    Default THANK YOU Squared Away Alignments

    Just got home from having our 2009 RS aligned by Joe and Ann of Squared Away Alignments.

    WOW is all I can say.

    It was like riding a brand new Tryke. I never knew it could be like this.

    I did not have any problems (that I knew of) before the Alignment.

    The tryke way WAYYYYYYY out of alignment.

    When they finished the 90 mile ride home was amazing!!!!!


    Thank you both so much.

    WOW! Squared Away Alignments must really be awesome if they can align a Spyder and it turns into a trike.
    Seriously they are good people and great friends!

    It's amazing how we think that the way the Spyder handles is the way it should be.

    Before the laser alignment, thought left hand turns always took a bit more grunt.

    Turned out that both front tires were toed right a quarter inch.

    Now can turn both ways with ease. It's wild how a quarter of an inch can make that much difference!

    Enjoyed talking to you and your wife today & happy your alignment worked so well. Mine ended up not happening, because my Spyder was so far out of alignment, that it had destroyed my front wheel bearing. So we babied the GS back home, Chris will do the repairs this week and then get an alignment done in 2 weeks. :-)

    I also have to give a huge thank you to Steve and Roslyn for opening their home and garage to us. We couldn't have done this without them.
