Interested in looking--but no plans on buying. My current two RT's are so far, doing just fine.
Interested in looking also, but keeping my 2014 RTS-SE6 cognac, is doing fine.

Just because they announced the 10th Anniversary Models: it doesn't mean that they've got nothing else up their sleeves...
We'll know a whole lot more in just a Month!

The BNG theme is only for the 10th Anniversary models from what I've been told.

Shaft drive. Already have the technology in the 4 by 4. Single side swing are is all that is needed.

There's no change like that on the existing models...

Then you did not do the sequence correctly. It works on all 2015 RT and F3.

A leaning Honda.
Honda is working on a leaning three wheeled bike. It's called the Neowing. Not much is known about it but it uses a flat 4 cylinder engine, like the older Gold Wing.
Knowing Honda it should work well.
Piaggio makes a leaning production bike, two wheels in the front. I've seen them but they're a little on the small side. Only a 500cc 2 cylinder.

I had the Piaggio MP3 400 for a while. It works well. But it's only a maxi scooter.
Also have a look at tiltingmotorworks.com They will (for $9,995 and up) convert a Gold Wing or a Harley to a two wheel tilting (leaning) front end. 36 inches wide measured from the center of each front wheel. However, you lose most of your ABS features because they haven't figured that out yet.

I really just want a sport model back that has the RS seating/leg position. Simple really.

Hoping that if there are "surprises," that those who have pre-ordered 2018 Anniv. Editions don't get burned in the process. I am really thinking that scenario will NOT happen though.

I had extensive conversations with BRP, and was re-assured that the 2018 models were "mirror images", of the 2017s...
At least the existing models are! Who knows what new machines are waiting?

JC What's the correct sequence
I have a 2015 RT SE6 I tried but mine will not start until the full computer boot up has finished The same as my previous 2010 RT SE5 startup sequence was

I'm pretty sure that only the F3 got the quicker start-up.
Us RT owners will just have to wait...

The 2016 RT have the quick start function at least 2 recent owners that have them here in the U.K. have it

It's possible that the new model rollout will be delayed. We were told during Homecoming that the Spyder production line is being dismantled and rebuilt as a flexible line, so I think it's possible it won't ready in time for the usual rollout time. This is, of course, pure speculation on my part. They plan to use the new line to assemble Ski Doos in the summer and Spyders in the winter. Up until now it has been idle during the summer.

I'm betting on the inclusion of Infinite Improbability Drive to replace the drive belt; and the addition of a Flux Capacitor on the left handgrip. I have some inside information on this.

Doc had it wrong. Cars would have been self driving by then!
If what's been predicted is true, that humans will be forbidden to drive a vehicle ~ year 2050, where does that leave the motorcycling industry? Out to dry?
