i own the semi auto spyder no hand clutch just push button shifting and if you are lazy it will downshift for you at stoplights. it has good power and is a blast. you can normally see me at QSL in Colerain on Thursday nights. mine was 18000.00 when they first came out but compared to a 30000. goldwing trike i think they are worth the money..they even have a touring version out for 2010.
