Re: AUTOCOM ON 2014 RT
Looks like a nice neat DIY installation. The Dealers wanted £200 to install Sat. Nav. & Autocom equipment on my 2012 RT, took the DIY option. It must be only the SPA unit that has a power point for the Bluetooth module. Powering the Bluetooth Module:- http://www.autocom.co.uk/manuals/BTM02AManua...

Yes, it's an RT Forum, therefore, all members will own one, however, you may have or had more than one bike.
I've also got a 1981 Yamaha XJ650.

Nice looking bike, was tempted by the Anniversary model myself.
The sticker above the headlight suggests you have done some touring.

Re: GS or Rt
If stopping & starting plus slow speed machine control is a concern, it may be worth considering looking at i2i Motorcycle Academy, http://www.i2imca.com/.
You'll be amazed at what you can do on 2 wheels, may consider keeping the GS you love & saving some money, just a thought.
