Yep, another Spyder newb here. I've been lurking here and lusting after an arachnid for around 3 years and last Wed a shiny new 2015 RT Limited made a maiden voyage from it's crate to my driveway (got a very good deal considering SoFla and couldn't pass it up). Hopefully now instead of drooling all over my keyboard I can participate intelligently. I've already learned alot over the past few years reading, now its time to start applying. I'm a brand new rider in my 50's, never rode a bike before (except 2 wheels in class a few years ago to get my endorsement) so I get to learn it all on a Spyder instead of unlearning 2 wheels. It's a little scary going out and earning my wings in crazy South Florida where driving a car is dangerous, let alone a bike but I just have to be careful and whatever will be will be - YOLO. Took some convincing to get wife on board (she would NEVER let me get 2 wheels here) and now she can't wait to go out.
Already have a list of farkles (first thing ordered was the FOBO TPMS) but it will center around safety for now (LED's, etc) until I get comfy. Just wanted to say hey and hopefully you'll see me around - probably asking alot of questions from the vets here. I trust alot of what is said here even though dealer warned me to stay off the forums, lol. Here's to an awesome 2016...
