Advantages of the Can Am Spyder
The Can Am Spyder is one of the most eye catching vehicles you see on the road. Can Am created this vehicle to appeal to the people who are looking for a motorcycle but are easier to operate. The Can Am Spyder is extremely easy to drive, the transmission is automatic and braking to all three wheels is done through a single, right foot brake pedal, just like in a car. Can Am’s original target market were the baby boomers who were no longer interested in operating a 2 wheel motorcycle due to stability or safety concerns but still wanted to have style and express their personality. This is still a large percentage of the Spyder owners but they are now attracting the younger generations! Can Am also makes the Ryker, a more affordable and customizable version of the Spyder. The Ryker is aimed at millennial’s who are interested in learning how to ride a motorcycle but prefer something that is easy to operate, affordable and will allow them to express themselves.

Better Traffic Visibility
A Spyder has a unique design and shape, one that is sure to catch your eye. This is a huge plus on the road because people will notice you! Most 2-wheel motorcycle accidents happen because drivers typically don’t see them, they are looking for other cars and/or trucks. With a Spyder you have a wider vehicle then the typical 2-wheel motorcycle, making it easier to see you. In addition, a Spyder isn’t narrow enough to fit in between cars that are driving in traffic, resulting in less crashes.
Less Swerving
On a Spyder you handle it much like driving a car. You use the handle bars (steering wheel), not your body. With a 2-wheel motorcycle, you ride it like a bicycle, you use your body and you lean as you steer.
Comfort
Spyder’s now offer extra-long touring floorboards to ensure the rider is comfortable for those longer rides. The seating features lower center of gravity plush rider and passenger heated seats. The suspension calibration improves riding dynamics. The superior wind protection allows for you and your passenger to put more distance between each stop on your adventure.
Balance
Spyder’s are more stable than a motorcycle and they do not require you to hold them steady at traffic lights. The stability definitely makes it easier to ride in bad weather or on sandy/gravely terrain than a motorcycle. In addition, a Spyder is less likely to tip over because it has three points of support. Extra stability can open the door to more people who would not normally be confident enough to experience the open highway.
Style
As mentioned before, the Spyder has a unique look to it. The design is full of rich textures and finishes along with premium LED headlights and full color LCD displays. Every last detail is unique and tailored with the rider in mind.
Support for the disabled
Due to health and/or physical issues some people are unable to ride motorcycles and that often times gets overlooked.
Support for the elderly
Helping keep a generation of born to run riders on the roads.
