New member just bought a new 2011 Spyder RS SM5

[3 wheeler]

Hi everyone, I just joined the site. My wife and I just bought a new leftover 2011 Spyder RS. We are avid atv riders and do ride a Harley Softail as well. My wife really wanted a Spyder and I test drove a used 2009 RS with the SE5 transmission. I really liked it and it reminded me of riding an atv or a snowmobile on the street, but I didn't care for the push button shifting. My dealer had a leftover new 2011 with the manual transmission, and gave us a good deal on it. The only option I had them put on it was the passenger backrest/sport rack. After I got it home I put the handlebar inserts in it, and I am currently in the process of putting the passenger footpeg extensions on it. I also have the Custom Dynamics 3 inch riser kit to put on it. As I had the side panels off today, I was checking it over good and wow, what's the easiest way to get that airbox lid off!? Seems like a really nice machine, we've had Can-Am atv's before and they make very powerful high quality machines. I've been reading lots of good info on this sight, looking forward to putting some miles on it when the weather warms up. Here are some pictures of our new ride, thanks for reading...
