So, how fast can a spyder go and safely make a sharp right turn at an intersection?

I am by no means an expert. We have only had the Spyder (2013 STS) for a couple of months. My GF rides it mostly. She has put close to 5000km on it in about 2 months. I still ride my Goldwing. Whenever I take the Spyder for a run I immediately go in Snowmobile Mode. I've been riding sleds my entire life. I call the Spyder a Road Sled. I love taking it and running through the corners. It's nothing like 2 wheels. It won't corner as fast as some bikes for sure, but it comes close in some cases. Enjoy it for what it is. I sure do when she lets me ride it.

Thanks for the advice on this thread and others. I have been riding about a month with 1K miles.

To me the muscles pulling seem to have more fine tuning ability than pushing. I feel much more confident pulling now, no over steer back again. Seems much more control pulling.

Just did a google search and saw studies showing pulling strength is higher than pushing strength, so that could have something to do with it as well in maintaining a smooth turn.

It will go faster than most will dare.

If the "nanny" kicks in, you are trying to over ride the machine. It does not like that.
