I might hold the record for changing the configuration the most times. Back and forth between the R1S and R1T. I went for max pack, so Jan+ group. I will need to test drive / get more feedback before deciding. Leaning towards the 22 sport because 95 percent of my driving will be on the road.
Yeah unfortunately for $3,500 I think you'll have people rattle canning their own.. Or plasti-dipping, or taking to a paint shop for 1/4 the price."R1T version" and "R1S version" don't really make sense anymore, to noobs anyway. The configurator defaults to the 21" and all 3 20" AT options are available for the same cost on an R1T or an R1S. Is the "R1T version" the one that doesn't have a dark version of the same shape?
Unfortunately, I'll bet the "R1T AT" that people seem to prefer will get the worst EPA numbers of the bunch.
To me, the "dark AT" option is the best looking choice, but $3,500 is a pretty pricey upgrade, IMO. How much would it usually cost to black powder coat a set of wheels? If <$1,700, it seems like it would make more sense to just get the regular ones and do that instead of getting the dark ones from the start.
Not true. I was told by my Guide that wheel selection is, in fact, a contributing factor WRT delivery timing.They said wheel choice isn't a factor for delivery timing. It seems to only be based on exterior color, interior color, delivery location, then order number.
I agree, very pricey upgrade. Iām in FLA and will probably get someone to do it in Tampa."R1T version" and "R1S version" don't really make sense anymore, to noobs anyway.
