Buying a new 2013 ST-S

[Fat Crip]

So I've just ordered a brand new, still in the crate, 2013 ST-S; what should I be asking the dealer to attend to? Is there somewhere here that lists the recalls and common faults?

Here's the thing..!!

all recalls and updates will or should be done before delivery. They should be logged to the vin#. And you can have that checked. Other than that read the manual cover to cover watch the video practice and enjoy..congratulations..!! :clap:

I have a 2013 STS also, you're gonna love it! :thumbup:

As said, your dealer "should" have all the latest little items done before you pick it up.

:congrats: on your new ryde. :cheers: to many miles and smiles. :thumbup::thumbup:

It's the 'should have' thing that gets me. My dealer is 400 miles away and popping back in for a quick check isn't on, so I want to be able to say 'have you done x, y & z?' Before he sends it up here.

I have read a couple of your threads

I understand you are disabled and about to get a Spyder 2013 ST-S

Here are a couple of links you may find useful

www.nabd.org.uk

Not sure if your aware we have a UK Website for all Spyder Owners

www.ukspyderweb.com

This is a great site I have been using this as well as the UK once since I purchased my Spyder RT-S SE5 in Dec 2010

As it'll not be long now, I'll be reading that lot a few times! Thanks for that. It is a bit of an issue for that, given my disability, I was unable to take a test ryde! I did toy with the idea of getting a run as a pillion, but the nearest dealer is 250 miles away and the only one that would do the adaptations is over 400! So, in effect, I'm ordering on line!

I've contacted NABD about the adaptations, but, to be honest, they seem more interested in adapting bikes or building horrendous car based trikes! I'm a member, so I've asked for a grant application pack, but I'm not convinced that they will help me... we'll see!

I've also registered with the UK site, but it's not exactly as busy as here... and it doesn't appear to be on TapaTalk! Still, I'll stick with it
