Anyone out 100k or more on a single spyder. If so what model and clutch. If you could also let me know of any problems you've had along the way. Feel free to list anything 50k+ as well.

 

[ARtraveler]

You are talking miles, right? There are at least a couple 50K and 100K milers on individual :ani29:'s on here. They will probably speak up.

You drive it like it's stolen or are you fairly conservative most the time? What mileage did you replace the engines and the clutch? My 2010 rs sm5 is out of warranty now so I wanna get an idea of when it will be time for a major repair.

or are you fairly conservative most the time?

:yikes: Doc's only got one way to use the throttle; like it was a light switch! :2thumbs:

Somewhere in between: name-it "fairly sporty..."
For your Spyder RS longevity: 35K valves clearance check; 50K: front/back sprocket and belt replace; up to date with ALL BRP bulletins. Plus the regular maintenance in the book.
Clutch: at first slippage, replace-it.

Doc is the exception rather than the rule.
