• 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.

Convert a RT to a St?

Saw a topic about throwing a 2014 RT engine into a 2013 RT but what I would to know is can you convert a RT to a ST? I don't want the back, etc and wish BRP would've just offered a ST with the same engine.
 
The bodywork is so integrated that I'd have to call this one a, "You can't get there from here" exercise...
Removing the RT's tailpiece would leave you with fabricating all kinds of bodywork...
...and taillights, brakelights, turnsignals... :shocked:

I also doubt that you could even shoehorn the Triple under the ST's bodywork if you tried to tackle it from that angle...
 
Next year the ST will have the bigger engine

BRP is taking care of us older folks :roflblack::roflblack: First

I agree, if you listen to some of the new BRP videos pertaining to the 2014 RT, they mention the modified frame to accomodate the new engine.

One more point, the 3 cylinder and 6 speed transmission alone must sell between $ 5000.00 to $ 7500.00 if not more, I think I would wait.

:agree: :roflblack::roflblack:

My prediction for 2014 was wrong because I said no new engine--just color and fascia changes.

Would you like me to predict for 2015 about triples for the ST? Maybe that will help the process. :roflblack::roflblack:
