• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Dutchess Rec - several thumbs down

    We bought our RT-S from Dutchess Rec about a month ago. When we took delivery, we noticed that the right front panel had a chip in it. Not a big deal but when you're paying that kinda scratch for a new toy, you want it perfect, right? They were cool, they took a pic and said they would take...

    Spyder RT brake location

    Same here and it was almost a deal breaker for me. I got used to it pretty quickly.

    Service costs - Am I getting taken to the cleaners?

    Will do, Bob. FWIW, they've been servicing my Honda VT-1100 for a number of years now. My only issue is that their prices are a bit high. but they seem to be the only game in town unless I'm willing to travel out of the area. Since service usually requires the vehicle to be dropped off and...

    Service costs - Am I getting taken to the cleaners?

    Jeff, the service guy at Dutchess Rec, called me yesterday to apologize for the confusion. He said he was schooled by another owner. They now have it straight and have told the salespeople as well. All is good.

    Service costs - Am I getting taken to the cleaners?

    2015 RT-S. More than sure; I'm certain!!!! BUT after reading the manual more closely, I see that I misinterpreted how the manual is written. (Also, my girlfriend is positive that the salesman said to bring it in for service after 600 miles). The manual indicates how to actually operate the...

    Service costs - Am I getting taken to the cleaners?

    Thanks for the tips, everyone. Much appreciated. Not sure why Dutchess Rec is telling me that the first service is 600 miles. I'll call and postpone the service until we hit the first tru mark of 3,000. I do have to bring it back though, as one of the panels has a small gouge in it (it...

    Service costs - Am I getting taken to the cleaners?

    Greetings all. First post here by new RT-S owner. Had our toy for about a month now and it's time for the break-in service. I'm told that the service is around $300. After dropping nearly $26K, this seems a bit excessive. There is only one authorized service facility in our area. Does this...
