Hello all:

I just have made several molds for testing the designs on function and liability. Due the increase on work, I am a bit behind the testing at this moment. I hope to get it done before the temperatures goes up. The aluminum heat shields are already in productions and they are working fine.They separate the Oil-cooler, Exhaust pipe and Oil reservoir and gives them a better heat exchange. For' "RT" I have made nothing. Regards, Marcel. P.S.

Thank you so much for the many e-mails .

I am considering buying a C.A.S. and so I found your video thoroughly interesting. I am a qualified truck mechanic by trade and so I understand everything you claim in your vid and totally agree with you. Instead of turbo charging the engine for increased power, the engine would be way better if the air filter intake was more efficient and effective than what it currently is. It is a wonder that the engine can breathe at all! Surely BRP would have had a sprocket and chain drive system firstly?

Well this was very informative this has changed my mind about these bikes

Mostly nitpicky things. Why is the brake fluid leaking in the first place?! If you fixed the leak, then it won't spill all over you frame.

Another thing you said was about the "wrinkles" in the frame. I'm not a mechanical engineer, but I used to work with a bunch of truck frame designers who were. They were designing frames which collapse on impact. They do this by adding places in the frame which folded. I'm not sure it is the case here, but that could explain it.

@SilverSurfer410 Agreed, just away to make money off people who think there is something wrong with their bike or design. My spyder runs fine and I have no overheating issues. As you said a water cooled engine doesn't need much air flow, not to mention most car engines with much more power are enclosed and sourrounded by crap and give off a lot more heat and they are fine. And if you leaking or spilling break fluid it's going to corrode now matter if it's in a car or bike.

Good Review

Marcel, the Spyder is a water cooled engine. I have had NO heating problems at all. The main Drive Pulley and Drive Belt is a weakness but, lowing the tension to 220lbs and checking it regularly is a great help.

It may make some difference for all to know that Marcel describes this bike as a Spyder RT. It's an RS. The backrest and yellow fenders give it away. I would also add that I don't have any wrinkles in my frame. Finally, he talks about the 'second cylinder being 'surrounded by stuff' and can't do heat exchange. Well, it's a water-cooled engine! It doesn't need that much air around it. The heat exchange is done by water.
