Would never have believed it!!!

I've had a tough time buying in to all the talk of the improvements coming from the 1330 platform and the 6 speed over previous models. I finally decided to trade a 2012 RT L for 2015. I didn't even ride it first. I just took everybody's word for it. Turns out you were all right on the mark. Thanks to all that post on this forum. It's a wealth of good information. Keep coming with it.

:congrats: on the new Spyder. :2thumbs:

(Although those of us in the 998 club are sorry to see you leave.)

See we told you so! The all new front suspension over the 13 is what I like most. Change was to the 14 and later.

Welcome to Animal Crackers Zoo and the mighty "1330" club.

Nothing wrong with the 998; it will run like bat out he** Only thing that used to bother me was when I would be cruising cross country revving 5,500 rpms or a little more, my old man's ears would tell my brain to shift into high gear and I was already in fifth gear

Besides, now I not only run much lower rpms, I have another gallon of fuel. These things are a LOT of PHUN

Did the same - traded in my 2012 RT Limited

No regrets...love the 2014 RT Limited with the 1330 engine / 6 speed trans platform. We have 26,000+ trouble free miles on it now and will ride a few more days before putting it away for winter. It's been a GREAT bike. I do have to say my 2012 RT Limited was a good bike as well, but I like the lower RPM's when cruisin' ...less vibration and noise.

My 2014 RT Limited is a "keeper"!

Congrats on trading up - you'll love it - enjoy! hyea:hyea:hyea:

 

[hellridgeryder]

Don't anybody get me wrong. I loved my 2012 and want to help my dealer find it a good home but for me the improvements were worth the trade.

 

[Chupaca]

No doubt; there's a lot of really good bikes showing up on the market now. nojoke
Here's to hoping that your old bike finds a new home that's worthy of it!! :cheers: :thumbup:

Me Too!!!!

I traded mt 2010 RTS for a 2015RTL and never did a test ride. After we had signed all the paperwork my wife said that very thing " We never even road the new one" .

There's a saying:
Once you've tried three; you'll say "That's for ME!" :thumbup:

I'm a beliver

I also moved up to a 2015 RT Limited Pearl White, sold my 2012 RTS great trike but cruising at 5 to 6000 Rpm's wasn't likeable for me , who as been riding for 50 + years at 3000. I believe they finally got it right.
I would like to join the 1330 club, are there any rules or a oath to take ?
Just did my 600 + brake in taking off for Tombstone AZ tomorrow for a trike in should have the 3000 MI oil change by then.
Been reading we need to lower the oil by 1/2 qt. To the low end of the dip stick. I used a hand pump through the dip stick tube and will recheck it before we leave. My question is why didn't the factory send out a notice to all new 1330 owners if it can be harmful to the motor/trans. ? Mine was above the full mark from the factory. Anyone had this issue addressed to them or the proper way to check the oil. Well I take it back, they almost got it right.
Any way it's a keeper nothing perfect. Really enjoy the forum and the wealth of information , now can I join??
