    Back when I had a '14 RT, the dealer replaced the DESS. If you can, before buying a used one, have a dealer hook it up to the BRP computer they all have and it will tell you what updates have been done/need to be done. If seller won't allow that, I'd be Leary of the deal.

    I agree strongly with Ted. I also second the recommendation to shop for a B.E.S.T. extended warranty, particularly is you're looking at an '18 or '19 with the parking brake problems they've had. As far as the '14 RT is concerned, other than my parking brake motor failing to hold when it was set and was replaced at 9K under warranty, I have rolled 62+K on the clock with no problems. As far as the audio system is concerned, I've had a Sena SMH10 from the get go and have never even tested bike's the speakers.
    Artillery lends dignity to what would
    otherwise be a vulgar brawl.

    I was just wondering if the 2016 F3 touring spyder that appears in this forum in the link below would be of interest to you. I am no salesmen and I collect no commission but if I lived in the USA I would be seriously looking at that one even though I like the RT Limited. Not sure if this link will work.

    Thats a nice looking machine, but I am looking of r a RT or RTL, simply because of the comport issue. really like the foot boards and the larger comport. Plan on riding distance from time to time, besides, I'm in Florida, thats in Las Vegas. Thanks for the notice on that though.

    I just made the switch, after years riding a series of two wheel bikes (A Honda Shadow, Yamaha Star1300, Harley FXDC and most recently a Yamaha Venture S)... I bought my 2018 RT Limited online (dealer demo) and rode it home 1400km having never so much as sat on a RT before. I am now at about 2200km and finally am starting to feel comfortable. You may at first wonder what the hell you did buying it, but it will quickly grow on you.
