• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software.

Squared Away in Michigan

Morning all; Joe and Ann will be traveling to Michigan in June on Sunday the 26th, Monday 27th & Tuesday 28th.

Place is yet to be determined; most likely somewhere in Kalamazoo. Will need a head count of those desirous of having their Spyders squared away.

Please reply to me @ [email protected]; we will need 20 to 30 interested individuals. This is a golden opportunity to get your ride tuned for the summer ahead.

​Great opportunity for those that want a laser alignment to have it done by the very best in the business; June on Sunday the 26th, Monday 27th & Tuesday 28th. Will be in Kalamazoo, address provided to those that respond. Will need 10-20 people who don't want to travel to another state to have this work performed.

I would get this done but I am coming back from Australia that Tuesday. If by chance Ann and Joe will be around longer I would love to get the alignment and see them again. Please let me know. I have had both of my other Spyders done and it helps tremendously.
 
I need one done

I wish they could come sooner but June will work. My tires will have to be replaced before then but I guess the alignment can wait a month or two.
I'll wait here for more info.

Located in South Bend Indiana but have a lake house in Sturgis Michigan which is only a hour from Kalamazoo.

Thanks,

Kevin

Count me in for June in Kalamazoo. 2012 RT SE5
I can come any day, given some lead time.

I'll show up just to see everyone. Don't need an alignment again just yet. If you can't find a good place in Kalamazoo, let me know.... They can use my shop in Battle Creek. Plenty of room, parking, can do the work inside and good BBQ just down the road. I'd help anyone with oil changes or other maintenance or installs as well.

Hey!

We love seeing everyone! What's a 3 day ride? Three days of bliss! We might have to lead a ride to Tony's I75 restaurant in birch run. 1 pound bacon sandwiches! They add a pound of bacon to the baconcheeseburgers! So good!

What is the average cost Al for the lazer alignment and any other tuning you may recommend ??

Alignment is $130.00, Joe and Ann also provide other services if desired, here is some additional information: We do all kinds of mods and farkles. We are dealers for TRIC LED, Spyderpops, Baja Ron, pitbull, lamonster, and just about every sponsor on Spyderlovers. That said, larger things have to be ordered and shipped to the customer, as we travel by bikes. The only tough one to do on the road is the Sway bar. We need big jacks and bigger jack stands than we can carry. If our host or client has those, we have the rest of the tools. The Spyder needs to be 24 inches up at the frame. If that is done, we do a swaybar in 1.5 to 2 hours, and my labor rate for this work is $65 an hour. The easiest way to get a quote on installation is call me or Ann. There are some jobs that if done together, allow a savings: if I have the bike apart for a high mount brake light, it is easy enough to add a flag light, or police brake light, or saddlebag lights.

Let me know what day you want to come by so I can get you scheduled in for alignment.

Thanks,

Firefly, welcome back, you've been absent for a long time!!! Thank you for the kind offer, though I don't have the nice facilities that you do you are close enough to come by and chat. BBQ sounds good, let's get together sometime before this to sample the goods and make certain they are safe for others to partake in. Give me a call 269-601-4016, would love to ride and chat with you. Al in Kazoo

Sure thing Al. Had many life changes over the past few years that have needed my attention. Now getting back to where I can spend more time on my passion for Spyders. I've always made Spyderfest.. and will never miss one.. but haven't been doing as much riding besides that. This summer that is going to change. I doubt I'll put the 15k to 20K miles a year on I was doing... but it will be more than the 5K I've done the last few summers.

We need to do some Michigan rides for sure!

If you guys need anything for the alignment gig, let me know... I can bring over jacks, tools, etc...

I have my RT all torn apart right now prepping it for Spyderfest....
 
Hi all,
I really want to come and get some work done but not sure since I am having hip replacement surgery with complications scheduled may 16th. Right now I can only ride short distances.
Any chance of doing another session in Detroit area?
 
I would like to come just for a barbecue/cookout and meet up with the Michigan folks. I could bring some of the famous Frankenmuth brats and Some Pinconning cheese.

I got it on my calendar. Not sure I will need an alignment since I had one 2 years ago but I will definitely try to get there to visit with Ann, Joe and everyone else.
