How many of us are still riding two wheel motorcyles?

[Chupaca]

Hummmmmm..!

Had many vehicles but the last in a line of bikes was a custom sports wing...then retired from bikes all together. Not because of any issues but time to ryde. The wife insisted we need another bike but I said if we get one it will be a spyder....she bought us one The RS Sm5 and we have never looked back or miss two wheeling. Sadly whenever one of us gives out (if me no problem) if the "Jag" and I can't find another RS or the likes....I'll be done...will have to motorize a walker..:roflblack::roflblack:

The Spyder has become the better half's primary ride.

[Gunner3773]

Traded in my Valkyrie Interstate for the 2015 RT LTD, but still have the Aero 750 for buzzing around town when I am riding by myself. The wife encourages me to ride the Aero when I am one-up because the Spyder is meant for "two." LOL

I'm on my third Spyder since 2008, but can't give up two wheels. Still have my 1997 Valkyrie and a CSC Cyclone.

Riding a BMW f800gs and a Yamaha t-max scooter along with the Spyder RT-S

 

[asp125]

In the stable currently:

My Thruxton 900


My Street Triple R


Her FZ6R


I still want to get a sports tourer like a VFR 800, or an ADV bike like the BMW / Triumph 800's

 

[Bfromla]

:thumbup: Yes I kept my '06 Yamaha RoadStar 1700S & alternate every 3rd tank of gas (3tanks on Spyder to 1 tank on star) :yes: Helps keep me familiar with forward controls & a clutch, I let it sit like the first 10 months & was surprised how much I almost forgot. :sour::lecturef_smilie: Not gonna let that happen after all I've been through & thank the LORD :bowdown::bowdown:
I can still do nojoke (read my profile info 4details) so I'm happy to enjoy, plus it's good to have the beginnings of a motorcycle stable:roflblack::roflblack: "Collection"

Between 2 Wheelers as far as owning goes atm, but similarly to PistonBlown, I have been riding & will return to/continue riding 2 wheelers on 'the roads less travelled' we have out here.... something we've got a helluva lot of Down Under!! There again, if BRP would only release something better suited; maybe a touch narrower, with a fair bit more ground clearance, capable of running better tires & drive systems suitable for on/off road tracks, & with a bunch more low revs poke/gearing, then I just might be tempted into trying some 'reverse trike off roading'?!? As it is, my 2013 RT Spyder sees a fair bit of good dirt & gravel roads, as well as thousands of miles of chip-seal black top!! But for the real 'off the beaten track' stuff, atm I'm back on 2 wheels for at least one day most weeks! :thumbup:

Would anyone else be interested in an 'Adventure Spyder'? Maybe a production version of that yellow off-road concept Spyder that's hit the boards every once in a while? Whaddaya reckon??

Yep you've got A LOT of those sorts of roads When I was over there I had a Honda CR250 which wasn't really up to distance riding. Did get me around quite a bit but even so I never managed to get out of NSW.

The problem I've tended to find on the Spyder is when you hit hills on the gravel road, the back wheel struggles for traction and that causes nanny to keep stepping in when I rather she didn't. Particularly a problem when you get those horizontal bands or bad grading at it causes the back wheel to jump and nanny hates that.

Spyder is our 1st luxury bike and wife's "I feel more comfortable on 3 wheels". I still have a Honda NT700V doing the workhorse miles back and forth to work. 172K miles in 5 yrs, 8 months of ownership

 

[jaherbst]

BMW R1200R LC Roadster, Yamaha WR250R just to let me know on occasion how easy and nice the Spyder is.

I have had many 2 wheelers over the years. Kawasaki Voyager, Honda Goldwing, Yamaha Tour Deluxe, Yamaha Venture. Currently have a 2011 Victory Vision but hardly ride it anymore after getting the RT.
