Can Am is practically begging people to test ride the Spyder.

The riding style took some getting used to, but I got the hang of it, the fun really began. Put a little faith in the suspension and it you realize it handles pretty well. And you can feel the front end working over the bumps. And it gets up and goes.

Problems I had were heat radiated onto my ankles. Not scorching but noticeable on a warm day. The brakes on the one I rode were just about done. Squeeling at every application. And that motor that went like stink was a little unruly. More backfiring than I would have expected. But the sound and the power when you wrung it out... Oh yeah...
