• 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.

Visited your web site I like the custom painted bikes. My favorite was the custom painted syder RS on fire. The flames looked real.:2thumbs:
 
Passenger? I do not think so, at least it wouldn't appear so. I think it was designed to be a single rider machine. Spydergirl can tell you all about what happens to the passenger when ya take the rear fender off... it aint pretty! I'm thinkin you wouldn't want to run this machine in the rain anyway.

Yeah, you'll get pretty well drenched as a passenger in the rain with no rear fender, but it does look hot.
 
I know, brother! She's a beauty...:yes:

I'm still waiting to see "normal" "real life" photos of this thing. A video of someone actually riding it would be nice. I agree with what others said... it needs fat car tires on it. That tire on the rear is mostly wasted rubber.
 
air ride price?

i am just wanting to know why your air ride system is running $5500 and other companies are selling them for $1400? what is the diff. of them?

If I am not mistaken, his air ride is for all 3 wheels where the others are only for the rear. Hopefully he will chime in and clarify this for you though. It is not that far of a ryde for you to go check it out in person either. I definitely plan on doing that when I am able. :thumbup:

I don't think he has said much since his original post...
 
wow. very cool:2thumbs:
I might just have to check that out on our way down to the BRP Event this year :)
 
It is a very very nice looking bike on paper. You got skills. IMO my favorite spyder is still the guy on Spyderlovers and YouTube with that candy apple red "chrome" spyder. Man that shines and it's functionable !!! But nevertheless great job.

Once they get this project complete and get items online I am going to snag a few...

My wife suggested we buy a used RT and do some old school customizing to it. And since we have such a good dealership in our area (Clem's) we know we can get anything we need without any issue...

Her current thoughts/ideas...


  • This kind of windshield blacked out
  • Handlebars
  • Over-sized tires
  • Remove all the labels/tags/logos and fill in all the holes/gaps
  • Airbag system
  • Rims like these
  • Drop a new head on it...
  • Dual exhaust (One on each side of the bike)
  • (Not old school) Paint in a midnight candy apple read with black ghost flames in 3d...
 
Ok, I guess I have to be the voice of reason here. For a show bike it is indeed killer but even so there is a problem. :dontknow: I think it would look even better and meaner if instead of motorcycle profile tires he used square or car tires. There is an awful lot of waisted rubber there! Just imagine what that rear would look like with all of that tread squarely on the ground. :thumbup: Now do the same thing on the front and WOW. :2thumbs: This is all IMHO. :D

Thats what I was thinking, a set low profile high performance street tires, it still a great looking machine.:2thumbs:
