Call me John and I'll see if I can walk you through it.

Looking good. Have fun with the tear-down. The front fender guard, fender extension and trunk rack will probably pay for the bike.

You guys all know that he has one eh?, it's just that it comes in two parts,, a his and hers for now!

If you smell gas, there should be a leak.

So to help with plug removal use an 18mm thin wall socket and I use a universal as a super short extension, then crack the plugs loose, blow air in around the plug area to get rid of any dirt and then spin them out with a short piece of fuel hose that fits snugly over the end of the plug. Putting them back in is the reverse except you don't need to do the air thing. And hey, the carbs aren't all that complicated, if you've done carbs before, these are just a bit different, but not hard.

Wow!!!!!!!!!! Looks like our camera-man is back to work!!! Thanks Phil!! AWESOME!!

In my thinking,,,, watts is power consumed and and lumens is light output. Then there is a difference between reflectors and placement of light source in regards to the reflector. Further there is color temperature to be aware of, some color shines better and further than others. Put that altogether and you got me confused for sure.

Just goes to show ya, you seem to like supper as well,,,, maybe real well!

Some,,, or lately a lot,,, of people think they can get famous by posting on the internet,,,, some!!

One thought maybe to do a deep research on the Canam Spyder. I have yet to talk to a Spyder rider who says that he or she should not have done it. They are a hoot of fun and easy to deal with. Do get a 2014 or newer though, you would be happier. If you have long legs then the F3 would be the ultimate choice. Keep in mind that you do not have the same body you had when you were 40 and formed your mind on things of the future, you are getting older and things tend to change a bit quicker so plan ahead, not in reverse.

Will ask the Great Physician for a speedy recovery. Blessings!

So what time is the coffee ready?

Were there instructions included in the package? Wasn't it supposed to cover more than the cleavage? You might need a second opinion on this, looks kind of skimpy really.

Crap!!! I just seen this post, guess I would be too late iffin I leave now. Well I guess I'll have to take Marca's offer of steak for supper,,,, tube steaks that is.

Notice that Dad is doing the driving!

Never mind the MC, question is: what are you doing in Ontario without prior warning? Are we being invaded?

You had best stay in Ohio, my cost for the Spyder alone is $1200 and change, and that is CDN!!

Guess you'll have to make up your own mind, but things do change, sometimes for the better and sometimes the other way. ME? I think I would sit tight on the decision for a few months. I am quite in the same boat as we didn't ride all that much this summer. Some of that had to do with the weather, some with what ever else kept us busy, some of it deals with Marca's health. A feller wonders if the insurance cost is worth it or if the funds can be put to use somewhere else to be more effective. Yep, it's your situation and yours to decide, but for me, I figure if I would only put on a couple of thousand it would still probably be worth keeping, seeing as I already have it. Now, if I didn't have a scoot at this time, I don't think I would go to buy one,,,maybe! So, blessings in your thoughts and decision.

If you can help out, it would please my 2 daughters greatly. We have 2 daughters and they are planning a trip out to the Canadian East coast, Oct 05 to 17th. Heather has 2 great kids, 9 and 6 yrs old and Allison is single, training to be an RN and does mission work. Both daughters are in their mid 30's. Heather home schools her kids. All 4 are easy to get along with, and their two kids you will comment on for a long time. They are trying to do this on a shoe-string budget and meet some people along the way. They have their own food and bedding including mattresses, so all they are looking for is shelter, and of course it would be nice to meet the folks local. They would also like some input on places to see and visit other than tourist traps, so you can have input into this Venture even if you can't help out with lodging. Hoping to have some help from you all. Carl

Congrats to both of you. Don,,,, you best keep practicing on that 2nd gen. Soon Eileen will get used to that machine and you'll wonder what happened. You'll be looking in the rear-view to see if she's ok, but she'll be only visible if you use a pair of binoculars to look ahead. Ride safe you 2

Congrats Don & Eileen, hope you have loads of fun. Keep in mind that not all acc for a 12 will fit a 14 n up. Spyder should ride straight on it's own, if it twitches, it needs an alignment, if it doesn't track the corners properly it's needs an alignment. Lots of people don't like these machines because they get tired when riding them and that will happen if the alignment is out, and then they sell them prematurely. I made a laser setup and it works awesome. My 1330 gets just slightly less gas mileage than a V4, fact is last Sunday I got a little bit better than Saddlebum. Yes, back brakes wear fast, keep an eye on them. All that plastic, is not so bad. It takes time on a Venture as well,,, only thing is, to do an oil change there is a bit of work and time.

Darn, he's catching up again, guess I'd better plan to have another as well. Happy Birthday Dan, may you be blessed in the year ahead.

Yes, she does exist, I have seen her in person,,,, well at least I think it was her,, well maybe, just maybe the neigbour lady gives Phil instructions.

Looks good Don, hoping that Eileen falls in love with it. Tell her to ride it, ride it and then ride it some more. It's going to take a little getting used to, but once that starts there ain't no end in sight. Hope you know how to make supper, do the floors, clean the windows, make the bed, go shopping, laundry and do your regular work in-between. So where is Eileen?????? OUT RIDING!!!!

One more note: The Spyder we borrowed from Pioneer some years back, the one you rode as well, lost it's muffler shortly after starting out. Now I noticed the license plate is hanging off the one in the picture. Maybe not a good sign. And thanks guys, I don't eat as much as some as my belt is a smaller size than some others that I have met, and a MD wouldn't be so bad, I think Don might be ready for a break.
