On the Spyder, there is nothing to correct so I looked like a drunk driver I am sure until I got used to it. Steering is very sensitive.

You can go the to Spyder Ryder website: BRP Can-Am | Spyder Ryder and find out when a dealer near you is going to be having the test rides. Those with out a motorcycle license was allowed to ride around a course they had set up. But not all states require a motorcycle endorsement for it. North Carolina does though. It is worth a look see.
My dad and I got pics of us sitting on the Sypder as well.

I gave a review of my ride in another thread.
