Can-Am Spyder Motorcycle
Equipped with a 5 speed pushbutton semi-automatic transmission, mated to a belt drive, the power of the Rotax V990 is more than ample to propel the Spyder to impressive performance levels. The added convenience of having reverse can also come in very handy. With over 100HP on tap, stopping ability is also very important. A powerful braking system along with ABS helps to bring the Spyder to a safe stop. A carefully designed and tuned suspension helps to give outstanding handling abilities. The Can Am Spyder takes many of the fun aspects of motorcycling and combines them with the stability and excitement of a high performance sports cars. This is definitely not just your typical vehicle!
