    Default 2014 RT-Ltd

    My cognac RT-Ltd should be ready for delivery by Thursday. Hopefully the tri-ax bars come in time but the CB won't be in until the 27th so it will go back then for that install then anyway. There won't be be much riding time left up here in NW Ohio but might get lucky and have a mild November. I have ridden on Thanksgiving day before.

    This is easy...

    Ride South!
    If you hit water after 1200 miles or so, flip a coin, for the left, or right turn...
    Keep flipping the coins, when you've got water starting back at you!

    Congrats on the new Spyder. I bought my RT-S in mid July & have 5300 miles on it & LOVE it. How much is the dealer charging you to install the Tri-Axis bars?? MarcusB

    The tri-ax install is 3.5 hours. Total labor for bars, CB and trailer hitch & wiring was abt $800.

    Hope I make it to Honda East Toledo! I found yesterday that after my 1700+ mile trip to Lamonster's BBQ last week that the rear tire on the '10 RT-L is completely bald in the center. Yikes! It had plenty of tread when I left.

    SNAFU! Turns out the GPS mount is different for the tri-ax bars. It will be overnighted and I'll get tomorrow. Bummed!

    Well got it home about 6:00 tonight. I only got to put 20 miles on it and it is unbelievable. The 1330 and 6-speed are amazing. Can't wait to start putting in the miles and of course the farkling.
    I couldn't bring the trailer home. They have the four wire plug attached but there is another wiring adapter required that they had to order. I don't plan on needing anytime soon anyway.

    I made my first mod yesterday. I swapped the fuse for the rear trunk 12 V receptacle per Lamonster's video so it would be active all the time (battery). I'm waiting for the adapter to arrive so I can plug the Battery Tender into that receptacle.

    You're up very close to Maumee Bay State Park, I've been through Curtice a few times. I take it you purchased your ryde from Honda East in Maumee as he's the nearest dealer to you. I'm in Fostoria about 40 miles due South of you. I deal with American Powersports in Findlay.

    Yep I'm about 5 miles directly south of the park and go there twice a day with our dog for our walks. I bought the '10 RTS from J & J Sales in Huron (long story) but was too inconvenient for routine service so went back with Honda East. I stopped by APS and they were accommodating on getting me in and out quickly for maintenance but wanted me to sign a waiver to put my Amsoil in it. Never went back. Honda East gave me a good deal on my '14.

    Gotta call that trailer was finally wired per BRP's instructions to work with my Ltd. Rode over to Honda East and nope not this time! Running and brake lights worked correctly but turns were reversed. The tech said he will call BRP again and get it fixed by this afternoon. I've got my fingers crossed that they geturdone today.
