Finished the Kancamagus today! I rode the Goldwing and my wife rode the Sea to Sky. For the last 2,541 miles (started in Texas), I have been on the Goldwing and my wife is following me on the Sea to Sky Spyder. When we got to our hotel, we decided to run to dinner. We left my wing and took her Spyder. Keep in mind the last 2,500 miles I have been on the Goldwing. Wow! What a change! The Spyder is so much more comfortable; not even comparable! Great video, Chris!
I have enjoyed your past videos and look forward to many more in the future. I would like to comment on this video and suggest that when riding down the Kancamangus Highway your talking about other items was a distraction. What I am saying is sometimes please relax and take a break from talking and let everyone enjoy the ride and amazingly beautiful scenery.. Keep up the great work Chris.
I do remember you bottoming out when you pulled out of that Cemetery! It was in one of your earlier videos but I do remeber seeing some very strange looking graves in that area. I think you are right to say shaftdrive and ground clearance would most certainly be a big improvement to the Spyder.
There is already a Spyder wave. It’s three fingers down instead of two or thumbs, index finger and pinky with the two remaining fingers folded up, à la Spider-Man shooting a web.
Can Am needs 3 things to refine the RT. Shaft drive. No question about the need for it. Dumping the belt drive, moving to a single sided swing arm and having 4 lugs on the rear wheel to enable tire changes or flat repair removes a big problem. Get rid of whoever is in charge of displays and infotainment. Find a proven pilot interface provider. Apple, Tesla, shoot even Ford or Toyota makes better stuff. And it should come turn key with ACP, AA, and Garmin map updates for life. And for God's sake, dump those stupid Kenda tires. You have "J" rims that will accept auto tires. Contract with Michelin, Conti, or Goodyear and give us something that lasts longer than 6 or 8k. NO ONE WANTS A LONG TOUR INTERRUPTED BY 800 DOLLARS WORTH OF TIRES AT A DEALER.

Great video, Chris!
What an adventure!
Really beautiful scenery Chris!
Liked, will have to watch it again to get it all as I was disturbed a lot during the time I watched the video.
Cheers from an aiport hotel in Sweden
Safe travels.

I understand. I’ll keep that in mind. Perhaps I can add a little music during periods with no voice.
The Kang Hwy is a great ride, especially on the Spyder
It really is!

Certainly if Can-Am wanted to offer an off road model of the Spyder.
Your camera settings look good to me.
Thanks. I think I’ve found the sweet spot.
I would love if the RT had a shaft drive, I live 2 miles back on gravel road, so I ride a BMW R1200 GS for now.
You need to invent the Spyder wave, hand flat, wiggle fingers like a spider crawling…only between spyders…
Funny!

How far are you from Warner, New Hampshire? I have a cousin there and i delivered cargo trailers near there. Like the videos 👍
I was just in NH for a 24 hour vacation. I live in Niagara Falls, NY.
Beautiful state
Can Am have launched the Canyon model for mild off road use. Trouble is it has less storage than the RT, so puts me off, touring and camping.
I feel the same way. I like the idea of the Canyon, but it’s not for me.
What stat consumes the most ice cream per capita?
No idea.
California- Camera settings. Put the frame rate at 60, ND filter and Frame rate minimum of 100 and your film speed ISO at 100 to 400.
They say "you don't NEED a helmet"...wow.
Were are u.
I’m home in Niagara Falls, NY, right now.
Chris there is nothing wrong with one more look a the girls in bikinis.

Solid suggestions. I believe they’ll revise at least the RT in 2026. Let’s hope for some big improvements.
