Can Am Spyder – and you thought trikes were for kids!
by Marc in Motoring
You might be forgiven for thinking “What the hell is THAT?”. The answer lies in the manufacturer – Bombardier Recreational Products are better known for quad bikes, jet skis and snowmobiles. The Can-Am Spyder is what happens when you take that pedigree and apply it to a road going vehicle.
It has three wheels, so technically it’s a tricycle. That’s where the resemblance to your childhood toy ends though…
What we’re looking at is a 998cc V-Twin DOCH engine that pushes out 106hp. In car terms that’s not a lot but the Spyder weighs nothing so that power is good for a 0-60 time of under 5 seconds. Sounds like a hoot!
The three wheel layout gives it stability in the corners, you get nice fat tyres to stick you to the road and ABS comes as standard. Plus you get power steering and an electronic stability package to keep it pointed in the right direction.
You can pick one up from Adrenaline ATV – a snap at £16K!
