• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

I'm a happy new Spyder owner

Meet at Spyderfest

Was shocked to see you're from "Media IL" ....I'm from near Galesburg, IL and am new to the spyder world too. We got our 2015 RT Limited from Pitbull in Springfield just a few months ago and plan on attending some events at Spyderfest this Spring too to see what it is all about. We have a place In Branson, MO too and are leaving it down there for the winter so we will be all ready for Spyderfest!! Maybe we will meet up with you there.... Have fun with it!!!!;)

I have registered for Spyderfest for the wife and I. We have reservations at the Lamplighter. Hope to see you there. I'm ready for a ride and some fun.
 
:congrats: on your New:spyder2: I'm sure you will enjoy it more than the Guzzi.
I'm also staying at the Lamplighter, will be there on the 27th. Looking forward to
meeting y'all. :yes:
 
Yesterday (Sunday) my wife Bonnie and I made a 500+ mile round trip to Nielsen's on the north side of Chicago to pick up our new Spydey, a '15 RT SE6 Special Series. Our time at Nielsens was an enjoyable experience too. We have been riding Guzzis for years but my wife hasn't been able to go with me for quite some time. We're hoping Spydey will change all that. Now just have to get some warm enough weather to ride. Freezing rain today. Hope to be able to make it to Spyderfest this spring and get an initiation into the Spyder life. Ride Safe


Hope you got a good deal from them. That's a long ride this late in the year to pickup a bike and ride home..You must have missed the sleet storm
 
I always wanted to be part of something, but a zoo? I'm sure the mrs thinks that I have all the qualifications. I've always said a person should at least be good at one thing. Now, farkle farkle, where should I begin. Oh scratch off the lazer alignment, Nielsens through that one in free gratis. Yaay[/QUOTE Add to your list of farkles list: WrapMySpyder.com( a vendor/sponsor on this site) ( Pete) Great Service, & Lamont's Garage to name a few, also look @ the " Home Page" for a list of Vendors/Sponsors on this site.

:welcome: enjoy your new :spyder2: you will love the new 1330 Ace Engine, less maintance, and etc. Deanna

Actually I think I got a very good deal. It was worth the trip to N Chicago (which us truck drivers call The Chitty City, which the Ch sounds more like Sh). When we were there a guy dressed in Harley synthetic picked up a new yel Limited and rode back to Ohio. He was braver than me to go around Chicago and Gary in those temps that fog up face shields. Anyway, sold my pickup to pay for the Spyder and ended up putting a hitch on the mini van. Have since sold the 14' trailer and will get a shorter single axle. But I finally had time this last Sunday for a short ride in 34o. I was all smiles. Ride Safe

Xmas Gift!!

Sounds like a great Xmas gift!! I've got to wait until I settle on selling my house to get my new spyder. Hopefully this spring. Got my eye on a 2015 RT-S SE6 in white or a 2015 RT-S Limited in yellow. Happy Riding!:congrats:

Good thing it has the shorty windshield on it. If that had been the full size windshield and left on like it looks like you did here, the wind quite possibly would have ripped it right off. The windshields are designed to go 80 mph forward, not backward!
