Our 2015 RT has carried us around much of the U.S. and Canada and has been stone reliable. I know that is no consolation to those who have had issues, but not all Spyders are problematic. I almost sprang for a new 2021, but when I thought about it being pretty much the same as my 15 under the pretty clothes I decided to keep what has been good to me. It will take some major upgrades to get me off my 15.
Speech to text; I drove my sea-to-sky into a wall and now it has some scratches on the rim. I also have been playing with the idea of buying a f3s as a second ride, and put some money to the side for that.
Unless they are doing an upgrade on the drivetrain, I will wait until they do something different or pick up a deal on a used 2020 or 2021 RT Limited. They really do look nice to me, and the wife is getting her license next month. I am hoping I can convince her that we need another bike.

The "tease" is on. Hope that the expectations are met. Bigger engine and some style/color changes will get my attention. Time will tell. 48 hours and counting.

2022 model announcement on Wednesday- any rumors or thoughts?
I a newbie on this board and have been lurking and learning for the past couple of months. I am a 72 year old relic who currently rides a Gold Wing and a Street Glide. The bikes are getting harder for me to handle (particularly at slow speeds) and I think my two wheel days are drawing to a close. I love motorcycle touring and hope I can make a transition to three wheels soon.
I saw where the 2022 models are being announced by BRP on Wednesday. I suspect there won’t be major changes to the Spyder RT so soon after the recent makeover but it will be interesting to see if there are new colors or an up date or improvement to BRP Connect.
What are peoples thoughts or wish list for improvements or updates on the 2022 bikes?
If they just dropped BRPC and added Car Play and Auto, it would be a worthy announcement. Even better if the firmware was available (even at a fee) for older bikes. But I don't expect it.

The picture in the teasers looks like a turbo Ryker to me. This picture defiantly looks like a Ryker with a scoop on the hood for an intercooler!
Is there a solid light under the headlights in the picture?????!!!!!!!!
I hope they offer more color options in the 2022 spyders.
Time will tell!!!
I thought they were going to announce the new 2022 spyder models in Oct.????

There replacing the Ryker Rally with the Ryker sport same 900cc motor same hp Can-Am Ryker 900 Sport is to feature slight revisions to the engine, mostly for the sake of emissions regulations

Looks like the new rumor is it has a hood scoop with a turbo under the hood!

I do have to admit the things that would make me upgrade to a new model RTL would be to fix the BRP Connect and add XM Radio. I don't think I have seen anyone here that has gotten BRP Connect to work the way it should. So I'm hoping year 5 they get BRP Connect to work.
Both the US Environmental Protection Agency and the California Air Resources Agency have approved the 2022 Can-Am Ryker 900 Sport along with the base model Ryker 900 they say 81.9hp at 8000rpm. so no turbo
As posted above slight emissions changes for the 900 and the 600 Ryker motors and the rally is no longer ….it is now a called a sport - expect exciting “bold new graphics” as the only changes on the full-size spyder lineup. A little bit of a bummer but we can’t have crazy cool things every year so probably worth the wait.

There's an after-market handbrake made by ISCI you can install.

Spyderpops LEDs on fenders, mirrors, saddlebags, top case and RT rear panel. Spyderpops Rock Guard. BajaRon Swaybar, Wolo Bad Boy horn, Freedom Windshield, Elka Shocks.
Based on the recent makeover of the 2021 RT line up...I am guessing it may be a new model Ryker. They have discontinued the Ryker Rallye in that line up.
The F3 is also getting a bit "long in the tooth."
