2015 Bare bones Spyder?

[OldDog]

Forgive me if this has been discussed ad nauseam already, I 've been been kind of hit and miss on the forum lately.
When Lamont had the forum open for speculation about the 2015 models, I was intrigued by a bare bones Spyder for ~ $10000. What do you suppose that would be? I would prefer something on the order of the ST rather than the RS. JMHO.

:lecturef_smilie: We wondered where you disappeared to...
My "gut feeling", is that it would be something more along the lines of a de-contented RS...
We'll know in about six weeks!

Welcome back. Some ideas thrown around. Smaller engine, manual transmission, no reverse, just bare bones everything. Probably a good entry item, but the average person would soon grow tired of it, want more power, and probably farkel it to make it a "real" :spyder2:

Like Bob said, time will tell in about 6 weeks or so.

Yes, sounds great

Bare bones it all, but power plant an inline three, 1330 cc in it... ;-)

Your back..!!

Thinking a smaller version. There is a 250 cc out there close to what our spyders are and they may have checked it out. I think they might go 600+ but like the RS with no bells and whistles...:dontknow: We will see soon enough. Not seeing as much hype as last year so not expecting much...

I'm thinking a 600cc parallel twin, and a CVT tranny... ray:

There are lots of 2010, 2011 RSS in that price range. That would be my suggestion for an entry level Spyder. That is what I did and recently upgraded to the 2014 RT after 9 months.
