Alignments are usually not a part of the assembly process. That's where the "wheel & deal" comes in.
I have posted here a few times regarding the purchase of my new RT Limited. I found a dealer whose price was fair and I have a shipper lined up. Keeping my fingers crossed. Bike is supposed to be picked up next Saturday the 23rd. Wish me luck!
My advice is to just ride your Spyder for many, many miles before doing anything to it other than cosmetic stuff. You can read this forum and become convinced that you need this, you need that, it's going to fall apart unless you do X and Y. Well, some of us find that our Spyder is **JUST FINE** the way it came from the factory. Would the stuff promoted on this forum make it better yet? Maybe so. I wouldn't know because I'm happy with my Spyder as-is. Maybe you will notice problems that I don't. But you darned sure won't be able to tell if this stuff actually improves your Spyder if you don't FIRST ride your Spyder for a lot of miles WITHOUT it. Just enjoy your ride and don't worry about stuff.
I went way out of my comfort zone on the color. I am fairly conservative and picked the Orange. Its a leap for me. The safety factor(whether real or imaginable) is why I went with the Orange.
My suggestion is that if you are going with the RT, wait for the 2020 model, completely redone and should be nicer
