Can-Am Spyder 3 wheeled Bike

[Marsikus]

Idea for winter motorcycle )

[Winterstick549]

I'll take this three wheeler over any of those Trike Harley road toads. Two wheels up front is much more efficient and safer than having them in the rear. Less chance of rolling. These things are a helluva lot more fun than any car.

[Boozjee]

A trike w/ the two wheels in front instead of the back. I like the look. I'll have to ride one before I can make any judgements on power, maneuverability, etc..

[violet0313]

looks like a scorpion than a spider. lol

[KoivuTheHab]

I've driven several 100's of kilometers with this 'bike'. It's fun and relatively powerful but it's not good on corners, and it's actually rather uncomfortable on a swinging road as you can't lean. Better than a car but not even close to being as fun as a bike.

[gsmarcano]

a motorcycle for people who can't ride!

[Curveking]

power to weight of 350BHP per tonne means you can pass cars and 2 front wheels means corners can be taken faster than a bike.

[KoivuTheHab]

@Curveking That isn't true, the automatic safety system kicks in if you try to take a corner at high speed.

[robertmyers78]

how much



[Chonniesday]

WOW that is so cool thumbs up if you think so to

[Chonniesday]

Thumbs up if you want one

[kqr573v2]

These manage to combine the primary drawbacks of cars and motorcycles with none of their advantages.

[rohullah2006]

i wouldnt wave to this

[jahseedbeatz504]

I'd get one..they look tight.. & fun to drive.

[eyecandy88ful]

Nice looking piece of kit, but correct if i'm wrong, is true to say that a bike has (2) wheels.. a trike has (3) wheels.. and that quad has (4) wheels..so to me that makes it trike in my book.. does it not???

[iamkaven]

@eyecandy88ful uhm i call a 4 wheeeler atv a bike so i think this is a bike

[expresull]

for fear of motorcycles. :)) :)) :))

[kio76370]

this has never been a bike.

[stickwalker]

I like the look of this bike..

Where are they made?

[60viking]

I don't think this engine gets vary good gas mileage, they don't even mention it on there web site.

[wrabit79]

why people knock this but they won't knock those trailer trash 4 wheelers

[TheColdpress]

These things haul ass pretty well. When I first saw one I thought it was some kind of lame eco-thing. But it's not. Spyders are pretty cool. 

[ybarc2003]

its a beast.........

[Seyahhsod]

@DoItSoICanDoIt1st  $16,000 $20,000

[WaterReignFire]

I'm going to buy this hot shit

[Hampshire121]

Finally, for the handicapped and old people who are vertically challenged !

Thanks viagracycle !

[TheRaptor1122]

@Hampshire121 You cunt.

[shieldsuma]

3rd wheel opens up the road experience to more people and adds an element of safety since mostly everyone in a 4 wheeled vehicle is doing just about everything but focusing on driving. how is this a bad thing?

[HackHunters]

stopped video at 'it doesn't lean'. it's got to be uncomfortable turning corners.

[motanelustelistu]

Its not a snowmobile cuz from what I know a snowmobil doesn't have a reverse gear or does it?

[motanelustelistu]

ITs not a snowmobile cuz from what I know a snowmobil doesn't have a reverse gear or does it?

[Skorn89]

sooo.... pretty much a snowmobile but with wheels?

[eazyworldkilla2]

3 wheel no need for motorcycle licence yeah boy

[CarManiac82]

@eazyworldkilla2 another good reason to get this :)

[Kokosiak1]

The art of combining all the downsides of cars and motorcycles together :)

[Baseshocks]

@Kokosiak1 ahahaha ya, thats why they discontinued all the 3 wheel atv's they tend to roll.

[Darathath]

@Kokosiak1 HA XD

[RainAlpert]

Three wheels bike is not a bike but a trike!

[davejames4]

All these negative comments are amazing. I have a Suzuki M109R and now since Apr 2010. a Spyder too. They are both lots of fun just different. Suzuki is faster but the Spyder is still quick and is safer. I rode the Spyder yesterday in 32 degree weather with an occasional small patch of snow on the roads. . I wouldn't have taken the Suzuki out in these conditions.

[GrowlingVocals]

looks badass as fuck,but...only from the outside.whats new about it?its all the same internal combustion engine,the same wheels.whats the point in making this stuff?

[Sealy57]

A snowmobile on wheels. How ridiculous! I've seen very few on the roads, which speaks volumes about the appeal (or lack thereof) of this contrivance.

[poopwarrior8]

gonna suck when the rear tire kicks out

[hanky2112]

ok True story , I saw one of these on the side of the road and the tow truck drive was trying to figure out how to get it on the hook , True story.

[ronofontario]

must have one !!!!!

[Zgenator]

Safer unless a car hits you then its the same thing

[Miller6616]

If you are going to make a bike the size of a car ... what's the point ?! The whole point of a bike is to pass cars stuck in traffic jams or to zip along twisty country roads(general freedom) .This has all the disadvantages of a bike (vulnerability,open to the elements etc) and a car (Size and agility) with none of bonuses of either. I'm an ex-biker , paraplegic and my quad bike is smaller than this.

[Biesterman1]

@Miller6616 Its not the size of a car and is SUPER munuverable. You must never have rode one before.

[darksidehero]

@Biesterman1 and he never will baHAHAHAHAH

[TABUSINTACBOY]

@Miller6616 its not really that big...its like the same size as my snowmobile, which is much smaller than a car. would be some fun to take this thing out for a spin.

[125conman]

@Miller6616 I was told that it was aimed at older people who still wanted to ride bikes but didn't want to worry about falling over

[ArmenOfTheNorth]

@Miller6616 It's probably just about doing something that's different. Practicality is only part of the picture; some people just want to buy something unique. For them it's about novelty. Just look at all the impractical weird stuff people buy for home remodeling, car customization, etc. The people who run this company are trying to tap into that part of the market. And seeing as how they've been selling these things for 4 years, it looks like their gamble paid off.

[hodopoo]

@Miller6616 and why are you a paraplegic

this is way safer than a bike

[IWFJK]

@Miller6616 the only advantage is that its safer than a motorcycle. but other than that you pretty much got it right lol

[member548]

@Miller6616 I don't know where you live, but the majority of the US can't lane split. The Spyder looks easy to master, while few people ever get a knee down on a sport bike and a lot of cruisers have poor lean angles before dragging hard parts, so I doubt the agility difference is that great when comparing average riders, if there is any draw back compared to cruisers no matter the rider. Of course I'd stuff a CBR600 engine in a supermotoed TRX450R if the state let me over a Spyder.

[JayWilliamThompson]

@Miller6616 well if they had thought of that they wouldn't have made it, so your point is entirely unethical and something only a moron would say

[drango]

@JayWilliamThompson He has a valid point, just because you don't agree with it doesn't make him a moron.

[iamkaven]

@Miller6616 quad bikes arent aloud on highways, these are my mom whos gettin one needs one because whe has very bad osteoporosis in her legs and cant support the weight of a motorbike but she still wants to enjoy riding with me and my dad on ours

[marksevel]

@Miller6616 Perhaps one of the points of making this bike is so it's users are less likely to become paraplegics? This bike is inherently safer because it has three wheels. Of course, it won't give ALL of the benefits of a two-wheeled bike, therefore. The choice is up to you...

[toronado12345]

@Miller6616

...the point ? Power, SAFETY and FUN ! That's enough...

[airsoftmarxman]

@Miller6616 it has more safety than a car and its a head turner but ur right its probably not that agile

[Wiseion]

@dontstopsk8ing

i've worked on them in 2008 :)

[ParnBon]

My showroom has one for someone want to join our club in Thailand...Nice one

[killercrx91]

For $18000+.... Yeah not for me I rather buy a car for that.

[Tuxster3]

@killercrx91 So what.

[hashiriya85]

And also... @shadedude123... Anyone who is riding a bike of any kind...be it a rocket or otherwise...is NOT looking for a safe ride... Myself owning a CBR 900...I don't ride it thinking I'm riding safely... I ride it hoping some idiot doesn't do something dumb on my way home from work...heh...

[hashiriya85]

This thing is in all reality...a warm weather snowmobile...lol. Seeing as how...in all aspects of being...it's a snowmobile with wheels instead of skis...lol. So I guess if you like snowmobiles you'd like these...and if not...well...you won't... LOL.. I think we can leave this at one of those "LOVE/HATE" things...lol

[crimdell]

Too freaky, too ugly. Give me 2 or 4 wheels; either is ok. This must be for people who have a hard time making decisions.

[eckyspondoolie]

looks like fun

[spacemangoes]

Can I ride this with License C in CA?

[micropope]

@spacemangoes yes since its 3 wheeled.

[issamworld]

@spacemangoes This is at least 400cc I would say ,in Canada you will need a special permit and in quebec you will pay a robbery price for plaques and insurance. I used to pay 5times more fror my motorcycle than what I would pay for my Lincoln . The government decided that big motorcycles are at risk and should be charged more. We know this is only a pretext to charge people more. Because the real risk is not what you drive, but how you drive it. Let people enjoy life and stop taxing fun

[RTiger18]

bike/car/sea-doo

[corghhh]

just bought a 2010 spyder rs traded my harly for it.i live in florida this kicks ass and plan to do a lot of riding

[samszeman]

love to see someone fit between cars on that... stuck in traffic in the rain and can't get down the middle of the road . Pretty damn pointless.

[shadedude123]

@samszeman hey its safeer though

[GMTunerzVenom]

I want one!

[Mrjacobwebb09]

everybody talking shit bout the spyder is because you dont have pne or it cost to much..... thing is bad ass i own two of them.... i have had bikes gxsr 750 and blah blah thing is sweet fuck everybody talking shit

[connecttro]

[stadeli]

They should make the old 1970-80's three wheelers again

[4ftswells]

poor mans sports car is my cycle, but this poor mans sports car, ill wait till there 5 yrs old.

[BizzloJoyish]

This is just like the t-rex. Only the t-rex is better.

[myfleshdiesdaily]

@BizzloJoyish yea the trex is jus ugly to me. lol i would still roll on though haha. get maadddddd play

[generalleejesse]

its a three wheeler in reverse

[snipeurface54]

Can you drive the can am Spyder in the streets of Arizona?

[cristianoansome]

Pretty useless machine, it has the size of a car so not good at all in traffic and the dangerous of a bike. No thanks.

[gamerdj3000]

@cristianoansome actually, its even more stable than a quad, not as dangerous

[DRugfree1987]

cool but is it easy to flip.

[decliner2]

@DRugfree1987 No, this is a very stable machine.

[energeticlear]

how much is its top speed??

[decliner2]

@energeticlear 195 km/h

[gamerdj3000]

@energeticlear the speedometer says like almost 150-200 i think, ill check my dads next time im with him

[halo3nickproductions]

tank bike

[LRGHMN]

This is the answer to a question that never gets asked........

[craniumbluewolf4309]

this bike is sick

[JGuarrera61096]

there's one of these at a dealer near me... its so insane i wish i could have it

[shasha1873]

Well, how much is it?

[Tostito12345]

$15,000 US Dollars in California

Woa Wavusdavus I tough London is a very honest city ?

[jessiejames2012]

@Tostito12345 evrey time a saw 1 it had a for sale sigh on it and i saw a few

[BerserkerEos]

and how much it worth,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[wavusdavus]

Whilst waiting for my Seadoo to be serviced, the dealer insisted I take one of these for a spin.

Just awesome, I seriously wanted to put a deposit down. I live in London and don't have a garage, so it wouldn't last long parked outside my house before someone stole it!

[Kcdiddy]

Look like a jet ski a seadoo same company!!!

[jtogto05]

there no place to put your feet up fron afer 10 min you get cramps.

[germany7799]

not true my grandfather was the guy in the catologue and he got to ride it for the whole day, he said the only thing is its a very strange feeling and takes some getting used to because the vehicle does not lean, cornering is very sketchy because he is a seasoned motorcycle rider, its more for people who like to be stable and like to feel safer.

[RevoJer829]

its a really comfy bike, but dunno for a long ride

[sence1779]

this is awesome i wont one

[stregaboys44]

gangsta.

[utahutesguy]

wow never seen anything like it !!!!

[jchd1340]

cool

[shawnsknw]

Check out the Spyder at SK Northwest!
