New spyder owner-Very Disappointed!!!

if you think the spyder has a lot of plastic, you should try working on a goldwing, but glad it is solved

Avoiding Future Frustration

Glad to hear you got your issues with your Spyder resolved. IMO all of us would have been honked off at the time it took had it happened to any us. To avoid future frustration with what is also IMO a design deficiency run, don't walk to the nearest Harley dealer and get a flexible valve extension, http://www.harley-davidson.com/store/valve-stem-extension, to use when checking and inflating your rear tire. I wrestled the pig a few times until I got sick of the hassle and found the answer here on SL. Be safe and enjoy your miles; they're a blast!

Picked up my ride today new front tires new gas cap windshield screws and no gas smell this spyder now runs so smooth no vibes no shake,new dash

I'm interested in knowing how long you had a "loaner" for all the down time that you had with your spyder in the shop.

I too had a shake in the front end of my 2012 RTS at 30-43 mph, new tires "fixed" my problem also, for less than 2000 miles and now it's back.
I've discovered that if I keep the psi at 20 and balanced between sides it is not as prevalent but it's still there. I have some other issues as well so I need to get it into the dealer.
