• 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'm Patti and I test rode a HD TriGlide and liked it! That was last Saturday. Then as of Monday I was getting quotes and dealing with 2 HD dealers. On Monday night I was unable to sleep much for thinking about it. What did I really want? I want a good machine that I can have serviced without driving across country. The 2014 surely fit that bill.

But I really like the Spyder. I took it out a couple times this week, and though it doesn't have a lot of the whistles and bells as the Tri, I fell in love with it again. I just wished there was a Spyder dealer within 50 miles of me. I also really appreciate the sense of community of the Spyder world.

(Love you guys!)

So I decided to go to Spyderfest, after all, and then called Len. He's got my name on a 2014 RTS and I've been approved for a loan. So I need to think about what I'll pack, find my title, contact my insurance co, etc. I'll go to Springfield on a red 2011 and come home on a yellow RTS!!:yes:

He's going to be able to transfer my Ultimate seat and hitch. Then at the 'fest all I need to buy will be highway pegs and a bump skid!

Then, if I think I can afford it, I'll have to look into Durango!! I'm ba-a-a-a-ack!

[Edit: changed "5 miles" to "50 miles"

Hey, Patty: Wouldn't it be nice to have a dealer within FIVE miles?! I have to drive 300 round trip. Congrats on the 2014 Spyder. You're going to LOVE it.

The Dark Side will entice all of us from time to time. I was looking at triked wings for some strange reason beyond my comprehension. I finally laid down till the feeling passed and then went to my friendly Spyder dealer and ordered a 14 RT-S. Did I mention the color is yellow? So enjoy the new tryke and the new found light!;)
