Can-Am Spyder

Just saw one of these on the road today, along with a lot of new 'vettes and Camaros. What do you think?

Saw a couple of those in at C.P. III in Sandusky which happened to be having Bike Week. I think they are pretty cool

I prefer to lean when I turn.

But, I think the Spyder is pretty sweet! Excellent alternative for some one that isn't comfortable on a two-wheeler(or, for that matter, even some one that is!). I've seen a few around Western New York, we have an awesome dealer in Akron.

I seen one also at a roadside ice cream stand. The rider looked to me like a crippled war vet the way he walked, his tatoos and the logos on his clothes. Had to hand it to him for having great spirit and finding a way to ride a bike (or trike) with his handicap.

Ive seen a few on the road, and heard a few things about them mostly good, except for the price...ill stick with my ninja for now, but a nice bike/trike! Definitely an eye catcher!

It is really cool. And if you're looking for something cool too, and much faster, take a look at the T-REX. The factory is about 130 miles from Quebec city.
