Love the spyder RT.
Had to take it in last evening for service today, wife goes: driveway feels empty without our spyder

Yes, yes, yes!
I love my Spyder! I bought mine used so I'm guessing all the kinks were out when I got it cause I haven't had any problems with it. And if I do, I would still buy another one. I reallllyyyy want an RT but finances won't allow it.

Sometimes we talk about the "problems", but I think the vast majority of Spyder owners are happy campers. We have a lot of potential buyers lurking on SpyderTalk...so it would be good to have a simple poll on Spyder ownership...by Spyder owners to help give perspective.
Test drove at Americade 2010 and was hooked. When the incentive flier came in the mail I bought the RT SM5. I've had some issues and all were taken care of under warranty. My dealer's service is awesome. The safety factor played a big role in purchasing my Spyder after having been sideswiped by a Lincoln on my other ride. Have Approx. 11000 miles on it and my ultimate goal is to ride to Alaska. The best purchase I have made in years.
