Tally Thread: I purchased a new 2020 RT.

Hmmm, looks like a hot item! I do not think the DCT GL1800 was this hot over on that forum.

**BRUBET** · 03-02-2020, 04:09 PM

I'm jealous. I wanted Black/Dark, but ordered a Red/Dark 2020 RTL. Nobody will offer a guess about when to expect it. It was said no 2020 Red's have shipped. Does anyone know the WHYs and WHENs?????

**Pooch** · 03-02-2020, 04:15 PM

When you have had time to fill up a couple of tanks worth please post your MPG for the 2020. Salesman told us 40mpg...another source told us 29mpg in the real world. Ok..so now we’re confused...???

You need to get about 3,000 miles on the bike before "true" mileage will show up. You can expect high 30's. 40's can be elusive. But, who pays $30K for a bike and worries about mpg anyway?

My understanding is it has something to do with the paint.

We traded in our 2014 for a Petrol Metallic Dark

OK, mine is in a crate at the dealer.
Waiting for them to receive the HeliBars for installation before final pick up, hopefully by the end of next week.
They ran the VIN number, and there is no recall or technical bulletin for the body panels, so the poor fit of the rear panels may have been resolved in the factory.

Is it red?

I'm trading in my 2014 RTS for a 2020 RT Limited in Asphalt Grey Dark Version.
I hope to take delivery in early March.
I'll ride it for a month or so stock and see what modifications I may need. I'm thinking in order of importance:
My first Farkle is going to be the Heli Bars if I'm even a little uncomfortable with the reach of the bars.
Next would be the RonBar, if it's necessary. BRP has claimed they improved their OEM anti sway bar. In any event, I'll upgrade the links.
I'd also like to light up the side markers, but I'm concerned with the potential LED interference with the sound system.

I too was curious as to the color so I researched his previous posts and saw this!

Took delivery of our Asphalt Grey/Dark last week. The panels are proper and not zip tied or broken. Bolts are in and things are aligned nicely.

Does anyone if the red RTs have hit the market yet? I am waiting to see the red before I make a jump.

This thread is for posting up that you purchased a new 2020 RT. I would like to keep it on that track. There are a lot of threads about purchasing and purchasing do's and don'ts.

Most of the time, actual prices are not discussed. Some buyers are more astute than others. Some get really good prices, and some get taken for a ride.

Due dilligence before buying is a good thing.

Back to to subject matter of the thread: Tally Thread--I purchased a new 2020 RT

Thanks

**ARtraveler** · 03-09-2020, 06:36 PM

Twenty one and counting. Purchase of 2020 RT.

**ARtraveler** · 03-10-2020, 02:34 PM

Okay, I will bump this one or two more times. Maybe this one has run its course.

**kimrpaige** · 03-10-2020, 08:35 PM

Texas Al,

I am in the same boat as you I want to buy one this week but I really want to see a red prior to. I am doing a test ride and receiving a coupon on Thursday here at Daytona.
