She's on display now at the Rockingham Track, Salem NH motorcycle show

You're a shoe in for a trophy. BumbleBee entered her RT in a show that was mostly Harleys, and the voters were mostly Harley owners, and still got second place. Best of luck to you!!:doorag:

Some detail of the lower part of the posterboard I made:
(Yeah I know most of the specs are from an RS, but no one at this show would know the difference!)

I will post pictures... soon. (Or pichers):roflblack:

But to be honest, i'm not sure that the location was all that great for where they had me put the bike. I got the impression from a few people i talked to that they thought _I_ was a dealer or representing BRP. One lady (with her husband) I had to emphatically say... "NO, No NO, I'm purely here to show the bike as static contest. I dont represent BRP or any dealer nor do I want to sell it."

That seems to be an interesting phenomenon with putting the Spyder in shows. I have also had people ask me if my Spyder was for sale many times already.

One time I actually thought about telling someone I would sell it for $30K. If they bought it I would go get a brand new one and start over on the mods. :roflblack:

:congrats:

Just out of curiosity, which class did they put you in? That always seems to be an issue for the shows I have gone to. :dontknow: Many just end up putting the Spyder in with the trikes.

 

[Sopher]

The class was "Three Wheel"; aka trikes.

Is your digital dashboard display mod a custom or COTS?

Nice!!!:2thumbs:

Maybe I should do the same to make up with my Spyder-payments...

 

[Sopher]

Do a search on here on Spyderlovers for 12v digital volt meter.

Thank you all!:firstplace:

Although it was a fun experience, I did decide not to enter into the next show in two weeks at the Seaport World Trade Center in Boston, promoted by the same company. And the ONLY reason is; I know the area very very well. I used to work in that part of Boston for a few years.
Parking and the lack of open areas to move a truck and trailer can be a real pain. It's what take the fun out of showing a bike. I doubt the wether will be kind to allow me to ride it in. New England weather can be very brutal.

I may do their show in Wilmington MA, which is just up the road from me.

Rockingham in Salem NH on the otherhand, was a breeze with the acres of open free parking.
