I took off my trailer hitch on my RTL. Wiped spyder down with damp rag an dry rag. Then sprayed on wax an polished spyder. Now its ready to ride from Yakima down 97 to hwy 14 an go along the Columbia river to Stevenson for lunch. Not sure if I will go back same way I came or head up north an pick up hwy 12 an back to Yakima. Really dont matter just keep on ridding.

I installed the short reach handlebars but do not care for them. They're too close. I ordered the F3 long reach C bars. Hoping those are better.
Update: Long reach bars were not available. I guess I'm going to stick with the attitude bars I have and hopefully return the short reach ones.

Yea, I ended up putting the attitude bars back on. So much more comfortable.

Oil Change and a bath before I made my Friday late night run to Mario's Pizza in Arlington, Va. Don't usually get home until 2 in the morning but it's worth it for that slice of heaven.

Spent the afternoon cobbling up a cover for the
dash and seat of the F3T. Custom mirrors are
slowing the project.

Installed a Motohorn and picked up a OEM Auxiliary light switch from the dealer to replace the one that is stuck in the on position.- $112.00 for a switch... OUCH!

Didn't do nothing to the Spyder today. Trying to decide if I need to build an ark and collect some animals, two by two.

I installed the MadStad 18" Adjustable Windshield today. Looks good and I'm sure I'll use it on longer trips; however, I think that I'm going to reinstall my sports shield for the day-to-day riding.

Yup .. 14" dark gray for day/day and 22" light tint for trips. Very convenient.

Went on my 1st long ride since having the cat delete pipe and the Baja Ron new 3pc sway bar installed on Friday. OMG!!! It sounded better and it definitely handled better. I'm the only trike in my group of friends that I ride with and today I felt really comfortable in the curves once we really started to get on it.
If any is debating doing the sway bar upgrade, don't wait do it, it's totally worth it.

I totally agree. I did the BajaRon swaybar a couple of months ago. Also did the cat delete from LaMonster. Anyone who is pondering whether to do it or not.....don’t even think about it....JUST DO IT!

I agree that the sway bar is the way to go. Did mine as well a month ago and it really makes a difference in corner handling. I bought the RLS Crusher but it just wasn't for me. A bit loud. I can't find any sites on what the cat delete sounds like. After putting the crusher on, I'm hesitant to splurge yet again on something I might not like.

Proper fuel tank vent (Canister-ectomy).
Proper crank case vent.

Installed Spyderpops missing belt guard (regularly on gravel roads) and the TricLed brake light flasher, investigating wires for the ST2 Brake Module (as I downshift much more than brake). Then LED's up front and some minimal WrapMySpyder accents.

Installed the BajaRon Sway bar with Lamonster Links, WOW what a difference. Like others on here said, It's definitely worth it. Now the next project will be new performance Shocks on my 2013 Spyder ST-SE5
