    Don't Fret Bob, the new Spyders will be as much fun as the old spyders, just shinier.

    Let the naysayers have fun while they can.

    Quote from Rider Magazine: "Some of the test machines had trouble idling after numerous photo passes in the swampy heat (they were testing in Florida), and later BRP reps told us that they found the PCV valve had been installed incorrectly (um, backwards) on those bikes".

    ______ Happens sometimes I guess.

    Bob, I was at my dealer today and was told that some dealer in New York had received a shipment of 2014 RT's They also said that PITBULL in Missouri had received a shipment of RT's. They expected a shipment here in Central Fl. before Christmas. It would appear that they are finally shipping a few RT's so there is hope on the horizon.

    If production on the 2014 RT's starts on December 9th and Pitbull already has some, they must have the demos. Just Sayin

    I'm pretty sure that was not the current Dec. issue but the Sept. issue and those were not production RT's. They did have an issue with some of them having the PCV valve installed backwards.

    They don't have any yet, I hope that Pitbull gets theirs soon so I can get mine before Bob does in NY.

    Joe,
    If you're REALLY careful about it; just go from dealer to dealer, taking bikes out for test rides...
    It might help keep the withdrawal sysmptons from becoming too severe!

    The quote did mention that these were "test" machines.

    The issue I quoted from was the December 2013 issue. The cover has a picture of the Harley Ultra Limited. The quote I referred to comes from the bottom of page 39 and the top of page 40.

    I have already disposed of my September issue so don't remember exactly what they said about the Spyder there.

    The link says this is on location and Danica Patrick will be rydeing the tomorrow. Wonder if she will have any new ryder "learning curve" issues? Hoping that all goes well though.

    BRP would be well served if they were to make a deal with her. Like her or not. She puts a spotlight on everything she's involved with.

    If she ends up with a , I am guessing that she won't have to pay a dime. Also have wondered if Leno paid for his serial #1 unit. That is one of the perks for the rich and famous. They get a lot of free "stuff". To paraphrase Bob in the next post: I don't begrudge these people either. But I also wish I was in on the "take".
