• 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.

I have a 2009 roadster with a little over 300 miles on it, Corbin seat adjustable windshield handlebar handbrake and other mods.this bike is still under warranty till April 2013 any idea what its value is? I just do not enjoy riding it.
 
Determining value is easy if you have not modified it. Otherwise you have find a balance between what it's worth and what you have invested. Some mods don't ad value while other add a lot.

The base price I would set the base price at between $13,500 to $14,500 for a quick sale. Add $1,000 for a "I don't need to dump it but would like to sell" sale. The right hand brake mod is desirable for some folks and is expensive so I would add $750 (about half it's new value). The Corbin seat is loved by some and not liked by others. I would add $500 for that as well

So let say a range of $15,000 to $16,500 due to low miles and add ons.
 
more time

three hundred miles isn't nearly enough to get used to a spyder. it took me nearly a thousand. give it another chance, unless you don't like riding period. sounds like a nice bike, easily sold:thumbup:
 
:agree: with coz. You should give it a thousand miles or so before deciding you don't like it. Unless, you just don't like to ryde.
 
spyder value

It may be me I had been riding for fifty years always two wheels then developed a disability. I used to have a Harley FLH before what a change.
 
it's you

i sold my flh last year to buy my spyder. for a long time i thought i had made a major mistake. somewhere between 500 and 1000 miles i finally got used to it for the most part. i'm still not fast in the twisties, but i really don't care. i still miss the h d sometimes, but i have grown to love the spyder:thumbup:

If you approach the Spyder with the expectation that it will replace a Harley, you are making a mistake. The Spyder is not a replacement for a Harley. The Spyder is a fun machine in its own right. In the past, I would tell my friends that the Spyder was 85 percent as much fun as a Harley. With the passage of time, this kind of comparison becomes increasingly less relevent. I love riding my Spyder, just as I loved riding my Harleys. Sometimes we just have to move on. I would recommend you give the Spyder several thousand miles before you make a judgement.
 
Sold my 2009 RS SE for 18,000.00 last spring with 50,000K on her. I figure I had about 11,000 in mods on it . I put it outside of my house and in 15 mins had two offers. Just have to have the right person that wants it. I know the stealer/dealer was only going to give me 14,000 for a trade on my 2011 RTS Limited .
