No announcements at all that I heard. It was a very informal event. The food was great and it was nice to see everyone but BRP didn't really say anything. I didn't go for the news though. I figured if anything was new, we would have first on SL.:yikes:

They're going to be purchasing their engines from Triumph, and will have Rotax delevlop a supercharged version of the Rocket III's 2300cc mill...
Think 140 horsepower, and 200 pound/feet of torque! :yikes:

Sorry for not finishing. Had a knock at the door. Was some guys in dark suits, sunglasses and ear monitors. Something about classified information being released.

I also owned a Triumph Rocket III and their power is something else. I traded the Rocket speed for the Spyder comfort. Now all is good. Is yours a 2006 Mulberry Tribal? If it is that is the same color and year as mine.

April is ten months away. :roflblack:

I am guessing any new information will come in the fall like they usually do. My prediction: No major changes on anything--they will want to get past the 2013 intros of the ST versions that were made this year. A couple color changes--out with a couple and add some new.

Many of us have been advocating for a bigger, quieter engine--but I do not think that to be a large priority.

Time will tell. :thumbup:

Are there any other really neat rumors floating around out there? The Silly Season is upon us, and we need grist for the rumor mills... :roflblack:
