    Default Goodbye and thank you . . . .

    I've traded in my Spyder and moved back to two wheels (although I never really left with my ever-present Ducatis). This time a new FatBoy has been added to the collection. I just want to thank all the wonderful people on this board who have been both helpful and encouraging during the times that the Spyder behaved less than nominal. Remember, I had both an SE and an SM. This is a great bunch of folks, and I would very much like to check in now and then to see just how everyone is doing.

    Again, keep up the great work with this board and a great big THANKS!

    Same here! Sorry to hear that you got rid of your spyder, but I am glad you didn't bash it like some of the others have in the past. I have had no problems, and I am going to continue to ryde mine. Enjoy your new ryde, great of you to check in!!!

    You both got really nice rides...I do prefer the trike configuration though...more stable and more visible on the road...the reason I got the Spyder...

    Default Good Luck...

    Hey, if you're out there riding, you're living the dream, one wheel, two or three... This life isn't for everyone. If it were, can you imagine how crowded this site would be..not to mention Deals Gap. Ride safe.. Len

    Default It doesn't matter what you...

    ride, two, three, four, eight, eighteen wheels... just get out there and enjoy the ride. Remember life is short and it goes by real quick. Slow down once in a while and look at what is around you.

    If you see a yellow and a red when you are riding by say "howdy" it'll probably be "She who must be obeyed" and me. /Ken

    Thank you all for the great comments and wishes. I did have some teething problems with my SE, and it was due to the shifting and of course a poor dealership and management that could care less-- probably contributing to why they are no longer in business. You just do not keep someone's vehicle for 6 or 8 weeks at a time and do absolutely nothing to it. My SM, on the other hand, was the proverbial "perfect Spyder". Absolutely no issues whatsoever and an awesome ride. The dealer where I purchased the SM was great. In fact, there is a Can Am "Ambassador" who will be riding a new Spyder that is based there. Ah, such a nice job.

    The 2010 Fatboy Low is sweet, as is my new "little" 2010 Ducati M696 (with the Termi and race ECU, rearsets, and of course carbon fiber bits here and there). Pics on request!

    Hope to see some of you guys at Daytona.

    Kind'a did the same thing... but keeping the Spyder. Just picked up an R1150GS for the 2-wheel fix, but love the Spydee, too!
