Thanks for the video. I watched your review before buying my 2015 Spyder F3S from the same dealer in Marietta. Four month and about 1300 mile of smiles so far.
+Jeff Smith We're happy you found our video, Jeff Smith. Sounds like you're enjoying your Spyder and even though the weather was real crappy the day we tested it, Atlanta has some wonderful F3S weather this time of year. Enjoy, ride safely, and thanks for watching!
Oh, stop, Bassmanwcm. You're making us blush! No wait. Keep going! LOL In all seriousness, we truly appreciate the kind words. Have you subscribed to our channel yet? If not, please consider as we can use all the help we can get! LOL At any rate, thank you again for the kind words and thanks for watching, too!
Just found one today that was in stock. 2015 F-3 S with the Manuel gear box. It is about 100 miles away in Wisconsin. It’s getting pretty cold and rainy around these parts. My have my buddy help me pick it up with his trailer in a couple of weeks.
I saw the ad on tv but just caught the last few seconds of it. I actually thought it was a 4 wheeler. (Sorry haven't had a bike in years and lost interest in it) But this looks nice and something anyone could ride. While looking this up, I thought that maybe they redesigned 4 wheelers so they couldn't roll as easy. That's an idea?
fridaykiss8521 It's definitely a great bike for a transitional rider --- someone who either has never ridden before or who hasn't ridden in a while. Steering is reminiscent of a quad (4-wheeler) and it has decent power and is pretty comfortable, too. 4-wheelers were always more stable than trikes (3-wheelers), but the tadpole configuration (2 wheels in front, 1 in rear) is proven more stable than the delta configuration (1 wheel in front, 2 in rear). Thanks for watching, fridaykiss8521!
The main reason I am thinking about purchasing a Spyder is due to my mother not liking 2 wheelers... That said I have looked at Spyders and I am very confused about the Law in California to ride one. Do I need a motorcycle license or driverse license to ride one???
fonite This is a question that a few people have had, due to the variances in laws from State to State. Hopefully, this link will provide a little more insight for you. We had referred people to the link in the comment below, but apparently BRP has changed it. Here is the new link that provides the regulations for each state: can-am.brp.com/spyder/shopping-tools/license-requirements.html. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
Hello great video but i have a question how fast can it go on the highways like does it atleast get up to 80 -90 mph and will this be able to keep up for long distance rides with other motorcycle
Nicole Hamilton While we do not know what the exact top speed of the Spyder F3 is, we do know that it will have no problem keeping up with other motorcycles, so long as they stay under your triple-digit benchmarks. This is not a sportbike, however, so if that is what you typically ride with (or are planning on riding with), they may leave you from time to time at stoplights. If you plan on riding more "maturely" and legally, then one of these would be just fine. Thanks for watching and comment back on here if you purchase one. We'd love to know your thoughts.
Our experience with the F3 was only on that rainy day, so we did not experience any discomfort from engine temperatures. Do you typically ride with leg protection, such as jeans or riding pants, or are you in shorts during the summer months? Leg protection can help in those instances (as well as those that are more tragic), so that may be something to consider if you haven't already. Hope you can find a solution that works for you and thanks for watching!
yes I do but when its 90 plus the heat from my Rss is so hot my wife finds it to hot for her too ride with me. So I was thinking about a trade in for this F3 and is why I wanted to know about the heat
Je fu Unfortunately, we did not experience the F3 in more "normal" riding conditions and we did not notice any extra heat on our legs. We also weren't sitting in back where we assume your wife sits. Our best advice would be to test ride one before making the switch. Feel free to comment back to let us know how you make out.
***** Thanks I had the chance of test driving one for like an hour I loved it and hope I can sell my 2012 RSS or maybe I will wait for a used one I own 3000.0 on my 2012 but they only want too give me 10k So I will wait to see if the price drops down this winter
+DerrickRose fanFORREAL The license requirements vary depending upon where you live. Assuming you live in the U.S., there are different requirements for each State. For example, Georgia requires a motorcycle license to operate a Spyder, but California only requires a car license. This site provides the regulations: www.spyder.brp.com/license-requirements. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
+Wayne S Every State in the U.S. handles things differently when it comes to motor vehicles, Wayne S. But it sounds like you're good to go. Enjoy that RS and be safe! Thanks for watching!
I WANT ONE..IT IS JUST WAYYY TOO DANGEROUS TO RIDE A 2 WHEEL BIKE IN MY CITY..THE TRAFFIC IS INSANE..EVERY SINGLE BIKE OWNER I KNOW IS EITHER DEAD OR PERMENATELY INJURED OR HAD A INJURY FROM RIDING HERE
Yeah, wasn't Chris' preference, but the Spyder F3-S handled it well. Thanks for watching, kingcurt 1997, and feel free to check out some of our other reviews!
+yaksportfish Well, the terminology used to describe this vehicle is all a matter of semantics and preference, we guess. While "trike" is a very accurate description for this 3-wheeler, many States still consider this a motorcycle, requiring a "Class M" license to operate it on public roads. However, in defense of your position, there are some States that do not consider it a motorcycle, requiring only a car license to operate it. We specifically asked Can-Am's representatives how they classify this vehicle and they did not have a specific term either. We appreciate your comment and thanks for watching!
+Zariah Holmes Well, Zariah Holmes, you do have a point, albeit a very small one. The Polaris Slingshot reportedly does 0-60 in "less than 6 seconds," so let's say a generous 5.5 seconds, and has a top speed of 130 mph. The Can-Am Spyder does 0-60 in a reported 4.8 seconds, with a top speed of 127 mph. We'd probably take the 0-60 time over the top speed on this one. However, as we stated, you do have a point. Thank you for your comment and thanks for watching, too!
Fantastic review! Thorough, well-thought out and very soothing presentation! You could be on the radio! Thank you.
Thanks for watching, Spyder Special!

I HAVE ONE VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION. DOES IT GET HOT ON THE LEGS LIKE THE RS? MY 2012 RS GETS SOOOO HOT ON THE LEGS ITS HARD TO RIDE DURING HOT DAYS
Our experience with the F3 was only on that rainy day, so we did not experience any discomfort from engine temperatures.

Great video! :D
Thanks, Renegader! We appreciate it. And thanks for watching, too!
Looks nice!
Thanks for watching, Dj Project!
this is epic
So whats better the f3s our the rss tell me i wane know
ivan ostojic, we prefer the sportiness of the RSS, but the F3-S was still a nice riding bike. And we think it looks good, too. Thanks for watching!
Disc brakes wear out in no time. A friend owns one and it is riddled with problems
this is a trike so why the hell do you need a bike license for this in OZ, I got a bike license and an 08 rs
+Wayne S Every State in the U.S. handles things differently when it comes to motor vehicles, Wayne S. But it sounds like you're good to go. Enjoy that RS and be safe! Thanks for watching!
I WANT ONE..IT IS JUST WAYYY TOO DANGEROUS TO RIDE A 2 WHEEL BIKE IN MY CITY..THE TRAFFIC IS INSANE..EVERY SINGLE BIKE OWNER I KNOW IS EITHER DEAD OR PERMENATELY INJURED OR HAD A INJURY FROM RIDING HERE
I do not like how it looks with 3 wheels. I would rather something with same aspect but on 4 wheels. 3 wheels looks weird to me
Jose Carlos Delgado anything else you don't like?
JET-SKI On Wheels.
+don1mega Ha! It sure looks like one. Thanks for watching!

Choke location
I dont really like the cruiser aspect of it. I like the older sport version
MVP Marine While we liked the styling of the F3-S, we're more fond of the RSS, too. Thanks for watching, MVP Marine!
Dont get me wrong, the side view looks amazing though.
IAM PERFECT!
Ai like very muchi
Its a trike.. not a motorcycle.

a slingshot is faster
