    My only problem is keeping gas in it. I have approximately 9500 miles on it since June.

    Default 1 Problem

    My 2015 RTS SE6 had a bad gear position sensor. Evidently BRP knew the VINs. Only problem was my dealer wanted to wait until he had the part before he called me. Sensor went out 60 miles from home. I got a ride, dealer retrieved the Spyder. Was fixed the next day and has been terrific since.

    Have the 2015 RT Limited with 6000 miles so far. No problems. Overall from what I read on here and in talking to others with these machines, they are reliable, trouble free machines, but, there is always a very small percentage chance that with anything mechanical, you could get problems - hope this doesn't happen to you.
