    I got the email, and Bit. I knew the Trade in Value VS Retail Value on my Spyder, so was not surprised when it came in with a $2000.00 spread between Low and high trade in Value against a new 2017 Rt Limited. Only problem is, their High Value Trade in was $4000 less than KBB Retail Value.

    Then if and when they make it and it has the real world test of all styles and types of riders and rides, with all of the after market modifications that people make to it, how many years will it it take for them to correct it all?

    Why is it that past motorcycles and girlfriends are always remembered as the best or perfect, and the current ones we have we complain about?

    Sorry but after 1.5 riding seasons and 18,000 miles my Spyder is trouble free and still a ton of fun, it not like my motorcycle, it's not better, its different. I embrace those differences and love it for what it is.

    I got an e-mail from a salesperson that did not even know me. I have purchased six from the dealer since 2008 and over 130,000 miles on the brand. I am probably one of their best customers if I were also to add in the four Kawasaki's I also bought from them??? I put down undecided on the form so it was assumed that I did not know much about spyders or models. He suggested I go with RT if I ride two up or a lot. He said he had deals on 2016's and that 2017's were on order. In AK, that means the 17's will be here in April or May of 2017. Sometimes, I just have to sit back and wonder.

    yeah, I got it. I filled it out. Then I laughed at the trade in and retail value. No, I'm not looking. I still owe way too much on mine. As far as the personal info- all zeros on the phone number. BRP already has my address.

    I got it and ran it through. Rolled my eyes at the figure I got. Anyway, I like mine and have no intention of getting rid of it.

    I didn't get one either. Doesn't sound like I missed much. Do wonder what is in store in the pipeline.

    Just for giggles, I did fill mine out. As some may recall, a couple of weeks ago I started a thread about my delaer loaning me his Demo, a 2016 RTS with the 1330 engine while my Spyder was in his shop. Both the wife & I really like the engine & tranny, and as my dealer pointed out, "once you ride it you'll be spoiled and want to trade". He was right, but too big a price difference. His distributor offered $12,500.00 for our RTL, as figured he would have to "sit on it until the spring". (My dealer did tell me that the distributor has been lowballing trade-in prices for just that reason). The BRP trade in estimate was $14,260.00, pretty much the same as KBB. Still not gonna make the trade, as BRP said I would be contacted by a dealer who-shall-not-be-named that I no longer use.

    So far... It is looking like the "What's it worth" e-mail has not stirred the owners to run to their nearest dealer and get the trade in/purchase juices flowing. It's the end of the season for most of us and 2017 is another year.

    I was wait and see, but based on what I found out, I think #5 is my last.
