Three Days In...time to Farkle

[JoeCPA]

I've had my 2016 RT for three days. I've put 300 miles on her.... Now I need a couple of things and want advice on what to buy. First I need a cover. I keep Joanette under a carport so I don't need a heavy duty one, but would like to keep dust and leaves off of her and the occasional sideways rain. So suggestions on a cover?

2nd, I got an Xgrip mount that I took off from my Goldwing, but what do I need to mount it to my Spyder?

3rd since I didn't get the GPS option, what apps do you use (iPhone) to navigate etc, is there a way to get the turn my turn directions to come through the sound system?

Thanks for the advice....

Joe

Cindy,
I was looking at those "Super-Wide" rearview mirrors, at your display at SpyderFest. Is there an easy way to mount one of those mirrors onto your accessory bracket? :dontknow:

Yes there is.. The mirror comes with custom bracket, ball, RAM short arm .. Which attached to this new aluminum bracket.
Hm.. I guess I didn't show it to you at the show. It was mounted on our RT on display.

But here are the pictures..

Hi Michael, you can go online to our company : www.tricled.com
Should be under new item or Spyder RT section.

Very easy to install, just replacing 2 screws from RT dash..

I'm in the same situation as you as I park my Spyder in a 3 sided carport. I cover my Spyder with the Ultrguard cover and it keeps the Spyder pretty clean. The cover is water resistant but not waterproof. Cover has elastic all the way around the opening of the cover which is quite secure. It also has 2 bungie cords which makes it almost impossible to come off. They come in 2 different colors, one being black and grey and the other is maroon and grey. Hope this helps. You can look on Ebay or I'm sure a site sponsor has them also.

Ultraguard is the cover I use (carport in Fla.)

Samsung hooked to radio fm through Jabra bluetooth device ($20)

Amazon music through same (325 free songs on file so far!)

And google maps at same time listening to music

Life is good!
