New plans for a Can-Am

[sddinnh]

Well, the 2013 ST Limited didn't work out for a couple reasons. So I went ahead and sprung for a 2014 RT Limited. Lot more money, but ........ They'll have it ready for tomorrow morning. epper:

Yes, I know pictures, but you'll have to wait until tomorrow.

Know you're excited! I think you made the right decision on the 2014. Yes, post pics. ThumbUp

the '14 is a better machine, that's the loaded model right.

Yup, GPS, Cruise Control, Radio w/I-pod hookup, ABS, new 1330 3 cyl, 6 spd, etc. Heck, it even comes with bag liners. As fancy as my Wing and K1600LT were, they didn't even do that. :laugh: I may do a wing over with a Hannigan setup at some point, but it'll have to wait till winter so I don't loose any riding time.

I'm doing the Gaspe and Nova Scotia this year so it'll feel right home back up in Canada

Congrats sir, enjoy. Will be watching for those pics.

Congrats on the '14. Enjoy the Gaspe and don't forget your English/French dictionary. Made things interesting for me 25 years ago on a ride up that way. Think Digby, NS also. Nice town.

Where have you NOT been Andrew??

The 14 ACE 1330 is awesome! We are loving ours! Tom :Trike1:

enjoy that new ride. we have a 13 RT Limited and love it. might suggest adding a Baja Ron Sway bar and then a third and fourth brake light. also love the turn signals we added to the mirrors as well.

show us some pics when you can.

Haven't been to Asia, Australia or Antarctica yet (been well above the Artic circle though). Also haven't hit Central America yet.:qpnmt:

Enjoy the new ride. Maybe we'll run into each other sometime. I'm in the lower western corner of New Hampshire. I have a 2012 RT Limited and love it, but I'm looking forward to trying out the 2014s and possibly moving up if they are that much better. I'm hoping that it is more like my GoldWing trike for RPMs and gas mileage.<br />

</div>Yah we might Rick. I live in Northwood (about 1/2 between Concord & Portsmouth), but I have a buddy that lives in Vermont so I'm over that way quite a bit. I never owned anything except the 14 so I wouldn't know if their that much better than the 12's or not. <img src="images/smilies/laugh.gif" border="0" alt="" title="Laugh" class="inlineimg" /> I can tell you I'm getting about 36 MPG without running in eco mode and it cruises at about 3000 rpm if that helps. Should be about 215 miles of range which should be about the same as a Wing.<br />

When in Nova Scotia, besides Halifax, be sure to try to schedule a visit to Peggy's Cove, Mahone Bay and Lunenburg - all picturesque locations.

Wow ! A NH Spyder and nobody invited him to the NE TT Rally.

Very nice. I get stuck in traffic at time with mine (2012), and it gets pretty warm on the right foot. I haven't done any mods to mine like block offs or new holes in the belly pan. Have you had the opportunity to try out the reverse air flow through the radiators? Only happen at very low speeds like traffic jams.

No problem with the 2014 - runs nice and cool - you can tell when the radiators are blowing air backward - very loud :laugh:
