• 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.

Awesome man, looks great in the garage and weather should be great for riding today! I might just sneak my wifes bike out for a few miles myself ;)

Bob, she is not going? We're planning to take the trike and the 9 (kids are also included) thru the back roads of Parrish, Lakewood Ranch, Manatee Ave all way to the beach and grab a bite in St. Armands Circle. It is a very nice ride and she will have a good taste of how to handle the Spyder. I'll tell you man, riding back from Clearwater was a blast! Is your wife already riding?
Give me a jingle on my cell 941.822.1100 if you want to join us.
Take care!

what to buy

Hello, I'm new here and would like to say that I'm currently looking to surprise my wife with a spyder. I do not know anything about the Can-Am and I'm looking forward to learn from all of you.
Right now I'm looking at a used one, have to include my beloved 1500 Vulcan Nomad on the deal so stealership will be my only option. Market is soft right now in my area for "by owner" sale.
Thoughts are welcome! I'm looking at the most basic model for now.
Thanks!

In June I traded my much loved 07 Wing for an RT. The decision was gradual over a two year period of wondering if I could pick up the Wing and also what a small amount of sand in the road could do to me. After 35 motorcycles I have made the switch to something that has caused total obsession. Apart from the fact that I am mobbed everywhere I go, that people can't keep their hands off of my Spyder, that questions about it range from the bizarre to the ridiculous, that after 46 years of biking on just about anything with two wheels and having covered this continent from Mexico to Alaska, I can honestly say "Thank you Lord" for this contraption. I know that there are many machines out there worthy of accolades of durability, beauty, sound etc, but my Spyder with my questionable knees and desire to drive the safest motorcycle ever built keeps me pumped up. I watched a trike go over while manuvering at about 15 MPH and decided against triking my Wing. I have friends that have turned their attention away from biking due to their age or fear of an accident-pitiful. I don't want to do that. In conclusion, this ain't a car minus a tire or a motorcycle plus a tire. It is a whole new way of traveling.

I always seem to want to carry stuff so an RT was more suited for me. Good luck shopping.​

Man I'd love to but i'm stuck in the office today! Thats a great ride though, we will definitely have to get together and take the girls out on their spyders soon. I told Nicole about our talk and how you got your wife one the next week and she thought that was awesome.
 
Folks, the wife love it! She is ready to travel long distances, she said... We are already planning another day tomorrow. She is very confident and the only problem we have now is the kids fighting to go on the Spyder...
Pictures of the ride are uploading on photobucket... I'll post them as soon as they are ready.
Best money ever spent! The Spyder is awesome! I still prefer to ride on my 9:yes: Can't beat the power!
