I have a 2012 RSS SE5 that I got used (13k miles). To keep it short, it was a great deal and I love it. But when you show off the F3 or the RT, my resistance fades just that much more. Aside from the cost (same as the car I have) one factor that stops me is that either of them cry out for a garage which I don't have. Nice as it is, the RS seems happy with a heavy cover. But I'll keep watching and maybe in a couple years, I'll splurge for my 70th.
I'm so happy that I can at least see the RT's thru your GO PRO . Called the local dealer yesterday, (and they are a Big one), and still no RT's and they said do not have even a ship date from Can Am. May take a ride to the other coast, as they have received a few.
I'm really liking the look of the new rt spyder and the white is a real beauty. You guys are going to get a lot of attention on it. Thanks the cool walk around.
Another top notch video! Enjoyed the ride! That Amtrak must have been "Haulin' the Bacon", as the old saying goes. Got two suggestions for you..., 1) Mid-summer ride..., Banff Canada. I was there in the mid '70's. Beautiful place. It is about an hour West of Calgary, sorry, don't remember the highway number. And 2) "Cruise" the Canadian Rockies aboard a luxury train for you and Ms. Kelly's train ride. I have not done this one, but it sounds awesome! I have a smattering on an idea about how much effort it takes to produce these videos every day, and I, for one, cannot say "Thank You" enough. Your efforts are greatly appreciated. Thank You!!!
Better to feel like the marshmallow man than an ice cube. You know!!! All this Spyder attention is getting me a little giddy. It is sad a little but that quickly goes away knowing you are now on an RT Ltd. Sweet. Semi nice ride to work. Stay safe and just try to deal with whatever weather is thrown your way. Remember my son, this too shall pass!!!!!!
Oh ya not one but two Spyder rides, and a train...your the man👍 Your brave man to ride in those temps, but thanks, I appreciate the effort put into the vlogs. Just love the look of those new 2020 RT’s, and l agree the dark edition looks great 😊
Just can't get enough of the Spyders..! I share you're love of the dark editions, though I think the lighter colors are better. My champagne looks great in the dark, but the blues and blacks look flat. The flat also takes a little more care to keep it looking good, but worth it in the end. Just ordered a freedom trailer for the long hauls and might see you on a trip to Vancouver (BC) in the fall. A lot depends on my plans for a Florida trip this spring. Oh these Spyders..! Be safe, you two..!
Top man Shawn ace ride to work from my angle here in the UK , train right on cue . Love the F3 another ace video . Like the RT to but out of my price range . John
You can take Amtrak to Mobile soon! They just voted to finance a return to Mobile. It must have warmed up nicely during the day; you had no gloves on. I think just the few chrome accents are almost necessary on a big bike like the RT's in darker colors. Maybe not so much on white or red. Have a great Tuesday! Peace and love.
Thinking about trading my 2017 f3 limited up to RT 2022. I love the matte blacked out one ! I travel to Pittbull in MO and they are going to let me test drive a newer RT to see if I like the seating position. Thanks for your reviews been following you for years
I'm sorry to see the F3 go. I bought the same one and was looking forward to your rides and discussion about it. But unfortunately I think you only rode it once or twice the entire time you had it. I guess that tells how you felt about it. The GSA probably has 10 times the demo miles on it. Oh well...
you guys are too far from Odessa Texas.... I wish I knew that our dealers in the area would take the care to make sure everything is perfect like you do.... for example, the mounting pieces that were molded incorrectly, or some of the bolts you have pointed out in the past, etc. You do such a good job and have integrity. I really want one of the 2020 RT LTD but may have to wait until next year. Wish I knew for certain that who ever assembles my machine will have the same standards as you. Keep up the good work.
Love those Ridgelines! They ride like a solid block of something, LOL. I SOLD Honda cars for about a year before moving to Hyundai. Great video as always, I know I can hit the 👍🏻 even before start watching!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hey Shawn, yup that's my seat! Over a million miles on scooters plus one drunk driver means I have to make accommodations for a wonky hip, plus I ride...let's say aggressive...through the twisties and this style lets me put my body weight up and forward into the turn (and yes, 370 pounds makes decent counter-physics!) We were in yesterday so my lovely bride could trade in her '14 R/T with 65k for a shiny new F3T, just like the one I had that got totaled. I'm sure you'll see her soon for the initial service, since she's got about 30,000 + miles scheduled for the summer.
Awesome..! I thought that might have been your F3 bobber. While editing the video, I noticed the floorboards and was pretty sure that was yours... Heck yeah man!! A shinny new F3T to start off the 2020 season, that’s perfect! 30K? Now that’s some serious Spyder riding. Good on her, wish I could do that..! Thanks Bob!! PS - Sorry I missed you guys at the shop...
love so much this video. like the video is the best. As we develop day by day, Always follow your luck I sincerely hope that your channel will be very big.
A 2020 Asphalt Gray RT LTD .....My dream ride.... I'm saving up the bones...…..Been looking for a 18 or 19 Asphalt Gray RT LTD In the PNW...You have any leads....Thx Marck
You’ll have to buy used or find some small dealer in the middle of nowhere... We, and BRP, sold out of RT’s before the end of summer last year. We dealer traded all the RT’s away from any dealer around us that we could. It will be really tough to find one new I’m afraid. Grab a 2020 ASAP as they start coming in. Much, much better RT than previous years in every way..! Thanks Mark!!
Not sure about the 2020 RT, but the muffler off an F3-T or F3-LTD will perfectly fit the 2014~2019 RT's... Zero power gain, just a very pleasing exhaust note! Thanks!!
@@TheSmoaksVlogs thank you for the quick response. You've got me thinking about trading my current bike in on a Spyder RT Limited. Keep up the great videos! 👍🏻
Cool..! The flashing is caused by frame rate & frequency conflict between the camera and LCD. Does the same thing with LED’s that are not a full power, ie taillight vs brake light... The dimmer taillight is created by pulsing the LED’s at a slower frequency. Digital cameras will pick up the ‘off’ pulses. The LCD display ambient light control is constantly changing the frequency, so you’ll notice times where the camera doesn’t pick up the pulses... Thanks Melody!!
Velocipedium the person that owns it will have 7 days or a Month to get it hauled once it’s been tagged depending on the law. If the motor is blown it probably isn’t worth much. But also to tow something of that size could cost a lot depending how far it needs to go.
What I like is the fact I can hit a deer and not go down and eat pavement. I’m sick of deer trying to kill me multiple times a day when I take a trip 🤦♂️. It happened so many times in recent 3 day trip that the anxiety totally ruined my trip. I’m sick of it. I want to enjoy the open road and wind without worrying about a stupid deer putting me down. They are out of control here in Kentucky and Tennessee
You know you talk about everything . But the spec Engine size horse power How many cylinders I will hook up the spec . I just find it odd you tell us everything But spec
As with most folks, specs mean absolutely nothing to me... If you like the bike, ride and enjoy it. Spec searchers usually end up with the wrong bike in the end..! If specs are important to you, they are always readily available from the manufacturers. This is BRP’s On-Road site: can-am.brp.com/on-road/ Thanks for watching and commenting!

Riding on a Amtrak is wonderful a real blast lot's of walking room the food is great
I'm so happy that I can at least see the RT's thru your GO PRO . Called the local dealer yesterday, (and they are a Big one), and still no RT's and they said do not have even a ship date from Can Am. May take a ride to the other coast, as they have received a few.
Have a great day Kelly and Shawn. Another great Vlog
Shawn and Kelly glad the weather was in your favor returning the Spyder great ride to work and test ride. Be Cool and Ride Safe🇺🇸🏍🐶

The black edition is good looking. I’m patiently waiting for our local dealer to call and tell me his RT’s are in.

Thanks for the ride into work on the old demo, that’s not to many miles for a demo!👍

Nice dry ride in to work in February nice
Sunris at 8.00 - sunset at 17.17 in denmark
What is the time of sunrise and sunset in December?
That's a nice roadster. Very perrty. I saw a red one yesterday.

That Amtrak was rolling! Gonna miss the F3, good stuff Smoak!
I love when you ride on a highway with that bike. It Legendary 👊😁

What's up with the dash display jumping around, blinking a lot.
Digital camera frame rate and frequency of bike’s LED display... Very common with digital recordings..!
Hi Mr, Smoaks, have you had any info on what they will be doing on the GS/GSAs for this next coming year? 2021 maybe..Thanks Paul
No traffic jams on trains!
That's a Badass lookn Machine that F3 Limited ... Although I am Biased seein I own an F3!! 👍😁🤘🇦🇺 Beanie
Just Curious on these three wheel machines, how do you avoid road kill in your lane if the other lane has traffic???
Smoak, you recorded the petrol metallic dark edition 😎😎
love so much this video. like the video is the best.

I believe there is a 2019 Ashalt Gray RT LTD in Boerne, TX at Coyote Powersports.
น่าจะทำเป็น หัวเก๋ง ไปเลยมีแอร์รถยนต์ด้วย
Can you put an F3 muffler on a RT? Would it give more power, or just louder?
I really enjoy your videos! 👍🏻
Not sure about the 2020 RT, but the muffler off an F3-T or F3-LTD will perfectly fit the 2014~2019 RT's... Zero power gain, just a very pleasing exhaust note!

@@TheSmoaksVlogs thank you for the quick response. You've got me thinking about trading my current bike in on a Spyder RT Limited. Keep up the great videos! 👍🏻
I have the same exact color F3 Limited. Why is your dash flickering?

Hi Shawn and Kelly that is very nice spyder the dark Edition I love. Just want to say hi from the other Toledo, Ohio Joe H.
Thanks Joe!!
@@TheSmoaksVlogs THANK'S SHAWN
So what’s the deal with an abandoned RV? Can someone just take it? That just wouldn’t happen here in UK.
Velocipedium the person that owns it will have 7 days or a Month to get it hauled once it’s been tagged depending on the law. If the motor is blown it probably isn’t worth much. But also to tow something of that size could cost a lot depending how far it needs to go.
Who is this Bruce you keep mentioning....?
I super nice guy and cool customer from the Yakima area of Washington... He’s been seen in a few vlogs over the years.
Thanks Jim!!
