They shrunk it. Saddle looks more sculpted. Nice evolution in the marque.

Earlier model years should get a boost in resale value from this development I think.

They said they lowered the seat but the driver has 2" more leg room and Passenger has 1" more leg room.

Thanks a lot. I looked, I liked, I printed a build it page, I looked at potential dealers.

They even got me with the RT in Petrol (Aqua) color...been waiting for that since about 2013. I like the "clean" look...no top box. Found two accessories...the heated comfort seat and the front auxilliary light. No need for the $2K top box in back. So far...$24K and change.

Remaining....a dealer who is willing to give me a good deal....and I am hard when it comes to that. The looking and make an offer stage to follow.

Shrunk ??? ….. specs say 4.5 +/- longer ……. Mike

It will be interesting to see these in person. They did mention the base RT and the RTL would be about $1300 less than the current year. I like the no top box from the RT model. Looks are a bit different. Can't wait to see the new colors available.

Enough to make me pull the trigger....probably not.

Im looking hoping for new WHITE model,

[BryanSD]

It sounds like accessory add-ons will be more modular and similar to how you accessories are added to the Ryker. More DIY for those non-mechanics like me! I'd buy one!

One question, does the wheel base look wider than the previous RTs?

[RICZ]

Looks kinda F3-ish. Makes me wonder if they're discontinuing it. Finally, after all these years, all LED lights up front.

[Flamewinger]

Can't get a look at the dash and they offer a Garmin GPS. No radio, no anything about music or entertainment.

Whew...... I thought they might have come out with a higher performance shaft drive that would make my bike obsolete. Looks like same-ol-same-ol cosmetic upgrades. No reason to jump to the "new" stuff...... Jim

Couldn’t have said it any better myself, the 1300 is ok but it could be improved, better fuel mileage, quieter Apple CarPlay!

[Flamewinger]

They will have the new Tech dash but more storage. The rider part of the seat flips up for gas letting the passenger stay put. Adjustable floorboards. Removable trunk.

fueling up with passages still sitting, 1st thought is "she is happy to get off as well" 2nd ....they need to get off

I agree, though will come in handy if riding solo and have a bag strapped to the rear seat

[KX5062]

I find it interesting. I sure hope they did a better job with the top case, frunk and side cases over what they did with the F3.

[blacklightning]

I like the looks of this when the trunk is off. Nothing that I would switch up for, but the larger saddle bags (larger than my F3T) are nice. I also like the larger frunk.

[billybovine]

So they now put the RT on the F3T/L chassis with a different set of body work. The old RT chassis was introduced in 2013 and was the same as the RS and ST. So I guess time to go.

I do wish BRP would do a better job of marketing. Their website and video's are flashy but don't really show or get down to the nitty gritty of the bike. Think they ought to give a better tour of the design and changes etc., I understand that this is their way of marketing but people who buy the product and own one already, would love to know the details, see the details, understand the details etc., you can't learn with the video's they have produced. Think they could improve on that for sure.

Keep in mind this was the dealer show, not consumer show. They repeatedly said, "Come see us in the showroom!" That's where the dealers will see the details. Consumers just have to wait our turn!

It looks to me to be one or two steps backword,
the passenger now does not have the security of the trunk with backrest
and the arm rests to ensure they don't fly off in turns.
They have made it in my view into a one person trike with
an occasional passenger seat. Even with the removable trunk on
there is less storage room than before
May as well go with the F3 LTD
only my opinion... and you know about opinions

Not sure I agree that they have taken a step backwards, while a backrest and armrests can be installed, albeit this this might look a little odd it is still pratical. My first impression when i saw the released pic of the RT (without topcase) was that it is somewhat akin to the Goldwing F6b (of course less the 1800 6cyl motor) with 2 wheels up front and made me wonder if that is the look and feel they are pitting this model against as a tourer.

Dave, what I think they did was take some of those bells and whistles out and made them a optional equipment!! it will make the aftermarket guy's happy! All in all I think they have made some good changes in the style, tho don't like the open shot to the radiators, looks like trouble! The headlights are a plus I think, power ports, rear trunk that will fit two helmets, floor, boards!! Can not wait to put my butt on one!!

[Bob204bc]

I think it looks good and seems to have some great features. Long footboards allow you to move your legs (That's why I ride a F3L), removable trunk that is wide enough to hold two helments, and better electronics control panel. What I really want to know is how big are the saddlebags and the frunk? Are they bigger than the F3 bags because this looks a lot like a modified F3.
