[vt228]

Nothing beats the jitter more than practice....You can do it! take your time and don't be afraid of the spyder ride it in the lot I use the parking lot on sundays put cones up drove around got use to how it felt when gasing it in a turn what not to do when doing a rt turn I push down on my left foot peg and left turns left peg so I can keep strate I lean on some turns it took me 2 weeks to get used to her .so a Parking-lot time will help. she is fun to ryde and take your time with her. feel her out be one with the:spyder:

I am taking my MSC next week. Never been on a motorcycle before....but after a year of doing the research (logging onto Spyder Lovers.com everyday) I will be getting a Spyder within the month. I don't care about the jitters or anything else; everybody seems to love the ryde....I will too. Good luck.:2thumbs:

I first learned to ride on a 650 BSA, then I got a Hond750, this was in the late 70's, bought a 650 Vstar last year, rode it once and sold it. Now, I have bought a 2010 RTS, I find that I am very nervous with this bike, as the throttle is so quick, not the cable that I am used to , it will take off in a minute. After, 30 years of not riding, can I get back in the saddle, or have I spent all this money for nothing?

If I can do this anyone can. I literally started by "sneaking" 5 blocks to WalMart's parking lot..:yikes:..I logged at least 110 miles around and through and behind.and I was VERY nervous..then I adventured to Safeway...and now I have 3000 miles (in 2 months) and headed for a 2 week road trip into Canada and Glacier, MT...go!go!go! :2thumbs:

I have since ( got it in June09) put over 10,000 miles, been on a trip to Wi. and bugged around all the back roads in Mo that I can get to. Been in a REALLY heavy rain and the bike took care of me( I got stupid and was going a little to fast). Yours will too give it a little time:2thumbs: you can do it!!! If I can at 66 yrs I KNOW you can. ( Had a 76 yr old just get a RT here in Mo.) Easy as pie!!!
