Well, I can say that this dealer did what they promised. I bought my spyder friday (9/26). They assembled it and got it road worth by monday afternoon. It was picked up by the shipper (G-Man Transport) on tuesday, and delivered to my house today at 9:55am. It was quite dusty (even in the enclosed trailer), but it was still beautiful. They included a tank of gas and a 60 day temp. tag. I had a friend come over to help me look it over for scratches and blemishes and we couldn't find any. I quickly geared up and we went on a 83 mile ride. About half were twisty country roads, and half was 4 lane hwy. I went through a range of emotions. From, "what have I done, this feels nothing like a motorcycle", to "hey, this thing takes curves pretty nicely". Overall, I must say I am pretty pleased to say the least, and very pleased with the dealer and shipper. Not sure who gives the shipping quotes on ebay, but the guy that the dealer suggested was great. It was $850 to ship to my door. The way I figured, if I had driven down to get it on my ford lightning, and an enclosed trailer, it would have cost me over $600 in gas alone. Anyway, guess I am saying, thanks for the feedback about the Texas dealer, and I will be sure to show the spyder to the local dealers that didn't want to work with me.
