• 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. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Two more weeks!

Wow thanks for all the great info, I already feel like part of the Spyder family and I don't even have it yet! My wife tells me I am obsessed! Lol

The price I have right now is 24,999.00. So far that is the best deal I have seen..

I am pooped from the days work today and wanted to reply to several posts in this thread but I will have to try and do this weekend..

Again thank you all for the great information... The do's and Dont's are great, I read them all..

Talk to you again tomorrow :)

Are you dealing with Curtis at Louis Power Sports? That's who I dealt with on my Lava Bronze, great guy to deal with.

J.D. That's good to hear. I've been watching their pricing on eBay. I'm taking my riding course this weekend and hoping to get my endorsement sometime early next week. Then I'll give Curtis a call. I will also get a quote from the dealer closest to me, North Texas Yamaha then pick the best one.

After much discussion, my wife and I decided to wait and see what the 2013's will be like.. I'm chomping at the bits and still may not be able to wait, but who knows if I can hold out? Maybe there will be some great new additions to the new model.

Maybe better shocks? Added sway bar for better stability? Dunno... Just thought if going to spend that much money, maybe will be worth the wait to see what they produce...

On the other hand, should I wake up next weekend and say screw it I can't wait any longer, I will let u know. Lol... ( will probably be the case hahaha )

Well guys been a while since I last posted. Sorry for disappearing. Series of events in my life financially took me away from getting that 2012 lave bronze I was sure I was getting.

But hey, I am back and finances are in order.. In fact they are just so right my wife and I are going tomorrow morning to purchase our 2012 or 2013. Going to test drive both and see which we like best for the ride and then out comes the check book...

We are so excited as it was such a let down before but maybe it was for the best who knows..

Anyway, will take pics and post tomorrow once we get it home..

Good luck to you, there are still some new LB 2012 RTs out there, BTW. Glad I'm not deciding between models and years!

We rode some more!! Finally we came home after dark and cant wait till tomorrow to do it again.. We put about 80 miles on it today!!

Hello everyone,

My name is Preston (new to the forums) I will have my 2012 limited edition RT in two more weeks.. I chose the Lava Bronze color..

For the past moth I have been reading these forums and watching misc videos on Spyder rides etc.. I am sooooo excited to be apart of the Spyder world!

My wife and I sold our bikes so that we could get the Spyder. Hope to make some spydie friends and possibly meet up for a ride sometime...

:congrats: on the new Black Currant! We live in Weatherford, so it's not too far for a day trip! We're going to leave for Spyderfest on the 22nd.
Going to take our time, do some sightseeing, and spend the night somewhere along the way. Will be in S-field on the 23d. If you're going maybe we could meet somewhere along the way. If not, just let us know when you're going to be out this way. I can be reached almost any time @ 817-565-8094. Bandit :doorag:
