What is the "Y" Factor?

Nothing you’ve experienced prepares you for the thrill of hitting the open road astride a Spyder™roadster. Its revolutionary 3-wheeled stance alters the chemistry between vehicle and asphalt. Leaving riders forever changed by what can onlybe described as the Y-FACTOR™

This three-wheel vehicle, with two wheels up front and one in back, offers a completely new ride and stunning look.

No paved road intimidates the Spyder. In challenging road conditions the
Y-architecture creates a confidence-inspiring stance. At the heart of the Spyder, advanced technology enhances dynamic control and stability. The result is a sure-footed approach that lets you focus more on the thrill of the ride.

The Y-architecture helps riders quickly feel comfortable with the vehicle’s handling and makes for a more enjoyable experience for riders and passengers alike

• Powered by the proven 990cc V Twin engine designed and manufactured by BRP-Rotax, the Spyder roadster can be described as part motorcycle and part convertible sports car.

• A true paradigm shift, the Spyder roadster offers a balance of performance and peace of mind with features like the Vehicle Stability System (VSS), engineered in conjunction with Bosch, which includes anti-lock brakes, traction control and stability control systems.

• BRP's reputation was built on its ability to innovate and design products for powersports enthusiasts. After more than five years of research, the Can-Am Spyder roadster is now delivering on the company's promise to offer a complete line of recreational motorized products in four segments: on snow, on water, off-road and now with the Spyder, On-Road.

A Roadster, Not A Motorcycle...

The Spyder feels like the fastest ATV you've ever ridden. Just turn the handlebars in the direction you want to go and let the tires do the rest. The Can-Am Spyder has electrically boosted power steering, so the steering effort is far less than you'd expect.

Like a motorcycle, you twist the handlebar-mounted throttle and go. You operate the brake pedal with your right foot - there is no handbrake (although a few vendors offer an aftermarket handbrake). This single brake pedal works just like the brake in your car. Stopping power with these anti-lock brakes is impressive.

Choice of transmissions. Both are sequential five-speed gearboxes (complete with reverse gear).

• The standard manual transmission (SM5) is shifted in the familiar 1-down, 4-up pattern of a motorcycle, using your left foot and left hand.

• With the optional semi-automatic transmission (SE5) - the paddle shifter shown below, you upshift by pushing the paddle forward with your left thumb, and downshift by pulling the paddle towards you with your left index finger.

There's a surprising amount of cornering grip. The twin front tires are 165/65R14s, and they're controlled by upper and lower wishbones that offer 5.7 inches of travel. The drive tire is a 225/50R15, and the swing-arm and mono-shock also deliver 5.7 inches of travel.

The RYde Says It All

If you're afraid that the Spyder might skate out from underneath you, don't be. There's a car-like safety net of electronics to keep you on the road. It starts with anti-lock brakes and electronic brakeforce distribution. The Spyder also has Bosch stability control that cuts the throttle and applies the brakes to stop a slide, and it's calibrated for an anti-rollover function. There's even traction control.

We tried sliding the Spyder around on the gravel and discovered that you can't. And if you're thinking about defeating the stability control, there is no Off-switch.

The Spyder is fun on a winding road, it has great stability at speed and will reach in excess of 120 mph. It likes you to shift your body weight slightly to help it find the right line in corners.

Because it's a three-wheeler, the Spyder will go around corners faster than you realize, and neither rain-swept pavement nor oily freeway ramps will ever hold the same terror they do when you're riding a two-wheeler. You're in the open air, yet there's a generous amount of room for two-up riding and a lockable trunk to bring your stuff along.

Can-Am Spyder RS
(Roadster Sport)

If you are looking for a Sport Touring vehicle - good performance, sport ergonomic position with light touring capability, then check out the Spyder RS.

The Can-Am Spyder RS roadster means more than escape, it means full-on performance!

PERFORMANCE

• The Spyder RS's proven Rotax engine takes it from zero to 60 MPH in 4.5 seconds, providing a huge fun factor!

STORAGE

TRANSMISSION/REVERSE

• Choice of smooth manual 5-speed gearbox with reverse (SM5) or semi-automatic with reverse (SE5). There's no shifting with your foot with the SE5 transmission. No clutching with your hand. Simply thumb shift up, and use your forefinger to downshift.
