[Jimmy Neutron]

And rightfully so the man who helped Spyder get to where it is has the first.. Now I want mine lol.. And thanks again Lamont for the hospitality you showed my wife and I.. You are a class act..

[Lamonster]

Thanks Doc but this is a short term loan. I will say if you have any hands on burning questions I'll do my best to answer them. :doorag:

Thank you, I'll start with the handling on the Dragon, compared with Elka's stage 5?

[chris56]

burning questions ..

it would be intresting how many parts could be installed on the older RS/RT Modells - the wheels - the brakes - the fenders - the shield - heated grips - are there "new" adapters for the Givi-cases - has the handlebar the same wholes than the RT/RS and whats about fuel-consumption & heat management & VSS sensibility ..

:dontknow:

[Bob Denman]

You go right for the throat; don't you Doc? :shocked: :roflblack:

I agree, pics in the sunshine please. The silver black looks like a very dark combo in the pics. Can't wait to see one in person

Raining here now and they were calling for 2" of snow so the Dragon is out today and no sunshine pics.:banghead:

The wheels could swap but is not endorsed or recommended by BRP because it will change the handling dynamics.
Not sure on the brakes but the same caution would be applied if they did bolt up.
The fenders will work on the older models I'm pretty sure.
There is a heated grip option now but I'm pretty sure you would have to come up with your own power.
I have no idea on the Givi bags and brackets. You could see if they are a different part number.
The handle bars look like they would bolt up on the RT but I have not tried it. You would have to change the yoke on the RS and even then I'm not sure if there would be any other issues. The RS now comes stock with a 1" rise in the bars
There has been a heat management change on the ST compared to the RS but nothing on the RT other than the heat shield on the pipe.
Fuel consumption is suppose to be a little better. I'll be able to say for sure when it stops raining.
The VSS is the latest generation Bosh and I was able to kick it in but not near as soon

Is the new Bosch system across the board??

[Lamonster]

Is the new Bosch system across the board??

Yes.

Here's something you RS/GS guys will like. :doorag:

Lamont, I know I am a little slow and usally speak before I read all the post.. But I thought you told me you had a yellow one ordered.

[Bob Denman]

http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/4/4_11_4.gif I think he mentioned that this one was a loaner...

Reinforced rear fender bracketry? :shocked:

[Lamonster]

You're not slow, I do have a yellow one on order, this is just a short term loaner.

[docdoru]

Yes.

[Bob Denman]

[Bob Denman]

Do you think that's a part that will fit all of the GS/RS bikes?

Kinda wondered how liong it'd take for the farkles to sprout... :shocked: :roflblack:
So what's next on the agenda?

[docdoru]

Looks like a vibration absorber, welded to the old side bracket and the under fender bracket. :dontknow:

[chris56]

has the exhaust two parts now ??

[Bob Denman]

Yes.
All of the 2013 models are using the engine and exhaust system from the RT now... The catalytic converter is separate.

Hi Lamont, long time no talk/chat.
will those fenders fit 09RS?
Are these red and amber reflectors actually functional lights?
cheers :-)
