I am scheduled to take a test ride on a new 2014 RTS on Monday October 28th. I will be providing a report of the power, handling and creature comforts of this new machine for those of you who may be interested in reading a first hand account of my experience. I will be driving on winding roads and will attempt to push the machine, in a spirited manner, through the twisties. This is not a "group" ride so I am hopeful that the BRP Rep will open it up on occasion so I can get some real world results on how this machine handles compared to a 2010 and 2013 model year.

If anyone has a specific question they want answered by the BRP rep, or want me to focus on a particular element during my ride please feel free to post it here.

I'd be interested in knowing how the bike "feels"... It's at least sixty pounds heavier than prior years; has that changed the bulk of the machine when it's on the road and up to speed?
