Oklahoma Spyder

Not to repeat others I will keep it brief. I recieved a call from my dealer Friday Jan 31, that 4 crates had arrived. We filled out papers including ext warranty and Sat morning I went in and left my 2013 limited for a 2014 Timeless Black RTS . It is now my 4th Spyder since May of 2008. I will repeat the words "WOW" and that "they got this one right." I did go home after a day and put my Ulimate Seat and Back Rest on because it was the Tall boy and I kept it. Let me say WOW again for all of the reasons people are listing!!
However, I can say one thing different that I noticed. The techs told me that the eco button does change the power band like it does on one of the Can-Am side by sides. Not sure to believe them or not I tested it this way. Run about 40 mph in 4th with the eco button on and hold the trottle very steady. Keep it frozen there and turn the eco button off. About 1.5 to 2 seconds after you turn it off you will notice a definite increase in power without moving the throttle. In my opinion the eco button and light is more than just telling you to shift!! As far as "performance farckles" go, this one is so spot on it could be "Perfomance Farckle Free". (PFF) For this experienced spyder guy. Snow all this week in Oklahoma so just waiting for the next hundred miles!
