Actually, that was a test of a 2012 version. It would be interesting to see how the handling looked with the updated suspension and Fox shocks and bar.

2012 RS-S (not the base model) has the Fox Shocks from factory. Luke even mentions it on 4:15.

According to the end of the video:
Lows:
- We waste way too much time talking to people about the Spyder
- Everyone wants to try it
- It is safer than a motorcycle
THESE ARE LOWS?!?!?!

Yes, but it's the Fox setup for the pre-2013 suspension, the 2013's are a new spec. You get the shock and swaybar advantage plus the new geometry.

You are correct... but then he needs to do it now since he tapped the review in 2012

I liked the review. I thought it was very positive and complimentary. The comment about the lack of a front brake lever caught my attention. That's been a much bantered topic on SL.

I concur with Olddog, I agreed with just about everything he said. I have a 12 RS, but I added the fox shocks, so handling wise it's an RS-S (personally I preferred the all black to the RS-S graphics). While I've gotten used to not having a hand brake while riding, in the first few hundred miles it caused a couple of close calls, and I'd still like a hand brake for loading in and out of the toy hauler.

I agree with him about the need for brakes that can be operated independently of each other. Maybe I've been riding 2 wheels too long, or been riding off road bikes too long, but i do miss that!
