Excellent.

The offer to try out Aragog is available too.

There is another Spyder in the house
I am getting a Can-am Spyder F3S SE6
A 2017 with only 7,000km on it

Because of health reasons my Doctor has asked me to give 2 wheel riding away
So along came this Spyder, bought locally in Toowoomba
I hoping to pick it up on Thursday or Friday
Soon I will put my ST1300 up for sale
It will be sad to see it go

Enjoy the Spyder Leo!   After my first Spyder ride, I thought there would be one in my future, when I get too old for two wheels, but that ain't yet.

... Because of health reasons my Doctor has asked me to give 2 wheel riding away ...

I would have sought a second, third, fourth ... opinion.

... Soon I will put my ST1300 up for sale ...

Every cloud has a silver lining - your loss, someone's gain.

At this rate we will have to find a new name for the club!

It's terrific that we have options that allow us to keep riding once the two-wheeler becomes challenging.  I think a Spyder could be a heap of fun myself.

Thanks all. I'm excited to pull on a helmet again
It's been a while
I think a few short rides will be needed to get used to the Spider. They are very different but I know I will enjoy it
But I got a lot on next week before Robyn and I head to Darwin on the 26th in the cage

Really glad to hear you are riding again.  :runyay :hatwave :rockon

I take the video Robyn posted on FB this morning was a delivery ride.

I've invited her to 3 FB groups. 2 specifically for Spyders and Rykers, and another for 3 wheelers.

I'll do anther post for those links.
Cheers,
Gary

Also, take a look at the sway bar links on the front. From around 2013 onwards, they changed to plastic, and a few have broken. There is an aftermarket Baja-ron, metallic link for the sway bar, and also a replacement sway bar and adjustable shocks. 

Mine came fitted with all 3 so If you want to try mine to see the difference it make,s you are most welcome.

I hope to catch up with you soon.
Cheers,
Gary

Great to read you're still needing the open-air experience, Rosie.  There are a few Spyders in Toowoomba- I know a couple there who have a "his-and-hers" after he had a bad accident off a bike.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Yes Gary that would be great if you can
I have downloaded a program but haven't had time
to work it out. We are going on holidays soon and I'm running out of time. Don't think I will to get another ride on the Spyder

Thank Biggles
Gadget had sent Robyn a Facebook link to a Spyder and we have been asked to go on a ride this weekend
But we can't make it (I don't do Facebook)
