    Default Where Oh Where Can My Yellow RT Be?

    Ok, I know if it were here, I would not be riding it. Butt, with that being said, where the he** is it? My tri axle handle bars are in. Parts guy said give it 1-2 weeks to see them. They came in in three days. Go figure. Just wondering has anyone seen a yellow 2014 RT yet? Did they even start making yellow ones yet? Dealer says the end of this month. Butt, no ship date as of yet. Oh well. Tom

    Default Yellow Delay

    I met with my dealer this week. He had originally stated the Yellow RTS would arrive in mid/late Feb. (the dealership is in South Jersey). On Tues he said that the delivery date was moved back until April. I'm not sure whether that date is just for his order or for all Yellow RTS's.

    My dealer said all along that the yellow ones would be March or April. Bet that's not what you wanted to hear!
    Sold my 14 RTS went back to 2 wheels.

    Cool

    My wife's 2014 Cognac RT-L has a February delivery, but the dealer hasn't received the ship notice from the trucking company. Hope it shows up soon! We plan to leave for a two week trip to Florida on March 20 with the Spyder and new trailer (27 days).

    Your so right. I don't recall anyone posting about their new Yellow . That's also the one I wanted, and my dealer failed to even order one. I won't rant anymore--but it felt a little bit good.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    You could watch a bike video on a big screen with your new handle bars
    That will help pass the time

    Same with my dealer; they didn't order any yellow ones. I called around but no one had a yellow so I went with the white. Maybesome will find a yellow and really really wants a white one....nicely broke in...and urges me to trade..........

    I saw a yellow 2014 RTS in Roanoke Virginia dealer Star City Powersports two days ago that they have on their showroom floor waiting for someone to buy it.

    Looks very nice!

    And I can adjust the handle bars to whatever chair I am sitting in. Tom

    Dude I know how you feel
    I waited a whole year before I got my first back in Sept 2007
    That was the longest year ever
    I rode on every demo ride I could find
    I originally ordered a 2014 RT in white but when I went to the dealer in Jan. and they had a Cognac RT limited I could not take it any longer and bought it on the spot
    the weather has been cold where I live but dry and I have been ridding every day
    When you do get it you will realize the wait was worth it
    Let us know how you like the handle bars I have been thinking about them but that's a lot of other farkles I could have if I don't like them
    Hope it comes in soon for you

    Do you think that Len and Vanessa would deliver it?

    Tom,
    Having it, and not being able to ride it just yet....
    ... is WAY better than NOT having it!
    I'm thinking good thoughts; for both you and Maxine...
    C'mon BRP... deliver the goods!

    Bob I'm thinking that the dealer told BRP to hold off on the 14's when they first placed the order. I know they placed an order for around 30 Spyder's. Why have them sitting in storage paying the floor planning $$. They have 2 13's on the floor trying to get rid of them. And one is a yellow RTS. Tom
