Arrrrrgh!
Stopped by Mountain Motor Sports - Conyers. Took new 2014 (RTS, SE6, Cognac) for a spin.
Hmmm...NICE sound, NICE pickup, NICE cornering, NICE shift (no clunks). And I have yet to get one up to hiway speeds and check out the 6th gear cruise. This is the way they should have built them from ground zero (thank you BRP for listening to your consumers). Love this machine! Arrrrrgh, now trying to justify NOT upgrading. This is not good. I just retired and am looking at way to spend more money.
If you haven't tried one, you owe it to yourself to do so.
BAD NEWS. Still to check with my XENON depot HDs and Lamonster NBVs are transferable.
Damn, damn and triple damn!

Mel likes your present Spyder so just give it to her and take the plunge on the '14 for you. It's only money... you can find something to cut back on in order to afford the new one.
Don't see you guys registered for SpyderFest.
Penny and Rick have owned many motorcycles starting in 1974 with Hondas, then to Suzukis, Gold Wings and ultimately Spyders.
74 Honda 360T (pair); 78 Suzuki GS 1000 (pair); 82 Honda Aspencade; 84 Honda 400; 87 Yamaha 1100; 99 Honda Valkyrie; 01 Suzuki Burgman(triked); 02 Honda GL 1800(triked); 10 Spyder RTSE; 11 Spyder RTSM; 12 Spyder RTSL (pair); 20 Spyder RTL (current)

1) Re: Spyderfest, our big vacation this year will be Disney World with family and friends.
2) Mel does NOT want her own RT. ST, that is another flavor. But...will only have one Spyder.

You will love it. Should be there about 'break-up'. Course, it has been warmer up there than down here last week.

I'm sure the 2014 would be nice. I would have to get the middle model as that's the one offered in any kind of yellow. But since I've got new tire on my 2010 and it's paid for, I'm sticking with it for now.

I would not rush in to buy a 2014 RT. Look at the 2013 ST & RT problems, I would wait till more people buy the 2014 models and test them.
