We beat the Concourse!

I hadn't realized the discussion had gone there yet...the Spyder is really in it's own category...I wouldn't put it the touring motorcycles category....touring machines yes.

I obviously would not put you down Tyler nor your experience...I would knock people's heads that did try though.

the Spyder is really in it's own category...I wouldn't put it the touring motorcycles category....touring machines yes.

But the most important question is...

Would you wave at one?

 

[Geno]

I wave at 'em all the time. Fact is, seeing a Spyder is what re-stoked my interest in open air riding after a 25-year hiatus. The 28K price tag sort of turned me away, but the next thing I saw was the FJR... It was love at first sight. In a decade or two, when two wheels are no longer an option for me, that Spyder (or whatever might be out there at that time) will be on my list.

As much or little as any other bike/open aired vehicle. In fact, I think I waved at you out in Kali.

Hi Tyler,

Would you wave at one?

Shit yeh!

:bye:

Best regards

Yeah but Mark, you waved your tongue at Tyler out in Kali.

Nothing wrong with that, I waved my tongue at Ty myself!

Now why wouldn't a Spyder be considered a Sport Touring Motorcycle. It has a Motor. It is a "cycle". And can clearly be used for Sport Touring.

I mean, heck... we consider an AE as a Sport Touring motorcycle, don't we?

(ducking and running for cover :devil: )

Just let me know when you sell your FJR and buy one...I may be able to keep up with you then...

Umm . . . maybe you didn;t notice, but those are not the site's ratings, but rather as rated by owners.

 

[FJR Bill]

I've been buying tires for several years at a large dealership that provides decent prices. My last few visits I've gotten unsolicited negative comments from the service techs concerning the Spyder. Computer complicated, a nightmare to disassemble, unusual amout of failures during warranty, a complicated beast! Every tech I've talked too sez..."stay away". But hey if it makes your juices flow...go for it. The FJR works for me.

So, is it a popularity contest? What would happen if a whole bunch of us put in reviews on the Feej.... betcha if there was enough of us, we could move it into first place!!

Forget that business Ray, I still want minutely detailed instructions on "hawt-wiring" Mary Ellen; come on Man, concentrate on the important stuff! Hubba, hubba!

That's easy, Don. You just have to plug the fuse into the constantly hot slot of the fuze box...

PS - Ray, my fuse may have been short (technically, they all are), but it turned her on and made her warm.

Wow Fred, I had to double down on my heart medications after reading that statement! Hubba, hubba!

Fred I defer to your expertise, after all, it's not size that really matters, it's how you use it. Good on ya!! The hawter Mary Ellen is, the better I like it!!

If you check the previous year, it was #1. So feel free to move it ahead.

Ray Old Buddy, I hate like Hell to have to correct you in public; but Mary Ellen always gets a minimum of 6 Hubba's. It should have read HUBBA, HUBBA, HUBBA, HUBBA, HUBBA AND HUBBA!
