• 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.

Graphics Packages...

A question: do any of you know somebody, preferably in central Indiana, capable of doing a perfecto installation of a graphics package on a Spyder?
A hole in my lower spine (souvenir of Vietnam) and hereditary tremulitis keep me from doing this myself. Any suggestion appreciated. Thank you!:spyder:;)
 
Don't know anyone

Is it a package that covers the entire bike? I put some graphics on my bike when it was red, they didn't cover the whole bike though. It really isn't too difficult if you can find someone with lots of patience, trying to keep the air bubbles out is the only difficult part as long as the panels are first cleaned with rubbing alcohol.
 
I think you could use any good window tint place. It's the same type of application. Also, most GOOD body shops have someone on staff that's good with film/decal application. Good Luck
 
Thanks...

Thanks, Amanda and Frank3...

Those were things I hadn't considered. FYI...the graphics package I settled on is called "True Fire", from Spiralus Designs. It's gorgeous...costs about $280, as I recall.:f_spider:

I had some custom stuff done by Spiralus Designs, but it did not cover the entire bike. It took some time but I got it on without any air pockets.
 
To my delight...I didn't have to look far. Turns out we have a quality shop right here in Flora, that does great work:

Eagle Customs, 713 E. Columbia Street, Flora. Phone 574-967-4150...

I showed Doug the Spiralus Designs "True Flame" design I'm purchasing. He said he could do that, including prep, for about 200 bucks. He asks that the vehicle be brought in the night before, so he can wash and prep it properly, before laying on the Mylar. FYI, folks...:2thumbs:
 
Graphics Packages

:yes: Peter @ Spyderdetailing.com did my package for me, its SPY-01 with modifications. Peter printed last week and cut it this weekend. In the mail on Monday. :D I'll also be doing Pics and maybe a small video. So far he seems to be a great person to by from, very reasonable. Local quoted me $1200.00, Peter is a lot less. He also has How To video's on his site to help.
 
Takes 13 business days from CA to US- tracking is impossible. Peter has been very helpful. Hoping I get mine today but no way to know...:gaah:

Graphics from Canada

Yes, I wore hole in the garage floor waiting for the package. It took 2 weeks for it to arrive. It took me 14 hours to install, but, I was, a total novice. Peter was helpful and when I contacted the USPS concerning the package they told me that US Customs was the delay. Good luck I hope you get it today. You will be impressed with the quality. I was told by Peter to lay out the graphics under a heat lamp, (not to close), this will staighten them out.
 
graphics

a place in evansville called, I think, sign graphics..I believe that is the same place that does body wraps with clear.:spyder2:
 
Dang it!:gaah:Just when I had my mind set on a certain graphics package, the manufacturer brings out an even nicer one...:yikes:
 
Finally DONE

Looks GREAT 1VENOM!

Goes on easy- a few minor glitches and I agree- Peter was both helpful and supportive.:thumbup:

Where did you get the front fender reflectors? (or are they additional lighting?)
