Took delivery 10 days ago of a 2010 red spyder, awesome machine...
Not a veteran 2 wheeler , and boy did I have reservations but it's exhilarating.
Unfortunately I have't been able to play with it much , going back to the dealer for a second round of VSS,DSP & limp mode issues.

Welcome, PLZDVM!

Hopefully your dealer will be able to get your machine fixed this time. Rocky start to your new hobby, that. Did they say what's wrong with it? New issues or something that wasn't fixed properly the first time it was in?

Well, delivered last Thursday, Friday evening problems, so Mon they picked it up & told me the computer needed rebooting, re calibrating and it was fine. Delivered it again this last Thurs and a quick ride yesterday no issues, this afternoon, VSS, DSP and the ever dreaded limp mode.
I don't think they know what's going on.
Not very happy with a broken toy out of the box.
They do seem like good guys, hopefully they'll get the problem fixed.

Any owners in eastern Long Island, NY?

I was just gonna ask you where you're hiding here in NYS! I'm way up in the Mid-Hudson region, but I know that there are others South of me...
Welcome aboard and let us know how the dealer makes out clearing codes! Good luck!

Good luck on getting the faults worked out. I put on 5000+ and counting miles my first year on my Red '09 GS without a single issue.

There is a rally coming up called - Spyders in the Adirondacks (NY) July 28-30th

Ok, dealership told me they needed to re alighn the steering & torque sensors and found a loose connection.
They have been testing it for 2 days and the errors haven't re occurred.
So it will be delivered tomorrow and I hope that will be it.
If there are any more specific info from the dealer Concernig the fix I will pass it on.

They've been testing it, or driving it and having a great time on it? Hopefully its fixed now and you'll be able to enjoy it yourself!!

 

[PLZDVM]

Yep, I hope so too..

 

[sassapnts]

Have you got it back? How's it acting for you?

 

[PLZDVM]

So far so good....

 

[Bob Denman]

That's good news... I'm glad to hear it!

 

[PLZDVM]

Ran flawlessly for my 1 hour round about, couldn't be happier.
Despite the early issues, very content with my new toy and very happy with the dealership.

Yay!!! Glad you've got it back and, better, its fixed!!!
