After a long punishing 2 weeks :gaah: yeah I know people have had there's in the shop longer a BIG thanks to my local and GREAT dealer J&J powersports and BRP (Steve) !!!!!

Got all the updates done and some pretty nifty new side panels. :2thumbs:

Didn't get to ride much today but even with the pipes unwrapped and nothing else done the bike was a lot cooler and rode so much better with the new computer update . It's real nice to have it back in the garage it was MISSED very much.

Heres some pics , they left the big stickers off but gave them to me I case I wanted to leave them off, which my wife likes it better off but still wants that big black transparent spyder on the front so guess that will happen

Here's some pics

Thanks looks like the panel around the fog lights are new also . Gotta give it a good run to see how they do but did notice a difference on the run from the dealer

Good to see its back and road worthy! It's a sickening feeling wondering what's going on with your machine at the dealer when it's behind closed doors.....haha.

Is the fender alignment ok now?

They replaced the cover and the fender bracket. It doesn't hit now but still not as much clearance as the right side , very close but I guess as long as it doesn't hit I'm good.

Looking good, very good

I like those new panels, and would consider putting them on my '13 RS-S.

Hope they do a good job of cooling things down. Please do, Keep us informed thanks.

Only happy trails...

Ive only done a couple short rides , Saturday the 6th my dealer has a all day ride so we will see how it does . Does feel better , I can tell ya that the reflash they did on the computor is a improvement , the responsiveness from the bike is a lot better and my poor back tire is not liking it , spins ALOT easier.:2thumbs:

Took a pretty nice ride the other night and although it wasn't real hot out only had a 4 bar reading on the temp guage and the panels were warmer but no were near hot

 

[ChasCS]

How were these panels acquired?

So they work as good as they look...
Did you have to pay for them, or were they gifted to you from BRP?

I would appreciate some feedback DIRECTLY from BRP, but my email to them was ignored.
So I would ask you politely here. A pm reply would be fine too.
