throttle body
[Before any of us got to ride one of these babies we saw what it was going to look like in it's finished state and I was bursting with excitement. The front looked more like a custom than a RT or RS but if you had to say it was one or the other it was definitely more like an RT but sportier. The 15" front wheels and low profile tires gave it a custom look and also improved riding stability. Added to that they included a larger rotor and much improved Brembo brakes even though the later models had great brakes to start with.
The ST has an adjustable windshield but it is not done with a motor or needing any tools, you just lift up and slide it where you want it and it locks in place.
Looks like all models have gone to throttle body and 100hp. Can the ST brakes and wheels be retrofited to the GS/RS?

It's exactly what I was hoping for: pricing?
Lamont, any pix of the dark black with purple is it? Do you have any info on pricing?
Thanks so much for post and pics!
Really looking forward to your additional posts.

Maybe this thread will be read by one or more of the BRP Exec's and they will consider all non-Canadian and USA Owners
the Spyder is popular in Europe

Congrats to BRP on the 2013 upgrades. Does it inspire me to want one, NOT! From what I have read they have created an in between model that will give some an option between sport and touring. The Rotax 990 has been a good solid engine but for me lacks the low end punch (Torque) needed to push the RT without revving the heck out of it. A new engine with bigger displacement might be in the cards but I would think marketing has kept it behind until BRP gets hungry for more sales. They will flog this engine until they can't anymore. I am not looking for a road burner in an engine but a low revving, multi cylinder (smooth) torquey engine. I never like the belt drive either. Funny how BRP has shaft drive in their ATV's but not on the Spyder! Does Profits come into the equation? Big Time!!

I know you havn't finished updating but... The pics in the album show a vent on the windscreen that's looks really cool (punn intended).
would be nice to know if that can be retro fitted. Nice line up, personally I don't like the new fenders. Be nice to see the new rt in person.

I believe STS is $22,199 & ST Limited is $27,099. Not sure what the base ST is.

Does the STS have the color display like the RT?, & second question is the sound system compatible with the current ST Hybrid communication system and phone integration?

The new 2013 Spyder RT ST and RS
So basically: Harley marketing is so good that it has to be copied every way possible: clothing line, mileage pins, clubs and now creating bikes out of the parts bins by mixing and matching the same body parts again and again ..,, blurring lines between the different models.... Does that mean we are stuck with the same engine for the next 20 years too ?? Please Honda/Yamaha/Kawasaki get on the 3 wheelers niche!!!
