Can Am spyder Trike reviews

I purchased the 2010 SM-5 in May and was immediately surprised by the handling and comfort of this machine. My biggest fear of the thought of a cycle falling on me is now non-existent. My wife and I can now enjoy the pleasures of the open road with peace of mind. I must also say that the dealership, along with the entire staff, are super people who truly display the art of customer service. Show less

Each year Can-Am seems to learn more about what riders want and what they left out of previous models. 2010 now has heat baffle to prevent leg burns. Off-market radiator seal to reduce engine heat should be a must. I would give this bike an outstanding review if it was not for handlebar positioning. Long rides will make you ache from leading over.

i bought my Spyder RT-S in St. Pete's, FL in Feb. and hauled it home to Pennsylvania in March. I got little riding in Florida due to lousy weather. I have put in excess of 2000 miles on it here in Pennsylvania. The hills and winding roads here have put it to the test, and it has passed with flying colors! Both the dealership where I bought it and the one in Pennsylvania have been good to deal with. I haven't needed road service yet and I hope not to need it. I highly recommend it for folks that will not quit riding! You will shock and surprise a lot of "hot" bikes with its power and speed. It handles roads here with great stability. It draws a big crowd everywhere it goes! Show less

I've wanted a unique bike but didn't want to put my safety in the hands of others. I commute to DC and ride some of the most accident prone, traffic heavy roads in the country and feel safe in my "cage" but never thought I'd be willing to take the challenge on a bike. Then I got my Spyder... A 2009 Phantom. I find it a complete blast to ride and feel very safe - that is except for the gawkers that are not paying attention to the road and trying to catch a look at the bike. I've had no mechanical issues with the Spyder but have some concerns with the more than average problems others have experienced. I do what maintenance I can myself but since it relies on computer controls for steering, braking and stability control, I still need to have a dealer do the more complicated stuff. I've done quite a bit of customization myself - some for show and some for comfort. I added a 2" riser bar for a better driver position. I've also added floorboards and a Corbin seat for comfort. My wife loves riding the Spyder and we spend more quality time together since I bought it. I am very pleased with the performance and plan on being a Spyder Ryder for some time. Show less

I don't miss the old motorcycle at all. This feels so much safer, and with the trunk and side bags we can carry all we need or want. Stability is fantastic. Show less

Hi I own premier edition #186. I believe I am the first if not the only Ecuadorian with one of these babies. I recieved my Spyder In November of 2007. I have over 7K miles on it so far. I use it to go to work sometimes for weekend rides and trips, jaunts to friends houses. I have owned 23 motorcycles in my life. This one happens to be my favorite ride. It is different but actually funner than a two wheeler. The reverse gear makes it incredibly agile within town, making it my favorite Urbal Assault Vehicle. I love my Can AM Spyder.

Very unique piece of equipment. Made me want to ride on motorcycles again. Made the changes that motorcycles should have made many years ago. Show less

I have had my SE5 almost a month and I love it. I have ridden it just about everyday. I bought a frogg togg rain suit the day I got it, because I knew I wouldn't want to stop riding. It was a great choice for me. Show less

I recently made a trip from Martinsburg WV to Camdenton MO to participate in a charity run for the USO at Ft Leonard Wood. Logged almost 2000 miles and LOVED my Spyder. Unfortunately, I got a VSS Fault message outside Indianapolis on my way home. Turned out my dealer had botched the install of my electronic cruise control and my HID lights. After being returned to stock config, I was able to resume my trip home. Still, I am happy with the Spyder...wasn't the bike's fault!! Show less

This is the best machine ever!!! Great performance and comfort. This bike is a real head turner. Loving every riding minute. Show less
