I am not surprised at there being some ignorant comments about this. For those that slam owning a Can Am and call them a “pos” and “lawnmowers” never experienced a physical disability after riding for over 25 years. Thanks for mentioning it and riders with disabilities still getting out there. Everyone needs to remember: it’s not about the wheels under you but the handlebars in front of you. Ride safe all. And some, be more tolerant and open to things and people that are different from you.
And there are some of us that just love them! Moped/Trike/Bike/OpenAir/SportBike/Cruiser - all get respect and a wave from me! And, if its NOT a motorcycle or a bike, why 99.9% of the compliments said nice Bike/Motorcycle?
I can see disability being the only reason to own this snowmobile on wheels. Who else do they appeal to though? Besides disabled or people who just like the look
I agree if your disabled but otherwise they are plain gay
cg 247 I believe you can get super aids by riding one of these 😂
The Gimpy Garage you are so right. What's wrong with some people? Where's their sense of fun? This looks like fun. My motorcyclist father is now disabled. He can no longer ride motorcycles. He now lives for his 8 mph electric buggy. He loves it. Life is short. Would have loved to take him out on one of these 3 wheelers but sadly he wouldn't be able to get on the back. I know some people have no experience and little empathy with people with injuries or disabilities but these vehicles could allow someone to continue riding once a motorcycle gets too unmanageable for them. I like them because they are different.
I just recently bought a Can Am and I have honestly not came across a single rider that has not waved back at me so far.
Harley guys never wave unless you have a harley
@@dylancarter8774 I wave at any bike and I ride a Harley 🤷
What’s the top speed ?
Same here.
@@dylancarter8774 I get waves all the time, it really doesn't bother me Im trying to enjoy myself not looking for waves lol.
I’m recovering from a stroke and I think my motorcycle days are over, so to still have that wind on my face feeling, totally appealed to me 😀
Are u ok now mate?
@@CaptainJleeb getting there mate.
@@sierrabravoexteriorcleanin6225 how are you feeling these days?
I may have responded to this video before, but watching today and just wanted to say thanks! I bought my Can Am approximately 3rd week of April. It's near the end of June & I've done over 2000 miles on it. Love it! Still have wind in my hair, warmth of the sun on me. Whether people people think it is a bike, trike (tryke) or not, it is my bike and I'm not sorry at all I went this direction! & I've had 2- 2 wheel bikes prior to it. I've had my (2 wheel) motorcycle license for about 6 years. Anyway, thanks for the positive press on these. I've found so far that the people that actually have them, really love them. I know I do! & Even greater thanks for speaking about Him out loud! :)
are you still enjoying the 3 wheels?
@@VinCode17 Absolutely but just 3 times this year so far. & I am surgery-bound soon so will miss most of the summer riding. (Sad). Have had 2, and '11 RS Se 5 and since JUL 31 '20, and F3t. NOt usre why I said June up top.
@@see-hear-prophesyendtimes3245 nice, well good luck with your surgery and wish a speedy recovery so you can get out and ride safe. Keep in touch.
I'm 45 years old, I have been on a Harley, Honda, and Spyder. The Spyder is the way to go. Safe, and very very comfortable.
Anything's better than a piece of shit Harley though lol
@@gwood701 harley are quality bikes. Just expensive.
A Chinese scooter is more reliable than a Harley
what are you riding these days?
I just sold mine last month. It is like a snowmobile for the street. They are very fast but, the enjoyment you get is different than from a motorcycle.
Well of course it's not a motorcycle
These are great confidence inspiring machines! Owned one and loved it. Bought if for the safety features and comfort. Only one negative, they are hard to transport due to their size. People who disrespect the Spyder have never ridden one!
Wife and I owned a couple of these years ago. Fun rides. Not a motorcycle replacement, no more than a 4-wheeler is a replacement for a dirt bike. But it's a different ride altogether. Doesn't matter that it doesn't lean into turns, and requires "less skill". There is a place, time, and person these are for. I switched back to 2 wheels personally, but my wife is considering getting another spyder. Even though she can ride motorcycles no problem, I think she just feels a bit safer on 3 wheels. More power to her! If it gets her out riding, that's more than I can ask for! :)
Australia also has great babe's and beer but they keep the best of it there for themselves lol.
I love how you combine bikes and scripture!
OK can't believe I'm saying this because I love the VMAX so much, but that CAN AM is just awsome you might have just sold the idea of getting one of thoughs instead of the VMAX in getting mr back to riding again. That machine is really fantastic. Thanks for the test drive info very good video you sold me Can Am it is, now got to figure out how to pay for one, well better start saving. My wife is going to be extremely angry with my decision, I'm blaming it on you lol
If I was selling a reverse trike, one of the benefits I'd mention comparing it to a conventional trike is being able to see the widest part of the bike. It makes it easier and safer to navigate around obstacles. You might also mention the effect of weight transfer during breaking, and how a reverse trike becomes more stable under heavy braking whereas a conventional trike becomes less stable. In a panic stop / accident avoidance scenario, you enjoy a distinct advantage on a reverse trike compared to a conventional trike.
Peter Excellently said! 👍🏻😎👍🏻
The Gimpy Garage Thank you.
Great vid Shaun, thanks for sharing. Love these Can Ams. I have been ridding bikes all my life. My 1st experience was on a old Cushman Scooter when I was little kid in the 60’s. What a blast, I was hooked. My brother invented the 1st 3 wheeler way before Honda came out with the ATC’s. He welded a old rototiller to the front frame of an old bike and there you have it. The slowest 3 wheeler around. LOL, but it was cool. I had a major stroke a few years back that robbed me of my balance. Thank God I survived. God was really watching after me. Thank you Lord.🙏🏻 There we’re some/many in my rehab classes that didn’t fair so well. Many of them were as much as 30+ years younger than I and they didn’t recover as well as I did. The one thing that it took from me was my balance, I thought my motorcycle days were over,🥲. Then I Discovered the Cam Am Spyder and Ryker at one of my stops. I’m what is called an essential worker like a Fex X or UPS driver. However my company is much smaller, we are what you would call a big little company. We’re in 7 states in the Midwest. Wow Spyder’s are my Solution to getting the wind back in my hair! Looking for a nice used one now. I want a newer one with the 1330 triple. My last bike (pre-stroke) was a Valkyrie. I loved that bike. It was a real monster!! Lots of custom stuff on it, an Arlen Ness tail stagger rear fender Led lights but not over done. Didn’t look like a Christmas tree like some do. Corbin Saddles front and rear. It was a real honey. Then Obama ruined our economy and I Lost many of my customers. I sold high end luxury cars for 15 years. Until the Dummycrats took over and ruined our economy with all their crazy taxes and regulations!!! 🤮🤮🤮 rant over, sorry I can get carried away sometimes. 😉
Thank you! I needed to hear that verse today. Keep up the good work. :)
how I live my life.
I owned one for three years and loved it! but it was very expensive to service/repair! but on twisty roads few things can keep up! I live in Scotland so we have some real twisties here! ride safe!
On the Australia front: bro, if you think nothing good comes from there, you've gotta check out their hot rod scene. Them boys out there got some WILD builds
Thanks Shawn.
As a 58 year old female who always wanted a motorcycle but couldn't afford one due to single parenting. I think one of these with all my aches and pains is PERFECT!! I would have a BLAST one one of these and I wouldn't give a tinkers damn what anyone's thoughts or opinions are. Fun , freedom and the feeling is PERFECTION!
These can ams...are just getting more n more popular..😊
It's definitely NOT a motorcycle but who cares? If someone enjoys it, more power to them. If I was rich, I'd have one in addition to my motorcycles for sure.
Actually... it IS a motorCYCLE... however, it ain't a motorBIke.
Cycles are 2 wheels (bicycle), 3 wheels (tricycle) and even 4 wheels (quadricycle).
So, the Spyder, Ryker and R3 ARE MOTOR_CYCLES... but they are "trikes", not "bikes". And more correctly they are reverse-trike motorcycles.
Is not that complicated...
I have always liked the look. At 62, my Goldwing is getting heavy, so I have scheduled a Spyder riding class for May and will be buying one if I like my riding experience. I really don't care what the nay-sayers think.
he man did you get yourself a spyder?
The only thing that bugged me about mine is the lack of a brake lever on the right handlebar. Even if it was offered as an option would be nice.
And throttle at the foot.
They did not offer hand brake in part because of the ABS system. People were used to ABS system activation (buzzing pedal) on the foot braking. But they found in initial testing of prototypes, ..... even test drivers, when the hand brake buzzed, it startles people and they reduced brake pressure or removed their hand all together. Panic stop distances were much longer than with foot brake alone.
If this is a good option for people with disabilities, I am all for it. For me personally I would rather go for a two-seat convertible car. With the car you trade some of the open road feel for more safety, comfort, performance, and utility. But if riding the Can Am makes you happy, God bless you!
I own a 2012 RS model and I like the look of the Harley Trike better but the ride of the can am is exceptionally smooth comparatively. They are not slow for having 3 wheels on the ground. I can easily ride 100 plus mph and it is still smooth. I don't need to go faster than that nor do I want to.
you still riding that spyder?
I had a major stroke 4 years ago. Recovered better than most but my balance never came back to 100%! I have ridden bikes/motorcycles my whole life. But even ridding a bike can be difficult now due to the balance issue. I drive for a living about 250 miles a day and receive safety awards every year! I think. The Can Am would be perfect for me! They are a bit pricey though for a bike (3wheeler) that I would only ride 3 to 4 months out of the year. I live in the Midwest but have never been a fan of the cold. Been ridding motorcycles for over 35 years on the street but after the tempura drops below 50 by bikes were always put up for the winter! Just dreaming rite now, but hummm!
Man I love how you get the Word in on all your reviews! Acknowledge Him in all your ways!!
I owned the same one. 2012 RSS in Green. Loved it.
In California it's not registered as a motorcycle. You do not need to have a motorcycle license to drive one on the road.
It's a snowmobile.
Here in New Zealand you can also ride/drive it on a car licence... we don't have snowmobiles soooo... not sure what it is classed as.. probably a motorcycle ....
That’s funny.
It's a snowmobile made for the road I have an 2011 RSS
LoudValves It's registered as a motorcycle, Australia/New Zealand, because it is one, I have a 2011 RRS, it's a blank sheet design, not a snowmobile!!
Jonathan Norris you are rong on the registration its register as a motorcycle but no mc licenses need
Been on two wheels for a couple years but I’ve always found these interesting and would love to test one. I’d definitely go for one of these over a touring bike. Personally I hate riding with a passenger but this I could like.
did you ever get one of these?
first video about these things I've seen. I dunno...the joy of motorcycling (for me) is the two-wheel lean and the traditional manual motorcycle experience...clutch feathering, light trails, curb hopping, occasional wheelie...can't see this providing the same joy. That being said...I am old, and just because these are different from motorcycles doesn't mean they can't be fun for other people. Two wheels down.
Such a stable, gorgeous, beautiful bike !!!!!
That verse in the beginning hit home man. Keep on doing what you do! God Bless.
Same here. That got my attention and so I kept on watching. God is mighty good
God's not real
2:42, three wheeling a spyder is easy. Just drive it.
“...the problem is not the problem. The problem is your attitude about the problem”
Capt. J Sparrow
I think this would be a great secondary vehicle to take with you on an extended RV trip. No need to tow a car. Put one of these on a lift, park the motorhome and have the freedom of another way to get around.
that's a great idea.
Great video. How is it, that dirt bikes riders, atv riders, side by side riders etc all appreciate each other's rides while out on the trails with no smack talk - yet hit the pavement and the clique is strong? How about do what you want, ride what you like and just cruise?
I ride on a 2004 Piaggio mp3 400 ie and love the darn thing, but I would deffinitely upgrade to a spyder and loved riding that as well.
“I tried to 3 wheel the thing” bro the whole vehicle is a three wheeler
I think it will be an option for me when I can no longer hold one up. I'd be afraid (at my age) to shift from one type of driving style to another.
Crocodile Dundee put Australia on the map.
It's like riding a fast quad on the road with street tires
the apprentice 1996 probably better because it has a wider track width and longer wheelbase
I am disabled and had to sell my Harley. So this is great for disabled people!!!
They do tip over very easily. If the ground is a tad uneven and you are turning or reversing.
What’s up guys, sounded just like “Hey guys, CHRIS FIX HERE !”
That verse on contentment is exactly the opposite of why I’m here! 😮
I do miss this old Honda three wheelers They were fun
2:22 Some people think 3 wheelers tip over?! 😳
THREE WHEELS.. 3... REALLY?!?! ......REEEAAAALLLLYYY?!?? ....WOOOOOW! 🤦🏻♀️
So I literally just bought a 2008 canam Spyder. I've been wanting one for a while. The reason I don't own a 2 wheel motorcycle is because I have a metal plate in my leg and can't hold up a motorcycle, especially if my wife wants to ride 2 up. The Spyder is much better for me. And like Sean said in the video, the registration says motorcycle on it.
Dude- they are a blast. Let the haters hate.. I have a 2012 manual though. Far from slow.. And a fun comfortable ride. I am 6'2 and 32 yrs old.. They all aren't old men bikes lol
Def want to build this trike with 80kw, it’d be so nice with LED lighting and custom fiberglass plastics with subwoofers
I love ❤️ that scripture are you a preacher I hear the love 💕 of god in you
A few years ago I had such a deep inner-ear problem that riding a bike would have been dangerous. Once while pumping gas into my truck I looked up at the awning above the pumps for some reason. Once I brought my head down to normal the world tipped 45 degrees and I fell to the ground. Girls working the gas desk ran outside to me. There are conditions , even temporary that would not mix with riding. Balance controlled by your inner ear.
Taipei & Mong Kok! Can-Am! Camera!
Nice bike👍
I have a 2012 Orange RS-S version and I love it
I’m surprised he didn’t mention the Can-am spyders with a manual transmission or at least do an update video about it
I really like the verse and it was great you went back for it. Amen man.
You can take turns pretty good but riding 2up it can feel like it will tip and I’m riding on the back with my mother in control of it and she has been riding sport bikes for 26 years
I came out of Australia and im very good.
You forgot that Crocodile Dundee also came out of Australia.
Great vid ! Are you using a go pro for this video ?? How is the audio so crisp ?
Pretty much everyone I see on these is someone who probably used to ride a motorcycle but is too old/arthritic to ride a motorcycle anymore. Not a bad option to keep something motorcycle-like if you aren't able to ride a motorcycle anymore.
You're never too old to ride. What if I rig a bike with a sidecar? That kind of riding takes a special skill.
i have the 08 gs model and thought the same as a lot of people .. that is intresting but i would never own one .. then i took one for a ride ..should have bought one yrs ago .. iv ridden bikes all my life and now 70yrs old and stuffed legs and this lets me ride still .. only probs find with mine and others are the electronics , they do play up , also takes a little while to learn how to ride them properly .. by the way im australian and a lot of good things come out of oz .. we have the best snakes / spiders / sharks in the world not to mention our drop bears

I am new to your channel, and the cycle world. I love that you include a scripture with each video! I do not feel comfortable riding a 2 wheel motorcycle and never want to. But would consider a three wheeled cycle. My friend and his dealership has offered me to buy a 2012 can am spyder rss rotax990 with only 2k miles on it. Price $6,500. The total with taxes and fees would be around $7,775. Is that a good deal?
Winter time 🥶🥶🥶🥶
So im not getting how you switch the gears someone help?
Button on handlebars left side
I think this may be the first dropped verse I have seen... lol!
I’d like to try one. I have a tadpole trike bike version I like and I’ve ridden a 4 wheel ATV in Costa Rica which to me seems similar
you got a video on how to use the tank straps on a can am spyder? don't wanna tie down in wrong location.
I owned the exact same model except for the push button shift. It was slow, I couldn't outrun a Honda 4 door pickup. I was not comfortable in aggressive cornering. I felt like it wanted to toss me off the bike instead of leaning with it. The only thing I liked about it was the neon green color. It would be fine for someone who is physically challenged ..... I sold it a year later. Your experience may differ.
planefloat The F3 models with the newer 1330 Rotax engine are pretty fast.
The Gimpy Garage Thanks, a close friend has the 3 cylinder touring model. The low speed stability has allowed him to keep riding at 84 years old. He's happy just to be riding, cornering and acceleration is not his concern.
Very tired of daredevil bikers roaring around, weaving in and out of traffic just to prove how fast they can go. Spent years working in Emergency Rooms and saw lots of horribly banged up bikers and some dead ones as well. Never a pretty sight. Maybe people who are riding the slower and more stable Spyders are smarter than you.
You couldn't beat a Honda ridgeline? Do you know where the throttle is?
Gavin DuBois Maybe, but I owned a Suzuki dealership, and I've personally owned GSXR 750- 1100's, V-Maxes, helped sponsor a world class endurance racing team, Team Hammer. I've drag raced a GS1150 for fun....but I'm always willing to learn. Gavin, please try a Spyder out and let me know what you think.
Great video when i turn corners i lean to the inside of the turn if that helps
I owned a 2008 SE. I ride 117,000kms without majors problèmes. Now, I owne à RT ltd with 77,000kms without any problem.
Looks like a snowmobile with wheels
God bless you man
I love those motocycles.
Would you get a basket installed in the front?
It's a car or motorcycle in the UK I think. Holiday hire bike on the Mediterranean
Love it would like to get one.
Ty looking to get 1 for myself and wife. Good info and video
Is this going to be for sale? I love your videos and might be interested in more info if it will be for sale. I think they would be a lot of fun in the winter or for a different option for touring.
are you riding a spyder yet?
To me, the experience feels no different than riding a 4 wheeled ATV. 4 wheeled ATVs are cheaper too. Motorcycling is all about leaning. If you're not leaning, you're not motorcycling.
Mr. Solitude I don’t know I see a lot of bikes and the way the tires are worn there’s a lot guys out there who are not leaning at all
You see a lot more bikes than I do, my main man Sean, so I'm happy to take your word for it. As for me, I love them chicken strips. :)
Mr. Solitude you can’t ride ATVS on the road legally
Roger that. So if you want to have the experience of riding an ATV on a street, acquiring a Can Am would be the ticket.
good versicle, money, we all love money but its the Lord who keeps us going everyday
NO COUNTERSTEER....BUT LOTS OF FUN...
I'm 47 and my knees are toast (bone on bone, no cartilage) from so many years of 3 sports and also 80s constant three wheeler and quad riding and jumps, def had a few trikes roll on me as a kid, lol. I'm thinking a can-am spyder would be perfect for me with the extra stability and no need to put feet down at intersections and stops. does that make sense? are they good for passenger like wife or daughter with sissy bar/backrest for scared women passengers, haha?
I ride several different bikes. I always wave. Harley riders are the worst about not waving to anything but other harleys. I actually continue to wave regardless, but I ride my harley alot less. Thought about selling two of my current bikes for another harley. I've decided to get a vtx1800 instead.
It’s a snowmobile on wheels for the streets. It’s not a bike. Bi means 2. Not the same experience. Not even close.
Well I love my snowmobiles even more than my motorcycle. Something about 150 plus HP offroad in the woods just feels so fast. But this on the road I don't know it my a blast.
Amen
Also
Exodus 20:8-11
Which place is that bro... Its beautiful.....
Love it would like to have it.
The thing that bugs me about these is that they would be good for an amputee but they only have a foot brake? Seriously, what the help was can-am thinking?
Terry Melvin I'm saying it world be good for amputees of they had hand controls. I thought that was clear in the first post.
Terry Melvin it makes sense. I have a buddy who lost a leg in Afghanistan, I'd love to get something like this to get him back out of the house.
Terry Melvin thanks, I'll check that out. Sounds awesome.
I just wanna drive this not 2wheeler
Y’all think I be good or should I learn 2wheeler
What about reliability? I've heard some bad things...
Just wanted to say how much I like ur vids, i cant get on board with the can am machines it seems like a snowmobile with wheels... Sure there fun to go buzz around for bit but na.... Im 45 got my first DB at 9 (1980 yamaha mx 80! Woohoo lol) always had fast DBs and atvs my whole life got my first harley at 16 sold my last harley a hopped up 1980 fxlr 10 years as so ago, still have a cb650c of my dads its on way to be a hardtail bobber after 20 years of storage since he passed in 98, but i think i may have grown out of being a harley snob an thinking maby Street fighter style bike, never tried a super sports but they seem prob to uncomfortable at my age to ride for any amount of time to me and i like having a licence, i want something fast comfortable reliable and FUN that doesnt turn my hands numb... Harley cruisers are just fatiguing to ride any distance im my opinion plus theres so many compromises to go fast like comfort and expense, At the moment im thinking any year FZ-09... They are priced right and look like a blast to ride but good enough ridablity and manors for crusing. I was thinking maby a buell kb12 streetfighter, there the best compromise for harley rider and nice examples are dirt cheap up here in maine like $3000 to $4000 but im around 6' 1" and they seem so tiny...never sat on 1 but seem so small. Anywho keep up great vids! Ride safe...
Have you seen Ausi women ? And the wheels hit every pot hole , road kill, ect. if the two in the front don't hit it, the one in the center will, only option is to change lanes. wide as a car and drives like a snowmobile
hey at tge end of the day what ever makes you happy ride on
Big red roll over survivor here 😎
I am 6 foot 4 inches tall and about 400 pounds, too big for most bikes, and larger Can Am's out there?
Can I just let the bike handle all my down shifting or is that meant for a precaution?
I own 2011 spyder, and a kawi 650. 650 is way more comfortable, and easier to ride.
is this stock exhaust ? i own 2011 spyder it has a two brothers exhaust it is very loud. i am going to replace with the stock one.
