OK... I have what I think is a 32 foot 1990 Barth Regency diesel. However, I see some owners indicate they have a 34 foot 1990 Barth Regency diesel. Are there two different size Regency coaches for 1990? I am thinking that some owners are including their bumpers in the overall length. Would that be the correct way to measure?

What does your data tag say?
Mine says 9005-0140-34RDS-C3 which tells me it is a 34'. In fact it is 35'1" long bumper to bumper calculated by dropping a chalk mark vertically to the driveway pavement.

This bugs me as well. My Barth says it is 33 feet long and I measured it atb35 plus feet bumper to bumper.

correct measurement for Barth is the length of the body only

I am glad someone posted this as I wondered the same thing.

Want to add to the confusion about length? Ooops If your Barth has a bustle, it is not included in the length of the coach! hmm The bustle was a $500 storage option, so a 26 foot coach with a bustle is longer than a 26 foot coach without a bustle. confusion

Whenever they measured the Royales, they must have been drunk....If I measured the 35ft Royale the correct way, then it would be maybe 33ft in length...Ha! Ha!

With a Barth, almost anything goes....
