[Spyderal11]

I like a lot of things on the new ones can't wait to ride one.:yes:

 

[SpyderDen]

Now I'm thinking

 

[StanProff]

I might be able to hold off a while if they don't offer a blue one. Can't help it, I like blue.

I love what I am seeing but I usually will not buy the first model year of anything. However, kudos to anyone who does. That motor sounds exactly like what I want. Lamont, my wife asked about how it sounds. A smoother purr getting closer to the sound of a Wing?

Lamonster: any idea on pricing on the sport fender, and can the new RS-S panels be retrofitted to an older RSS?

Have to admit that I do like the changes, more torque, better range and better air flow. It's nice that BRP "tested the engine for 3 yrs". I hope those that buy have good luck. I was under the impression that they may have "tested the airflow" on the 2013s before they were sent to new homes, but I must have been WRONG!

Don't get me wrong. I really enjoy riding my RT, but I am a bit concerned that my $30M investment will probably tank, now that BRP ADMITS there WAS a bit of an air flow/heat problem. I understand that improvements are made each year, but why do I feel as tho I have purchased a 2013 CHEVETTE???? :banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:

Most everything we asked for.

It has to be remembered that this is a fluid cooled motor and if the cooling system is adequate then no such problems should exist.
I'm old enough to remember both the Triumph Trident and the BSA Rocket Three which both suffered center cylinder overheating problems,
but it has to be remembered that these were air-cooled motors and even the later Triumphs in the guise of the T160V overcame the problem
as did Laverda in Italy.
With modern engine technology there should be absolutely no such difficulties any more than with say a modern four cylinder car engine.

I really hope so. I would like to see this engine in the STS so that my wife wouldn't have to stop for gas so much when we go riding. She loves the STS and wants to buy one in a couple of years. An engine like this would be the cats meow if it lives up to the hype.

I have not seen the pricing on the fender yet, sorry.

It has a very unique sound. Pretty tame compared to a v-twin.

You thought it was an investment? I thought it was a toy when I bought mine . . . still do and I still plan to have fun with it.

 

[PrairieSpyder]

When will they hit the showrooms?

 

[Spyder_Cowgirl]

Color

I can't decide between a White RTS-SM6 or a Yellow RTS-SM6. What do you think?

Ann .... go with the white! Blank canvas to work with ... add whatever you like (wrap, paint, etc).

Best Regards .... Ann (yeah, it's me again ... with no "e")

Now the dilemma

Was all ready to buy a 2013 Limited tomorrow but man the 2014 looks like a sure winner. Sure it's always a bit of a risk to dive into the first model year but is it really more of a risk than the 2013?


Huge price difference of course and I'm sure that the 2.9% financing won't be there. Wonder if the right mix is to buy the 2013 then trade up a year from now to the 2014 when the September sales hit?


Regardless, nice nice job by BRP.

 

[stevedfive]

The new RT has a 6.9 gal gas tank.

 

[Bob Denman]

Ann,
Go for the White one; yellow didn't work out so well... :shocked:

 

[dannyg]

New promotion

They just bumped the promotion for older models to include a 4yr warranty while holding the financing at 2.9% and 3k in rebates.

I wouldn't touch a 2013 if they were giving them away. Way too many heat issues for 2103. Way too many improvements for 2014.
