• 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.

Fake Spyders??

Consider the source of the item. You get what you pay for. They are probably made with poisonous melamine plastic powder (a wonderful milk additive) to top it off.
 
They are styled after the Bombardier Spyder with Reverse. Check out this link to YouTube!!

Interesting video--- She mentions 1,000 first year models. I had always heard the original PE goal was 1,500 and then they increased it to 2,500 once they starting selling too fast.

Also, technically this is not their first motorcycle. http://www.classiccanam.com/

Importers of Chinese Motorcycles, ATVs Arrested

March 14, 2010
Pair Charged With 70 Felonies; Certification Violations
Two top executives at Goldenvale Inc., a diversified California importer of powersports products, have been arrested and charged with illegally importing motorcycles, ATVs and other vehicles from China and selling the units in California without proper state certification.
Goldenvale president and owner Kening N. Ma and vice president Shirley Hyunae Ji were charged in a 70-count criminal complaint that includes conspiracy to commit theft, grand theft, and money laundering.
The pair were arrested last week, according to a published report in the San Bernardinto Sun newspaper.
The powersports products sold under the Roketa brand also include scooters, go-karts and other gas and electric-powered vehicles. The company, which operates facilities in Ontario, Calif., and Dallas, Texas, also imports items ranging from artwork and blankets to toys and cooking utensils. The company imported fewer than 2,000 powersports units last year, according to industry estimates.
The powersports units were sold on-line and through a national dealer network.
 
Just as a scooter is a simplified motorcycle, this thing is a simplified Spyder...no big deal...nobody is going to confuse the two...at least nobody who rides either one...

in any case i think is kool.
 
I did happen to notice the name is now Spider Replica, where before they were just calling it the Spider. :dontknow:
 
CHINA

Since before I was ever in the US Navy because in 1973 when I visited Hong Kong and S. Korea you could purchase complete works of Shakespeare, buy any book, any cassette music package for mere cents on the dollar. the copy right information in english right there even copied. UNREAL that they allow $crap into this country. I do not know how the KIA and other cars are allowed into the USA and how they ever passed our Depratment Of Transportation, National Highway Transportation Safety Administration without some kickback under the table. I would submit that the DOT, NHTSA has not really looked at the worse than ATV front end ball joints and steering systems under some of the cars on our highways. I can boycott all chinese products that I want but I feel alone sometimes. I don't like our Country owing a dime to the Chineese Government or our trading with them...esp with all the issues we have with them. People do not understand that they are killing our country everytime they purchase a product made in china. Sorry for the ramble it is a soapbox issue that really irritates me. Hopefully Safety Records will be reviewed and they will go away like Yugo and so on..:mad:
