• 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.

I was thinking....

I know, a very dangerous undertaking...

But if you had to give just one thing, just one single aspect about your Spyder that you appreciate, enjoy, or like the most, what would it be?

I don't think a poll would work here because there are probably too many options.

I predict your answers will be like Lay's Potato Chips. You won't be able to give just one thing. But you are welcome to prove me wrong on this.

I'll save my answer until some others have a chance to give theirs.
 
I've met lots of new people since I've bought it, both here on-line, but also my neighbors and strangers, so the meeting people aspect of it. Everything else I knew when I got it, so there were no surprises there. When I bought it I knew people would probably notice it, but I didn't think that I would meet lots of people.
 
I'm guessing the smile on my daughter's face the first time she gets to sit on the Spyder. (which will be in about 48 hrs when she comes to visit). :D

You're right. . .. but all of the things I love about our Spyders hinges on one thing. . . and that is STABILITY. :2thumbs:
I've been off 2 wheels for 30 years, but the stability of the Spyder (in addition to the rest of the bag of chips) is the one thing that made it possible.:clap:
There are a lot of other good lookin' bikes and trikes out there but nothing (in our price range) can touch a Spyder when it comes to STABILITY. :firstplace:

now where's the rest of my chips . . .

I would have to say its the group of people that I have met while owning/ryding the Spyders. I belong to Hayabusa/GSXR/Quad forums and there isnt anywhere near the passion that the owners show and feel compared to Spyderlovers. So, a thumbs up to all of you on here.:2thumbs::2thumbs::2thumbs::2thumbs::2thumbs::2thumbs:
 
In regards to the SPyder itself, I like the fact that it looks like it's going fast while standing still...and that big fat back tire:D

the aspect i appreciate the most that's not physically the Spyder is this board/group. It's the best place to make friends, do research, get questions answered, and get results when you need them.:thumbup:
 
:ohyea:
The fact that i can ride all winter and not worry about sand/salt/gravel/

and dead Raccoons on the road.
 
How massively it has expanded my horizons...especially with folks, no matter their riding/driving passions, when we meet somewhere...:2thumbs:
 
I would say I like it because it's like nothing else I've ever owned and it still puts a smile on my face every time I ride it. :D
 
Spydee got my kneeze back in the breeze and I can keep up with the best of them.:D

Also found a new circle of friends that grows bigger all the time.
 
I agree with Vaughn & Cat it’s the stability for me plus like Yazz said it put my knees back in the breeze. I could never convince my wife that a bike was a good thing, but when I took her to Cowtown and sat her on the RT she agreed to try it with me. We are completely comfortable on the Spyder and never worry about anything but the ride and the scenery.

The fact that even after a really bad day, all I have to do is sit on it and everything starts to melt away, then after even the shortest of rides, I'm ready to start all over again. Even my family says that it makes me a nice person. :roflblack:
 
How about FWRY: Fellowship, the Wow factor, the Ryde, and the Y-Factor.

I tried to spell freeway but ran out of words. Anybody wanna try?
 
Ron, first of all, Stop Thinking...LOL

Maybe that is one of the best things about the Spyder, clearing your mind when you ride. Being able to just enjoy where you are going and not really thinking about all the troubles of the world.
 
I must say, only a few had to go back for more chips, though many admit it's a big bag with the Spyder. And the answers are nothing like I expected.

I'm a nuts and bolts guy so I was thinking along mechanical lines. Handling, acceleration, or physical apperance.

While some have mentioned these, the feeling I get is more experiencial.

I'm not sure if we're talking about a machine or a mental state. Maybe it's the same thing.

Maybe a blend of the 3 F's is the concenses so far.

Freedom, Fun and Friendship, not necessarily in that order.

This group never ceases to amaze me.
