• 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.

Guys, I need a little help...

With pictures and videos!
That new color, "Cognac" is proving tough to describe consistently...
If you've got a picture or video of an RT dressed up in it; please post it in here.
I'd like to get as many of the different pictures in one place, so that a comparison can be made.
It seems that this color really changes it's appearance under differing lighting conditions... :shocked:
THANKS!! :thumbup::D

It's a gorgeous color!! The thing that will steer me away from it will be it's probable over use.. I will make my decision after I ride one next month.. The color looks exactly like Brazen Orange,, used on the 2006 GTO that had lots of gold / orange pearl in the formula.. It looks like burnt orange until any bright light hits it and then it TAKES OFF!!!
 
While I think the Cognac color is nice it would require that I purchase an entirely new closet of riding clothes. That is why I am going with white as it goes with everything. The yellow was a color that I didn't like when I saw it in pictures but I really liked it in person.
 
Down boy..!!

hang in there all the pic's in the world will not compare to having it in your garage and seeing it with your own eyes...try pouring a few cognac's, holding them up to the light then drink them and relax...!! :roflblack:
 
If I drink that much cognac; it's lights out! :D

Ann,
The Missus has already said that what we've got; is what we'll be wearing! :shocked:

I would agree. The Yellow looked entirely different in person than photos. Much deeper and better looking in person. I'm betting the Cognac will be the same way. :thumbup:
 
I'm an experimental color engineer and the color samples that we've seen are accurate / Burnt Orange / straight light / overcast.. Bright pearl orange gold in the sun or artificial bright light.. Like many,, you will make up your mind when it's sitting in front of you.. I'm pretty sure if I get a 14 I will lean towards yellow cause you won't be able to swing a dead cat without hitting a Congnac Spyder :)
 
Some videos might help too! Thereis a scene in this with a lot of the burnt orange RT in it.


And of course the BRP video

I've got a deposit on a cognac 2014, but I'll probably end up getting either a white or black one. OTOH, who knows how I'll react after I actually see it...
