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.

I think that is a pretty good price. As stated above, I would check to see if the heat issues have been taken care of. compared to the RS, I would suggest the ST for commuting over rs because of the increased wind protection and more upright riding position. But I am saying that because I am in the 49+ age group with some back issues.

They tell me all updates have been done to the machine. Not sure about the scoops. Here is a link to the listing. http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/mcd/5341071819.html

Based on the pictures from the dealer, the side panels have not been replaced for the heat issues. The 2014 side panels have air inlet scoops and replace the side panels on the 2013
ST models. This is all on BRP, not the owner! Make sure the dealer gets this done before you take possession of it. BRP supplies the 2 panels to the dealer and they pay the dealer for
about 1.5 hours of labor. I know, it had to be done to my Spyder. Price sounds good!
Good luck!:thumbup:

Try to ride both to decide which will work best. If nothing else, spend some time sitting on them. The ST and RS are very similar but do have a few noticeable differences.
The biggest differences are wind protection, suspension, and foot position. If your into windshields the ST is for you, but plenty of shields are available for the RS too. The ST has your feet a bit more in front of you while the RS has your feet more under you. The RS stock seat is horrible, but the ST stocker is pretty good for what it is (they are also interchangeable) The RSS already has the upgraded front shocks while the ST is going to feel more mushy with much more noticeable sway (also interchangeable/upgradeable). The RS is a few lbs lighter so it is a bit quicker. The ST "feels" bigger when sitting on it as the front upper fairing is bigger.
They are both great machines but spend some time and choose what fits you best. Good Luck[emoji106]

I found the difference between the ST and RSS will be your riding position for the most part.. Which ever fits your style and your posture best should be the best argument for purchasing one or the other.. My wife has a ST and fits her fine..Yes the 10k price is a great buy.. Good luck with your choice..
