• 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.

Kathi In Louisburg

Hey Kathi here in Lousiburg Kansas........ Bob, LOVE the new Corbin Seat! Planning on a ride here real soon, this "winter" weather just won't let us ride like we'd like too.

New Spiyer owner

:spyder:Hi my name is Danny and I’m in Wichita. We just got a dealer here but I picked up a used SM from a guy and his wife in Texas. It already has HDI lights a JM radio and running lights that are very cleverly mounted to the front fender struts, so they turn with the front wheels. The front fenders have been repainted flat black so it looks great. It also has an aftermarket wind shield that will go away it's too tall and to dark, and a Corbin seat. The BRP seat back and rack and 4" extensions. I just ordered a MBRP murdered out pipe. I will add a MP3 or SM radio I am not sure about a satnav system. I have ridden motorcycles for 41 years and traded a Harley Classic for the Spyder. I got tired of holding up 840 lbs. I have only been able to ride it up and down the street a couple of runs since we are having heavy rain but so far the only thing I will have to get used to is the touchy clutch. It comes on real fast. I hope I can meet some other KS spider riders this summer. With a dealer in Wichita now I think we will be seeing more soon. :f_spider:

Hello all you Kansas Spyder Ryder's. John here, picked up a new 08 SM5 in April and I am just now getting around to finding all the forums on the net. I knew there had to be some more :spyder:in Kansas as every time I ride mine to work people tell me they keep seeing them. I think it would be great to go ride with you guys and gals sometime. I live in Belle Plaine, about 12 miles south of Wichita, but I am up to ride anywhere and share stories of these wonderful machines. Hope to see you all on the road sometime.
 
Theres 7 of us here in Waynesville, Would love to ride with you one day,, For a population of under 5000 people, I'll be we are close to the record as far as population verses Spyders, what you all think?

Hi folks,

I have a RT-S ordered. I'm from Topeka, haven't seen many in this area. I've seen a red spyder several times on Hiway 24 west of Topeka and one other in town. Ordered mine from Reno's in KC MO. Just sold a 09 Tri-Glide and still have (for sale) an 07 Ultra Classic/CSC trike. Wanted some thing a little sporty but still able to tour with. Had our demo ride the weekend before Thanksgiving, we both loved it. Don't know when we will get it, probably after the first of the year. Anyway, hope to see you on the road sometime.

Dwight,
Let me know when you are going to pick up your RT. Maybe I can meet you at Renos and ride as far as Spring Hill with you. You can take a break at my shop and even have lunch at K&M bar-b-q here in Spring Hill.

Hey guys,

Thanks for the offer to ride a bit with me. I didn't see it in time, the RT-S came in Tuesday the 22, and I rode it home on the 23rd. Nobody expected it that early. It's a good thing I rode it home Wed. because we are snowed in now. Hopefully we can meet up sometime when we actually have riding weather. Once the streets are clear I'll be out working on the 600 mile check. It's tuff just looking at it setting in the garage!

Dwight
 
yeah I know what ya mean. i bought mine late in the summer and havent been able to get in ANY riding in the last two weeks or so. It is KILLING ME!!
 
Dwight,
Congratultions on your new :spyder2: !
Let me know if you need any riding gear. Lots o folks are getting heated jackets,gloves etc. so they can ride as soon as the streets are clear and dry.

I have a Rt on order and expect to write a check for the balance today sometime. Won't take delivery till next week or when I have a clear path to my basement garage (the RTs warm home). Not aS tough as Dwight and some others, probably will trailer it home unless temp is in mid to upper 40s. My wife is from Kansas (S. of Highland) and most of her family still lives and farms there so I count myself 1/2 kansan. Looking forward to ridding with everyone. Two brother in laws out there, one with a goldwing and the other with a K series BMW. That's what really got me interested in the first place. Constantly seeing them take off on long trips. SEE YOU IN WARMER WEATHER.
 
Hey TeacherBob,

We already have Gerbring heated jacket liners but we may be interested in some new jackets and pants. We are using Tourmaster right now but they are showing their age. I looked at some of the Spyder rider suits and like the mid priced jacket and pants they have. Send me the address of your shop and maybe we can stop by sometime.

Thanks
Dwight
 
Dwight,
We are at 123 S. Main in Spring hill Ks. 66083. Love to have you stop by. Since we are primarily an internet business, I don't keep a lot of inventory in the store. We can figure out what you need and ship it to you if we don't have it in thestore.

Thanks,
Bob
 
We did it!

Hi, Bob,

We brought our new Spyder home from Reno's on Saturday.

Thanks for all your input. We'll be out soon!
