Sold. Thanks folks. If Missus tripped over the box again I was going to get whacked with it.

Gone to Doc.

Fast attacks. Flasher, Greenling, Sunfish. TAD for a few months on Barb. Rode many of the FBMs and D5 boats as a TRE scribe. :).

Just a plug...I have a new set for 15 and earlier RT in the for sale @ $400. Someone grab 'em before they get tossed in the back of the barn. We're tired of tripping over the box.

$400 plus ship. First one to yelp

Bump....unopened...ready to go...$299 cheaper than BRP.

$475 plus ship. Lets get this to a good home.

My 2012 did it at I think 1200 miles. Antenna 'unscrewed' itself and it and the boot were gone. As it was never parked in an uncontrolled area (it went to work and back and work was controlled...

My 2012 had an electric frunk switch, I don't know why it was dropped later, but you can buy it as a kit and install. The electric seemed to have a stronger spring and when you hit the frunk release...

Sold my 2014 RT-S and never even opened this box. I got 'em for $500 and passing along the same deal to spidey friends. Look up part number at BRP for any questions.

$500 plus actual...

Wonderful ride to Charlotte and a nice half-day spent with new owner. Got a call this morning that the frunk won't latch....:banghead:

Never had the issue on the 12 or this 14, he already tried...

Happily never a DESS issue, on the Spyder or my Seadoos (which also had a run of DESS problems). For those of you with a State lemon law, don't be afraid to use it. Do not put up with repeat...

Sale pending, off to Charlotte!

I use an SJ4000 wifi, helmet mounted. Cheap as chips, has been through all kinds of weather. I use it mostly on the sportbike, video quality is fantastic. This is on one of the lowest...

Nope. The '14 is rock solid (a few DESS complaints but rare), and otherwise the bikes are the same. You can probably save a couple grand under the '15 (or more) and use it for farkles :)

Have a nibble on selling the spyder but if that falls through I'll be making a reservation for 'off the reservation'. May even do it without a spyder and bring a two wheeler.

My thoughts on...

Doc, the 'event' for me is the roads out there and the vendors. You guys setup somewhere and arrange a Spyderlovers price on some rooms and I'll take a chance on the weather and make a reservation...

I hope they gave you full value back on that RT. Should be zero depreciation considering it was within many states lemon law and you spent more time screwing with issues than riding.

Best of luck...

I'm leaning that way. I took my 2012 RT down to parade rest when installing tons of farkles, one of the reasons this bike has remained largely farkeless....the RT has a way of swallowing dropped...

I don't like chrome either but for $500 I'll either spray flat black matte or coat with plasti-dip. $125 is $125!!!! I'm the same nut that spent $600 to turn my little CBR into a Repsol replica...

Assumin I keep the trike, going to have the hitch done at rear time replacement time. Save a little on the labor.

Shop around. I just bought the chrome version of the Tri-Axis new for $500. It lists @$799 vice the $625 for the black. I also had to shop around the install, two dealers in this part of NC, one...

Long test rydes are in order, and if you're like me, keep a two wheeler or (three or four of 'em) around as they ain't the same thing. Each has it's place.

They leak less if you remove and plug the nails/screws you pick up in them :clap:

So I'm assuming my '14 won't sell and ordered a chrome tri-axis kit. If for some crazy reason it sells before the kit gets here next week I'll have a Tri-axis for sale cheap :).

Dealer wants $325...

Too bad you ain't closer to NC, I'd let you try my '14 RT-S and then talk about a swap :). Sure do miss the EGUC.

Seat that moves back, a way to move the pegs back, handlebars further forward and lower. Generally turn it into a sport trike. Or just sell it and get another R1100RT or Concours, both of which fit...

I'm going to be trying one out (if) Spidey sells. Not going to tease myself since I can't justify having both and market is a little soft around here on used Spidey. Still thinking it's a 3...

If it doesn't sell then triaxis is next. I need to sit chest forward, not straight up. I have no discs left at all on the last three verterbrae at the bottom of the spine so straight up and down...

Replying to myself :). To save more PMs..by touring trades I mean BMW RT series, Honda ST, 2nd gen Concours, FJR, etc. My back can't take any lean back sitting or even straight up and down, I have...

I'll add pics later but you know what a Cognac looks like. Always garaged, never rained on. Bought in late Sep 2014 so it came with the extended can-am warranty (I think it added two years but I'll...

If'n the Triglide wasn't worth so much more than the Spyder RT-S I'd offer to let you test ride and swap but there is ~10k book value difference between a 2014 RT-S and a 2015 TriGlide. Mine does...
