RTL 2020, DIY and Experience Comments

[bikerbillone]

Lots of comments coming about the 2020, it's all new so comments are slow in evolving. I'm looking forward to DIYs on this machine, new discoveries about the ride, after market add on's. For exmple, I'm alert for after market on the passenger arm rests, trying to be patient, they will come. Downside, more aftermarket, more lust, more $.

Many of us are looking forward to the comments about the new 20's (RT's) in particular.

There is a whole new group of "beta testers" out there. So far, with one exception (fit and finish), the comments have been great. And...it does sound like BRP has and is addressing that.

We are all looking forward to those DIY posts and information posts about "new" and "exciting" accessories. Vendors...are you listening?

Good one ARkansas, guess mine was one of the first group off the line, has th zip tie. GM said, no problem fixes will be out in April, he will fix it. Got a price on some short reach bars today, $210 with my discounts. Not a bad price in the big scheme of things. First time they made a mistake and gave me th tri-axis for the 2019 and prior, gulp, almost 1K including install less discounts.

Short Reach bars can be had for $149 online with Free shipping. The install takes less than 30 minutes and is super simple.

Thanks Admiral, I need to check that out, all that foo foo on the bars had me concerned about the complexity, me screwing something up and some of the wiring not adequate length. Can you give me a link to the short reach bars. $149 beats the heck out of $210......

Much obliged, doesn't look that difficult. Ya think if it fits the F3 it will fit the 2020 RTL, also wondering how much the pull back compared to the BRM OEM replacement. That's an unknown unless some one on the forum has done the install.
