New to Spyders.

[Doc45]

After many years of riding Harleys, my hips and knees told me I need to do something different. Never been that much of a fan of Harley trikes so I started looking at Spyders. After looking at this forum for several weeks and reading all of your posts, you guys (girls too), talked me into a 2012 RTS. Hope to pick it up be the end of the week. I got the 2012 'cause the dealer could sell it a LOT less the a 2013.
Thanks for helping me make up my mind on the Spyder. Hope to meet some of you on the road.

Dale.

:congrats: and now you should stand in front of a mirror and start to practice being a *Rock Star*. No matter where you go and where you park the Spyder people will seek you out for information oh and there is the staring thing also, it is a bit creepy at first then you just start to laugh about it.

Be Safe

:congrats: What color RTS did you get?

Have you heard about SpyderFest?

 

[Doc45]

Thanks for the welcome. I've already learned a lot about the workings of the trike. I've watched most of the videos you guys have posted on the mods you have made. I did most of the work on my Harleys and have been building hot rods longer than I care to remember. The first change I think I want to make is adding floorboards. Just don't think I can live with the pegs.
The color is the dark grey metal flake. Not sure of the proper name. I haven't even seen the trike yet. When I bought it, it was still in the crate. The dealer is putting it together right now and will call when it all assembled.
Again, thanks for the welcome. Dale.
