Great Bike to Start With!
I also started out with a 2013ST! Bit sportier, that 998cc engine is super responsive! Don't get in trouble!

Congrats and welcome aboard
you are already on your way to a farkeling frenzy!!! Nice Ryde.

Enjoy
just a tip - if you don't have the airflow side panels (standard on 14+ ST models), ask your dealer to get them for you - no cost, goodwill fix. Reduces heat under the Tupperware, highly recommended.

Thanks for all the responses. How can I tell if I have the airflow side panels? If I post a picture can you tell? Is it for both sides or just one?

Hi, it is for both sides. Adds a fist-sized vent. Here is a picture, hope it helps.
There are two part numbers needed for the kit - left and right.

Thanks Loisk. I see I don't have the improved airflow panels. Since I purchased the bike second hand and not from a dealer do you think Can Am will still provide this fix? I also smell a fairly strong gasoline smell in my garage after a ride.

Yes, dealer should do this even for secondhand - mine was used, too.
Note - it is a Goodwill Fix - not the Recall which only covered 13 RT - many dealers are easily confused. As such it will not show up on a vin search, but it is valid.
Re gas smell, I know in hot weather my fuel would boil, so I had to open the cap and wait before I could fill it. (Pre panels)
Keep an eye on the smell, a service may fix it. Purge valve could need a fix - it is supposed to clear itself on the initial starting rev. Others will chime in I am sure, but a few good runs may be all it needs.
Might pay to contact a good local dealer, get the panels ordered, with the promise to them of a service when the panels arrive!? Will enable you to sus them out in case you need them later on. If you have any issues getting the airflow panel kit, post on this forum and people will give good advice.
