So, the good news and the bad news:

1) I got my Spyder RT-S (limited edition). I'd ordered an audio and convenience, but the shop kindly upgraded me to the ltd edition at no additional cost

2) The bad news. About 100 miles on the odometer the bike threw a code while running at about 50 mph. The warning 'light' illuminated and the RCC flashed an issue with the DPS. The engine light also illuminated. I think I also lost power, but I'm not really sure about that. In any event, few seconds later, power was fine.

I took the bike home (I couldn't feel any change to the steering), let it sit, and started it up, then drove it 15-20 miles. No recurrence of the code. I'm sure it's still stored in the computer, but I don't know how to get the codes on an RT.

To view active codes on the RT units do the following :

Turn key on, well depressing the mode and set buttons, push the turn signal button, screen will change and show any active codes.

If you post your PE #, I'll add you to the owners list, sorry about the issue, verify the tech used the latest version of the B.U.D.D S software when he preformed the PDI.
