Appointment disappointment

[Magdave]

I made an appointment to get the software update and just got off the phone with the dealer. They won't do just the software without doing the fuse box and they do not have parts. Told them to order them and call me. It is supposed to be a 60deg day today and winterstorm tomorrow. Long range forecast is nothing above 50deg for next week and 1/2. Call me a wimp but I do not care to ride 2hrs in 40deg weather.:dontknow:

good luck tomorrow

i can understand the dealer wanting to do all the work at one time but i just heard on the news that you guys could get up to 12 inches of snow in the next couple of days

I live close enough to the coast that all we will get is a little snow.....BUT freezing rain and sleet is on the menu. Inland will get hammered.:yikes:

I agree with the dealer on this one. Do only half the job. Not get paid until the the job is complete, whenever that may be. Handle your Spyder twice to get the job done. What's your hurry you got 3 yrs to get it done!!!!! In this cooler weather there is no problem anyway. Give the poor dealer a chance to to get the parts in and in a couple weeks I bet he will get you in.

Dave I am with you 100% on riding in the cold. There is now a " once upon a time" statement to add to that statement.

I am sitting here in the Daytona Beach, FL area and it is 70 degrees partly cloudy wet and not a fit day to go bikini watching.

I am wondering what the waterproofing the fuse block is going to accomplish in the heat problem?

It is a 3 different problem correcting bulletin, not necessarily connected to each other.

Of course waterproofing the fuse box has nothing to do with the heat. Neither does putting new screws in the belt guard on the ST. Neither does fixing the ECM so that it does not go into limp mode for heat when it is not overheating. None of these will reduce heat, but they still need to be fixed.

40 degrees is very comfortable with just a bit of the right gear... hyea:

Things don't get serious until you get down into the low 20's. :yikes:
