    Hi everyone, just picked up my new (to me) 2009 GS Spyder. Put about 50 miles on it and it was a nice ride once I started to relax. Been riding motorcycles for over 40 years, so I'm sure it will take a while before I'm used to it.

    Take your time. It will be a few miles before you convert the brain cells to 'Y' Factor Mode. Once you do, you'll really start to enjoy the experience.

    Looks just like my 2009.....
    Now, next year, bring it up to SpyderQuest ,and get some pin striping done.
    You won't believe how it changes the look of the Spyder.....
