who stole it is dealt with accordingly. I hate thieves
