That is INSANE. I was on ebay the other day and saw the spring selling for $18 LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now if it were me, I'd email that Tool and tell him what a :cus: Stunod he is even to attempt to sell it like that. But then again, there could be idiots out there that would actually pay that price.

I am curious who the fool (or tool) really is . . .

Is it the buyer or the seller?

I don't see the problem with him selling this for what the market will pay. The kit is more than just a spring - has the collar to keep the spring from wandering.

Some folks aren't as handy as others - so for them $25 might be a small price to pay.

Firefly, got to hand it to you for living with the sunny side up!

I agree with Firefly. Sometime it is easier to pay someone to do the work for you than it is to do it yourself.... If you are getting a quality product and a piece of mind, then why knock it. Again, everyone bike is there their own, and they are entitled to do what they want to it. They should be able to spend their money on the mods, they want or what they are comfortable doing.

Personally, I give the guy/gal credit for offering it up for sale, just to accommodate those folks who do not have the time, or do not have the ability to do it themselves. If he/she make a couple of bucks for it. Then, good for them.

Hi Everyone,

New to spyderlovers just got mine used and would like to do the hood mod.

Can someone tell me where I can easily find the parts?

This mod works great and only cost me 50 cents! It should have been OEM! It fits perfectly down INSIDE so it's not visible like the other spring mods.

Rando,

It's funny that you mention it's not visible...how often is anyone going to be evaluating a latch mechanism anyway? I have the spring on the top piece..you on the bottom piece...they serve the same function...although my spring did cost closer to a dollar! hehe! I'll betcha it's 'springier' too!

 

[bjt]

I have gotten a few more springs that are a bit smaller diameter than the original ones I had used (and given away) and I may try to fit them inside the latch like Rando's suggestion. I will say that my original trunk spring has been working flawlessly for almost two years now. :thumbup:
