Hello all.

I picked up the 14' RT SE6 today. I'm loving it!!! $21,500 plus sales tax. It was a very easy transaction. I wanted the RTS but I thought this was such a great deal.

Of course I have to find some things to tinker with... going to start with the seat. I find the stock seat fairly uncomfortable in the thigh area. After doing some searching here, I think I'll be ordering the Ultimate Seat.

The brake pedal seems to have too much movement before the brakes start working. I'm comparing to my father's 13' ST Limited. His brake pedal pedal starts braking much higher and the STS stays flat when stopping. The RT has about an inch of free play before the brakes start to do anything and87940 seems to nose dive a bit and have to use a lot more force. Is it just the additional weight?

The right rear passenger controls don't do anything. I thought they're supposed to be for the radio?

Thanks to all of you for the help so far!!



( I posted in the general discussion forum but then realized I should've been over here. )

:congrats: You're going to LOVE it! :D
I believe that the passenger volume controls are designed to handle the volume of BRP's intercom system; if your bike is so-equpped...

Yes. SE6 is the semi-auto 6-speed. The manual would be "SM."
