• 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.

can't remember the thread but there is one where peeps are discussing sales (and that BRP won't release figures) but i asked my dealer and he said he sold about 2 RTs for every 1 RS last year.
and they ordered according to those figures but this year he says RS is outselling the RT.
i figure this is due to pricepoint and more visibility (let's be honest the more people that ryde the more of the cheaper ones are gonna sell).

i mean no disrespect here, i own and love my RR-S, but one day hope to own an RT-S too. no trade ins i plan to own my RS for life (unless i trade her in for a new RS in a few years....).
 
2 rs's here both together for the price of an RT i don't care to have my cell phone or music ringing in my ear as I ride, I ride to get away from all that you need every bit of attention you can muster to stay alive when you ride and I don't feel a locked throttle or trailer is safe either if you need to carry that much stuff get a convertible. I want the lighter feel and performance of the rs after being on 2 wheels all my life 200 more lbs and way more to go wrong no thanks not trying to start any war's im glad the RT came out as it sells well to the gold wing crowd and increases the chance the spyder breed survies just my feelings
 
there are 2 kinds of people in this world....those who ride rt's and the rest of you:roflblack::roflblack::roflblack: just kidding I have an rt limited but I really wanted the rss but with 5 back operations the rt was more logical....oh and im 45 maybe one of if not the youngest rt owner in Edmonton Alberta. And if your rs is yellow you must have been following the line painting truck to close:yes: dont worry it will wash off
 
So far I have had 2 RTs's SEe5's A 2011 and a 2012 the 11 was lost due to a hit in an intersection by a red light runner Oh well I have loved both but I do think I like the 12 just a little bit better!:ohyea:

Love my GS. Tried sitting on RT couple of times & just kept wondering who needs to carry that much stuff with them? Although to be fair, my 70+ year old Mother thinks the RTs are cool :D
 
RT- Here

2011 - RT-S...one minor issue early on with air bag, since then 8k miles no issues, no limps, no mods.... Much less issues than my boats and motorhomes have had for sure.
 
Just my opinion, " RT Limited here!

Those who ride the RT's look for Comfort, Style, and Performance, and are willing to pay the PRICE!
:ohyea:

The others..............................................................................................................................
:hun:

Comfort- yes.

Style- highly debatable and depends on what style you like.

Performance- Your incorrect if you think the RT out performs the RS. :roflblack:

I would prefer a mixture between RS/RT - the engine and the front of the RT (maybe a little "smaller") .. the back odf the RS (don`t neeed the luggage if I ryde alone..) .. and a 2-colour painting ..
