    Default New for 2021 RT Limited (LOOK)

    Let me start off by saying that i only know that this is on the 2021 RT-Limited models

    1) Dash Lighting Mode Selector, allows the dash lighting to automatically change from color to a white background with black numbers in bright sunlight (easier to see)

    2) Belt Tensioner

    3) Software version (See Chart Below)

    4) that's all i know so far

    Stayed tuned as i ride it more i will find more

    BRP SW v710007221
    GSS SW v040.60 CSS SW v040.60
    HW Version G07 BL SW vS40.60

    (i believe this to be the latest software update)

    Wish that white background would stay on more in very bright times of the day. I'm still learning coming from a 2015 RTS. I haven't had much seat time yet.

    The windshield going down when you shut the bike off drives me crazy. Yamaha stopped this on the FJR1300 due to customer complaints a long time ago.

    You can turn the white dash on all the time in settings. I can't figure out why they have the windshield going up and down every shut off and start cycle either. They must want to advertise the windshield moves or build sales for windshield motors.

    I have a 2019 RT SE6 so I can't speak to how the electric windshield works on a Spyder, but previously, I had a Kawasaki Concours and it did the same thing as you describe on the 21. It drove me crazy. If as soon as you turned off the ignition you quickly pushed the up/down button on the windshield it would then hold the position it was at and would not retract. Might be worth a try.

    That's exactly what happens. I do that when I'm changing out the windscreen or need to clean the bottom inside of the same. Next time you cycle the key, it'll revert to "normal".

    I kind of like the new set up. Less to get damaged when you've got a cover on the bike.

    The dash lighting mode selector is also on the 21 F3L bikes.

    Is a belt tensioner standard on a 2021 RT Limited?
