What did you do to your Spyder today?

[Dasmoeturhead]

So far nothing today. Getting ready though for a short ride around the area.
Yesterday my Spyders odometer rolled over to 8000 miles. Bought it new 21 July 2023. Considering I've never been further than maybe 80 miles from home , that's a lot of mountain riding. Pulled into the VFW to celebrate. Lol
Cheers

I have a feel'n that if my Honda TRIKE ever starts to give me any problem, my next trike will be a spyder..(dealer 3 miles away from home) . Instead of buying another Honda (closest dealer 25 miles away) and then have'n it triked out again (closest dealer 125+ miles away)

Took a 100 mile hauling a$$ ride up the "Snake" TN hwy 421 to Mountain City, TN, Damascus VA, Shady Valley TN and back to Bristol TN . Freaking awesome ride. Wx was 72° & sunny. I was a bit cool when I got to the Shady Valley country store and cured the Cold fingers with a stout cup of coffee.
At one point in the ride going up the mountain on a tight curve I lifted the inside wheel at least 6 inches. I've done it before but not that much. I'm getting used to it I guess because I never even slowed down. After all there was a photographer there taking pictures on the turn. Lol ;-)>

Not a bad idea Ronnie. Like riding on a cloud. I doubt your RoadSmith will ever die, you give it such TLC.

Not enough Spyder post here, so I'll chime in! Mine is a 21 RTL, have 22K on it. Super fun to ride. Also have a 24 Freewheeler with 7K. Also fun to ride. The Spyder has a fair amount of upgrades, LED lights, Russell seat, Ultra sway bar, bunch of stuff from Lamonster. My only real complaint about the Spyder, is dealer support. Not a lot of dealers out there if you like to travel. Fuel range is also an issue, in my opinion.

Good show! Like to something about the Spyder, the good, the bad, the ugly.
