Got to tool around town in this today...

[FocusDave01]

dropped my bike off this morning to get the break in maintence off at middletown. aaron threw me the keys to this beast. ill tell you what this is a mad head turner..even cops double taked at it...had it parked at my work people stop to take pictures lol..i felt like a celebrity today...actually still have it casue of the rain didnt want to ride my bike back in this shit of weather...taking her back tomorrow tho...doesnt handle real well but its a good city cruiser and has a good exhaust tone to it. i thought they where automatic (saw one at bike night) but this one was a 5speed. had to get used to no break on the right hand..its only breaking control is right foot.. good times tho!!

wow, that thing is a beast... more like a snowmobile with wheels...sounds like fun though

[NightRider]

Awesome. I've read a few articles on them. I heard they aren't all that fast, and like you said...not much of a handler. However, i think riding around on one could be pretty fun. Definitely wouldn't own one, but definitely could have some fun on that.

Lucky bastard

Exhaust note compliments of Rotax 990cc V-twin. They come in Auto and 5spd.

[FocusDave01]

finally figured out how to get it in reverse lol after you pull the reverse switch u have to kick it down into "the magical gear the only appears upon hitting reverse lol"

Dealer in town here picked up the Spyder line last season. Salesman did some burnouts in the parking lot on his, then let Baby Fonz sit on it. Sound is very nische V rumble. They even have a red one now..........

[warpspeed]

I bet those things could do some sweet donuts.......does it have enough power to wheelie or is it pretty heavy up front?? I've never looked at one really close.

Haha. I'm gonna go out on a limb here, and say there's no way that thing can do a wheelie. Just look at it.

[cmoosego]

I bet it'd do some interesting endos tho.....

[cmoosego]

Nice back junk ya got going there dave......

[FocusDave01]

yeah they actually have sensors n them i read that if you try to do wheelies and what not it will auto tone the motor down so the all 3 wheels stay on the ground at all times lol...

[kawi kid]

i would rock one for sure!!!! guy in town here has one and you always see him nearly causing accidents from people staring
