• 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.

Thanks for this post and thanks to you all that have jumped in. It's a great group of folks here....for the most part ;)
 
I was also a stalker, till I was shamed into posting this. You are a great group of people. The wife and I bought a 2014 rts about 3 months ago. Best decision we ever made. Home is Brazil, Indiana (about 50 miles SW of Indy). I try to keep a very low Internet profile, so this is unusual for me to post. I am a cyber crime detective with the Indiana State Police. Anybody that needs advice on whether somethings a scam PM me. Hope to meet some of you, thanks for getting me out of my shell.

I'm a stalker, been reading this site for about two years. Bought my Spyder in April 2015. Test drove Spyder originally in 2014. Finally worked it into my budget this year.
Rode it 350 miles home 2 days after buying. Made the trip to Spyderfest for an alignment, that wound up being 490 miles, same day.
Took a trip to Monticello Iowa one day round trip 790 miles. Heading to Vegas September 27th for Vegas Bike Fest. Be home October 4th that should be about 2800 miles give or take depending on weather and which route we take. Right now I have about 3800 smiling miles on my RT.

I do want to thank everyone for their input on this site although you have caused excess stress on my debt load. But very thankful, without your inputs the ride would not be nearly as enjoyable.

I sell wholesale building material's and I am a volunteer firefighter. If you see a Kansas firefighter tag on a Cognac RT S Spyder its probably me.
:welcome: and welcome to the Cognac Club. I also have a 2014RTS-SE6 Cognac. Deanna

The Ultimate Spyderlover

I am 6'2'' 195lbs married with 2 daughters.... ;) . hihihihihi.... One of the 2, and her husband have 2 RSS and my wife and I also have 2 spyders. One RS and one ST. Therefore we got a trailer made to fit the 4 spyd3rs on it, (i.e. 7'2'' X 20', 2 X 3500lbs axles). I pull the 5th wheel, and they pull the spyd3rs..... We are able and equipped to ''explore'' the north american continent. We are retired, and they still work..... poor them...!!!!!! :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:

Other than that, my wife an I are wagonmasters for a group of RVers. So far we covered Canada from the atlantic (St-Johns,NL) to the Pacific (Vancouver Island, BC), and the USA and Mexico south to Guadalajara and Acapulco, stayed 5 weeks in Puerto Vallarta ,coming back by the pacific coast. Florida including the keys to Key West, and West coast (except California) were also visited. Spent winters in Arizona twice.

When we are home, (not often :yes::yes::roflblack:) we life north of Montreal, QC. Canada. We also visited France for a month using the car rental and mobile home rental in the campgrounds formula. We skied the Alps, the Rockies, and went to spain for our honeymoon.... The east coast beaches have no secrets for us. (Visited Myrtle beach 27 times, the NC outbanks, Viginia Beach, Cape May, Atlantic city, Cape Cod, Rhode island, N.H. and Maine)

Other than that, I enjoy mechanic, do my own maintenance on the 4 spyd3rs, the Cummins hauler, and the 3 others cars and Jeep.

Other than that, we are quite normal peoples, living our little lives..... as long as the health will hold on, we will continue to live our ''dull'' life :D ;) :clap:

When we are home, we ride with the ''Club Spyder des Laurentides'' every saturday, and are going to Spyderfest and all.... next week, labour day weekend, we will go with 250 other Spyders for a weekend (5 days) in ''lake st-Jean'' Québec, to support the ovary cancer research cause.

Here is a pic of our trailer loaded with the Spyd3rs.....

There is no doubt about it, you are the ultimate Spyderlover. To have created a trailer to haul 4 Spyders around is the most amazing expression of true passion that I have ever seen. Congratulations !

I've Been Derelict.

we all would love to hear what you have to say..... :yes:
Dan P Easley, SC SPYD3R F3-S

Well, I haven't posted in a while. Last time was about my frustrations with getting my :spyder2: working. The shop installed all the right parts to get my windshield working, got clutch squared away, and my spyder runs GREAT! Another day of work, and I head on out on another road trip. N.S., CA here I come!
 
Ok, my turn:

My wife and I own a 2014 RTS and really enjoy it. We had a Goldwing before, but following heart surgery I lost some confidence in holding up a heavy bike. This spyder is just awesome. Bought from an awesome dealer in Springfield, Mo., Pitbull. We are both retired, me from Arkansas State Police with 35 years service and my wife from the transportation industry. We ride the beautiful Ozark mountains and have trip plans for Maggie Valley and then Cody, WY. Will trailer to those places. Really enjoy this site and read post at least once a day. Thanks folks for all the great information shared here.
 
Bob D and his 59262 post count.

Looks like insurance business is slow. 59,262 posts since Sep 2010 comes out to 32.47 posts over 1826 days. That includes weekends. if you think in terms of 10 hour days on the forum, that equates to a little over one every 20 minutes. That leaves plenty of time to research and change new avatars. :shocked::cus:!!!:roflblack::roflblack:

Keep those cards and letters coming in folks. Correctness be damned. How do you really feel? Forget about what you think people want to hear. What do you want to say.(no I am not running for president):D

Jack

I often chime in on things, and always say how I feel.....it is a FORUM after all. No harm in speaking your mind. Some appreciate it, some get a bit butthurt. I've been scolded here before. Wasn't the first time, won't be the last. In the end though, there is a lot of very valuable info to be shared by many of the regulars. I assume that many of the newer folks weren't born yesterday either. I don't imagine that the Spyder is the first bike for too many. Post away!!
 
I'm a stalker too ! I posted once I was looking at F3 but couldn't pull the trigger on $ 23,500 for one ! Maybe next year , I have thought of buying a wrecked Z3 and building my own Spyder. The posts are interesting so I will continue to stalk !
