I have had a minor computer oriented bug in my RT Limited Edition since about the second week of ownership. Just last week I took it in for the second time and left it for them to check it out. Then during the same day I got sick and was hospitalized for three days. My spouse made contact with the local service and sales Department personnel, Roxie, Mark and Jim, explaining she would like to get it back home and out of their way. They discussed several ways and settled on having Rodney bring it home and she would return him to the service department. Rodney brought it home safe and sound, parked it in the garage for her and she returned him back to the service department. Believe me when I say, this is not your normal service from past experiences with other dealerships. Additionally, I have had to return it once since getting back to riding and they have bent over backwards to get me and my Spyder in and out in the shortest time possible. We were chasing down a computer-oriented gremlin and so far they have used a lot of gremlin spray to kill it but we are hoping the last treatment did it in. Thanks "everyone" for the excellent service experience.

I am 74 and in good health and just did not want to give up riding. This trike is very easy for me to handle and my wife feels more at ease than on the 1600 I traded in.

I am 74 and in good health and just did not want to give up riding. This trike is very easy for me to handle and my wife feels more at ease than on the 1600 I traded in. I would highly recommend it for someone who feels that two wheels is getting a little to much for them, and I feel much safer with my abilites with three wheels! Yes, its fun to ride after getting use to three instead of two. It is quite a bit different.

My son and I bought two Spyders. I prefer the manual shift, he the semi auto. Both bikes perform the same over-all. He had no motorcycle background and actually adapted to the steering faster than I did. My first hour on this bike I thought it was a mistake. It doesn't handle like a motorcycle. I rode it from LA, California to San Francisco the first day. I'm 64 years old and found the ride quite satisfactory. It's a great town and country rider. However, you can't ride it thru the twisties like a motorcycle, but it handles the speed limits fine. The more saddle time you get, the better you can handle the bike. At a thousand miles I like the bike. It will take a few thousand miles to love it.

After 17 years on two wheels and eight motorcycles, I bought a Spyder RS-S for my wife. So far - it's good - comfortable, fast and I think beautiful. The good: comfort for the pilot, good cargo capacity, good traction, fast in a straight line, doesn't fall over, easier to see then a bike, well made with tight controls, good paint and attention to detail. The bad: passenger foot pegs are cramped, takes a lot of effort to ride fast - got to hang on in the turns! If you ride two wheels - it takes some time to re-learn steering and brakes. Overall - a good alternative to a cruiser, fun, fast, easy to ride and enjoy the sights. Just don't try to hang with the local sportbike club in the mountains. It's a good touring platform. Oh - and the wife LOVES it.

I took a test ride today on the Can-Am Spyder RTS at the dealership in Bensalem, Pa. Their sales staff and service department gave me all the information I could possibly ask for. They were very knowledgeable and courteous. The cycle was tons of fun to ride. I have had over 45 cycles in my lifetime but never owned a three wheeler or trike conversion. This RTS is like a Honda Goldwing with an extra extremely large wheel. All the goodies on it were really cool and very comfortable and user friendly. I also have a 2009 Suzuki Burgman 650 which I purchased last summer and absolutely love it, also. I only have 1,900 miles on it so far, and would you believe it's my world's record for the most miles I have ever driven on any of my bikes ? It's true. I want to thank the entire staff at the dealership for all the help and patience they had until I was able to make my decision, which took two days to decide. After all, $27,000 is a lot to pay for a toy, but I deserve it. Again thanks to the person in sales and the head of the service department and also to the owner who I have known for years and always enjoyed shopping there. They also include a two-year warranty, including parts and labor. That is a real plus.

We bought a Can Am Spyder from a central Florida dealership and they helped us to arrange delivery to our summer home in North Carolina. Within a few days of its arrival, an issue arose with the starting system. Within one day of notifying the service manager at the Florida dealership, he made immediate arrangements to have the Spyder picked up and delivered to the dealer in Greenville, South Carolina, where he authorized the service manager there to do whatever it took to resolve the problem. As soon as it was confirmed that it was running perfectly, the Florida service manager quickly arranged for the Spyder to be returned to us in North Carolina. We cannot say enough to praise the dealership for their outstanding service and quick responsiveness and are thrilled now to be Spyder owners. We own many luxury vehicles including a Harley V-Rod, BMW Z8, Porsche Cayenne Turbo S and Porsche Panamera Turbo, so we appreciate good service.

Not only did my husband and I get great customer service when we bought our Can-Am Spyders, but we also made the most fun purchase we have ever made. Mine is a Spyder SM5, and his is a Spyder RT Touring. We now take our bikes on date nights instead of driving in the car. Our Spyders are great for driving to work, running errands, or just taking a nice therapeutic drive to cleanse stress. For anyone that thinks they can't ride a motorcycle, but love to ride ATVs, this is the purchase to make. It is like driving an ATV, but smoother, on the road. You will LOVE it!!!
