#REDIRECT [[Can-Am Spyder]] {{R from merge}} |
||
The '''Can-Am Spyder''' roadster is a brand new vehicle made by [[Bombardier Recreational Products]] that will be released in Q4 2007 or Q1 2008. Similar in layout to a modern [[snowmobile]], the Spyder uses a [[motorcycle]]-like chassis with a single rear drive wheel, and two wheels in front for steering. |
|||
There has been a new company that launched in San Francisco, CA called Spyder-Rentals.com where a Can-Am enthusiast can rent a Can-Am Spyder roadster for a day with unlimited miles. This would be a great way to experience the unique aspects of the Can-Am Spyder roadster before buying one as well as a great way to tour San Francisco sites. The website is www.spyder-rentals.com |
|||
==Features== |
|||
The motorcycle-like price and performance of the Spyder is combined with a significant set of safety features, such as [[traction control | traction]] and [[stability control]], [[antilock brakes]], and the stability of a three-wheel layout. In most US states the Spyder is licensed as a motorcycle, though it is much easier to achieve proficiency and confidence with the Spyder than with a motorcycle. The Spyder also comes with additional convenience features such as simplified braking (front and rear brakes are both actuated by the same foot pedal), a true reverse gear, power steering, power assisted clutch, and an optional electronic automatic transmission.<ref name=c&d>{{cite journal |url=http://www.caranddriver.com/previews/12485/first-drive-2008-brp-can-am-spyder.html |title=First Drive: 2008 BRP Can-Am Spyder - Previews |journal=Car and Driver |date=February, 2007}}</ref><ref name=edmunds>{{cite web |url=http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/Drives/FirstDrives/articleId=119581 |
