You can Ride it Any Age... I will still be riding mine at 103

[@Skyhawker6177]

Just turned 86 and I'm still riding mine. 2016 RT-S. Bought it brand new March 2017. It's my everyday ride. Some problems but it's still a good ride. Installed Power Commander which was a great upgrade to put the fun back into riding it. Plan to keep riding until I can't find my way back home so 103 is not unrealistic. 😊

[@jeannettebrough3755]

@Skyhawker6177 I love it... I have a little song I sing... I'm going to live til 103 coz I'm no fool ...(I think that's Jiminy crickets song heard it as a child ...didnt have tv...didnt know who jimminy cricket was but the wee jingle stuck like a mantra ) So GO YOU...I'm on your team... I've just turned 60(with biological age of 43) bought myself a fabulous Can Am Spyder Roadster RT for my bthday...its called investing in oneself... And yes 103 here a I come to0o 😁😃 Stay Young Stay Happy... Keep Living Your Dream ... Bless 🙏🌟

I plan on getting the 2024 model this year. This is the first time I heard a reviewer describe it as a replacement or extra car. That’s exactly why I’m buying it and I intend to drive it all year long.

I have a Red 2021 RT Limited. Bought it new for $28K, Great ride, and I don't see enough upgrades for me to get a 2024. I bought a mount and a Garmin GPS and I can run any Android app through it with a nice widescreen for trips.

Perfect application for a DCT similar to a Goldwing. After more than 50 years riding, I’m getting ready for a more stable platform. Getting older and a 900# bike becomes challenging.

The can am spyder was made in 2007 built in Quebec Canada for the past 17 years.

[@glennmiddleton5634]

I'm close to retirement, & this would extend the years I can ride. I've been riding over 50 years & would love to fit another 10 to 15. The Spider also has trailer towing capability. Saw a couple last year towing a camper.

[@PeterLoweOne]

True. I'm going off the top of my head, but I think it's rated to tow 400 lbs. Some people might be pushing that limit with campers, but I've seen that too.

Will be my next purchase 🎉

[@mixc8]

Been thinking about Can Am's for years. I am a vet and Father Time has caught to my knees. Currently ride a Honda VTX 1800, thinking about upgrading to the GW because of the DTC/reverse features. But I am thinking about this as well, with this you get a much more stable ride and don't have to struggle with the weight of a 800 lb plus bike. I will alway keep a 2 wheeler but this for every day riding around is appealing.

What drivers license is required for this machine?

[@AFPF7982]

Hi Pete, Wayne here. I have a 2014 Spyder RT L. I really love. it but it does have a problem with Apple CarPlay as mine does not work as it should. Someome needs to come up with directions as to what to push when the spyder is moving as the touch screen is disabled so nobody can tell me what to push to answer or make a phone call. Also when I make a call ( NOT MOVING ) the audio sounds like I playing a 45 RPM record at 33 RPM can you help Can Am ( BRP ) does not have an answer ???????

please tell me. what is that huge luggage case in top right corner of the video at 14:25 ? is is a replacement for standart top box of the spyder?

[@PeterLoweOne]

That is part of the LINQ system, (the accessory lineup that is compatible across BRP products) but that one is placed on a ATV in the showroom. I don't know for sure if it would fit the Spyder, but it might! You could screenshot the video clip and ask your local dealer. I'm not sure if it's fully cross compatible with the Spyder. The system of attachment would be the same, but the spacing of attachment points may not line up with the Spyder's points.

There is a USB for it.... I'm going by memory now, but I think it was in a glove compartment over the gauges on the F3. I don't remember if it's in a similar spot on the RT. I just remember it being accessible. That's the problem with me being around so many motorcycles each day. Details like that blend together in my brain.

I wished it had a handle bar brake on it 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@alp3781]

@@PeterLoweOne Yes. Its available and expensive too.

[@Lwimmermastermetalart]

I have a 2021 Limited and for the most part I love it. Being a Harley guy I really hate the exhaust sound though. Even after replacing the whole system the sound just sucks. Next there is the God awful clunking when you put in gear . Seriously? And the last issue is the very annoying LOADING of the sound system. Again seriously? In what vehicle does the radio not go on the minuet you start it. Sometimes it takes longer than others but still always too long. That I simply don’t understand. I would have thought they’d have had Car Play back then. Nice to see they finally caught up with the rest of the world though. I like the new handlebar control configurations as well. I’ve customized mine so much I’d hate to start over with a brand new one. I’m adding an aftermarket Car Play unit. I’d have to recommend these to anyone thinking about 3 wheels. Sadly I had to due to various health issues. I used to snowmobile many years ago and this simply reminds me so much of doing that. The big plus over a Harley type trike is you can actually lean into turns somewhat due to the suspension. ( you may want to touch on that point) Otherwise thx for a great video 🤙🏻

[@davidedwards5773]

Nice video. How about doing a side by side comparison between the RTL and the Sea to Sky models touching on the differences including available colours. When doing sit ons you should mention your height and inseam measurements to help with the visual for those of us who may be height deprived. Thanks.

[@PeterLoweOne]

I usually do try to mention my height, especially on motorcycles. I'm about 6 feet tall. Can't remember my exact inseam, but I don't know that it matters as much on this vehicle. I'll definitely try to do comparisons in the near future.

[@Skyhawker6177]

2016RT-S here. A great ride.

[@TURAN903]

I have the 2021 model of this motorcycle. The only difference is that it is light green in color. When it comes to driving, it doesn't feel like a motorcycle or a car. It has a different driving dynamics. The plus side is that it is flashy and big. The minus side is maneuverability. I am constantly nervous, especially when entering corners. That’s why I’m thinking of returning to two wheels.

[@PeterLoweOne]

Another difference is the dash on this one. There are probably a few other minor differences as well. I think for me, I really like the two wheeled options for being nimble and tiny on the road, but for a touring bike, I'd take this in a heartbeat, I LOVE these!

[@clarencemckimmy9437]

When are they going to get Apple CarPlay straightened out?

[@PeterLoweOne]

I'm pretty sure it should work now. Am I wrong? I thought it had been completed.

[@clarencemckimmy9437]

Nope, here is my response today. I understand your concern about the Apple Car Play for your unit. The feature was initially planned for the new 10.25 display screens but had to be removed due to bugs. Although it was released on April 3rd, it had some compatibility issues and was removed again. Rest assured, BRP is actively collaborating with Apple to address this issue. However, as of now, there is no specific timeline for when the fix will be available. I appreciate your patience as we work on resolving this matter.

[@TravHD]

They need to add Android auto. Honda has had apple car play and Android auto since 2019 on the Goldwing. One of the reasons I'm holding off getting one.

Soooo… as an amputee (left lower leg), I don’t have to make any modifications?

You don't need your left leg to do anything on this bike, so I would think this should work perfectly for you. The brake is on the right side, just like a car, so you should be good to go.

[@benmoore1097]

Ok. The big question I keep getting different answers for. Do you have to have a Motorcycle license for it? Or just regular driver license? Thank you. And thank you for these videos! First time I saw the Spyder, I was very interested

[@PeterLoweOne]

It will depend on where you live. In general (don't take this as gospel truth) a motorcycle license will almost always let you ride it. Many regions have a license that allows you to drive 3 wheeled vehicles like this, and some regions allow you to drive this with a car license. In short, it's really not that difficult to get a license that is valid for these. Can Am dealers in every region are well trained in helping their shoppers become licensed to drive these, and I wouldn't let it stress you if you don't currently hold the correct license to drive this.

[@benmoore1097]

@@PeterLoweOne ok. Kinda what I thought. It is a grey area. Trikes, in general are "confusing". They want you to take the class, but no one wants to teach trike. Either way, I guess I'll hit up my local dealer. Thank you very much for the response!

If you already have a MC endorsement, then this is a no brainer. If you don't have one, go to class and get one! Chances are if you ride in multiple states you will need one. Simple as that.

One thing drives me crazy on these, why not having front brake lever? Get this machine adopted to all types of riders and very tall one too. I went to look at one and was very disappointed. Not comfortable dealing with brakes when you do city rides. You can get it aftermarket, but why? What a pain and a pooper. I left the dealer. Didn't want even to ride one.

How does it do with high speed humps-bumps?

The Spyder is decently plush. It actually has a good amount of suspension travel, but I'll have to seek something like that out when I do a riding review in the coming months.

[@dxhamshack7905]

@@PeterLoweOne Reason I am asking is that I have been traveling a lot to a city in Mexico a lot the last 5 years, and now, my work is moving me there. I already got a place there, nice with lots of security, including traffic security, which means they are trying to slow speed down with a lot of humps, sometimes bumps, and they are, well, lets just say, not a smooth little hump that is hardly noticable. They are quite steep, and high. I want to be somewhat sure it can make them. I guess I could test ride, but the dealerships, yes there are several, are usually not very keen on letting people test drive. Honestly, dont know how they sell anything without letting people test drive. Heard the Rally version is somewhat taller than the standard, and the sport.

[@PeterLoweOne]

@@dxhamshack7905 So the Rally and Sport models aren't what you see in this particular video. This video features the Spyder, and you're talking about the Ryker. That model does have less ground clearance, and less suspension travel, but it also has a shorter wheelbase. I would guess that you want to lean towards the Ryker Rally over the Ryker Sport for the extra ground clearance, and I would also assume that a good dealer would be willing to do a deal on the condition that you don't bottom out on the way to your home. They very likely have a demo vehicle which could be tested out on those roads to secure the deal.

[@dxhamshack7905]

@@PeterLoweOne Yes your right, I been looking both at the Ryker and the Spyder. I guess I will have to have to try to test drive, also the place I live the drive way is quite steep so could be an issue with low clearance as well. Thank you for a good channel.

Id have one but my dealer is not well focused on them. They only have 2 in stock and they are last years models so it's obvious they can't get this years model until those are sold. The sales people couldn't answer questions that I already knew the answers to (testing their knowledge). Their focus is on dirt bikes and side by sides. They are the only dealer for 1,000 miles which makes it not an option for me. Too bad too because I find it to be a better handling machine than a Harley tri glide. Be sure to watch videos on problems with both Spyder and Tri Glide before buying any of them

[@keithchrysler3732]

Same thing here! They don't even allow test rides AND they didn't even know that it has electronic power steering! The sales staff sucks when I came in knowing more about 😂spyder than they do! Ride Now needs to get on board in Tucson or get out of the business!

[@RobertMacCready]

Test drove a new one 3 years ago and in 2023 last year. Last year's test was like 3 years ago. The Can-Am big trailer stopped locally and we were able to take a guided ride of almost 1 hour. I'm trying to like this trike, but both times I test rode one the bike had a "twitching" motion on roads that are not perfectly smooth and flat. Seemed like it wanted to "wander on its own". So, I'm not a buyer, now but maybe when I can test ride one that doesn't wander all over, I might just be a buyer.

I now have a Goldwing Tour DCT and love the bike. Before that I owned 4 BMW K1600’s. They were great bikes but I wanted to try out a DCT ‘Wing. I have over several years gone to Spyder dealers and taken test rides on the top tier bikes. I have always come away from Spyders with a negative feeling about them. Each Spyder I rode seemed to have a lag from gear to gear when shifting it. Do they still have that in between each gear up shift lag? I don’t understand why They don’t give the top tier Spyder a bigger engine with more power. 115 hp seems at bit lacking to me and why don’t they have a transmission that automatically upshifts similar to the Goldwing DCT?? The technology is obviously there why not employ it?? In most other respects I think it’s a great trike and much better than a trike with two wheels in the rear that fights you when turning. I could easily see myself buying a Spyder if they made changes to what I mentioned, but not quite yet. Rick H.

[@PeterLoweOne]

I think these are programmed to be different, but different doesn't always mean it's a problem. You do raise a good point about fully automatic shifting. Personally, I like the involvement of shifting, but I'm not sure why it only shifts down automatically, and not up.

No cup holders, squirrely front steering (any slight move makes it jump), why isn't the drivers back support not standard?, Apple CarPlay needs work (cluggy feel), Engine is awesome, very powerful, strong centrifugal pull force on turns (in direction away from turn) requires strong lean into turn, Nice floor boards for relaxed stance, tremendous storage options, Seats very comfortable, Moving windshield is gimmick, Gas under seat, whining sound from front end between 45 - 52 mph, needs more front lamps, stereo system is great (can hear it with helmet on and shield down), absolutely heavy (reverse is needed), really needs 6 feet width for any trailer travel to remote destinations (most trailer door openings are 5' 2" [although inside width is 5'8"). The shifter is weird, left thumb push shift (no need to let off gas), Reverse requires throttle up, Parking Brake warning for 20 seconds (REALLY?), Right foot brake is weird too (I kept looking for front brake along with shifter). It does not feel like a motorcycle!

I like both of those as well. But we're going to be over here enjoying this thing that you clearly don't understand or appreciate. All good. Thanks for the comment. 🤷‍♂️

@@PeterLoweOneI can ride bicycles, tricycle, motorcycle, and I can motortricycles. While I am older, I am not over 60, not overweight, and I workout daily. I took the cam am course because they are fun, and I don’t have to worry too much about leaning, skidding, or trying to prove myself to some young bikie on two wheels who thinks less of my choice. I am a safe driver who wants to tour with her husband without worrying about load dampening because I am a girls who loves her clothes, camping and just having fun. The young ones one day will be old. Cheers to the old, the disabled and overweight people for getting on a Can Am to have fun.

Just got mine yesterday. Carplay only works if you have comm system in your helmet.

[@PeterLoweOne]

Interesting.

[@peterpontinen9220]

Apple Car Play does not work yet!!!

[@kurtfirestone2761]

Can-Am needs to up horsepower and torque on the engine

[@PeterLoweOne]

I think it depends on the user. Generally doing that hurts fuel efficiency. I'd love to see them offer either a performance version, or even a hybrid version that would be a top of the line option for those who want more power or efficiency. A hybrid solution could offer both more power and more efficiency, but they're probably priced as high as most people would want to pay... So there's always that factor too.

I ride and this is a nice toy....but beyond my budget.

[@PeterLoweOne]

Mine too right now. But it's a toy worth dreaming about and saving for in my opinion. 🙂👍

@@PeterLoweOne Got to have dreams!

[@PeterLoweOne]

@@Doug-h2z Yup! 🙂

[@BakerStudiosIndy]

You are so focused on Apple Carplay, but no mention is made of Android Auto which would be of interest to at least half of us.

[@PeterLoweOne]

I don't mention it because they don't offer it. That's not my decision, that's Can Am's decision, so if it's an issue for you, a note directed to them is going to have more impact than one directed to me. There's nothing I can do about it.

[@BakerStudiosIndy]

@@PeterLoweOne I had to use my Google Fu skills and prowl their site to uncover the reason. It seems that Google no longer supports Android Auto on vehicles they classify as motorcycles. It seems that the good folks at Can Am are working on a workaround with their infotainment source for future release. So there is hope for us poor folks.

[@herrtomas6729]

Now that’s some toy. Really like to have a go…..

[@PeterLoweOne]

I'll be out on this and other versions of it this year. I'm really looking forward to sharing that.

[@jag1963]

Android??

[@PeterLoweOne]

I'm guessing you are wondering why they went with CarPlay instead of Android Auto? All I can assume is that there is a cost with licensing this software, and maybe they didn't feel there was a business deal to be made at this point? I'm not sure.

[@mikehayler2465]

2024 and still no Android Auto!. I will stay with my Goldwing

[@PeterLoweOne]

Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are usually negotiated separately with manufacturers. I don't have any insight as to why this has one and not the other. Maybe they spoke to Apple and not Google, maybe there were reasons why this made sense. Honda is a different animal all together, my guess is that a MASSIVE company like Honda, negotiated deals with both companies for ALL of their vehicles, Honda Cars, Honda Bikes, Acura etc, where Can Am wouldn't likely have the same negotiating power with such a small offering of vehicles that would benefit from CarPlay and Android Auto.

[@Bikerbug2020]

Android for Motorcycles was cancelled, now only Apply Car Play is an option.

[@gonzalosanabria2251]

Cruise control???

[@PeterLoweOne]

Yup

Snowmobile with wheels. Wouldn't get caught dead on it!

@@TheRealEric__1 The KZbin comments section is a fascinating place. I used to run a channel much larger than this one. I've seen it all. 🤣 🤷‍♂️

[@jimborthwick4103]

sorry you lost me at the apple car play the need both i am and android user not replaceing my phone for this

[@PeterLoweOne]

I didn't lose you, Can Am did. Each system has different requirements of the manufacturer, and CarPlay seems to be much more popular in motorcycles. I'm not sure if Apple makes it easier for manufacturers to integrate the system?

[@bohunter1949]

Who would want a ca-am? Nobody wants to work on them that should tell you something.

[@PeterLoweOne]

They're unfamiliar to regular mechanics who work on bikes or cars, but the Rotax engines in them are extremely popular worldwide in all kinds of vehicles, even airplanes. Your comment is an example of why people need to do proper research, and not just take the word of an internet commenter. It's like saying that electric cars will never be accepted by anyone, and at the same time seeing the Tesla model Y as the best selling vehicle in the world. Servicing these should be done by people who understand them, and I've talked to the techs at Torque Motorsports who service these all the time and have no concerns with them. Yes you need to talk to the right people, but when you do, you get the right answer.

[@thorstenduessler6101]

It’s a car with 3 wheels and no roof 😂😂

[@Cruizerstylin]

NOPE. Cars have steering wheels.

[@PeterLoweOne]

I think it's cool. Sounds like it's not for you, and that's fine.

[@TwinkleP-v9j]

Too much talking before getting to the facts. That Can Am cannot begin to compare to a Goldwing
