Spider repair update

[Cavman]

It happened again Saturday night when leaving that farewell event at the hotel and again this morning at home.

I sent an email to the dealer a while ago letting them know about the warning light coming on. This after three tries for fixing the clutch system.

I'm thinking for taking the Spyder to Kevin at Cowtown to see what he can make of my problem? I talked to him three weeks ago when I was on my way to Front Sight in NV.

Now that I have had my Spyder home for a few days, I have some new discoveries. After I picked up the Spyder in September, my Gorilla alarm didn't work anymore. So, at my expense, I replaced it with another one.
After the last repair, I noticed that the alarm indicator light glows weakly. It's not supposed to do that when it's not armed. It would blink when I armed it. But the key fob unit would only work when I was next to the bike. Now it's not working at all. I can't get the alarm to arm. Another killed alarm by the dealer? :banghead:

Driving around the last couple of days, I noticed that the radio does not increase in volume as it use to do when under way. I guess they mucked that up too?

I got on the dealer's website in their contact section and sent them a note about the transmission light warning going off several times. They acknowledged the note but I'm still waiting for a reply.

I will pull the Tupperware off to try and see what is going on with the alarm? Also to see if the tech 're-wired' anything again?

On my way to SpyderFest I stopped in at Cowtown and met and talked to Kevin their Guru Tech. He said if it was a catastrophic failure of the clutch system, they would have to change out the transmission cooler (radiator) because of debris. That explained it better for me and makes sense.

It's been a week since I got an acknowledgement of my contact from Freedom Power Sports in Kennesaw and I have heard not one word from them?
I have had the transmission light come on six times so far. I checked the oil level yesterday and it was fine.

Looks like I will have to purchase a third alarm system? The guys on SpyderMates were talking about another brand that does more than the Gorilla units I bought. I will check into them.
