Whos NOT upgrading to 2014 ?

[ARtraveler]

Keeping 2011 rt-s. 25,000 miles and counting

To upgrade the new one needs:

shaft drive

1800 cc's

metal flake red

1/2 a nanny. :doorag:

It may take a while for all or some of the above happening. I am glad that they went 1330 cc and added a cylinder and an extra gear. New colors every year is the norm, as it seems to be done in place of major upgrades.

Sounds like a Goldwing Trike to me....

I want to but no viper red-----

I would LOVE to trade my 2012 RTS-SE5 in for a 2014----but there is NO VIPER RED in this model year's line up, how they couldn't come up with a VIPER RED for 2014 is beyond logic. Are they not looking at sales and colors? Red is highly visiable, beautiful and goes along with our Red Pick up truck!

So---come on BRP---bring us a VIPER RED 2014 and we'll buy! I too am all for a SHAFT DRIVE as well---especially living in the country on a gravel road!

Hmmm. I guess I'll just stick with what I have then... :roflblack::thumbup::roflblack:

Count me in the no trade column.

Since we have the other side reporting in I thought the obverse view should be heard. While I like a lot of what they did to the 2014 I will continue with my 2013 at least till 2015. I want to see what BRP does with both years and am hoping values recover from the current amount mine is worth. Other than a laser alignment, I have no major issues (yet) to deal with.

keeping my 12. Plenty good ride for us. Also, paid for. Gave up years ago trying to keep up with the Jones's.

 

[AZSPYDER]

Keeping my 09 GS. Like it a lot and zero problems

I heard from a reliable source that shall not be named that Jones is not upgrading to a 2014 but keeping his 2012.:roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:

Well, I did part ways with my 2010 RTS, but, personally, I wouldn't consider a 2014. Given the history (2012 - 2013), I won't even look at one until 2016 - and then ONLY, if my Honda becomes too much to handle....JMHO

Not sure why you included 2012 in that statement. As far as I can tell, 2012 has been a great year. Yes, your lower right leg could get a little warm when stalled in traffic on a hot day but many motorcycles have that same problem (i.e. heat off the engine, thinking Harley-Davidson). But the 2013 problems were brought about by the not so bright idea to redirect heat from the rider towards the engine.

2010 RT-S SE5 Happy Happy Happy !

I am very happy with 2010 Rts , bought it with only 1000KM on unit. 2011 was first year I had it and this season just got accessories put on it and very happy with it.
I will not buy a new one for another couple of years .:yes: Have had no problems with my Spyder

 

[bullant12]

I'm happy with my '13 RT-S SM5... Maybe should have hanged to the 2010 until the bigger engine came out... but I did what I did and I am keeping the '13 for a while... not going to loose money over one year!:thumbup:

I may wait until the 2018 10th Anniversary Edition or 2020 RT 10th Anniversary Edition....

 

[GuitarPlayer]

I'm very happy with my 2013 RT-Ltd. Over 10,000 miles from April to October. Can't wait until the weather warms up and the snow disappears. Besides, I can't afford to upgrade anyway.

[Netminder]

Sticking with my 2012, at least until it is paid!

 

[ridesilver2009]

2014 RT Upgrade? No Way !

Keeping our '09 GS SM5 and '12 RT-S SM5 until BRP and users get the bugs worked out. Then I might think about it in a couple or three years.

 

[Mets79ST2013]

Not upgrading

I'm not upgrading from my 2013 ST-S till maybe 2015 I want to make sure the new ST-S has no issues, till then I will ride this one.

 

[WarrenGH]

Not Upgrading...

Not upgrading. I have a 2011 with 9,000 miles on it that's up for sale for what I still owe on it. I just don't have the time to ride it anymore.

 

[Mets79ST2013]

Not ready

My 2013 ST-S will stay with me at least till 2015, for me to get a new machine BRP has to fix everything first, I just order to add the heat it grips for now on my ride, besides that maybe fog lights....now if the give me what I pay for my 2013 I would jump on the 14 today....

 

[arntufun]

I would be a fool if I traded the only Spyder ever built that actually increases in value every year (08 PE).

 

[jerpinoy]

It was my dream machine ever since I first saw it at January 2012 motorcycle show. Although I managed to purchase it only in September 2013 I was absolutely blown away by my experience with it compared to a two-wheeler before that. I intend to remain loyal and am not planning to part with it.

:agree: and feel the same way. My only mods are floorboards and brake pedal which I made them my self exclusively.
