    Default Just Curious

    Just curious if there is a stock Spyder with no mods or accessories? There must be one or two out there, or maybe not.

    I am a fairly new owner (January), but if I ever do sell the Spyder, which I doubt, I think I will advertise it "Pay original cost for extras and the Spyder is free"

    Default Just One Mod . . .

    2008 SE5 Full Moon with trunk spring.
    ( it did come with the BRP Sport Touring windshield - so I consider that "stock" )

    Maybe I should change my ID to Stocky?

    2009 SM5 Full Moon...still completely stock, but then again, I've only had it for 3 months and put on 1500 miles so far...the stupid weather in VT this summer has been very uncooperative for riding.

    Some dealers are taking their in stock accessories and putting them on new Spyders as part of the BRP promotion offering a third year to the warranty and $1,500 in accessories.

    Ok, my "work Roadster" is completely stock! It's a 2009 Red Spyder. I've had it now since May 1st and have over 3300 miles on it! (It's stock cause they won't let me modify it)

    I can't afford any mods until I sell my Harley. I do have the Hindle that was included in the cost of the Spyder and those cute little red caps for the brake caliper.

    I thought that's what this forum was for - - to find all the farkles you want & buy them with or before the Spyder. That way, when you can't ride, you can learn the "intimate details" of you new ride....

    I've got a 1.5 week old, 2008 Red SM5 that's totally stock. Oh wait, I installed the 12volt adapter on Friday - sorry!

    Backrest next week... BRP side bags as well (maybe).

    Won't last long.

    OK, this raises an ethical question. Are BRP options considered mods? What if a dealer installs them? BRPJunkie's original question was "mods or accessories", so I guess the 12V outlet is an accessory, but do we tally it as a mod?

    Don't give up yet. I work with many diabetics who are in their 50's and my dad has diabetes and is 62. I'm sure you'll be around for a long time as long as you follow the doctors orders.
