Spyder on two wheels

[gazey]

Traveling two up today came into a tight right hand corner a little hot and the right hand front came up about 10 inches :yikes:
Stayed in the air for about 5 seconds and as I straightend up it just came down smooth as silk. I have never had this happen before but most of the time I am on my own. So be a bit more careful when you are two up.
The nanny did not kick in at all but the whole thing was nice and graceful. The wheel seemed to stay in the air for ever.
Reminded me of my four wheeler days

I have been >>>>>

Riding solo I have exceded corner speeds (on known corners) that drew peg sparks from my CB-750M Nighthawk. It will take them at least as quick as the PC-800 Pacific Coast which had great lean angles!

Even the transistion over the outside of a curve onto a side street is quite smooth since I tightened up both ends. At 265lbs i load it as much as some couples two-up!

I gotta say that this did catch me a bit off guard. I have been pushing harder and harder with the Spyder and I am surprised just how hard you can go into a corner. I have had the nanny cut in a fwe times making the motor pop and fart a bit so I was a little shocked when this wheel lifted. But like I said it was slow and sweet. No drift at all and felt sweet the whole time. Never felt like tipping at all. The guy on the back did freak out a bit though :yikes:
