No, not the exhaust brothers. This is a tale of two brothers from Texas. It all began when Bob (the younger one, he likes it when I say that) happened to spot a weird looking machine in the Houston area - he followed it long enough to see the Can Am logo on the side. He informed me of his observation -- after my research my wife, Pat, and I visited our local (Longview, TX) Can Am dealer. After a test ride of the SM5, I did not care for the transmission and was ready to go home. The sales rep said "try the SE5". After a brief test ride: SOLD. We had just purchased a 2008, Red, Spyder. Now go up a few years - to last year in March. While visiting Bob, it was suggested by him to pay a visit to his local Can Am dealer - in Conroe. Long story short; he purchased a 2012 RT Lava Bronze Limited Edition! That was on his birthday, March 19th. Now go to this past March 19th when I located a 2010 RT-S for sale and purchased it on his birthday, March 19, 2013! I kept it a secret from him until I rode down for a visit a couple of weeks ago. Imagine his surprise when I pulled into his driveway. A brief description of my RT: had just over 2,000 miles on it when I purchased it - has Seal floorboards (gosh, I love them!!) - custom Corbin seat that is made from Alligator hide (after all, it was purchased originally by a gentleman in LA!). I've added some wood looking trim to the dash area (Burl). I am going to attempt to add some photos here - hope that it works.
