• 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.

    Riding suits?

    I ride (my sport bikes) in full race leathers and a full face Sheoi helmet, race boots, and gloves. My skin is worth the money. I got an A* jacket on Craigslist, guy bought it for his girlfriend but she didn't want to ride, so $200 vs $450. The boots were $300, but this was clearance. Gloves...

    What to look for when buying a used Spyder (2012)?

    Exactly. And, I didn't negotiate at all, that was his price. My top end was 10k, so I got really lucky. I figured I would be buying an rs-s for that price. I didn't think I would even get one this year. I just looked at an absolutely mint gsxr750 on Saturday and had planned on getting that...

    What to look for when buying a used Spyder (2012)?

    The 2012 is 10k. A similar 2015 would be 20k+. (Thanks, Bob!)

    What to look for when buying a used Spyder (2012)?

    I used to have an XL1200 Sportster that could shake your teeth out of your head! If we like the Spyder, we'll upgrade in a year or two when the 2014 model comes down in price. I can't see spending as much as a new car to get a 2015. I won't have to take a loan for the 2012.

    What to look for when buying a used Spyder (2012)?

    It's craigslist, I get it. The seller is an older Chinese gentleman. He was there with his wife of 30 years. They are completely not shady. He had no problem just telling me to take it and ride away. I did ride on the back. Should there be a vibration through the passenger pegs? There was a...

    What to look for when buying a used Spyder (2012)?

    Test rode it. It's different than the 1330 engine, but at half the price, it will be fine.

    What to look for when buying a used Spyder (2012)?

    I'm on my way to go test ride it, so we'll see what happens. At 10k, I have to start wondering if proper maintenance has happened. Thank you for the advice though.

    What to look for when buying a used Spyder (2012)?

    Okay. We'll check the pressure. At 900 miles, I can't imagine what could be wrong with it. I'm getting a little too excited. I'll know tomorrow. There's the Spyder meetup right by our house in PA, in New Holland. I'd love to be able to go!

    What to look for when buying a used Spyder (2012)?

    I found a 2012 RT audio and convenience package Spyder with under 1k miles locally for a very fair price. I'm wondering what I should look for? We are going there tomorrow and if it checks out, I would like to buy it. We were going to get a leftover 2015 from imotorsports, but the 2012 is much...

    First Ride of 2016

    Same here, but on my Yamaha, since I'm still looking for a Spyder. I forgot how much fun that bike is (and how after 20 miles I had enough leaned over on the tank!) It was 63 in Lancaster County, PA. Yesterday, it was 30.

    Some questions, considering a Spyder

    The RS-S SM5 that I saw for yesterday already sold. It was a 2011 with 987 miles, passenger back rest, and a custom seat, for $10.5k. Oh well. That's the price range I'm trying to stay with. I just bought a new WRX this year and a Camaro the year before, so no 20k motorcycles. My husband is...

    Some questions, considering a Spyder

    I got rear ended twice within a month. Trust me when I tell you I can't pick up a bike. I have herniated disks. :) I love that video though! I'm around the size of that woman, so she is an inspiration.

    Some questions, considering a Spyder

    Why would age be a factor? I'm in my 30's, riding 3.5 yrs.

    Some questions, considering a Spyder

    Hello. I'm hoping some of you can answer some questions that I have. Thanks! (1) What are maintenance costs like on a Spyder? I'm considering a 2011 rs-s sm5 which just under 1000 miles. (2) Are the RS models good for all-day riding? I went on a test drive for an RT and didn't love it. I...

    insurance

    Hello. This is my first post here. I am thinking about buying an rs-s sm5 Spyder and got a quote yesterday from Dairyland and from Rider. I have three motorcycles insured with Dairyland. The coverage is in PA. I am a married homeowner, female, in my 30's, with a perfect driving record and...
