• 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.

Has anyone given their Spyder a "Name"???

We have a lot of riders out here, a lot of MC,s and I belong to both the ALR and the VFWR so mine is seen often. What I'm encountering of late is a fair amount of attention from some pretty hard core bikers who have taken notice in a positive way. For example, when out in Laughlin I had an old Harley dude sizing up my RS, came over asked a bunch of questions mostly about performance, turns to me and says 'its cute' [now I've heard this before, didn't bother me] then as he's walking away turns and replies 'but I like it'.

A few guys at Darrell's work own Harley's & Honda's and refer to our spyder as "Perverted"

we are always asked "What is it?" "Where did you get it?"
 
As I approached she smiles and asks me if this is my bike. I replied yes and she turns back to look at the RT and said that it was the "sexiest" thing she had seen in a long time.

I walked over. looked at her and then at the trike, and informed her that since I had just finished waxing the Spyder all she was seeing was a direct reflection of herself in the plastic. The first time I had actually observed someone titter. Definitely a priceless moment for me. Sure beats the standard snowmobile on wheels that I often get!;)

Why you sly old Devil! :thumbup: :clap:
 
I had to grit my teeth today when a lady said "Is that your buggy" I said Yes but It's a Spyder.

Was having coffee with a couple of my buds in walks a lady sits down at a table across from us and asks who's bike is that out there Of course I say it's mine and she tells me that it's very cute, I thanked her But also added do you know how much Grief Well I really said S**t I'm now gonna get from these two guy because you called my bike cute. She said sorry but She still thought it was cute.:banghead:
 
I get it all, mainly at work..... trike, backwards tricycle, scooter. Even heard Transformer a few times. But it doesn't bother me. I got what I wanted, and I'm not a follower.... I'm a LEADER. All of the two-wheeled folks have asked me to join this club or that club. I say, "I'm waiting on a Spyder Club to form around here". I have started to see more & more Spyders in the area. Not the "new kid" on the block anymore!:doorag:
 
Spyder Name

Does your Spyder have a name? If so what is it and why?

I call my Spyder Billie, because when I first saw her I thought of a bullet, which lead me to The Legend Billie Jean (I am showing my age, I know).

OK so my embarrassing truth is out there, what is your story/name?
 
Mine became the Green Monster because Len Damouth and Danny Farris drank a case of Monster Energy completing it!!!!!

;););)
 
I call my spyder the Grey Ghost, cause its more grey than silver to me, and I like old style comic books, just kinda boiled to the top of the frontal lobe of my jacked up mind.
 
Mine is RumbleBee! Stole it from dodge truck. Figured it was a good name since its black and yellow and has rumbles with the two bros dual exhaust.
 
My ride and forum name are synonymous "TicketBait" similar to jailbait:yikes:

I had that name on other car forums and
just carried it with me. And the rest of the s t o r y ...

It got to the point where I was being stalked
by TMZ and accused of things that were not true.

Life got to be hectic and I was always being

harassed, so I sold my ride to a sheikh in Dubai,

and got a spyder because it looked very inconspicuous.

and now I have my new ride and no fan club.......................life is good. My wife loves me and always is giving me two thumbs up:2thumbs:

....................She understands that it was a national Fan Club and
with that I occasionally get asked to have a picture taken with, that's OK
but please no autographs.

Adrenaline, cause that's what rushes through my body when I'm going at my speed through the twisties. :-)

License plate will read ADRNLN when I. Switch to WA.
 
Bought mine late in the day, rode her home ... next morning she had a flat and left me stranded ... so I named her Lucylle.
