Well I finally did it, demo'd the RT Ltd, I needed to ride it and get it off my mind. Well I was surprised; in a short period of time I tried my very best to find something wrong with that machine, I could not. The seat and lumbar support was comfy, wind management was excellent, loved the semi automatic paddle shift, sound system was very good, my passenger was satisfied. I do believe I could easily do a 500 mile day on that machine. I'm aware I cannot judge the performance in such a short ride, and I kept that in mind. I was comparing it with my 2005 gl1800/ 2012 Road Smith, and the RT Ltd far out performed it in every respect. That's just my opinion. I will probably return to the dealer early next week and see what they do on the bottom line and just how valuable my Road Smith is to them. I don't expect miracles, but if it's far out, I just continue doing what I'm doing. I am aware that machine is gonna cost to ride with all the maintenance required compared to GW but I ain't getting any younger, and so I will continue to investigate this new found toy.
