Not really a motorcycle.. but ... 2010 Can-Am

My kid sells them Malcolm Smiths dealer and Ive got to ride them twice. I cant imagine someone that rides a bike taking to one of these. I guess if your other vehicle is a crown vic you could get pretty excited by the spyder. Its not a bike nor does it pretend to be a bike, most of the people that my son talks to about them says they would never ride a bike out of safety concerns but feel that not having to balance is a major safety benefit.  They seem to be selling well though and have a riders club that is based at Malcolms so to each his own but I would put a side car on a bike first if I had trouble with my legs holding up a bike and for those mostly worried about balance..... Wow are you in for a suprise in so CA traffic.GFL

I am not into trikes, but if I had one that didn't lean the two wheels would be out front.  This makes the most sense for cornering.

Definitely people who don't "get it."

Holy fuckin thread resurrection batman!!       Went to the local can am dealer for a demo, this thing is a blast (rs) model,  while I would not give up my 2 wheelers for one of these This is fun in it's own right. Reminds me of railing 4 wheelers around the pasture when I was a bit younger.   Anyway the dealer prices new and used models to me all under book, I said thanks and left. 2 days later he calls and drops the prices on the used models a LOAD actually at wholesale, said going into winter and he needed operations cash more than inventory. I bit, took home a 09 RS, in beat me red.  I don't think I can get hurt if I want to sell it later, in the mean time I,m having a blast.  bete.

Spyders are absolutely motorcycles.  They're not bikes.  They're trikes.  (bi = 2, tri = 3).  "cycle" = wheels.
