Loving the idea of 200 miles between fuel stops out west. Just got a 15 RT-S and the first two tanks avg about 38 mpg, but we will get a better idea on the way to SpyderFest. A 20 % increase in fuel economy along with a 20 percent increase in HP, and a 100 percent improvement in oil change intervals! Whats not to like? Only a few more crevices to clean on the front fenders and the missing frunk button, but I guess we'll take it.... I guess I'll change oil the first time when we get back

Bob, you're a lot smoother on the loud handle than I. No patience on my part, I guess.
Artillery lends dignity to what would
otherwise be a vulgar brawl.

love it for the performace and mileage
I really like the fact that i can travel over 100 miles, 110 to 120 and the gas gauge is just down to 1/2 tank. Really! I know, without a doubt, that 200 miles on a tank is there if I need it. Period. Guys, I drive it more on the hard side than the soft side. I don't use eco mode because, as you know, it limits the throttle body from opening limiting full performance.. As others have stated, my 2010 998 would be stretching it to go 160 or 170 along with being nervous looking for a station. I loved the 998 and the high RPM performance it is designed for but it was not for the touring that I enjoy. With the 1330 the performance is there along with the torque and a more relaxed feel. I think the 998 is still a good engine for the ST and RS models. BRP could bump the HP back up to 106 (as it used to be) or even 110 and it would be even hotter.
Happy Spyderlovers

Patience is a virtue, that a lot of us cannot wait to acquire...
