Post here if you have over 5000 miles, not kilometers on your Spyder

[Spyder#353]

Hi Lamont
On my 08 I have over 22,000 miles. That means I need a 5k,10k,15k and 20k pin. For my RT I have over 16,000 miles I need a pin for 5,10,15k. If you get the pins made, will I get a discount for volume? :dontknow::roflblack:

Since I got my spyder a the beginning of September ive just hit the 9000 mile mark! Happy to say Ive had zero issues with the spyder!

Over 6500 here. I just got my 5K pin and I think Lamont is correct, they are sending them every quarter instead of the 4-8 weeks mentioned on the website.

Got 8350 on my RT-S, will add another 1500 during memorial day week vacation to the outer banks.

I just did my 6,000 mile maintenance and all is ready for my 2,000 mile trip to Key West, Fl. But a 4 to 5 hour job turned into a 10+ hour job, over 3 days. I also replaced my two front "Y" pipe gaskets with the Honda gaskets and I'm glad I did. When I pulled the old gaskets out the one on the right was showing signs of a small leak.

.My husband and I bought our Spyder RT- S April 16th 2011.hyea:I don't remember right off hand how long it took to put the first 5000 miles on it, but I took the picture of the odometer and of my husband on it , sent it in and got the 5k pin pretty quick. I was so excited when we made 10,000 miles one year later on April 15th I took the pictures and got ready to email it when I realized next pin is 25k!pps:

5700 miles since June, 2011...

Now I gotta send for my pin!

Rolled mine over 15,000miles the same day I hit a deer. Should be 25,000 by the end of the season this year.

Just went over 30,000 today. I have had my spyder since June 2008.
But I have had it in the shop a few months at a time for some repairs.

Ive got just under 12K before I had to take a break.

Hopefully Ill be back on in a couple months and start rackin em up again.

BTW, I believe I did recieve my 5K pin from BRP after took it in for its first service. I believe thats how thay are keeping track of those pins, so if your a do it yourselfer, they may not be recording your mileage....????:dontknow:

What does the 6k service consist of? I have gotten 2 different explanations from spyder dealers here in Atlanta

What did they do at 6k service

Its safe to assume this is a joke right? I'm a newbie (never had a bike) and considering a spyder, but I am very hesitant to spend $30K on something which I am not confident could last 7-10yrs for 100K miles. And in my research, I've yet to see a majority of folks who have 75K+ miles. I would think after 4 yrs or so of these being on the market there should be a plethora of individuals in this category, yet I'm not seeing it, which leads me to believe these bikes must die/crap out well before then. Can someone prove me wrong? I really want to buy one of these bikes but I cant justify it in my mind unless I can see some kind of substantial evidence/proof that my long term hopes of getting 7-10 yrs or 100K out of these are true or just wishful unrealistic thinking on my part...
