Royal Island Transit Authority 98-7400 – 98-7419 are Orion VI (06.501) buses built and delivered in 1998. They were the RITA's first lowfloor buses, and the first buses delivered with bikeracks. Originally, there was to be an additional order placed for 50 more Orion VIs in 1999, but the buses faced various issues. The RITA was displeased, and opted to purchase D40LF buses from New Flyer Industries instead. Exactly half the fleet had been retired by 2005, with the remaining buses scheduled to go by 2013, making this the RITA's shortest lived bus fleet.

They are based out of Logan Garage.
