Combined with the Telelever front end, it handles twisty roads with the agility of a much smaller sportbike.The ShiftCam Motor: The variable valve timing provides effortless torque down low for easy overtaking, yet screams smoothly in the upper RPMs.Wind Protection: The redesigned front fairing and electric windscreen create a remarkably quiet, buffet-free cockpit pocket.The ConsFiddly Menu Ergonomics: Unlike the GS lineup, the RT forces you to dive into the TFT screen menus using the handlebar "Wonder Wheel" to adjust basic functions like heated grips or suspension settings, which can be distracting while riding.The Phone Cubby "Convection Oven": The dedicated, wireless-charging smartphone compartment is notorious for overheating modern phones when running full GPS navigation maps.Lack of Backlit Switches: For a premium luxury touring machine pushing past $26,000 MSRP when fully optioned, the lack of backlit handlebar switchgear is a surprising omission for night riding.
