• 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.

Now's the time to buy a 622 trailer!

The link shows not available right now but it will say contact your dealer. I'm sure they will have to make some calls but this is from the horses mouth. Great deal on a great trailer. I never unhook mine.

Talk to your accountant Bob! There's gotta be a way to write it off as a "business" expense... or maybe as therapy?
 
I wish, Patti!! They don't meet 'type approval' standards over here....don't know why, maybe ground clearance is seen to be an
issue. You could import one as a private individual but you would not be allowed to sell them on a commercial basis.
British Customs might prove to be a problem unless the trailer was a used one.
You could probably use it without having to answer any awkward questions as there are so few Spyders here anyway.
Generally speaking vehicles towing a trailer here are limited to 60mph.....I can't think of any exceptions.

Might be able to find someone here to manage the deal in their name, then ship it to you "used" with 0 miles.

Put business cards and brochures in the trailer for all those business calls you make "on the road." Now you have a company sales vehicle. Depreciate it over a 5 year period or so ($3499 (sale) / 60--that's only $58 per month). :thumbup:

Your friendly Accountant.

PS: $1K off is a great price. :2thumbs:

Bob, nothing wrong with getting a decal(s) made with your business information and applying it on the trailer. BAM! Rolling advertisement!:thumbup:
 
I really enjoy having the R622 trailer. My wife and I make weekend trips, or longer, many times during the year on the spyder and it is great to just throw luggage, folding chairs, a cooler, extra bulky jackets, helments etc. It takes away the problem of trying to pack everything in the spyder, trying to figure out just what jackets to take and, when the bike would be full, you have to carry helmets around cause there is nowhere to put them. Just pitch them in the trailer and lock it up. Plus it pulls excellant. I actually have checked my mirrors many times to see if it is still there! I know that sounds funny but those of you who have one understand. And believe me, it trailers so well that it won't slow you down in the twisties. I watched Lamont run off ahead of me once on a run to Shady Valley (known as the Snake) He was gone! Trailer and all, I didn't have mine with me at the time and he pulled away and was gone! The trailer was like it was on rails behind him. (he had just picked up his '14 RT at the dealer).
It is a pricey unit but I will say it is built well and I am very happy with it.

:agree: This last Saturday we drove up to a dealer 102 miles away for our 3000 mile service and I hooked up the trailer so my wife could get some expereance pulling the trailer before we leave for the owners event. She drove the whole way up and part of the way home and it was raining (light to deluge) the whole day. I asked here how that felt and she said she could not tell it was back there. :yes:
