Got a bunch done on his Spyder yesterday and we should be ready to head out early Wednesday morning to Americade. :bigthumbsup:
Repaired Cruise Control- Turned out it had a bad can, The switch's were fine.
Installed Lamonster Hand Brake- This really turned out nice and he has a real hard brake now, He had to back it off some because it was too hard. I'm getting better at this but I'm still going to do a hydraulic setup next just for grins.
Installed No Magic Micron & 90 - That went great and sounds killer. :doorag: We did unhook the battery and let the computer reset itself. His bike had no stumble at all like mine did at first. I'll be sending back my O2 modifier seeing the Spyder seems to run just fine without it.
Wrap Pipe with Exhaust Wrap- I did this on mine and it helps keep the heat down and it looks better to see the wrap instead of the burn mark where the pipe makes a tun. Well worth the effort.

Made Hidden Key- This is not his key but we did the same thing to it. We just leave our key in the Spyder seeing most folks have no idea that it's a key. I even had a dealer think it was some sort of steering dampener. ;D
Installed Chrome Kewlmetal Spyder Web- This really looks good in chrome, better than I thought it would. :bigthumbsup:
Repaired Bungees on Seat Cowl- No pictures of that but the factory bungees are a joke. Two of them were broke just like on mine. I have my own way of fixing this problem. This is what it looks like on my Spyder and we did the same thing on Ron's Spyder. I just crimp one end to the tabs on the cowl and then run some screws in the seat pan and run the other end of the bungee to the screws. It hold better than the stock bungees and it's easier to get off when you want to and I don't think they will ever break like the stock ones do.
I was able to do one thing to my Spyder. I added a riding buddy. ;D :spyder:
All and all it was a very productive day. :bigthumbsup:
