• 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.

took dee's spyder out last night with new chad shield and i must say it performed well .... cut wind by about 75% but it is set all the way down and tilted slightly back (she likes it that way) no head bobbling like i got with other shields, didnt cause spyder to shake at high speed, really the only difference is what it was designed for to deflect wind and it does that no problem ... so if that is what you are going for then give magicman a call and get one of these ... they work great and dont look bad with the lines of the spyder.. and we all know how i feel about windshields.... long trip i might even consider one on mine ...but that is something i would have to really think about .... :D
 
I ordered my CHAD over the phone with MagicMan just the other day. He took the time to talk plenty about the shield and answered some of my other questions about their other products which was most helpful.

More impressive, and important to me... Is that he did not have the one I wanted in stock, and told me he was expecting them any day. When the phone rang today, I was not expecting it to be him, advising me that they came in and they would be shipping it out. It also looks like he didn't charge me ahead of the shipping of the product as many others do. I just expected it to show up sometime next week. The call was a professional, and nice touch. I don't ever regret giving someone who runs their business this way my $$$. :)

Can't wait to get mine on Monday and install it/ride with it.

The more I ride with CHAD - the more I LOVE CHAD.

That's right - I LOVE CHAD. I used to love LAMP, now I love CHAD.:D

Seriously, this has changed my riding about as much as any other mod. I can ride with my shield open and get nice air. It's really sharp looking (now that I cut the toenail corners off!).

I've used various other shields - and the CHAD gets a 10 !!!!

Closest thing to it was the CalSci XL with Laminar Lip - which I'll be selling.

The other ones I've tried (F1,GIVI, BRP) don't come close to the protection you get from the CHAD.


:2thumbs:
 
I wonder if Industries 7 will start changing the shape since everyone seems to want to cut the corners off. I imagine it would require some setup costs, but that may pay off with more orders from those who would not order because of the square look.

Myself, I would be nervous about cutting it, but don't like the square shape.
 
I think, especially the black and clear one doesn't look like a toenail and even if it did - I'd rather have a toenail then look at those Fugly mirrors! They are just too queer for me.
Butt how would you fix your makeup with out those Fugly Mirrors :yikes:
 
i said i might.....not that i'm going to ....:shemademe_smilie:


Famous Last Words, in order of irony:

1. "There are 2,500 Premiere Edition Spyders." (BRP, 2007)

2. "This is my last Spyder mod." (Lamont, 2007, 2008, 2009...)

3. "I am 99% done with my mods." (Lamont--see #2 above.)

4. "I'm not going to get a CHAD, it looks like a big toenail." (tatt2r, 2008-2009)

5. "You can use the new synthetic blend oil." (BRP rep, on my answering machine, 5/12/2009) nojoke
 
Chad for tall people?

I have one of Marcel's sliders that he made up for me and it is still too short. I still get alot of wind noise and buffeting with it all the way up. Does anyone 6'6" or taller have any experience with the chad? I hate to make a mistake again.

Let me know if you want to meet up sometime--- you can take my Spyder W. CHAD for a spin. Are you going to the 'Chicago' Spyder thing next wednesday? It's really NOT in Chicago---- it's in Indiana---.

I'm going to it--- there is some info at the BRP Spyder site--- it's the one where everyone is riding to a Quaker Steak to eat.
 
Here are some you tube links for the C.H.A.D.

I would like to meet you sometime and take a look at your CHAD. Where are you located?
I did see the Chicago meet:chat: in northern Indiana. Didn't pay much attention. You say it's Wednesday. As I recall you were supposed to register-which I didn't. Where exactly is it?

How tall are you?
