Lamont have you seen how they pipe the two radiators together, it would be interesting to see if they series the two up front with just 2 pipes going back to the motor
NO BIKE AT THIS TIME

Don't you just love Len holding the camera with one hand riding with the other. Talking a mile a minute.  I knew he wouldn't let us down on covering the event.

Everything an ex goldwinger could ever want. Love my 2012 Limited, it's going to hard giving up the lava bronze. Have to see how the numbers run and how the new colors look in person but would love the new torque.
Why oh why did you do this to me BRP.... the new bike are great. Please make a harry pottar special in Laval Bronze and I will send you a cheque.

I think we need to pitch in and buy Len a helmet cam for these events.

As I said in another thread; now I know how the guys who bought H-D touring 2006 models felt when the 2007s came out with bigger engines and a 6 speed tranny.   Oh well, maybe I'll trade when the 2015s come out. I hear they'll have a 1494 cc triple with supercharging.

The new engine is designed using their ACE (Advanced Combustion Efficiency) technology. So if you are stopped and asked if you got a Hemi in that thing, you can answer yes!!

You all know me well, yes hate helmets! There a good evil.
I was trying to get you all as much info on this as I could, so far I'm really happy with what I've seen, and I usually have several complaints at these events and ask why! But this time they were truly truly truly listing and I just was smiling and waving and smoking the tires. I'm happy! Happy! Happy! With the 1330 rotax ace design, and lay out and performance and fuel mileage.

Got some questions for Lamonster or Pitbull...
1) Will we be able to over-fill the fuel tank, or is there still that canister issue that traps over-filled fuel (fire hazard)?
2) Are they going with new tires or the same stock tires on previous years? Kinda hoping for higher mileage...
3) Do you know the minimum rpm to ride at? I know it will be a lot lower, but there still has to be a min.
4) Is it easier to access the airbox for the filter than before? I hated changing that thing, LOL.
5) I hear that they eliminated the centrifugal clutch, does this mean the electronic shifting is even smoother than before?
And is the "clutch destruction" that plagued previous models heavily minimized?
