    Default Advice Please?! Opinions on RT Ltd's, 2017 vs 2019 - either better?

    Advice please. I’m looking at two Spyder RT LTD’s - one a 2017 and the other a 2020. Both have similar miles and price. In you opinion, is one year model better than another? Thanks for any advice. Safe riding, lou

    Well IMHO if they are basically the same Price the 2020 is waaaaay better pricewise .... it has three years less depreciation .... and the 17 is way over-priced ..... Can you tell us the prices .....Thanks ...Mike

    I think his correction is a 2017 or 2019, so 2019 for the win with the full digital dash! If the 2019 is a chrome addition, those are my favorite wheels ever put on a Spyder.
