Trike kit is made by California Side Car, hence the CSC on the fenders.

CSC makes some really nice stuff... if that's what you want. :thumbup:

That they do.

I know what I've had more than enough of.

And, that's a fact.

Yup BRP :lecturef_smilie:

One and done.

[FONT=&quot]Looks nice. $25,199.00 for the bike $8,090.00 for the trike kit, then a couple of thousand minimum for the installation adds up to about $35,289.00. Too rich for my blood and way too much to have to deal with this. [/FONT]​

At least they actually do recalls.

Over 50K invested in a Spyder that's been a PITA service and repair money pit.

I'm thinking an Indian trike the way I would want it would essentially cost the same.

And, thanks for all the recall data.

 

[ARtraveler]

You just gotta keep shoving those Indian's in my face. :roflblack::roflblack:

I am still liking (can I say it again?) the Crème/Green Roadmaster. Can I get a dealer up here? Please? Please? My only concern is how long those leather accessories are going to look pretty. One ad that is currently showing for another product shows the saddlebags at about two years old--not pretty. However, I used to sell leather goods and know just a little about leather care. :thumbup:

I have to admit that I am not a big fan of the CSC version. To much like the HD Triglide--which I do not like for many reasons. I will just point out two--ergos, and vastly inflated prices here in AK.

:bbq::bbq::bbq:

 

[Bob Denman]

I like the Red/Cream combo... :thumbup:


Thankfully I can't hold something like that up anymore, or I'd be in a TON of trouble! :shocked:

 

[ARtraveler]

I like the Red/Creme combo... :thumbup:

Red/Crème would be my second choice. The floor height of the seat is "25 inches" if I recall properly. :yes:

 

[Jeriatric]

Proper care

Like you said.

If it's properly cared for it'll likely serve you well. :thumbup:



I'm biting my tongue not to go there.......properly cared for & service:gaah:

 

[Bob Denman]

Soooo.... What color will it be? :dontknow:

 

[ARtraveler]

Soooo.... What color will it be? :dontknow:

You already know my preference. We know your preference Bob. Jerbear?

Maybe we should get together and try to get a deal on three? :thumbup:

 

[Jeriatric]

Yup, I may be OLD but the reading comprehension is holding its own.....lol

At least they actually do recalls.

And, truth be known. None of them amounted to a hill of beans.

Unlike the one BRP was forced to issue over burning Spyders.

 

[Jeriatric]

Color

Soooo.... What color will it be? :dontknow:

Really like that matte silver. Had one been available I'd have gone that way rather than black on the one I have. Time will tell, and for the foreseeable future I'll continue to drop a thousand or more at a time in keeping the Spyder going......if keeping it going is even possible. A can of Raid would be less costly - for sure.

:shocked: Over $50k!!!
that think would have hit the auction block long ago if it were mine. I hope my 14 stays reliable as I haven't had a problem out of it. Now where's some wood to knock on?
