2008 BRP Can-Am Spyder

Now, this is not your run-of-the-mill Trike. The brand new BRP Can-Am Spyder is claimed to be the next dimension in open road riding that will enrich the rider a new roadster experience. The form factor is captivating with the two wheels on the front and one on the backside. The sexy looking Y-shaped beast is power-driven by a 106hp Rotax 990cc V-Twin Engine. Its multifunction gauge cluster helps you view an array of vital details on the move. Other than that, it comes rocking a five-speed manual gearbox and four electronic control units. Spyder puts performance and solidity in just right harmony. You can make it yours for $14,999.

Yet another must have cool toy from the lovely Canadian company Bombardier, the creators of the Ski-doo and the Sea-doo!

This is exactly what I needed to get back riding after losing an arm in a bike crash a couple of years ago. Didn't want some Harley trike. This is just the ticket- twice the technology at 1/2 the price.

I think that this radical design is going to change the way we look at 3 wheeled machines forever. It is way to cool to not want on. It is on my Christmas wish list

I'm 59 and have been riding since 1964. I rode the spyder in Laconia NH in June. I thought it was ok but still like the 2 wheeler. I currently own an '06 GL1800 Goldwing. My daughter, who is 33, is putting down the $1,000 deposit before 9/15. She used to ride a 2 wheeler but dropped it several times. She loved the Spyder. Nice thing about it, I'll get to use it to!!!
