Could this be the Winter deal thing ?

I had a Stage III installed on my 2017 RGS, the tuner will get it close, but the dyno will do a much better job and it will be ready to run when you get the bike back. The bike has 112 hp and 120 torque. Hope it helps,,

That's a screaming deal. The stage 3 kit alone is $1595 before taxes. Definitely sounds like you got a good deal.

That's the ONLY good thing about the snow! It does create some good deals from snowed in dealers and my bike is just sitting so it's a win-win!

You got a really great deal. I guess there is something good about being snowed in for four months of the year.
