Newbie forum member from South Central Texas - "Howdy!"

[Mrs. SmallPasture]

Howdy!

Sorry to say I just found yall!!! Or I should say my husband just found yall. He just switched over to a Honda F6B and joined their forum and found out about SpyderLover, so here I am!

I bought my 2011 RS new and have just over 10,000 miles of pure joy on it. The main joy is after 15 years of staring at the back of his my husbands helmet, I have a clear view and I'm in control! I'm never going back!!!

I would like to say as just about every other new member has stated that the information here is truly a God send! I have no modifications on it except fat hand grips that my husband put on. He isn't much of a wrench turner and of course neither am I. I'm a bit overwhelmed w/ all the options/modifications that I can do to my RS. After working my butt following my husband thru the twisties of the Texas Hill Country I think I need to look at the sway bar (BajaRon) and laser alignment part 1st, no? I obviously work much harder in the corners than he does on his 2 wheeler and from what I'm reading those 2 modifications/adjustments will make my riding much easier thus more enjoyable.

Thanks again for all the contributions made to this forum. It's a treasure trove!

Welcome and congrats.

[Chupaca]

to the roadster world, which you have mastered, and this amazing site. You will find all you can think of spyder here and glad you are joining us...

[PrairieSpyder]

I'm glad you finally found us. You're right that this site is a treasure trove of info about all things Spyder. It's also just fun - at least after you get to know us better. I'd say the Baja Ron bar and laser alignment are good places to start on farkles.

Do you know about SpyderFest? It's an annual rally in Springfield, MO. It's usually late in April or early May. If you haven't already been there, that's the place to spend some money on your machine.

[coz]

welcome mrs. small. you might want to up your front tire pressure to 18 or 19 lbs. try setting your shocks to five. these will make a big improvement in handling. laser alignment is worth the money as is a ronbar.

[jaherbst]

Love your handle. Care to explain??

Thanks Jack! It's a play off my husbands last name. It's one of several nicknames he called growing up based on it. One of my other favorites is HalfAcre!! He fits the smaller stature descriptions well and w/ humor! He doesn't have a short man's complex except maybe when he's on his new bike (Honda F6B). That has gone to his head a bit!

Thank you. We both grew up in Houston (west side). When we left back in 06' we were living in the T.C. Jester & 43rd area just north of downtown back in 06'.

Checking out the Texas board now! Big thanks!

Thank you Gunner! We will be going to the rally in the Texas Hill Country in October that I just found out about. It's in our backyard! Wow, you switch from 2 to 3 just recently. Mr. SmallPasture can't seem to handle my spyder. He says it's like riding a 4wheeler at highway speeds and it freaks him out. I don't understand what his problem is. Then again I can't ride a motorcycle as I've proven in the past!

Hope to meet you and the Mrs. soon!

Belated , and you go girl!

Very Happy Trails...
