How many Spyders have you owned.....

[Bob Denman]

Hang tough; my friend...

[ARtraveler]

So far...Five...

2008 GS/SM5--the first one sold to a customer in Alaska.
2009 RS/SE5--one of the first SE5's sold in Alaska
2010 RTS Premier Edition #474--The first iteration of the RT with all the whistles and bells
2011 RT A&C--Purchased new in 2012 for Linda
2014 RT-S/SE6--this one has the new 1330/3 engine. Its looking like I am the only yellow colored one around here.

It has been a nice ride and I have over 130,000 miles across these five. Nothing new other than the F3 which does not fit ME well. Waiting until something really new or innovative happens with our "touring couches."

[retread]

'08 GS, 35000 miles, '12 RTS, 16000 miles so far, but it ain't snowing yet!

I am on my second. I started on the 2008 GS sm5 Premier Edition No. 2817. I now have the 2016 F3-T se6.

Well, I've owned one very well farkeled, now cool running, catless, fully paid for, beautiful lava bronze 2013 RTL, with a great sounding spunky 998 engine, that has never run better in its life than it's running right now. Not sure why I'd ever want to trade it for another. (I guess it's a little obvious that I'm a bit biased about the one I have.)

But after I've owned it eight years like your 2008 GS, and if I'm still riding, I might get an itch for a new one. Depends on what kind of machine they are selling in five more years.

I started with a used but well cared for 2008 GS, added 10k miles to the odometer and traded for a leftover 2015 ST for a better seating position, lighting, windscreen, and smoother ride. Both are great rides, but love the 2015 ST.

[Blue Star]

Started with a 2010 RS for two years.
Traded for a 2012 RT for another two years.
Tested two 2014's for BRP.
In process of getting a used 2014.

[PW2013STL]

Only two.

In Febuary of 2013 purchased a PW 2013 STL for Kathy as I still had my Harley, and she put on 6,900 miles on it.

In October of 2013 sold the Harley and traded the STL off for the PW 2014 RTL with matching RT 622 trailer that we share driving and riding. We only have 46,000 miles on it, but in 18 months when we both retire - watch out

I'm on my second.

Traded my canam maverick for a 2011 pearl white rt limited in beginning of July this year. I put 6000 on it. Then I traded it for a 2015 F3S. I have now put over 9000km on it.

By 2026 you just might be ready for another one.

[ingramwc]

One, purchased a leftover 2013 ST-S in May of 2015. I love it!!!!!

[Peter Aawen]

I dunno that 'how many Spyders' conveys much more than a mild loyalty to the brand to me, so I'm way more interested in 'How many miles have you put on any one Spyder?'

That, at least to me, implies a degree of solidarity & commitment to Spyders (or maybe just to A Spyder) & ryding far more than any numbered string of (relatively?) low mileage vehicles would; as well as displaying a degree of health, continuing physical durability, & a personal commitment to enjoying life that far outshines the repeated flitting from one to the next to the next as the seasons &/or colour preferences change or a new model hits the streets...... I reckon if you haven't had it more'n a year & put at least 20K on it, you didn't really OWN it, rather just had a fling!

But then, I've only ever owned the one 2013 RT Ltd Spyder, & so far have only managed to cover just under 30,000 miles on it, altho I've done quite a few more miles (millions probably) in/on other vehicles, bikes, & Spyders, & plan on doing a whole bunch more on this one - so maybe my perspective is just a tad skewed! Then again, what is really skewed about it?? I also had lotsa 'girlfriends' & even a few 'flings' before I met & fell in love with my 'then-to-be' future Wife; & now, with 4 surviving Kids, 4 Grandkids (so far - 2 of the Kids are yet to commit to parenthood), & a whole lot of 'Living Life to the Fullest' behind us, we've been married for 36 on the whole wonderful years with (hopefully) quite a few more of them to come!

(Altho.... while I've always said & believe that marrying the 'Child Bride' was what's kept me young & young at heart, sometimes these days I wonder if mehbe it's just worn me out prematurely, trying so hard to keep up?!? .......
