What did you do to your Spyder today?

I dunno, in my experience, very few, if any, 'reputable businesses' have a 'refund on return' facility for custom ordered &/or made goods - off the shelf stuff, maybe, but not custom made or altered gear like the seat under discussion, which I'm pretty sure is the seat that @07PSDCREW referred to here:

https://www.spyderlovers.com/threads/review-of-ultimate-seat.162791/#post-1747131

And it's not as if Ultimate Seats don't spell out that custom ordered or altered seats aren't returnable/refundable in their documentation here:

https://ultimateseats.ca/extended-test-ride

Here's the specific quote:

Exceptions:​

​

The return policy does not apply to seats with custom colors, custom embroidery, seats made without logos or seats ordered without driver backrest bracket. ...​

Thanks, Peter. I wasn't aware it was a custom seat.

Hello everyone. This is my first post from Japan. I'm using translation software, so I apologize if the sentences are a bit gimmicky. I ride a 2020 RT-L. I was having trouble with the seat opening being too small. It seems to have been improved from the 2024 model. I made a replacement using the parts used in the 2024 model as a reference and installed it. The seat opening is now larger, so it's more comfortable.

Rode the wife's Spyder out for about an hour yesterday after church just to keep the battery charged up. Supposed to be rainy and cool all week here in NC, but nice this coming weekend. With Saturday being the latest sunset we will have for a while after the time change, I think I will try to schedule a small group ride somewhere. Since it's almost November, it is not too early to make our annual Fruitcake run to Southern Supreme Factory in Bear Creek.

Welcome! Don't know if I have seen anyone else post up here from Japan. Welcome to the community. Funny thing, my daughter is vacationing in Japan at this very moment. She is supposed to be flying back into the US this coming Thursday. Waiting on a report from her to decide if the wife and I will follow up. She tells me that I would really stand out there if I go to visit. Seems like there's not many 6'-2", 265 pound black guys there, LOL!

Sady, it's time to put my F3 to bed for the winter.

Changed oil, washed and detailed, rode to the gas station, dumped in 3oz of Sta-bil, then filled 'er up with 93 octane, rode home, covered her up, and tucked her in, in the garage with her favorite cover along with a couple of poison mouse baits traps by the wheels.

Put a new battery in, and went for a 100 mile ride up in Sasquatch Country on Hwy 299.

Installed a Lamonster sway bar (used the outer holes) and took it around the block. Big difference, but don't know yet if it's a "holy carp this is amazing!" level of improvement since I only put it through 5 right turns

Hmmm?? I'd heard there were places with race tracks like that!

Here in Oz, we race around Mountains.
