I saw some new Jayco models advertised (e.g. Eagle Superlite 314BHS) but the website does not appear to have them. AM I missing something?
I was also looking for a picture of the new bike rack that apparently comes on the 2009 Eagle 314BHDS.

You are correct, Jayco has not updated their website with the 2009 models yet.
Some dealers have some pictures of the 09 models they have in stock but I have not seen a picture of the new bike rack option either.

Thanks...so it's not just me. I would have thought that they would have them advertised on their website before they hit the dealers. Oh well.
BTW, Rob_Fla, nice looking rig!

Funny how Jayco said they would void their warranty if a bike rack was mounted on their trailers and then they come out with one in the 2009 models???

We looked at them when we were shopping around, the Eagle Superlites are the last year's LTG floorplans from the jayfeather line. We didn't see the bike rack though. They were to heavy/long for our needs to so we moved.

Happy trails,
Just curious on this voiding the warranty business? Do you mean on the back bumper?

Hey Joe - Enjoy the tour and let us know if you find out about the bike rack. And no ... I am not looking to purchase a new TT!! Someone mentioned the bike rack in another thread and I was trying to find it on the internet.

browns,
How's this for finding out...
You will notice in the pictures of the rack...they have created a track that the bike rack slides on to pull out. I specifically asked them on my unit about a 2" receiver bolted to the SAME part of the frame on my JayFlight would work and they said yes...just do NOT use the bumper!
Also notice in the picture that the rear stabilizer jacks mount to the bottom of the bike rack slide...
So...the tour was cool...The facility is VERY impressive. The people are VERY friendly and know what they are talking about. The Amish workers HUSTLE to build units but also one sample is pulled from each day's production run...if ANYTHING is wrong with that one unit...ALL that day's units are pulled and inspected.
I can highly recommend anyone that visits this area...call Jayco and take the tour!
Also...this tour simply solidified my feelings on WHY I chose Jayco as my TT manufacturer...the family friendly atmosphere was obvious...sure they are a LARGE company...but the employees all were super friendly and smiling...that tells you something right there...I know I made the RIGHT CHOICE!!!
Hope the pictures help...let me know if you have any questions...as I played with the rack for more than a few minutes!
Joe.
