touring brp seat yet anyone?

[hawkiii]

follow up on seat order

I talked to my parts guy today, my passenger footpeg extensions will be arriving 5-27 and the touring seat on 6-3. He has never failed me before so I trust his dates to be good. Can't wait to get these installed and get my wife out on a ride.

I am still working my way up to buying a Spyder, but I have to admit that y'all are not giving me the warm fuzzies about dealing with brp and the dealer network. Maybe I have been lucky, but, with the exception of one lemon BMW, I have ridden Hondas almost exclusively and have never had a problem with any of their bikes or dealers. I just want to ride--not fight with the manufacturer or dealers.

With any new model - especially one as unique as the Spyder - there are bound to be issues in the first 1-3 years of production. To expect no problems is unrealistic. Most don't post out here on a daily basis "Hey, my Spyder ran GREAT today and had no problems" because that is what we paid for and expect - so it stands to reason you'll hear more about problems than non-problems.

The number of people with problems is pretty minimal in the big picture. Other than a steering issue, mine has been just fine. I'm still keeping an eye on it.

I would buy again without hesitation.

Robbs is a local dealer for me as well. I called them today asking about the new seat and windshield availability. They kindly said 2-3 weeks. Grrrr go figure.

Today is 5.27: how are the footpeg extensions?

Hey Doc, don't know yet. It's a 60 to 65 mile ride to go pick up seat and pegs so I am waiting for the seat to come in also before running down there to pick them up. I'll let you know soon.
