    looks cool. I like the new fenders, and the change to the front tupperware... I hope they made everything for usual maintenance available without removing panels, and molded a cup holder into the dash somewhere...

    This might be the new 1900cc engine inside and a drive shaft.

    AV Rider is a site for people riding the Adventure type bikes (BMW RT1200, etc.). This is a huge market now. That site alone has close to 250,000 members.

    Spyder #1 - 2008 GS SM5 Premier Edition #1977. RIP after 80,000 miles.
    Spyder #2 - 2012 RT SM5. Traded in after 24,000 miles.
    Spyder #3 - 2015 F3 SM6. Put 13,000 miles on and sold it.
    Spyder #4 - 2017 F3 SM6. Too good of a deal to pass up!

    It seems that the area where the foglights are have been rounded and the chromed "inside wings" are closer to the frunk lid!

    You don't think that owning a spyder is an adventure??

    What now?

    Oh! Judging by the Chrome tops on the mirrors; it might be a new color for the Limiteds...

    Definitely looks like they reworked the front air intake area hopefully they eliminated the hot foot and made room for a bigger engine

    Looks like small scoops just below the fog lights...or am I seeing things? If not maybe they are ambient air intakes for "cooling" the TB area...or am I just hoping?

    That one has the new 800 CC R-TEC 2 stroke in it. Couldn't anybody tell by the sound of the exhaust?

    Thank you for posting the "spy" pictures of the 2014. I also appreciate the posting of the comparison to the 2013. There are subtle differences in the body that I like. I also like the orange color. Someone had also mentioned in a previous thread the color candy apple red. Time will tell.

    I was wondering how the 2014 situation would play out with the current issues going on with the 2013. Yesterday I was thinking, only three more months (End of September) is the time the new information is given out about the next model year.

    I am still guessing we are going to be looking at some tupperware changes and colors as the big stuff to look forward to. With all the issues about heat failures, I would be very surprised if BRP jumps in with a new engine (bigger and shaft drive). I am thinking they need to get the 2013 issues solved before they can go onward and upward.

    I was thinking of having mine painted a burnt orange color. The spy photos look pretty close, will now hold off, and hope that there are some internal improvements and put that money as a down payment!!!!

    If they were thinking of calling the color burnt orange they may have changed it to something non fire related now. I would hope that they haven't made major changes again they need to work out the kinks in the 2013 first. If they do have a totally new model with new engine and a bunch of other changes I fear that the issues on the 2013 will become something that they won't want to spend much energy fixing.
