New Side panels

[SNOOPY]

Very nice

Color looks great.

Is that an extra hole up top of that new panel also?

[SNOOPY]

Did you put Fox shocks on your bike? Like the difference?

[Benggolf]

Wow! Congratulations for being the first STS with the 2014 panels! Looks great.
Let us know what improvements you notice with respect to the "overheating issue" now with the 2014 panels.
Thanks in advace for sharing.

Yes indeed, please keep us posted on this! Not sure where you live but we all may need to wait a few months for the weather.

That opening is a small open vent where as before it was a larger opening with a plastic grill.

Couple of weeks after I took delivery I replace the OEM shocks with the Fox shocks and must say they work very, very well. When you consider the monetary difference between the Elkas and the Foxes, the Fox shocks are a much better value.

On 1/14 I emailed the spydertech email listed a couple pages back asking about the new panels in 2013 colors..

Today, I got a response:

Thank you for contacting BRP.

In response to your request, the 2014 panels will fit on the 2013, we only have the panels in the 2014 colors at this point in time.

To find a dealership in your area, please visit our website at: www.brp.com

Thank you for your time.

Keep up the calls/emails and maybe.... just maybe we'll catch a break.

Soon as the weather gets above freezing here I'll take some outdoor shots. It looks so much better in the sunlight.

[SNOOPY]

Um, Circuit Yellow always looks good!

Thanks. So you did not need to paint the panels? They matched

[SNOOPY]

Do you have a list of what you bought Carl? Part numbers?

Thanks

The new 2014 Metallic Circuit Yellow panels were a perfect match for my 2013 Circuit Yellow ST-S.

Here is the parts list for a white one. The panels are listed as to what BRP is calling the 2014 white, Vegas White Satin, which I am not sure is the same as the 2103 Pearl White.

Cool thanks Carl


Could you not reuse the panel nuts from the original panels?

[quickster47]

You actually can but I myself always like to have some spares and I do replace some of mine after they have been used multiple times. I know it's anal...

Actually I have one bag of them I use if one starts to feel funny, that's why I asked....they get expensive quick.

BRP insulation that goes on the inside of the panels.

Carl, I just forwarded my request for quotation the new 2014 side panels to our local BRP dealership.
Expect to heard from them by next week.

Can you please tell me approximately how many man hours of labor will be needed to install these
panels on our STS.

Meantime, have you been able to notice any significant changes (other than the "cool" look) in engine temperatures after you installed the new side panels?

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Beng

[Benggolf]

Snoopy, have you done anything about getting those new 2014 side panels yet?
I just on the Spderpops BumkSkid, Fox shock absorbers, RonBar and heim links installed.

Amazing how much smoother the bike is and the improvement in overall response/handling is
after changing the OEM shocks and sway bar!

Thanks to Ron for his sway bar and all the recommendations I have read to change the shocks to Fox (same as those in RSS)!
The mod is very cost effective.
